My dear Jefferson,
As I look over our glorious lands, I notice that our plans are progressing nicely. As you know, this is not my favorite part of nation building, but my time will come soon enough. These peoples who call themselves native Americans to our west will surely feel the bite of my sword first. Ah, but I digress. Our current state is strong, but I see several discrepancies from our earlier layout. Not to worry, I will do my best. My only real concern is the number and condition of our troops. This is no way to incite fear among our neighbors! Our men are armed with pointy sticks, and in many places, clubs! We also have settlements with nothing defending them but the farmers and their tools. We are training many farmers, but not many fighters. I think I shall change the training orders, and we will perhaps institute what I affectionately call F.W.A.T. sooner rather than later. In the year called 690 bc we build a new settlement, named Orlando, FL. The next year, 670 bc, sees two more settlements for your glory. Both Palo Alto, TX and Santa Fe, NM are constructed. In 630 bc, I get dispatches from afar, telling me that Lincoln has started some silly project he like to call the Oracle. Does the fool not know that his resources are better spent elsewhere? In 610 bc, I make a trade with the fool, figuring he needs all the help he can get. He gets the secrets of money, and in return shows our scholars how to build things like walls, and aqueducts. This must be something g special indeed, as our scholars start incoherently babbling about nonsense such as Sun Tzu, and trebuchets. Really, where do we find these men? Are they the best the Confederates can muster? Isabella forgets her manners and tells our man to be destroyed or leave. No matter, I tell him to withdraw, making a mental note that she needs lessons on being a lady. The French people have founded a settlement they call Besancon on our side of the marshes and jungles to the north. It is rapidly becoming time to secure our borders. In the year of 550 bc, I decide to retire back to my farm, though there is much to report. I fear the treacherous Aztecs have designs on part of our lands, as they have moved units to Orlando. I have a settler pair headed to that same area. The next settler should probably settle in the the forests outside Albequerque. If the Aztecs do indeed decide that they want to mess with us good ole boys, I would probably advocate signing the Maya on to help, as we have insufficient defenses ATM.
Yours,
Stonewall Jackson

General P.G.T. Beauregard (no relation to our scout BTW) has arrived on the scene, with reinforcements still arriving including 2 vet Sword Regiments under BG Thos. J. Jackson, and an Ancient Cavalry Regiment of Col J.E.B. Stuart. These forces are fully available, if only for lack of an enemy to fight! I am including a picture of our current situation. 
I always need more!
