Firstly, Das I cannot update the map yet, as it hasn't been three days.
Tomorrow night I will update the map, and probably a new turn will begin the next day.
Anyway, everyone please PM me orders! Don't put them in the thread! I'll accept those in it at the moment to save you time, but not afterwards!
Finally, fleets from the same nation CAN occupy seas peacefully together, they only fight if they are at war! The same goes for provinces, you can sign right of passage agreements as well. But you MUST state in your orders whether you are passing peacefully through a province or are attacking it.
In the event of two countries going for the same province, the larger force takes it. If they are equal, then neither takes it, unless they have specific orders to take it at any cost in which case a battle will ensue.
Whether a battle causes war or not is up to you, you can try and iron the problem out or go to war.
Anyway, for the last time, fleets and armies CAN occupy seas and provinces together peacefully, so long as there aren't orders to the contrary.
Also, if you try to pass through a province of someone and you don't have a right of passage agreement with them, then I will ask them on the thread if you are allowed access or not.
If not, and you still try to go through, there will be a battle.
Fleets don't need permission(except to go from M to P and vice versa), and only fight if they are at war or have orders to prevent any fleet entering that sea.
