I drop my claim for VOC and will pick up Segu.
J'adore desert.

 

[germanicus12]

If you will have me, I do well as Great Britain.

Second choice will be USA if you do not want me as GB.

A somewhat forgettable (to me anyway, my memory was never the best) Chinese leader becomes slightly more capable than he was in our history.

lurker's comment: It's more like "the last competent general of the Ming dynasty doesn't get executed soon after defeating Nurhachi, and instead goes on to nip the Qing Dynasty in the bud, with all that implies."

 

[a_propagandist]

Requesting Japan.

 

[Dachs]

Requesting Japan.

I think that conehead234 has it.

 

[Azale]

@germanicus, you can have Great Britain.

@propagandist, conehead has laid claim to Japan.

dasian flavor I regard most of them as forts and outposts at this point, but I can't be bothered to remove them now


From: King Jyzsef II of the Hapsburg Empire
To: His Impiousness, Fredrick II of Sweden

It is a tragedy that the Swedish people find themselves under a madman once again. The Hapsburg Empire will not tolerate your Dark Age rhetoric any longer.

The Thirty Years War is over. If you wish to rekindle it, it certainly will not last that long the second time around.

From: His Holiness, Pope Benedict XIV
To: The Wandering One, the Lustful Fredrick II of Sweden
CC: Europe

Your words are fiery yet muddled. Is it war with most of the European continent you desire? We have plenty of men to ensure that Catholicism lives on, and that Sweden pays a grave price for it's monarch's foolhardiness.

[Thlayli]

From: The Duchy of Bavaria
To: Sweden

While we have become apt, no doubt due to great practice, at ignoring the diverse ravings of Scandinavian madmen, it might be wise to point out that within the Holy Roman Empire, there are Germans of both Catholic and Protestant faiths. Within that same Empire, a good number of the Protestants are the ones which hold your nation in lower esteem, perhaps due to your malevolent designs on North German territory.

We sincerly hope that the antagonization of Germany's Catholic states is not joined with a more...aggressive response to Sweden's belligerence from her Protestant ones. Bavaria merely advises Sweden in the interests of peace, as we are in little position to prevent a war which has already commenced.

[das]

lurker's comment: I think that looking at the top of this page will make it clear that he ultimately did not.

Ah yes thanks for correcting me.

 

[Azale]

Abaddon, the VOC is yours.

 

[Abaddon]

Yeah baby

[Azale]

germanicus has been confirmed as Great Britain.

silver is the USA, but he's banned so his diplomacy is limited
