For the cost of two points and a Non-Aggression Agreement, The Kingdom Of Italy has purchased Libya from the Ottoman Empire.

In alternate news, The pact between Italy, Germany, and Austria-Hungary has been solidified by a gift of 10 points from Germany.

For the cost of two points and a Non-Aggression Agreement, The Kingdom Of Italy has purchased Libya from the Ottoman Empire.

The Ottoman Goverment confirms this deal for Libya.

The Ethiopian Government dislikes that Italy has taken another African Colony. This would the third one in the span of ten years. Our government cries out to other European countries not to get anymore land to Italy in Africa.

Italy would like to point out that the Italian-Africans in its possession have a higher standard of living than those in Ethiopia and other independant African Nations that, it would seem, are unable to care for themselves.

Yet you had to invade and steal the first African colonies. Also we don't believe that your colonies have a higher standard of living. Our country has been a stable country since the last war.

OOC: There is a reason the Ethiopians didn't press their advantage and invade Italian Somaliland after their victory.

OOC: What are you talking about?

Greetings to our Italian Neighbors from the Republic of Albania, We hope that we can establish stable relations as true neighbors do.

Greece unveils plans for a union with the Cretan Republic, which the Ottoman Empire has renounced its claims on the island. Elefthérios Venizélos, the Cretan Councilor of Justice and the recently appointed High Commisioner of Crete, Alexandros Zaimis, invite the four Great Powers (Russia, UK, Italy, and France) to attend a conference to listen to a proposal for the union of the Cretan Republic, and the Kingdom of Greece.

OOC - the "Great Powers" currently protect Crete from the Ottomans, but at the same time stop a union with Greece to appease the Ottomans.

Italy shall attend, especially since we must meet regarding other things.

The Hellenic Ambassador to Italy coughs what sounded like the word "Albania".

To which the Prime Minister winks.

Seeking further relations, Representatives of the Bulgarian Government begin meeting with officials of the Italian Republic to discuss the various affairs of fiscal and armmaments nature.

Discussions also go to various subjects like Ethiopia and such.

June/July, 1907

Various officials from the French Foreign Ministry and several French Railroad companies approach the Italian Government and offer build a railway network throughout Italian Libya, free of charge, in exchange for several guarantees. If agreed to construction will begin at the start of 1908.

French-Italian Libyan Railroad Accords

1. All railways built by France in Libya will remain the permanent property of the French State and shall be administered by the Government of France or Private Companies selected by the Government of France.

2. Goods transported from French Algeria to or through Italian Libya by the French railways shall not have taxes or duties imposed upon them.

3. The Government of Italy may not obstruct or hinder the passage French dignitaries, citizens, goods, supplies, and troops through Libya by means of the French railway system.

Unfortunatly we do feel that many of the requirements do violate Italian Sovereinty in regards to controlling what happens within its own lands. At this point in time it will require further thought unless something better can be brought to the table.

While we appreciate the gesture, we disagree with the first and third requirements.

Britain, understanding that Ethiopia might very well soon be under Italian "guidance," offers to construct a railway from Italian Libya to Italy's East African colonies through Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, of which we can work out the details of the construction at a later date.

Greece again puts pressure on Italy to send troops to Albania. It also requests that Italy allows volunteers to travel to Greece to fight. (In the RL Balkans War, a brigade of Italian volunteers fought, and i see no reason why this would be different, especially as Italian troops formed the leadership of the Cretan Gendarmerie until a couple of years ago).

blah blah, break alliance with Germany, declare neutrality, sign alliance with France, more later, school

(lol.)

Spain wonders if Italy wouldn't mind starting trade.

