The Prussian King Friedrich today declared:
"We announce the fruit of our diplomacy: Further to the words of our glorious Kaiser, after a pan-germanic conference in Saxony it has been resolved that it would be in the best interests of the German people to divide the cities of Germany between our two administrations. To reinforce the friendship of all the German peoples an alliance between the Holy Roman Emperor and ourself is to be signed. Further more, an alliance of mutual co operation
between the Kingdom of Prussia and the Russian Empire is expected to be signed today in Moscow. We announce support for Russian claims to the city of Helsingfors in the interests of our mutual security.
We are united with our allies in a desire to combat the scourge of the heathan turk on the European continent and congratulate the French for their conquests in Africa. How long can the evil Sultan AI be allowed to threaten the very future of Christianity?
Despite kind offers of alliance we have decided to remain in a state of friendship and peace agreed with Great Britain. We have also extended our hand of friendship to the new French government, but have so far received no response.
Never the less, our military analysts predict that the coming nineteenth century will bring the dawn of a new era of peace in Europe"
His speech was unfortunately cut short by a fit of violent coughing

However, i notice that the savegame appears to be on King difficulty level
i assumed we would be playing on Prince?
