To: All involved in the Second Venetian War
From: Empire of Holy Spain
We wish to ask of you that you stand down in your current positions and not act in a warlike manner. This goes for everyone involved in this war. We would like for representatives of every nation involved in the Second Venetian War to meet somewhere so that things may be discussed in a civil manner, instead of having to resort to gun and sword. We are sure that there is something that can be done that may satisfy both sides of this war, much like it has happened with the Treaty of Santiago that has ended the War of the Catholic League.
In order for both sides to gain something, we suggest that Austria frees the city of Venice and the western half of the main Venetian land to re-establish the Republic of Venice, and Austria keeps the rest. That way, Austria keeps a direct access to the sea and Switzerland, Two Sicilies and Milan have nothing to complain about, given that Venice will recover its freedom.
To Spain, Papal States, Switzerland, Naples, Milan:
From Austria:
We would be willing to reestablish the independence of Venice on the basis that it would remain a city-state. All former Venetian lands would continue to be held by Austria, and Venice will not be allowed to place any tariffs on Austrian goods.

TO: Holy Empire of Spain
FROM: Empire of Brazil
And so it is that we come forth with our discussions on the future of our diplomatic relationship. Our two empires will enter a mutual alliance of defense in South America, protecting our sovereign territories from outside threats and working closely together in other ways to ensure this alliance holds true for decades to come.
Thus Pedro, Emperor of Brazil, signs the São Paulo Accord legalizing the above mentioned alliance.

From Milan
We will stand behind Spain's proposal, that Venice is reinstated as a nation, and that Austria is allowed a corridor to the sea.
