To Britian
From Egypt
The previous regime of France sought to destroy Egypt utterly. They failed. We will not allow them to EVER regain a place where they can once again threaten our nation or people. Our people have voted in the Anti-French party of One Africa as a measure of our resolve to ensure that this travesty to the honour of all Egyptian soldiers who fell in the defence of the Nile. Never again will the Egyptian Imperial Republic humble itself before the might of a European power.
The time for European imperialism has come to an end. We do not dissuade yourselves from the European Economic Community, in fact we encourage this institution as a possible brother community to the African Communities of Economics (ACE), however we will not tolerate any Franco-British Alliance as this is the alliance that once tried to rule the waves.
Futhermore at the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, several French ships passed into your control. Under the articles of this treaty they should of been turned over to the Egyptian government in reperations for losses incurred in the fighting against the French aggressor. We ask for these to be returned.
Of course if you accomodate us in this manner, we may very well be more accomodating in other areas in question. Please feel free to discuss this futher, but as it stands, the Egyptian spirit cannot be sullied as such and we have causus belli against the French Kingdom.
TO: Egypt
FROM: The United Kingdom of Great Britain
While we understand your concerns, it seems that Egypt believes France to be the exact same nation it was at the start of the Great War. France is no longer the France of the past, and the new government has no designs on Egypt or Africa. The whole of Europe for that matter does not desire or need any part of Africa. The Europeans are content with Europe, and we ask that you stop your premature assumptions on what we, the nations of Europe, will or will not do.
Furthermore, the French people were not responsible for the war, their former government was. It is horrendously irresponsible that you, a supposedly benevolent world power, would seek to deny the French people their natural rights to grow and prosper. The French people have the same rights as those of the Egyptian people, and are in no way inferior to them. Egypt, or any other nation for that matter, has no right to stop the French people from growing and becoming rich as they once were. You have a right to restrict their military, as dictated by Versaille, but you cannot restrict the French people in their pursuit of happiness.
Lastly, we reviewed the Treaty terms of Versaille, and we found no article of it which dictated that Britain had to hand over ships, or any other type of payment for that matter. We will, however, in a gesture of goodwill send 5 wooden ships-of-the-line to the Egyptian Navy, but that is all, for we will only agree to terms as they were written and dictated in the Hall of Mirrors - this includes terms restricting a renewed Franco-British Alliance. As it stands there were no such terms, and therefore we are not oblidged to follow what was not dictated to us by the nations of the world.
We hope to continue civil relations with the Egyptian Government, but we must remind it that it cannot do whatever it pleases, and that Britain and the nations of Europe will only submit to the terms of Versaille, and not to the terms of foriegn governments.
We also finally ask that you cease in your belligerent tone towards the French Government, for a war against France would mean a war against Britain and Denmark aswell and though you may prevail in the end, the cost of millions of innocent lives would far outwiegh the benefits.
