Japan wishes to purchase Germany's Pacific possesions. We will pay well for the transaction

February 23, 1906

As part of a prior agreement, roughly 190,000 square km of French Equatorial Africa (all at present overgrown with jungle, undeveloped, and economically worthless) is ceded to the German colony of Kamerun in exchange for a stretch of Cameroonese territory in the North and Germany’s prior agreement to the Algeciras Treaty.

Japan wishes to purchase Germany's Pacific possesions. We will pay well for the transaction

Upon hearing word of Japanese interest in German possessions in the Pacific, Britain quietly informs Germany that the Empire is willing to meet Japan's price and hopes that Germany look more favorably to a fellow European.

OOC: Also, we never specified how big the strip of German East Africa was. We need to do that :)

The Republic of Albania approaches His Majesty the Kaiser in hopes of establishing stable and favourable relations between our two nations.

We have come to the knowledge of German plans to Build a grand railway through our land, as we would like closer relations to the Ottoman Empire and The German Empire we have Granted the nessecery Permission to construct this and offer to seek the support of the Bulgarains to construct the railway through their lands (unless you plan to let it go through Greece then it would be unessecery).

We also seek access to fine and reliable German weaponry in order to better equip our armed forces, In addition to possibly some german Naval equipment and/or vessels.

Finally, we approach Germany in hopes of retaining a "loan" to help develop the nations economy and welfare of all its citizens.

While Sun is in Europe, he wires the German government, secretly asking for permission to see the Kaiser.

The Italian Government respectfully asks for a loan of 5 points in 1907 to help deal with our Volcano Disaster.

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

David Wolffsohn makes a fairly uneventful stop in Munich, followed by a brief stopover in Cologne, to arrive at the Zionist Congress in the Hague. While in Cologne, he asks for preliminary (obviously things may change) access to hold the 9th Zionist Congress in Munich in 1909 (the RL location).

(Sorry not as big an issue as when I left I suppose)

Permission is granted.

The Italian Government respectfully asks for a loan of 5 points in 1907 to help deal with our Volcano Disaster.

The German government sadly informs the Italians that the money isn't available in 07.

An urgent telegam arrives in Berlin. It reads:

"'To try and avoid such a calamity as a European war I beg you in the name of our old friendship to do what you can to stop your allies from their ill-advised and hasty action. We have not mobilized. We have no wish for an all-encompassing war. For the love of God, intervene on the behalf of peace. Nicky."

The Greek King also puts pressure on his German relative to persuade Austria to not send the whole continent in to war, as Greece was only reclaiming its rightful territories. The King's son, Prince Constantine, was once a Prussian Officer, and hopes his many contacts will bring an end to the madness.

Austria is already at war, it is to late for them to pul back, they have crossed a line from which they cannot return.

Greece has no quarrel with Austro-Hungary, and has received no ultimatum. Greece seeks assurances that Germany will not go to war against it.

"Do not talk to us about intevening for peace when at this very moment hundreds of thousands of Russian troops are moving westward and thousands more are pouring into the Balkans. It was St. Petersburg who threw away our friendship in favor of one with the French, and now St. Petersburg is asking a favor of Germany? We have made our position clear, Rumanian and Greek forces are to immediately pull out of Bulgaria, and as for the Russians in Rumania, they are to be sent home immediately as well."

Greece has no quarrel with Austro-Hungary, and has received no ultimatum. Greece seeks assurances that Germany will not go to war against it.

No quarrel other than the fact that a state of war currently exists between Greece and Austria.

As stated before Greece has received no ultimatum, and no reason for this war.
Also, you have a telegram.

Good link you might want to read, I think Kilani's already read it.

"The Austro-Hungarians have mobilized. What would you have us do? Sit by idly while their troops prepare for war? These are merely our regulars. We have not mobilized our reserves! Listen to reason! There is no need for a European War."

Spain sends a telegram to Germany.

