The Treaty of Metz was the agreement reached between John Frederick and his party with the Prince-Regent Gereon of Oren in the summer of 1526 during the wake of King Guy of Oren's death. It effectively accomplished the decade-spanning plot of Charles Henry Horen and his Polycarp Plot, leading to the Horen Restoration and the re-establishment of the Holy Orenian Empire. The treay itself guaranteed amnesty to all Savoyard forces and the establishment of their autonomous realm within the Empire, while in return for their loyalty and the ceasing of all hostilities.

  • The total end to the conflict between the Imperial forces and Savoyard partisans.
  • The total surrender of the City of Felsen to the Holy Orenian Empire, along with the transfer of the title Crownlands officially to John, Holy Orenian Emperor.
