Hurrah, the main stats are up!

Damnation, the tech stats are still under construction! (Seems like I hit the max size for a workbook, so I need to spend a bit extra time restructuring that doc. It's not critical, but annoying.)

French Ultimatum to Austria-Bavaria

For too long have you held rightful French Speaking lands and people under your autocratic dictatorial rule. This affront to liberty and human rights has gone on for far too long, and now is the time for their liberation!

The Communard French State demands the following concessions from the Austro-Bavarian State:

1. The Return of the regions of Alsace, Lorraine, Burgundy, and any other French speaking territories currently under Austrian Control.
2. The creation of a Demilitarized Zone West of the Rhine River continuing until the new French Border.
3. Austria-Bavaria will sign a Treaty of Non Aggression with the Communard French State.
4. The Austo-Bavarian Military shall not exceed the size of the French Military for 5 Years
5. The elimination of any and all debt of the French speakers who are currently living within the Austro-Bavarian state

Failure to comply with all these demands within 24 Hours upon receiving them will result in a break down of French and Austrian relations and we will have no choice but to declare war on the Austro-Bavarian State for the Liberation of French Workers within the Austro-Bavarian State

From the Russian Foreign Directory
To the Sublime Porte

We are making plans for investment into the North Black Sea Region, which is shared between us. Our interest is simply in strengthening our major export-hub in Odessa, not in interfering with Turkish-controlled Crimea.

We appreciate the transparency and forewarning.

Diplomacy:

From Austria-Bavaria
To Communard France

In accordance with our charter of princely rights, we have passed your ultimatum to Duke Georg-Eugene I of Elsaß-Lothringen, and his response was short, but too rude to be used in formal diplomatic communication. Please do not bother waiting for another 24 hours and, if you truly wish to spill human blood, as we are sure all Communards crave, proceed with your declaration of war. We will meet you in the field upon it.

From Austria-Bavaria
To North German Federation

Our nations do not have defensive alliance, and we do believe we will be able to win this war on our own, but if you wish to establish true fraternity and friendship between our nations, your help in the war against French Communards would be considered as a significant gesture of friendship and goodwill.

From Austria-Bavaria
To Hungary

We are still not interested in an alliance with your nation for the reasons we have explained before, but we would be open to a non-aggression agreement, if you wish to start working toward changing our views.
 
From : The Italian Republic
To the World


Italy hereby announces that it has agreed on an Pact of Non-Aggresion with Austria-Bavaria. While our two nations may not be friends, we are certainly not enemies and we will not waste our people in useless bloody battle against each other. This agreement is valid for the next ten years and can be prolonged at any date, if both parties desire so

Signed by the President of the Italian Republic and approved of by the Italian Senate

Note: We shall finish the construction we started in Northern Italy last, but like we already stated, we do not mean those as aggresive gestures.
 
From Austria-Bavaria
To the world

We confirm the non-aggression agreement with Italy for the period of 10 years.
 
FAQ - Part 6:

Can I declare war on a smaller nation and just stay in the state of war for the sake of mobilization bonuses? You can declare war on whoever you want, but mobilization policies are given only when the nation is fighting a large war that requires serious efforts and threatens the nation in some way. In other words, if Sweden declares war on Baganda, neither of them will get the bonus. Same applies to declaration of war by Burma on Gran Paraguay.
 
As Austria baravia controls territories that are rightfully part of Hungary, we Demand that you make these concessions to us or we will be forced to invade you and take them by force.
You cannot win a 2 front war. accept this and you will be able to focus on fighting the French.


1. Vienna and land north of that up to the border with the north german federation will be given to Hungary.
2. Graz and all Austrian land east (Not West) and south of that will be given to Hungary.
3. 25 Mc, 200 Hc, 25 ic, and 40 ec will be given for free to Hungary
4. An agreement that Austria baravia will never attack Hungary
5. Austria will cut down its number of missions to 4 and will never go past that limit
6. Klagen fort and all land east and south of that will be given to Hungary.
 
From Austria-Bavaria
To Hungary

You are the shame of the House of Hapsburg. Archduke Otto Franz has promised to personally avenge this insult to Your "Majesty" in a duel, once this war is over (or, if he is lucky, while it is still ongoing). Meanwhile, on behalf of the Princely Confederacy, we reject your demands. Go ahead and declare war if betrayal of the dynasty and alliance with godless Communards is what you truly want.

We spit at the mention of these "Princely Rights" while you ignore Human rights, and make a mockery of them. To you the people, the workers, are nothing more than servants and subjects, beneath you, not worthy of rights. This notion that nobility, capitalists, and oppressors have more rights than the people is one that you surely hold dear. We say to hell with this notion. France stands for Human Rights, for Workers Rights, for the People's Rights!

Duke Georg-Eugene shall hang from his own battlements for his crimes against the People and the Workers of Alsace and Lorraine!

To War it is then!

Vive France!
Vive la Commune!
Vive la Révolution!

Workers of the World Unite!

This is absolutely absurd.
 
As Austria has refused to give me the lands that are rightfully mine, I am forced to declare war on them.
 
Russia condemns Hungary's blatant opportunism. It calls upon the nations of the world, in particular Hungary's ally in the Ottoman Empire, to join it.

Hungary is asking for territory that is almost entirely German and never was part of the modern Hungarian state or the historical Crown of St Stephen. This territory includes Austria's capital of Vienna. Britain has more of a claim to Paris than Hungary to Vienna.
 
From the Office of North German Federation
to the Kingdom of Hungary

Your actions have forced us to condemn your actions against the German state of Austria, with your unreasonable demand for so called "Hungarian" territory, which apparently now includes Wien to the amazement of our historical societies.

We expect your ambassador and your embassy to pack their bags and leave within the month. We are recalling our own.

From The Sublime Porte

To the Porto-Brazil Twin Crown
CC: Maghreb, Egypt, Oman

The Sublime Porte, along with Maghreb, Egypt and Oman, demands the immediate withdrawal of all Porto-Brazilian forces, assets and personal from the Arabian east coast. The Sublime Porte, Maghreb, Egypt, and Oman will not accept their Arab and Muslim brothers to be dominated by European colonialists. If the Twin Crown does not immediately comply with this demand, they will be made to do so.

Signed, Grand Vizier Hakan Vefik Pasha, Ottoman Empire

To Hungary

While we intend to honour our defensive pact, we will not join into a war of your own making. We highly suggest you seek a peaceful resolution.
 
May I join as Egypt?
