Capto Iugulum

[spryllino]

The Confederation votes for Amsterdam.

The Confederation highly congratulates the Dutch for their long dreamed-of unification, and we hope that it brings them great and lasting prosperity together. We would like to confirm that - so far as we understand - we are now the close allies of the whole Dutch nation. (OOC: By the way, I think it ought to be something like the United Netherlands; Frisia is a little daft. )

 

[christos200]

Ecuador votes for Constantinople.

I wish to discuss terms of peace with you. Reparations will cost 110 IC, payed over 10 turns; plus I ask for the Kurdish land and fleet back.

To Roman Empire
From Kurdistan
You must be mistaken; Turkey declared war upon us, not us upon them. I will try for peace with them now in the form of reparations and returned land, but if they do not wish to accept, I would like to know if you would help me end this quickly. (OOC: and I would like to continue this discussion privately if Turkey declines my offer).

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

To: Kurdistan
From: Turkey

We have no desire to give up the land of our brothers and we will not enter any negotiations not involving the liberation of our homeland. We will accept your offer of paying us 110 EP over the course of ten years, but must insist upon the return of Turkish lands.

 

[SamSniped]

To Turkey
From Kurdistan
And here we reach our problem. That land is rightfully Kurdistan's, as per the border set with the Chaldean-Kurdish Treaty (which is attached).

 

[Azale]

OOC: Do army doctrines mean anything?

Also, good to see the West Floridians racial animus for the proles just end

EDIT: And without me knowing! What a strange turn of events for me! I should have done the ToW secretly too, really gotten the jump on everyone.

 

[christos200]

From Ecuador
To Peru:

We offer you peace. You will leave Ecuador and pay 100 EP's for 2 turns.

 

[Mickzter97]

Hungary votes Amsterdam. Congratulations with the unification of your nation!

From Ecuador
To Peru:

We offer you peace. You will leave Ecuador and pay 100 EP's for 2 turns.

From: Peru
To: Ecuador

As Mr. Acero himself has clearly stated Peru believes it can win due to Peru's and Colombia's superior numbers and materiel. Regardless, I must commend the Ecuadorian regime on having mildly confused our government.

[TheLastJacobite]

OOC: I have more brigades than the top 5 nations in America put together lol

 

[SouthernKing]

Jacksonia votes Amsterdam, and congratulates the Frisians on unification and the Floridians and the Negro Proletarists on peace.

 

[christos200]

As Mr. Acero himself has clearly stated Peru believes it can win due to Peru's and Colombia's superior numbers and materiel. Regardless, I must commend the Ecuadorian regime on having mildly confused our government.

You either order your troops to give me back the captured Ecuadorian territory, make peace and give me 100 EP's for 2 turns or I shall wipe out your army.

OOC: I have more brigades than the top 5 nations in America put together lol

OOC: Granted, Peru being the strongest is a bit of an abberration which will soon be corrected I believe, but yeah... gratz! The Americas relies too heavily on the oceans imo, it makes revolts more difficult to deal with.


Peru votes Amsterdam.

To: Spain
From: Peru

We will be sending merchant ships to dispense help evacuate refugees if you have any need.

 

[Jason The King]

I'll take Kongo. More to come soon.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Hail Scandinavian brother! Vinland here, we have some unresponded diplomacy waiting for you once you've briefed yourself to the situation. I should also be available to talk about our relationship, if you'd like.

 

[Bair_the_Normal]

OOC: @Grandkhan As much info about the current status of India as possible would be great! And no, I don't know 'bout any money to pay.

IC:

To: The Empire of Spain
From: The United Principalities of India
We repeat and stress that we are indeed willing to send any non-military aid, and yes, we do support you fully in your effort to reunite Spain. However, any state of war, or any direct military name, even in name, is not favorable to us currently.

 

[spryllino]

@JTK: The Confederation is defensively allied to the Imperial Kongo government, and also to the Workers' Commonwealth. We have been using our influence, as far as possible, to prevent any attempt by Empire or the Workers' Commonwealth to take over the other, and, in case of such attempt, would use our power to back the other.

 

[Lord of Elves]

I'll take Kongo. More to come soon.

Oh bloody hell

From: Workers Commonwealth
To: Vinland
We appeal to you not to address the Kongo Society regime in any capacity, as we have agreed it lacks legitimacy for its refusal to negotiate any terms or reconciliation whatsoever. It would deeply damage the currently tenuous relationship (or so we are told) between Old Stockholm and New if Vinland were to conspire against the Fatherland with the traitors in Christinestad.

 

[ZeletDude]

A name with 'Netherlands' in it probably makes the most sense, as it refers to the geographic area of the low countries. That's just my opinion. There's some useful history in here, and the term 'Netherlands' has been applied to all of the low countries at several points in the past.

United Republic of The Netherlands it is then

To: The Confederation
Yes, we can confirm that our previous alliance commitments are being carried over into the new state.

It is our hope that the new leadership of the Kongo Society may be more amenable to cooperation than their predecessors.

OOC: That name is much better.
