Are you sure about the colonies? It's in 1910...

I'm trying my best, honestly. I would like to retain Norway for this RP though.

It's ok, just wondering. You could try to unify Scandinavia...;)

Yes, Norway would easy bend to my will, but the Swedish people's to the north hated the Danes, also, it would catch the attention of Russia. And I cannot take on Russia.

Everybody thought Japan couldn't take on Russia...

With help from other nations you can take on Russia, but she's modernizing fast.

Denmark, England, Japan are ecceling in their ship building and are controlling the high seas. France and America are looking to expand further. Russian Navy is a joke. But, then again, the Danish Army is a joke, compared to their navy, which is one of the best in the world.

ok, this is wrong. I think you are looking at a map of Denmark from the 1700's or something - but at this point Denmark only controls itself, the Virgin Island, and Greenland.

Denmark never controlled Newfoundland, Sri Lanka or Nepal. Maybe a Danish person visited there once, but thats about it.

Hmm. Now that I look at it, yes. But Denmark still controls southern sweden, and the Swedish wars are still going on at this point. And I have taken Norway before (it would take to long to explain, we decided to have Denmark control Norway in the last one). I messed up a little, let me revise it.

OHH right now the RUssian navy is a joke, but with the rising program I have entailed, it won't be for long. OHHH!!! NOOO!!! And with a huge army behind me. *Evil grin* Now back IC.

Telegram to Denmark:

I believed you appeal for an alliance with RUssia has to dow tih joining the triple entente. Or do you wish a seperate treaty with Russia?

Excellent, glad your navy is getting better. I accept the joino of the triple entente.

In order to join I believe you should also talk to France and Great Britain.
