Re: Colonial Trade

I would like to sign with you some official legislation/trade agreement to allow better access between colonial markets, my ships can bring you the necessary laborers to cultivate the your new lands and then leave full of the local product, such an arrangement should bring much wealth in all our pockets.

What are the terms of this agreement?

 

[Nuka-sama]

Rejoining as the Netherlands

What are the terms of this agreement?

No definitive terms, we simply ask all factions to pass necessary laws to allow merchants to work with the minimal hassle, it is in no one's interest to have ships wasting days in ports awaiting for approvals and paperwork to load or unload cargo, in the end that lowers the amount of money made by all involved.

To Ming Empire, Japan
From Mughal Empire

There is a parable popular among the Hindu's here.

There are two stoats by a river they have just caught a fish and are quarreling over how it shall be divided. A fox comes along and offers to solve their dispute. He first cuts the head off the fish and gives it to one stoat, and he then cuts the tail off the fish and gives it to another stoat. Then he runs away with the middle of the fish taking the choicest parts of it for himself.

The moral of the story is that when two brother's fight the winner will be the third party. While the Hindu's are infidel they are a wise and ancient people and we would all do well to follow their wisdom.

Yes, Japan would seek an amicable close this dispute and set the world aright once more.

To the Emperor of China

Will not the great Ming heed the wise words of the Mughals? Or does the almighty Ming rashly take his land and the peace of Asia to war for trivial bits of land less than an iota of what he gains aganst the Moghals?

We fear the wrath of our gods if we deny them the gift of suffering they have bestowed upon us with one hand and the burden of Hawaii they provide with the other. Do you not see the work of Heaven in what has transpired?

Edit: OOC Your translators have perhaps led you astay. There is perhaps more to discuss. Your previous post was not seen by the Japanese prior to the above.

Perhaps the Hawaiians could be jointly developed and managed by partner nations?

Perhaps Japan would give up any interests in the Asian mainland (of which we have but a bit).

Perhaps our holdings in the northern reaches of Mongolia would provide an "unexpected" base for your war?

To: the nations concerned
From: Venice
Venice hereby declares its withdrawal from the Franco-Spanish War, and any other conflicts. It is in the best interest of the nation to become completely neutral in the world scene.

To: The Papal States
From: Venice

We need to repent for our sins and are willing to become a tribute state, for your gracious protection. We seek refuge in this hostile world, and we seek clarity.

 

[Sheep]

ooc: skizzik, I feel I should offer you an apology, but the dice rolls were not in your favour, when you needed them the most. I would not begrudge you moving to another nation if you chose to do so.

To Venice
From Milan

We shall accept this peace treaty if you drop the word Venice from your nation name and also accept our annexation of the territory that was formerly yours and now is under our control.

 

[Condor_green]

i would enjoy being apart of this are there any openings?

Yes, take the Ottomans!

 

[skizzik]

To: Milan
From: Former Venice
It is a pleasure that you accept our peace, and the conditions which you mention are completely fair in the spectra that you are the victor.

To: The World
From: Former Venice

Our Venetian roots have ended and we accept our fate as it is. We also acknowledge that with these changes it is seemingly unfit for our nation to be called “Venice”. Rather we would like the territories of Naples as Sicily to be know as the “South Italian Confederacy”

I have updated the player list..... the nations without players are free.

To South Italian Confederacy
From Kingdom of Sardinia

Will you recognise our independence.

 

[Neverwonagame3]

OOC: Great update as always. Keep up the good work.

To: Spain
From: England

We have to decline your offer of a royal marriage at this point of time. While we continue to sympathise with the Spanish who are betrayed at every turn we do not wish to enter this war.

To: France
From: England

England demands that France take control of their country. The revolts in France threaten the stability of Calais. If this situation continues to spiral out of control England may take measures to ensure that order is maintained in Calais.

From France
To England

We are willing to allow English troops into the country, as long as we do not have to cede any territory.

 

[skizzik]

From: South Italian Confederacy
To: Kingdom of Sardinia

We completely honour your independence, and The South Italian Confederacy hopes that our trade relations may prosper in the form of trade rights?

 

[Masada]

Wait English Protestants attacking French Huguenots? To help the eternal enemy? Whut?!

 

[skizzik]

If Sheep deems me fit for the Ottomans I’ll take them, maybe this time I will do better.

 

[Condor_green]

i will take the empire of Lunda. what color are they and is there anything i should know about them before i send orders?

 

[Sheep]

Ottomans are yours skizzik.

IF the English troops enter France on those pretences there will probably no longer be a France.

 

[skizzik]

I formally claim the Ottoman Empire
