TO: United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland
FROM: Empire of Brazil

The Brazilian nation, after years of diplomatic liaisons, finally proposes an acceptable edition of the Treaty of London 1837. A treaty of great friendship, reopening of trade after the war for the first time, and the moving forward of relations between our great nations. The following points have been agreed to in this treaty for stability and economic growth:

1. The nations of Brazil and Great Britain shall have, from this moment forward, opened trade and with reduced tariffs to facilitate the growth of industries in our ever freer markets. British merchants shall no longer be molested in their efforts towards the Empire. As such British investments in modernizing the infrastructure of Rio de Janerio will be accepted as a grant of goodwill to the Brazilian people.

2. Britain and Brazil shall enter into a pact of neutrality, never to conflict with one another in interests in the form of military exercises, nor via the funding of enemies of either party. This pact only conflicts with direct wars and indirect wars, and as such does not conflict with Brazilian or British prior alliances with other nations so long as those alliances are defensive.

3. Extension of point two is the defensive alliance to be signed between the two nations, excluding conflicts with the Holy Empire of Spain, of which Brazil is already in defensive alliance with.

4. Permanent embassy for the British nation is to be built in Rio de Janerio, as a sign of goodwill and friendship, as will a sister embassy in London.

5. If the spirit of the treaty is broken by either party, the offending nation receives only one warning before the treaty becomes null and void.

@EQ: Keep the Issues of Concern, please! As Circuit says, it is important to know what kind of things may rock the boat too much or what things we can do to improve the situation! (I just wish I could stop seeing "Independence" as the main Issue of Concern in Cuba, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico and Yucatán)

Seeing as we don't believe this was covered during our land sale deal a couple years ago, Hungary would like to request that Austria formally renounce any claim to Dalmatia.

We are proud to announce that there is to be a royal wedding later this year, joining King John IX of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, together with Princess Adelaide of Brandenburg, daughter of King Charles II. The wedding will bond the House of Hohenzollern and the House of Hanover together, although local ties already exist within the Kingdom of Brandenburg.

King Charles II is proud to see his beautiful young daughter of 23 years marry a man of such character as the King of Britain. Although her rather liberal views are rejected among many in the Brandenburg court, there is hope that this wedding will bring a new era of good relations between the two kingdoms. We are told similar sentiments exist in the court of of King John IX. Many see this as ushering in a new age for Brandenburg and Great Britain.

The wedding will be held at Westminster Abbey on June 4th, 1837. The guest list has yet to be determined.

King Mikhail II sat around his advisers thinking thoroughly about his nation in such danger, with the spread of liberalism and nations moving away from monarchies to the change in military style and the Cossack raid.

Finally Mikhail II rose from his seat and began speaking, "Look, our nation is in no situation for a change in government. Kiev cannot afford to move toward reforming it's entire government style while the Cossacks are threatening so much as it is. No, what Kiev needs is a strong leader who will lead them against the Cossacks and retake the lands which we had lost and will protect the people of Kiev! I will take it upon myself to lead Kiev against the Cossack threat and regain safety and security within our borders to grow and strengthen this nation to something great!"

The advisers talked amongst themselves for a few moments then looked back at their King and all nodded in agreement letting him know they fully supported this decision. Now they just need to wait to see how the people of Kiev take to this bold declaration from their King.

For the less observant of you, the update is a bit early this time. Therefore this is the 48 hour warning.

To: Whomever it may concern
From: The Republic of the Netherlands

We are deeply concerned about the Burgundy-Orleans war and we offer to mediate the conflict. Perhaps the following terms can be considered adequate by the warring nations?

Spoiler :

* The Kingdom of Orleans concedes defeat in the war
* The Kingdom of Orleans agrees not to rebuild or construct any new fortifications along their border with Burgundy
* The Kingdom of Orleans agrees to remain neutral in any future conflict involving the Kingdom of Burgundy
* The Kingdom of Burgundy agrees to respect the sovereignty of the Kingdom of Orleans in all issues except for the issue of border fortifications

Orleans would happily agree to such a treaty if Burgundy would.

From Paris
To Normandy, Orleans, Poitou, Dauphiné, Burgundy

Unless peace is made this turn, we will declare war on Normandy, Orleans, and Poitou.

To: All French Nations
From: Empire of Holy Spain
We wish to ask you that you make peace before this war destroys your nations. Much like the Republic of the Netherlands, we are willing to offer ourselves as mediators in this war.

From the Kingdom of Normandy

As I've said, I'm willing for this war to end more-or-less status quo, and any minor concessions to be made for peace by either side is fine. As Orleans have already stated last year, as the Merchants of Poitou cry, and as the Crown of Burgundy falls on yet another shoulder, the time for peace should come now.

To All the Kingdoms of France
From Normandy

Looks like everyone but Burgundy wishes for peace. Dear Regent of Burgundy, this war was prosecuted by the young King Louis; can't you see the danger it brings to all of us, the hope it brings to the liberals, and its utter uselessness? The Entry of Paris will destroy the lucrative trade routes as that of Poitou did to those of the Loire. And the entry of Dauphine will decimate the trade of the Rhone. Unless you secretly wish for a great liberal revolution, you will agree to be reasonable, like the rest of us (including your ally, Paris) and agree to mediation. We only have two weeks (days until orders are due) left.