Vittorio Emanuele II

Shipyard: Taranto, Italy
Laid Down: January 1912
Launched: December 1913
Commissioned: 1914
Displacement: 26,814 normal, 29,450 tons loaded
Length: 664ft 7in
Beam: 93 ft 6 in(28.5m)
Draught: 26 ft 11 in(30.3m)
Propulsion: 4 screws, Parsons turbines, 78,000 hp
Speed: 28 knots
Range: 4,250nm at 14 knots
Complement: 1,068
Armament: 16-11.2 in (284 mm) 50-calibre guns (8x2)
12-5.9 in (150 mm) guns
12-3.45 in (88 mm) guns


The Vittorio Emanuele II was designed as a Mediterranean Hunter, with the ability to perform well in not only Mediterranean Seas but also the Atlantic as well as the Adriatic Sea. The numerous guns are designed to strike multiple targets simultaniously in order to maintain confusion and disorganization.

Due to the large armaments, the defense of the vessel has been reduced as well as its range, however the speed of the Vittorio Emanuele II has not suffered as such.

The purpose as stated before, is to attack shipping quickly, doing as much damage to as many targets as possible. Thus, there are Three fire control centers; Two cover the bow and the stern turrets (A, B / Y, X) While the Third controls the Port and Starboard Turrets. There is another Firecontrol Room, which connects all three, ensuring coordination between the three.

It is also theorized that the Vittorio Emanuele II could very well hold its own against Armoured, Protected, Light, Heavy, and even other Battle Cruisers.

Greece appeals to its close friends in Italy to put diplomatic pressure on Austro-Hungary to stop this mad war, when peace has been reached with Albania, and Greek troops have left Bulgaria at the request of the Germans.

Vittorio Emanuele II[/i] could very well hold its own against Armoured, Protected, Light, Heavy, and even other Battle Cruisers.

modelled on what historical battle cruiser class (send me a link by TG)

incidently, you can't build tech level 5 ships until you are tech level 5 (see military thread)

Incidentaly, Im assuming by that date that I would have reached tech 5 by then. If not then thats just whack since I will have met all the requirements.

The Class is modeled after the Seydlitz

OOC: kinda hoping this is acceptable--if you would rather this didnt occur just let me know and I'll do some rerouting.

IC: On May 16th 1910 President Roosevelt arrives in Milan on his European Tour. He plans to spend the day in meetings with Italian officials, and then spending the 17th in Venice sightseeing before moving into the Balkans.

More OOC: if you have anything in particular to discuss fluid time can let us resolve anything in this thread while I finish the tour. The only foriegn policy issue we have in common right now though is the China thing and as the US position is pretty opposed to Italian moves, there may not be too much to say.

Your builds seem to be off in several ways.
1. You have 8 production centers in 1911 and 2% growth. Because you have 30 points remaining after social services and upkeep, you should gain .6 production centers. Yet you jump to 10 production centers in 1912. Why?
2. Despite building a new fortress corps (which costs maintainence) your maintainence costs remain the same- 13 points- in both 1911 and 1912. Why?
3. For some reason you have 5 resources in 1911 and 6 in 1912. Why?

Italy is asked by the Spanish if they would be interested in signing the Alliance of Seville, in which France has already signed. The current balance in Europe is degrading with the end of the Entente, and it is imperiative that the balance is returned to prevent a war. If one side has an alliance and the others are a rabble of different countries, then how can they hope to have peace. It is stated that Italy's Alliance with France can be joined or seperate from the Alliance of Seville.

Giovanni Giolitti has replaced Luigi Luzzatti in the role of Prime Minister of Italy, after a heated election following the invasion of China. This is Giolitti's fourth time taking the office, and has pledged to remedy the embarrassing effects of Luzzatti's government.

A stage of rehabilitation is to occur. Overall, The majority of Italy's leaders are proud of their armed forces abilities, however several glaring errors and problems were exposed. Paticularily, the navy requires urgent attention if it is to maintain control of Italian Seas.

Plans for Quemoy continue, as Italian engineers begin drawing the plans for the Island.

The main island will be walled off, much like the Island of Malta in the Medeterranian, with the addition of a large Coastal Fortress, capable of laying down artillery fire into the sea-lane approaches, Formosa Straight, as well as mainland china itself. Large caliber guns will be installed, to provide a proper defense against a bombardment from the mainland, or a blockade by naval vessels.

