The United States of America: Turn 1

     -Thomas Jefferson joins the Republicans in successfully repealing the Alien and Sedition Acts as they infringe on "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness". The President is soon joined by Aaron Burr, George Clinton, and Sam Adams who helped force Congress to act.

     -The U.S. Congress passes a "death by starvation" law which would forbid trade with either Britain or France, depending on who first attacks more American ships in an effort to curb the disruption of U.S. trade. Even with this law however, the US remains firm on its Neutrality in the European Conflict, following President Washington's example.

     -Give Fries a trial by jury in Philadelphia, per his constitutional rights, and accept the result.

     -Jefferson and George Clinton will be the Republican nominees for the Election of 1800. Although open campaigning is rare and frowned upon, several Republican newspapers are started to stir up support.

Diplomacy

To: Spain
How much for Florida?

To: Sweden
We must humbly ask for a condemnation of Britain and France's recent acts against our trade, which we want to flow freely. Could your nation, one of great honor and prestige, do us the honor?

The United States of America: Turn 2

     -We accept Spain's offer for Florida and purchase the territory

     -Begin a new naval system. While initially it will be composed of a small "mosquito" fleet. Make plans with shipbuilders for future, larger and more powerful vessels.

     -Ohio is to be admitted as a state into the union alongside Florida.

     -Send ambassadors to Sweden, France, and Britain in order to conduct diplomacy
     
     -Jefferson/Clinton shall not openly campaign, as it is distasteful in the eyes of most Americans, but will expand their newspaper campaign into other forms such as committees of correspondence.

Could we potentially get a world map, Cynic? I just want to see how the world changes as the game progresses. I'll understand if that's too much work though
