@Double A, if you want to get in the war, and send in orders this update for a war, probably should declare war on whoever you're declaring on. Otherwise, I'd recommend you declare war in the first year you send orders, if you are getting involved.

 

[SouthernKing]

In defense of our ally Britain, and for Spain and her allies' deceit regarding the Colombia affair and Portugal's blatant imperialist motives, Hungary declares war on Spain.
We encourage the rest of the Krakow Pact to follow suit.

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

Serbia and Georgia hereby follows Hungary and declare war on Spain.

 

[Mickzter97]

A declaration of war on Spain is a declaration of war on Portugal.
Portugal is at war with Hungary and it's allies.

OOC:

Likewise, I will be joining as New Spain with the next update.

Since things have gotten (even more) interesting and I caught up with the updates faster than I thought I would, I'm joining this turn.

To: New Spain
Agreed, you have construction rights for the Joao and we will not sell it to the Mayans. We hope a friendship will blossom out of this.

To: Portugal
From: New Spain

We are pleased that you are willing to do business. We will pay the full amount next year.

OOC: -redacted-

 

[Haseri]

In solidarity with its allies in the Krakow Pact, and in the interests in national defence, Poland declares war on Spain.

CC: Portugal
FROM: Empire of Brazil

It shames us that our motherland has fallen into the hands of traitors, cowards and imbeciles. It is to be known, that in the Year of our Lord 1905 the Brazilian imperial family will be dropping the name Braganza and will take the local dynastic name of do Brasil. Our ties with the Portuguese monarchy, our cousins and sons of our own Pedro I the Liberator, is hereby ended. The Brazilian Emperor Joao II do Brasil will not sully his name or the name of the Brazilian people by carrying the name of the Portuguese monarch.

From: Naples

We are happy your King is going to come visit us in Naples, we are looking forward to his visit.

OOC: I will be forwarding previous diplos with Milan to you via PM.

To: The Papal States
CC: The Pope
From: Naples

We will NOT shut down the press. The people of Italy deserve the right to get their words and opinions out for everyone to hear! You can threaten us all you like but the fact of the matter is we will stand behind our actions this year.

 

[Double A]

To: like, everyone
From: Peru

In support of Spain, Peru declares war on Brazil. Twisting rather trivial actions into something far more dastardly and impacting to justify war should never go unpunished.

 

[Luckymoose]

So Peru has betrayed their alliance with Brazil, Colombia, Paraguay and Argentina. OK. Peru will lose everything.

To: All belligerents
From: Flanders

Now that the war has expanded beyond the Atlantic sphere, and appears to be becoming as much a land war as a sea war, Flanders is reminding you all of the treaty you singed at Calais, that is:

Spoiler :

Article 1: Ambulances and military hospitals shall be recognized as neutral, and as such, protected and respected by the belligerents as long as they accommodate wounded and sick. Neutrality shall end if the said ambulances or hospitals should be held by a military force.

Article 2: Hospital and ambulance personnel, including the quarter-master's staff, the medical, administrative and transport services, and the chaplains, shall have the benefit of the same neutrality when on duty, and while there remain any wounded to be brought in or assisted.


Article 3: The persons designated in the preceding Article may, even after enemy occupation, continue to discharge their functions in the hospital or ambulance with which they serve, or may withdraw to rejoin the units to which they belong. When in these circumstances they cease from their functions, such persons shall be delivered to the enemy outposts by the occupying forces.

Article 4: Inhabitants of the country who bring help to the wounded shall be respected and shall remain free. Generals of the belligerent Powers shall make it their duty to notify the inhabitants of the appeal made to their humanity, and of the neutrality which humane conduct will confer. The presence of any wounded combatant receiving shelter and care in a house shall ensure its protection. An inhabitant who has given shelter to the wounded shall be exempted from billeting and from a portion of such war contributions as may be levied.


Article 5: The material of military hospitals being subject to the laws of war, the persons attached to such hospitals may take with them, on withdrawing, only the articles which are their own personal property. Ambulances, on the contrary, under similar circumstances, shall retain their equipment.

Article 6: Wounded or sick combatants, to whatever nation they may belong, shall be collected and cared for. Commanders-in-Chief may hand over immediately to the enemy outposts enemy combatants wounded during an engagement, when circumstances allow and subject to the agreement of both parties. Those who, after their recovery, are recognized as being unfit for further service, shall be repatriated. The others may likewise be sent back, on condition that they shall not again, for the duration of hostilities, take up arms. Evacuation parties, and the personnel conducting them, shall be considered as being absolutely neutral.

Article 7: A distinctive and uniform flag shall be adopted for hospitals, ambulances and evacuation parties. It should in all circumstances be accompanied by the national flag. An armlet may also be worn by personnel enjoying neutrality but its issue shall be left to the military authorities. Both flag and armlet shall bear a red cross on a white ground.

Article 8: The implementing of the present Convention shall be arranged by the Commanders-in-Chief of the belligerent armies following the instructions of their respective Governments and in accordance with the general principles set forth in this Convention.

We also urge caution in the use of the new Chemical and Gas warfare weapons.

In accordance with the articles of the Triple Alliance, Denmark hereby declares war on the above nations. May the tragedy of the Reusachtig never happen again once Brazil is stripped of its hostile capacities.

To: Spain
From: New Spain

We do not forget Brazil's contributions to New Spain. As such, this is an official declaration of war against the Empire of Spain.

TO: New Spain
FROM: Brazil

We are proud to call you friends and allies. The Peruvian betrayal hurts all free nations of the Americas, but your stance of friendship helps hold democracy together.

 

[Double A]

ooc: You never PM'd me.

 

[Luckymoose]

I didn't know you were taking Peru. You should have PM'd me, the alliance leader.

You will still see the Joao Cruiser by your ports

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

To: Peru
From: Ecuador

Due to your blatant aggression against the peace loving nations and obsession with remaining linked with the oppressive emperor of Madrid, we hereby declare war.

 

[Double A]

I didn't know you were taking Peru. You should have PM'd me, the alliance leader.

It was only mentioned at least three times in the past day.

I didn't know we were allied, I thought I was neutral.

 

[Tyo]

I'm signing on as the Maya Republic.
