OK, party people. Please keep this civil.
That means no name calling (and yes calling someone a redneck _can_ be insulting)!!!
Let's get this thread back on track, I do not want to have to edit the heck out of this thread, but I can. And will if it does not calm down.
OK, warning done, debate away!

I have gone back through and done a mild clean up of this thread to clean it of some rants, insults, spam, and personal attacks on former CCP employees.

Just to clarify things, since I've been asked to do so:
Khanid II recognized Jamyl I as the rightful Empress of the Amarr people and dropped any claim he might have on her throne.
The Khanid Kingdom and the Amarr Empire now enjoy a mutual defense pact.
The Khanid Kingdom retains its de facto independence, but is a de jure vassal state of the Empire. Or, otherwise, Khanid II is technically a subordinate to Jamyl I, but otherwise runs his Kingdom exactly the same way he did prior to the whole agreement.
The Khanid Family has a seat on the Privy Council.
I'll leave it up to future revelations and player theory crafting to decide why exactly this whole thing was agreed to, but I believe you should be able to read between the lines to figure things out.

Personally, I can't understand why the enormous gain in power that comes with regaining a seat on the Closed Council of the Privy Council is being underestimated.
It is also rather likely that the development actually strengthens Khanid's rule within the Kingdom. He is confirmed as the rightful Holder of the Khanid Region. He is confirmed as a King in his own right as ruler of a Kingdom of the Empire. The reunification-minded subjects of the Kingdom cannot be anything but happy with the development. The religious-minded subjects are most probably rather happy about it all. Those who stayed absolutely loyal to Khanid have that loyalty endorsed by the Empress of Amarr as in fact loyalty to the interests of Holy Amarr all along.
There are other factors in the whole arrangement but I know who I think the overall winner in this is in terms of Amarr power dynamics.
I would underline, in addition to Eterne's useful summary, that the news piece containing Jamyl's speech on this matter is a rather key piece of PF (indeed the whole arc of which it forms a part is for the Amarr/Khanid relationship). And I would note that the Amarr are not a people to waste words or make throwaway remarks. They tend, at this level of high politics, to choose their words carefully and with intent.
Another example is the very careful way in which Khanid II is formally "Lord Councillor Khanid" when sitting as a member of the Privy Council, as opposed to the other House representatives who are styled as "Royal Heirs".
