His Majesty is most curious about the latest proclaim issued by His Imperial Majesty regarding trade with the Qing Dynasty and Chinese Empire, interested as the Kingdom of Prussia and Corsica is with having a positive economic relationship with such an impressive nation. We hereby appoint Count Karl August von Hardenberg as our Ambassador, and dispatch him with haste to the Forbidden City.

The Venetian-Ottoman Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation.

1) In return for the Empire's promised grain shipments, Venice will dispatch economic advisors to the Porte, enabling the Ottoman economy to be brought up to European standards.

2) In return for Ottoman assistance in defeating the Tripoli rebellion, Venice will permit free use of its ports in the Mediterranean to Ottoman traders.

3) Neither country will intervene in the internal affairs of the other.

4) Full embassies are to be opened in both nations, establishing formal ties

5) Upon the defeat of the Rebellion, Venice will maintain control of its territories, but establish the Province of Tripoli as an autonomous region within the Republic. Pending the terms offered by Austria, their old territory in North Africa will be recognised as Ottoman land.

A Brief Statement of the Fate of Victor Amadeus III and The Lesser Demons in His Service

While His Sacred and Imperial Majesty the Sultan's desire to respect internal affairs of all nations, he can't help but feel horror and abhorrent at Mr. Verri's open threats to committ a ritual and public regicide of a crowned prince. He believes all Princes of Europe should unite in strongly requesting Mr. Verri's government not to cross this line.

Declaration on Piracy

In the light of recent successfull campaign in Africa, the Most Exalted Ottoman State wishes to interest fellow powers of the Mediterranean basin in forging a pact aimed at rooting out piracy once and for all. Details are easily to agree upon if we agree on the principle.


On unrelated note His Sacred and Imperial Majesty the Sultan orders festives to be held across the Ottoman realm to celebrate our victories in Africa and Asia.

Statements from Queen Maria Braganza

We will like to discuss several things at the moment:

1. The Kingdom of Portugal applauds the recent reforms in the Qing Empire of China and shall eagerly send a Merchant to the conference to see if you would choose us to be your trading partner.

2. I will launch a detailed Investigation into the claims of Corruption of Interim Parliamentary President Pombal by my son and several of his noble advisers. If these accusations prove true, then Pombal shall be arrested and exiled to a Country that I'll choose in secret. However, if these accusations are proven false, then the accusing nobles will have all their wealth and property stripped from them and they shall be arrested for trying to slander the Interim President. Any wealth and Property that might be taken will be distributed to the poor of Portugal ass well as improve our infrastructure and help create a food stockpile to help prepare us better for a bad harvest in the future.

3. The New Elections shall take place on March 17th and Soldiers will be sent across the empire to enforce the voting rights of everyone involved in said elections and to make sure no instances of Voting Fraud takes place.

4. We hope to host the Congress of War Rules in the city of Geneva and invite all European Countries, excluding Prussia and the Ottoman Empire, who have already accepted invitations, to help us all decide on the best rules for War.

5. The End of Slavery shall commence immediately and several Portugeese Diplomats will be sent to the former Slaves revolting in Santa Dominique to assure that they will not be harmed.

6. The Standard Voting Age for all of Portugal and the empire shall take be 18 as those old enough to fight for their country is old enough to vote for it.

7. The forced Military and Naval service of all men shall be shortened from 4 years to 2 months and a year in reserve as the original declaration is too cruel and too harsh an idea.

A Statement on Recent Events in Piedmont

The Imperial government is shocked and alarmed by recent events in Piedmont-Sardinia. The execution of members of the nobility for the crime of being noble is barbaric and against all principles of equality, justice, and Christian morality. That this slaughter is being done under the guise of a "trial" without hope of acquittal or even fair proceedings is an insult to the intelligence of right thinking men everywhere.

From the violent and bloodsoaked days of the birth of this "Catholic Republic" we are forced to conclude that the new Piedmont government will be unsatisfied confining its violence within its own borders. The spread of such mob violence is unacceptable to both Emperor and Empire.

We demand an immediate secession to the slaughter being organized by the Piedmont government. We also demand that this government assures the courts of Europe that it has no intention to spread its toxic influence beyond the borders of Piedmont or to expand those borders.

Should the Piedmont government fail to respond to these demands, they can be assured that they will face swift and decisive action by concerned states across Europe.

A Proclamation from Isfahan

We, the nation of Persia, have elected to immediately begin extensive trade with Europe. Our vast amounts of stored wheat and barley will begin being shipped West shortly, if the Ottoman Empire will permit. We will send massive caravans to Beirut, and pledge 1,000 troops to five massive caravans each. Other, smaller caravans will need a total of one hundred vehicles to qualify, and will be provided with fifty soldiers each. All vehicles may begin applying at once, in whatever groups they wish, and will be put in caravans. The smaller caravans will number no more than two hundred in total. The larger caravans will have between 300-500 vehicles, or maybe more. The Persian government is willing to supply these merchants with money so that they will reduce the price of wheat, tea, and barley by fifty percent to a fixed price among all Persian caravans. However, all who purchase our crops must pledge not to sell them above a certain price, gaining only the bare minimum in profits. We will send this price to all countries in Europe, and request that they pay the merchants and then sell the crops at a reduced fixed price themselves.

From Beirut, ships will sail to Western Italy, landing in Venice, and from there we will open stores to sale our produce so all may come and purchase what their countries need. We invite Ethiopia, China, Korea, Japan, Oman, Tibet, the nations of India, and the Durrani Kingdom to join us in this endeavor, sending what they can at reduced prices, if possible. To all the European World, we offer our greatest condolences in this crisis.

