concordat
Significado: A formal agreement between two parties, historically between the Vatican and a secular government, regulating matters of mutual concern.
Concordat is most closely associated with agreements between the Roman Catholic Church and sovereign states — the Lateran Concordat of 1929, for instance, established Vatican City. In broader modern usage, it can refer to any significant institutional agreement, particularly between bodies that might otherwise be in tension. It is rarer than 'treaty' or 'accord' and carries connotations of diplomatic formality and mutual concession.
