The Treaty of 21185 was a three-way treaty in the GalactaConflict universe between the Caasuri, the Gaians and the Varran. It is named after the star system Lalande 21185, an equal distance from all three species's homeworlds. It describes provisions that prevent aggression in and around the area, and also certain other provisions to ease relations between hostiles.

It was signed in the year 2117 by the League of the Commonwealth, Atlantic Northwest Union, Northern EuroAsian Nations, East Asian Front, Black Claw, Bottom Tooth, Yellow Crest, Royal Eagles, Southern Hawks, King Falcons and Eastern Mynas.
