Concert of Europe: Gameplay Thread

[GoTfan]

It is the will of the State and People of Venice that we defend ourselves from the aggression of the Barbary States.

Therefore, I, Francesco Loredan, Doge of The Most Serene Republic of Venice, hereby declare that a State of War now exists between the State and People of Venice, and the States of the Barbary Coast

[GoTfan]

Continued insurgency within the borders of Venice will not be tolerated. Anyone tried and found guilty of crimes against the state shall be punished by death.

1) We shall fortify our defenses in Tripoli while again bombarding Algiers. Consistent bombardment will likely result in the eventual capitulation of the city. As for Tripoli, local authorities are to remain in place where possible. Any crimes against the populace will be tried by local authorities, and there is no guarantee they will be as understanding as I.

2) Further violations of the law in Illyria will result in harsh measures being implemented to restore order. Failure to heed the law and seek devolution through democratic means will result in martial law being instated in the region. I am prepared to negotiate a regional assembly being established to oversee the region with local leaders, but only if they openly disavow and call for an end to violence, and then back up their words with their actions

3) Trade routes will be established with all nations willing.

[GoTfan]

We ask the Spanish Crown to allow the King of Naples to truly claim his title and rule from Naples itself, rather than from Spain. The people of Naples deserve to have their King rule them from their own homeland.

[GoTfan]

1) We jave secured the presence of our monarch in Naples and have entry as an equal power into the Catholic League. However, we are not obligated to enter wars that we have no interest in.

2) The current government officials in place are required to train native Neapoltian officials to replace them. The retiring officials will receive a pension paid by the state in accordance with the position to they hold currently.
