Manuel I, King of Portugal and the Algarves

We hereby pledge that, once all necessary preparations have been made, the King of Portugal shall embark upon Crusade against the Turk. All loyal knights of Portugal are encouraged to join the fight for the Holy Land. We shall retake Jerusalem for Christ, and God above will smile down upon us while we smite the Infidel in His name and for His eternal glory.

Manuel I, King of Portugal and the Algarves

We wholeheartedly condemn this horrid breach of faith by the Holy Roman Emperor. By attacking a realm that had declared for Crusade, he has shown himself to be a treacherous, backstabbing knave. It is an unconscionable, evil, and wholly unChristian action. It's no wonder, then, that the Emperor received the endorsement of the Sultan in his election bid, for he is clearly in bed with the Infidel.

Further codicil of the Treaty of the Holy Alliance

By agreement among the princes of the Holy Alliance, any city, town or settlement whatsoever, within the Kingdom of England or that part of Ireland that still serves the false king Henry, that renounces its allegiance to him and surrenders itself freely to the forces of the Alliance, whether Scots, Danish, French, Portingale, Irish or English, shall be considered covered by the terms of the Treaty and permitted to engage in unhindered trade throughout the Holy Alliance's dominions.

Such cities, towns and villages will also be reprieved from the burden of the false king's new taxes with immediate effect.

We of the Alliance have no desire to harm or plunder the English people, only to revenge the wrongs inflicted by their unlawful and tyrannical monarch. The question of the English Crown is to be resolved peacefully by adjudication after the conclusion of the war.
