Dalmatia is appalled by this attempt to control the people of Danzig, and puts its full moral support behind the leader of Danzig. We also call for our friends to do the same.
the nation of Danzig will not stand for this! We will send you a counter-proposal! You recognize the FULL sovereignty of Danzig nation, and overrule the recent trading of lands! How dare you believe you can interfere with the democratic process! We also demand that the president's daughter be returned to Danzig where she belongs! If you do not send an emmisary to talk this over, we will be forced to mobilize the peasantry, and declare a state of war.
danzig politely requests that members of the Baltic trade route please send friendly battalions to protect the trade that poznan wishes to destroy through war!
Tyre orders the blacksmiths to double production on their weapons. Any who do this successfully will receive a monetary reward from the city treasury.
King Mosh announces his full support is behind the great and noble people of Poznan. Athens declares it would like to stay out of this. Athens instead would like to ask for an alliance of true greeks against the dirty blooded Macedonians @Thefatkid Babylon asks Tyre if it would like to set up a small trade route. Babylon is prepared to trade rare minerals and silks for gold.
Danzig I will remind you what a deceleration of war will cause for your country. It is no secret to the world that the largest supplier of weapons and mineral resources to your country is Poznan, we control the roads into your country and will shut them down causing economic ruin for your nation, not only that be we are a large supplier of food to your country declaring war on us will mostly cause the starvation of the majority of your people. something neither of us wants. Now I am willing to negotiate with you about your current government and its hostile actions towards Poznan as well as lower the request of men to 7,5000. But its a shame really if you want to go to war, we were going to go cut you a deal with are salt mines, but obviously you must not need salt. Also it is entirely up to the president's daughter where she can go, it is her rights as a citizen of Poznan to say where she wishes to stay, if so so wishes to go then be it. But I will mobilize the army until you decide to keep a level head and care for your people.
As a preemptive measure, Danzig has arrested Poznan merchants, and seized their goods, but are being treated well, and housed in the Presidential Palace. Until this is resolved, their shall be no trade to or from Poznan, and this WILL be backed with force!
Tyre will accept this offer, and we will organise our first overland trade caravan, to deliver goods to Babylon. We will send an armed escort of fifty men to protect the caravan.
By the way guys everything I do as Athens is in fact supported by slydessertfox. Once the caravan gets halfway to Babylon, Babylonese(?) troops will escort it the rest of the way, and vice versa.
Using the money seized from the Poznan merchants, Danzig has hired a sizable sum of Mercenaries, bolstering our army with a 12,500 man brigade of highly trained killers. These mercenaries will not be used until any accords we hold fail. I have sent a diplomat over to discuss a peace strategy.
Use of merchants Obviously someone never read Machiavelli's the prince But yes what peace would you like to discuss, name your terms.
Sparta is insulted by Athens offer of invading Macedonia we have maintained good ties with there country in recent years! We ask Macedonia to move troops on the Border. @ddbb089 We ask Carthage to send its navy to crete and aid us in blockading Athens. Sparta sends 20,000 men onto the border. @Anwrise888 We ask Poznan, and Carthage if they will honor its military alliance should the worse come. @Viking Socrates
@General Mosh are you ever going to give the territory that Poznan and Sweden got? Because we bought two pieces of land from Danzig, and Sweden has been moving north, while Poznan well you know what direction there moving. Oh and don't forget about are population increase.
Johannes is willing to step down as president, but Poznan will not be allowed to interfere in the coming election. Danzig will return all of the merchants, Danzig will reimburse them for their loss, and Danzig will issue an apology to the Poznan government. In return, Poznan will not interfere with the Danzigian conquest of Germany, and recognize that Danzig is, and forever be, a free and independent country.
Dalmatia would like stronger ties with Macedon, considering our cultural similarities. We propose a new land-based trade route, protected by soldiers from both states. Workers from Dalmatia have begun construction of a new road in anticipation of your agreement, protected by the newly trained light spearmen of our army. @ddbb089
We have always recognized the rights of Danzig to conquest Germany, and thank you for your cooperation. Now would you like to be invited to the Swedish-Polish trade route?
Yes please. We hope that this event will be put behind us soon, and our relations will begin to thrive once again.
