NES2 VI - Last Semblance of Order.

so Spain is at civil war now?
 
I mean, is his word more powerful or less powerful. I guess Im basically asking how big Catholocism is in this world. I would assume its about the same or more because of how strong Portugal & Spain are, but Ive assumed things before and....it didnt end up well

Well, in France, due to Henri's reforms and tolerant policies, the Huguenots weren't slaughtered, and our empire currently has a lot of protestants in it (WOODEN SHOES!) so Catholicism can go poo.

You know what, I have other plans in mind. Consider Afghanistan open.
In that case, I'll take them. No fears Das, as since I'm not a rebellion I should be much more active.
 
From: Kingdom of Brunswick
To: Union of Krakow and Republic of Sweden


Yes, you are totally right. I suggest that we unite together in an alliance to defend against any aggrossor and to support each other in all areas.
 
TO: His Royal Majesty, The King of Denmark-Norway
FROM: His Royal Highness, King Julien-François I of the French


The alarming rate at which our European rivals join together is worrysome to us, and we see that it is worrysome to you aswell. France would like to offer a Garuntee of Independence, and a defensive alliance, if the Danes and Norwegians would so will it.

TO: His Imperial Majesty, The Tsar-King of Russia-Lithuania
FROM: His Royal Highness, King Julien-François I of the French


France and Russia, though we have certaintly competed in the past, have much more to gain from one another than fighting each other. Our interests coincide in many more places than where they clash, and we believe that our two nations can work with these interests to benefit the both of us. We wish to expand our relations with the Great Russian and Lithuanian Union, and it's citizens.
 
whew, talk about entangling alliances
 
King Charles V, left his palace on the afternoon of March 3, 1740. His blanket of security, expanded after the recent republican uprising, surrounded him. He continued his movement done London’s main street, where a dwindling crowd gathered to view the monarch. Charles was unpopular among the people, blamed for the poverty and instability in the British Isles. Dissent continued to grow throughout the ranks of the government, as parliament supporters continued to separate themselves from the king.

Charles continued to find himself more and more isolated. He and his handful of advisors would run the nation, ignoring the plight of the people and the future of England. Conspiracies continued flourish, defections occurring daily. Charles’s sons began to distance themselves from their father.

Sunset was approaching as the king passed by the river Thames. Outside the old Parliament building, he paused to watch the sunset. Something was happening. A few of Charles’s bodyguards approached the monarch, and told him they are must be moving along for his safety. Charles complied, knowing that recent unrest was explosively dangerous. Slowly they moved across the bridge over the Thames, their every move was watched by rebels in nearby buildings and disguised as citizens. They knew that they had to make a move; it may be their only chance.

The signal, a woman dropping a pot in the road, was seen by one of Charles’s bodyguards. His name was Alexander Thayer, a double agent. He rubbed his arm with another body guard, and so he alerted another. The soldiers halted the king’s carriage. Surrounding citizens took notice.

“What is the meaning of this delay!” Exclaimed the king.

“I’m sorry father.” And Prince William stabbed Charles with a dagger…

It has come to our attention the Chinese displeasure at France's rightful protectorate over the Kingdom of Siam. We understand that the Chinese nation feels threatened by our projection of power, yet we feel oblidged to console you by stating that we have no current conflicts with you or your people. Therefore we propose a 5-year NAP. However, violate our territorial integrity and we will respond in kind.

To France
From Qing China

Qing China will accept France's offer of a 5 year NAP.

OOC: I declare thlayli the most desperate player in this nes so far ;)
 
A Change of Leadership, continued

Charles fell out of his carriage, and his crown rolled along the ground.

‘The King is dead!....’

William was struck down by a guard, and soon chaos broke out as a number of the royal guard defected. When the dust settled, a dozen laid dead including Charles and William.

News of the assassination spread like wildfire, as uprisings spread throughout London. The people were taking to the streets, uniting under a common banner. In the old Parliament building, rebel leaders gathered, along with royalist representatives. After days of debate, they came to an agreement. The Monarchy’s powers were to be limited, and Parliament was to reconvene. The government was to be based on the constitutional monarchy system of France. This act of compromise they hoped would bring England together and unite them on their road to rebirth.

King James I, took the throne, as representatives from the provinces repopulated the Parliament building. A new era in England began.

Nation Background: Ever since the Portuguese help in the 16th century helped Abyssinia defeat the Sultanate of Adal, the two countries grew closer and closer together. This was particularily helped by the Jesuit Pedro Paez and his disciple, the Abyssinian emperor Susenyos, who helped convert much of Abyssinia to Roman Catholicism. Portuguese assistance helped defeat Monophysite rebellions; in exchange, the Abyssinians entered conflict with the pro-Turkish Sultanate of Sennar, though it was mostly limited to border battles and minor raids done by both sides, thus far.