Regarding the Starvation crisis
The Kingdom of France is more than pleased to announce the signature of the "Avoiding starvation treaty" with the Russian Empire:

The best way to reduce the risk of starvation is to reduce the cost of buying food. We are pleased to announce that all tariffs on agricultural goods have been abolished between the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of France, meaning that the food prices will go down a bit with this policy.
Additionnally, abolishing tariff on industrial goods will increase trade even more and both realms will greatly benefit it.

We will gladly allow Persian caravans to transit through the Ottoman territory with the greatest ease possible and under proper protection. The only issue, which we are confident can be solved quickly, is that a large number of Persian guards could cause concerns in Mesopotamia, and His Sacred and Imperial Majesty wouldn't want to see this unintentionally jeopardizing peaceful relations with Persia. Keeping the level of troops assigned reasonable would be most appreciated. And the Ottoman troops would make sure no one dares to molest the caravans.


(Also, I'm not sure if it was made public, but the Sublime Porte had already reached an agreement with Austria regarding transit of our grain caravans for Europe.)

Decree from Russian Emperor Paul regarding the European Famine

Besides the treaty just signed with France, Emperor Paul of Russia, being a just and humane sovereign, has ordered that the sale of Russian grain to Austria and Sweden be prioritized. The Emperor earnestly hopes that this measure will help Europe overcome this devastating famine.

Declaration from Stockholm Palace

Scandinavia will not forget Russian kindness in our time of need, and can only hope to repay that kindness should our Russian brothers find themselves in a similarly precarious situation in the future. Emperor Paul, and by extension the Russian nation have become shining beacons of hope for Europe in this terrible winter of ours.

It is abundantly clear from Emperor Paul's actions that he is a modern and just ruler, and His Majesty King Gustav III looks forward to close and friendly ties with the Russian state in the future.

The Sino-Prussian Economic Treaty of 1783

1. The Kingdom of Prussia and Corsica is recognized as the honored trading partner of the Qing dynasty.

2. The only port ships of Prussian or Corsican origin will be allowed to dock in is Shanghai, in the Yangtze River Delta. If any ship of Prussian or Corsican origin attempts to dock and remove cargo at any other port, this treaty will be null and void.

3. Prussian and Corsican merchants will remove their cargo from their ships, and it will then be inspected by Chinese officials to ensure no illicit materials are being brought into China. Once approved by inspectors, the goods will be sold by Chinese merchants across the country on behalf of the Prussian merchants.

4. Of the income from the sale of Prussian or Corsican goods, 50% will be returned to the Prussian merchants. 25% will be given to the Chinese merchants and 25% will be taken in as a tax on the imported goods.

5. No Prussian or Corsican merchant or sailor will be allowed to travel outside of the city of Shanghai without a special grant of movement from the Viceroy of Liangjiang. Any merchant or sailor found to have traveled outside of Shanghair without a grant of movement will be subject to immediate execution.

6. If, after five years, there have been no incidents of alarm or causes for concern, as determined by His Imperial Majesty Son of Heaven, Emperor of China, the port of Guangzhou will be opened to Prussian and Corsican merchants under the same terms described above.

A Few Humble Words:

I have been deep in prayer of late and am pleased to say that God in heaven hath in his divine wisdom made four things plain:

1) The nobles are to be granted the same Christian mercy as the false king they served.  If convicted, these lesser demons shall be given the choice between the simple, humble life of the priesthood or death.  

2) The Catholic Republic of Sardinia-Piedmont shall humbly ask that The Pope, in his most divine wisdom, grant our Catholic Republic a Papal decree of protection and provide the Holy See's sanction for the establishment of our proud Catholic Republic.

3) Other nations have demanded that we swear to confine the people's revolution to Piedmontian borders.  They ask the wrong man for there is not a soul in the Sardinian-Piedmont with this power.  Any ruler who has been just, Catholic, and honest shall have little and less to fear from their people.  However, the crooked, corrupt, and cruel men who reject our Lord Jesus Christ who died for our sins on the cross, had best pray to God in heaven, for he not I is the only one who can save them.  One way or another, each nation's people shall render their verdict. That reckoning comes not by my hand, but by God's for it is but the wage each European government's policies pay.  The judgement day comes for us all and only the wicked need fear the people's verdict for it shall be guided by the divine hand of God.

4) Any so-called slave who converts to Catholicism, the one true faith, and accepts Christ as his Lord and Savior must be given his freedom.  Such a man must be welcomed as one of our brothers in Christ.  Of course, such people must immediately receive a proper Catholic education at a mission or Church-run school to ensure they have been fully civilized.  This extends to the uncivilized peoples of the world as well for it is our Christian duty, neigh the Christian man's burden, to bring such races and tribes out of darkness of Godless savagery and into the light of Christian civilization.

Blessed be He, the Father, the Son, and The Holy Ghost!

To the People of Tripoli

Venice has sought only peace with those who wish it, yet now we find ourselves at war with those who would seek to commit illegal acts of piracy.

These rebels will be destroyed in time, as with our allies, the Ottoman Empire, we crush this little rebellion and its so-called Sultan.

To those in North Africa who have been the victims of these lawless vagabonds, we offer the chance for you to fight back. Join the North African Corps of Militia, and be rewarded with land, pensions, and positions of influence within the Autonomous Province of Tripoli.

Religious freedom will remain intact, as we have not come here to conquer.

To those who wish to fight us, we warn you: continue to test us, and you will see a war the likes of which you cannot contemplate.

To: Emperor Paul of Russia
From: Shah Ismail III of Persia

We appreciate your majesty’s assistance in dealing with the starvation crisis of Europe, and urge your government to reduce the price of all grains, such as barley and wheat, by one-half, as we have. Additionally, we sincerely pray to Allah that your nation’s loss in harvest does not hurt your country's people.
