SKNES: Architecture of Aggression

The Republic of Venice is willing to sign a peace treaty with the Byzantines.

1EP in reparation, and a guarantee that your republic is done with crusading against Byzantium in the future will secure peace between our countries.

If you will not kill any Catholics and provide them a temple somewhere, we accept on the condition that any part of this treaty is broken, it becomes invalid.


The invasion of Naples was considered a violation of this treaty, therefore we reclaimed it. Our treaty was invalidated by that. Nevertheless, if you wish for peace, we will accept.
 
OOC: Great update! I wonder how many people have died in the numerous wars raging so far...

From: Kingdom of Axum
To: Zengid Emirate


We ask that you not intervene with the Fatimid Caliphate. They attacked us, not the other way around. We have no quarrels with those who have done us no harm.

From the Electorate Bernard Reginald V of Aquitaine


Congratulations on your victorious overthrow of the cruel and insane leadership of Castile. We will do all we can to ensure your independence, and we hope that you will make arrangements with your religious minorities to reinstate internal prosperity.

Our soldiers have been aiding the Fatmid Caliphate for some time now. Your taxation of the true, natural Muslem citizens of the land you stolen in an insult that will not stand. Cease your attempts at disrupting an otherwise stable region, or we will be forced to amass an army many times the size of yours, and see to it that Axum is ruled by the Caliphate.

OOC: Fantastic update! I feel like I'm in the running for the richest nation; I'll have to check and see.

EDIT: Curses, the al-Maghribi Caliphate is ahead of me.
 
This was a great update, SK.

To: The Lords and Electors of the Holy Roman Empire
From: Thrasamund II, Sultan of Carthage, King of the Vandals


This war has gone on for far too long. It is time to make peace, and ensure the security of the Mediterranean for years to come. If we are to make peace at the current borders, the Vandals shall pledge a solemn oath to never raid the coasts of the Holy Roman Empire forever more, and both our kings shall take a solemn oath for peace for 100 years.
 
Hey, Can we make the Dominion of Midgard a Royal Blue Color? The current Marroon is harsh on the eyes next to the HRE.
 
But otherwise good update! :) The Dominion of Midgard Will lead the world into an Era of Prosperity and Power!

OOC: Explain the Jizya system established since the dawn of Islam, then? What of your taxation of true, natural Christian citizens of the land you stolen? :p

The taxes are far better than brutal persecution that others are facing right now. We have not even occupied any Egyptian land yet; everything we have conquered once belonged to our Christian brothers, the Nubians. The unrest in Egypt is entirely the fault of the Fatimids; had they not invaded us in the first place, they would not have faced such problems. As it is, enough is enough. If you will intervene, so be it.

Our nations have suffered greatly as a result of the wars that have been raging throughout the last 200 years. War has ravaged the lands of the Nile. We offer you a truce. Will you accept?
 
OOC: Oh, you got me there. I guess I have to redact that. :rolleyes:

From: The Zengid Emirate
To: The Kingdom of Axum


You act as if the entirety of the argument is based off of your taxation of Muslim populaces. For the sake of this, forget it. Leave the Fatmid Caliphate, or we will force you.

OOC: Yes. After all, wasn't your land Christian before you came and took over? (Sorry, that was directed at TheLizardKing)

Edit: OOC: I love how all our posts are like all simultaneous and thus your statement was already addressed when you posted it.
 
OOC: Pretty much. :P My IC has no time for your 'technicalities'.
 
Thanks everyone!

Thomas Berubeg: sure thing.
Gem Hound: ok then, so should I change your color back to the original one?

Also, I'll be intermittently on and offline for about a week, so I might be hard to reach. If you don't get a diplo response immediately that's probably why.

Orders due Saturday, June 1 For now.

Thank you for your support. We will do what we can to ensure that our young nation stays together, but the Moors are a far more pressing problem at the moment, so we ask that you continue your support.
 
Dagnabbit, Sicily was a fun run. But, I think I'll move my eyes east and take over the Abbasids, if that's alright.
 
Gem Hound: ok then, so should I change your color back to the original one?
Yes please. I am still allied and am vassalized to actually, Jutland. I am not a full member, so I should not be coloured as a full member. :)
 
Alright, let's get down to business.

It saddens us to see our Muslim brothers being conquered by the degenerate Axumites. Please, if you require our assistance, our troops yearn for a campaign to protect the holy name of Allah.

If you wish to keep your Empire intact, you will not trespass on the lands of Muslims any further.
