LAD #6: Washington's Proclamation of Neutrality

War has been initiated between Austria, Prussia, Sardinia, Great Britain, and the United Netherlands, America is to stay neutral during the war. America will not become involved in the conflict and will instead watch from a distance while the feud is settled outside of their power. All citizens of the United States are to avoid breaking the agreement to stay out of the war (neutral). If any citizens go against staying neutral and do aid other countries in their fight against another in the war, they will no longer be allowed protection under the United States of America. Persecutions among people who break neutrality have already been set in place, so this is simply a warning to the citizens to truly stay out of the matter. They must respect that this is not their battle to fight, and therefore will be punished if they forget that simple fact. Washington has already signed off on the agreement to remain neutral during the war, a document he signed in Philadelphia on April 22nd, 1793.
