We thank you for your kind words. However, do not think that this means the relations between our countries are restored. The Cuban rebels were clearly trained in the British tactics, armed with British weaponry and funded with British money (as well as support from certain individuals in the United States of America), so we hope that there is a good explanation for all of this.

Perhaps it is time for you to stop being too prideful and instead think of the good of your nation. We are willing to support the possibility of your continuing with this Rivera Scheme of yours, but only if you are willing to accept all Spanish businessmen back and compensate them for the money lost while they were out of business. We will try to convince our businessmen to collaborate, given that it possibly opens new ways of business for them.

We want to make it clear that we distance ourselves as much as possible from the Cuban rebels, as should be evidenced by our lack of involvement this past year. We have never supported the aim of Cuban independence and were indifferent at their uprising and pleased to see their downfall.

This blockade is damaging and inconvenient to the both of us, and we agree to your terms. We will agree to pay 4EP in reparations to the businesses and businessmen we evicted, as well as allowing them to return, in return for
i) your ending the blockade,
ii) allowing the Rivera Scheme to be built and open new trade opportunities for all businessmen, including Spanish ones, and
iii) attempting to convince the Spanish businessmen currently in New Spain to cooperate with the United States of New Spain and end their legal action.

I don't like the idea of anyone being able to build my ship designs. I think ship designs should only be producible with permission.

I must say I feel the same way
Well here's the deal. Unlike in the modern day and most of the twentieth century, ships are not all identical to each other when they are part of the same class. I use the class system ONLY because it's easier than dealing with hundreds of different, named ships. All these ships are individually built in unique manner, and thus ALL are different from each other. Therefore, if someone is building "your" ships, they're only mimicking the design in terms of point emphasis in their own harbors. The Naval Quality requirement is due to the ability of a nation to have actual shipyards capable of achieving the mimickry required to create ships of a similar vein.

High mobility, low cost, low naval quality requirement.

If you think 19th century naval warfare is all about the biggest ships with the most guns you can go right ahead and waste your money.
Most of my knowledge of naval warfare at this time comes from Total War, the Civiapedia, and like 3 battles in the US Civil War, so I'm kind of just applying the tactics that worked for me in other eras.
So it would seem I am totally lost.

This is about the 40-hour warning to get those orders in.

We hope that this is the start of a great friendship between our nations. We also hope that General Scott works as hard and fast as possible to minimize the disturbs and problems that his access to power may cause, as well as eventually restoring the civil power he was forced to take over from last year.

We too hope this will repair the tarnished relations between our nations as of late. We can assure the Spanish that the turbulence will be resolved as quickly as possible, to the best of our abilities. After the war, we will work to create a more efficient civil government.
