Imperium Off Topicum - The Enlightenment

@Dem- We had a soveregn Sphere of Influence there, and you cannot destroy the Pirating bands, if you take our base in the Caribbean we'll just find another base. Jack Sparrow always wins.

Stay out of it please. Its a territory dispute, let it be fought out. Brazil isn't active anyway, so you'd be fighting for nothing.
 
You can hardly say they are inactive when they have posted earlier today. We consider the Brazilian Sphere there to be more legitamate. Maybe we cannot destroy the Pirates themselves, but it is certainly possible to destroy the Nation they have created. We will however, not yet commit to anything, as we are still awaiting the Swedish Government's response.

Bring it on! We love plunder!

Or rather, stay in your own hemisphere.
 
The King has yet to Hear word from Sweden, and so is forced to make a decision Without his allies advice. We dare not wait longer. (as I am going to Sleep, and may not be back on before the next update) As such, the King has issued a Declaration of War upon the Pirates of the Caribbean. We shall immidiately Begin our Attacks, in defence of Brazil's right to the Territory of Peru. :ar15:

The Empire Mourns​

Our Padishah, His Imperial Majesty, Sabruddin Mohammad Khusrau Shah, has been stricken with a mysterious fever for the past week. He was exhausted by years of fighting, and broken by the tough struggle in Arabia. Today, he died among his troops near the Antiochian border.

He shall be remembered as the Monarch who rescued the Empire, a great conqueror who reunited Hindustan and unified the Persian lands.

His youngest son, Prince Daniyal, has been accompanying his royal father on the Antiochian campaign, and was chosen at his father's deathbed as the next Emperor. His two elder brothers were known to have objected, but both have recently died from unnatural causes.

Prince Daniyal has despatched messengers to the Antiochian forces, requesting an armistice.

The Second Battle of the Guyana Coast showed the world the sheer fury of broadsides of cannon. The rumble of the guns still echoes across the waters, blood leaking from the scuppers of the brutally mauled ships on all sides. The shattered remains of the Allied fleet must now try and regroup and reinforce.​

Automation:
Qing constructs 3 armies, 1 3rd Rate, 1 6th Rate, and sails her fleet to the North Philippines.
Japan upgrades the Philippines to lvl2 and builds a 3rd Rate and a 6th Rate at Japan.
Hindustan repairs their battlefleet and upgrades India and Siam's shipyards, then constructs a 3rd Rate in the Bay of Bengal.

Diplomacy:
America invades Pirates!

The Pirates managed to sink the Invisible and the Fortune, and captured the Negotiator, Prophet and Portsmouth. The HMS Cunning was, however, able to escape the fight. The Rhino, though it struck its colors, was recovered by the other ships in the task force.
The British and Brazilian forces managed to force Rhino to strike her colors - even if temporarily - and drove Frolic, Dancer and Garbage Scow into withdrawing from the battle line with immense casualties and damage.
The Brazilian Fleet has ceased to exist.

Jack Sparrow surrenders, you guys win this war. What are the terms of peace?

Presuming America invaded simply to protect Brazil, we will surrender North Brazil and we will pay 1IP for each of our territories America has under occupation.
 
If you are willing to talk peace, we would like our ships returned to us. If not, We shall happily hit you with all the Might we can muster.

Very Well, we agree. We shall exchange 1IP for the Lost Ships.
