I, again, will control America.
Lincoln was trying to find away to end this terrible war between teh anglos and him, so finally he sent a letter of surrender.
To Spain and Britain:
I leader of the Americans would like to end this terrible war. As a present to further bring peace and if peace is brought, I offer you the Cuban Islands. Please, I hope our war can come to an end.
Meanwhile, Lincoln knows he can't hold off an invasion of the two countries, and hasn't any Navy to protect his coast. So he begans researching technology to better his nation's military. He must only hope the Euros will grant him peace.
Meanwhile, his American influence quickly spreads western, and the new stated of Tennesssee and Arkansas rise, along with Ohio and Michigan. The states start to generat long needed money for the backwards nation. As the new leader of the American people, Lincoln decides it's time for the rest of the world to see American economy in action.