Hundreds of mines will be kept within Quemoy, to be deployed if ever necessary. A Fortress Corp will be occupying the main island, while a garrison corp controls the smaller island chain as well as a good portion on the interior of Quemoy itself.

A Naval Yard is planned on the South Eastern Portion of Quemoy, under the protection of the rather large Coastal Fortress.

On the many smaller islands, smaller fortifications are to be made, including Artillery Positions to inflict damage on shipping and naval vessels, as well as reap havoc on any landing parties. Large observation towers are to be built as well.

(In the future, when there is RADAR... expect that too :D)

(Hmmmmmmmmmm and Spain's comment. )

Italy is warned of Spanish and French fears and their current need of preperations to be made.

The French government, noting increased Coalition exercises in the Mediterranean, suggests that naval exercises be held between the French, Italian, and Spanish fleets, in order that the Mediterranean powers are clear in their continued determination to exercise dominion over their strategic rear.

Spain agrees to this, but admits it's Mediterranian fleet is extremelly small.

With the return of the well-seasoned Italian Fleet, Italy now has an opportunity to put to sea its entire fleet in all its Glory to train with the French and Spanish.

The Fleet is also eagerly awaiting its twelve new Light Cruisers.

After several months from the conclusion of the war, Diplomatic Channels begin to be re-opened to discuss the possibility of normalisation of relations with the Italian Kingdom.

Spain also agrees to a status of normalization in Europe, though it adds the need for a systimatic combined attack on Anarchism: The Greatest Danger of the 20th Century.

1914 Mussolini founds his Fascist party in Italy
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benito_Mussolini

ooc
alterations to timeline... Mussolini serves in Army 1911-13, is wounded in action in the Balkans evacuation (instead of in training), but is deeply resentful, like many Italians, of the fact that much Italian blood was spent and Italy gained practically nothing from the war in spite of its support of the French.

Germany aproaches Italy with the offer of a treaty of friendship and a NAP, using the Great War as an example that Germany and Italy have nothing to gain out of being enemies, and should return to the friendship our two nations once had.

December 1914 through January 1915

In Il Popolo d'Italia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Il_Popolo_d%27Italia) Benito Mussolini and his newly formed Fascist Party demand that the government intervene in Albania and "pacify Italy's Eastern frontier." Mussolini's calls resonate with many disappointed Italian Nationalists.

Germany aproaches Italy with the offer of a treaty of friendship and a NAP, using the Great War as an example that Germany and Italy have nothing to gain out of being enemies, and should return to the friendship our two nations once had.

Italian Nationalists oppose any alliance with Germany and the Austrians as long as both continue to block Italy’s aspirations in the Balkans, particularly Albania, Dalmatia, various Adriatic ports, as well as the present unsatisfactory Alpine frontier between Italy and the Imperium.

You can;t have heavy infantry corps as reserve as you are a neutral.

Also, they're known as Infantry Corps now

wtf are you talking about.

Substantial street fighting occurs in Milan and the other northern Italian industrial cities, forcing the imposition of curfews and other harsh measures to bring calm.

Officials from the Russian Royal Court approach the Italian King, Victor Emmanuel the Third, with the proposal of a possible marriage between Empress Anastasia and the king’s young cousin, Prince Amedeo, the 3rd Duke of Aosta. They set forth the idea that a meeting between the young Empress and the Duke be arranged in Petrograd.

Of those others considered, the French had no one of marriageable age (and, in any case, were no longer of a ruling house), the Belgians were not interested and the Danes were, unfortunately, not seen as the best choice due to public opinion against Germans.

3.5pts for Rural Electrification

OOC: Rural Electrification is not available until 1925 (when Italy reaches tech 5.5).

The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs inquires as to whether the Kingdom of Italy would be willing to take over the French protectorate of the Republic of Hainan. As Italy has a more significant military presence in the Pacific it would be more suited to take over the role of Hainans protector. If the Italian Government is in favor of the idea, a formal treaty shall be worked out.
