Option B: Those who violate the treaty get chocolate pudding for dessert.

Can you come up with a better solution? It’s not a high bar to clear.

anyone capable of starting a war will be dead 100 years later, you are quite literally talking about punishing people who had nothing to do with it.

solution: Abolish the nation state and anyone who isn't involved gets chocolate pudding for dessert.
