To: Austrian Empire
From: UCSA
Perhaps you need to study your history. Texas seceded because of... pretty much no reason. (OOC: flyingchicken just felt like taking Texas) But the Confederacy was formed due to armed conflicts between the Northern and Southern States not just for banning slaves or changing ideology. The Confederacy wasn't going to secede if it were not for that cursed John Brown and his raid at Harper's Ferry, killing many Southerners because of their Abolition movements. We did no such thing to Texas, but instead, asked them, twice to rejoin. And their response? "Bring it on like a man", they said. I acquised to their request, and Mexico joined in, pretty much declaring an armed conflict. Perhaps your thesis research was flawed, or just that Austrian historians are just lazy.
You say, "there are [sic] is [sic] no threatening [sic] to our words, [sic] there is only delayed action". Does that mean you declared war on us? Good job; point one for the one who feared that WE might start world war, and UCSA, zero. Getting competitive for blood are we? But alas, WE are not bloodthirsty nepotist, prepared to send millions of youths to die for your stupid cousin's equally stupid decisions to help the Texans. I'm sure your men must be simply thrilled to babysit your cousin more than 5000 miles away from home for many months, or, most likely, several years.