"Currently it seems that Eastern Europe has exploded into war. A rather odd occurance, and yet we wonder if mediation the Norwegians offer may be the key. Once peace has been declared, we would like to offer Germany the Rio Muni territory under the same provisions and agreements that Rio De Oro was offered to the French. In relations to Morroco. Simply a bit of good news in times of crisis."

Germany would like to know what are the provisions?

For Rio Muni? THe Provisions are that at a certain time all Spanish settlers are to remove themselves from Rio Muni, and that Germany will get this land and have responcibilities to garrison, and hold it. And that it will be German held territory. No costs. (Aka I'm giving it to you.)

A Rumanian delegate quietly asks Germany for a loan either this year or next in order to facilitate greater recovery and more rapid indsutrialization.

The nascent Republic of China sends a telegram to Germany, asking for diplomatic recognition and any potential aid they can spare. (OOC: I know we talked about aid, but ICly, just asking).

The Japanese quietly inquire as if they could hurridely acquire an HQ unit, on loan or bought.

OOC: and when i saw hurridely, I say ASAP

For Rio Muni? THe Provisions are that at a certain time all Spanish settlers are to remove themselves from Rio Muni, and that Germany will get this land and have responcibilities to garrison, and hold it. And that it will be German held territory. No costs. (Aka I'm giving it to you.)

Germany will accept this deal.


A Rumanian delegate quietly asks Germany for a loan either this year or next in order to facilitate greater recovery and more rapid indsutrialization.

Rumania is informed that there are no funds available for 08, but that the 09 budget looks promising. (OOC:ND contactd me first via TG and chatzy, srry, next year tho)

The nascent Republic of China sends a telegram to Germany, asking for diplomatic recognition and any potential aid they can spare. (OOC: I know we talked about aid, but ICly, just asking).

Germany agrees to send military aid (2 points worth of modern armaments and munitions...including rifles, mortars, Krupp cannon, machine guns exc) and "advisors".



OOC: Haneastic, I don't know if thats possible, for me to loan you an HQ unit?

In order to maintain the current peaceful situation between Greece and Germany, Crown Prince Constantine, a former Prussian Army Officer, and honourary German Army General, will be visiting Germany to discuss important issues.

Chile requests formal permission from the German government to make the following arms deal with German shipbuilders

Purchase 3 tech level 5 naval units from Germany (1 destroyer flotilla, 1 escort flotilla, and 1 minesweeper flotilla) over 3 years 1907 - 1909 at 4 points a year (12 points total)

ooc
Sharina wasn't able to do builds for Chile for 1907, so catching up

Chile is informed Germany will sell the ships.

Important events this year:

The European half of the Berlin-Baghdad railroad is going to be finished be the end of the year reaching all the way to Instanbul thru Bulgaria, Albania, Montenegro and Austria.

Germany's first zepellin "airlines" have begun bussiness.

Japan would wish to sign a general alliance and Non-agression Pact now that we are neighbors.

Germany gladly agrees to a NAP and signs a treaty of Friendship, though Germany shys from signing an official treaty of alliance. In secret germany does begin negotiations with Japan over varois Chinese issues now that Japan has become a neighbor of Germany.

Spain apologizes for the mess that RIo Muni's paperwork was in, the rebellion of Morroco caused massive amounts of problems. In relations we wish to purchase large amounts of machine guns and heavy artillery. Our older artillery is being weeded out and we found the German Mauser as a standard arm of the SPanish army an excellent decision. Especcially after more modern modifications.

(In game terms this doesn't mean any extra points added I believe, but that I can just use certain German Arms or something.)_

Having taken a steam liner to Italy, then travelled on train through Switzerland, Crown Prince Constantine finally arrived in Germany, a country which he had already spent much time in, being a former Prussian Officer. He knew the German Gov't was currently very wary of Greece, and had many troops in Albania. Upon his arrival, he made a statement to the press:
"Ich weiss, dass viele Deutsche sehr schlechte Dinge ueber Griechenland gehoert haben, und, dass wir ein Krieg begonnen haben, aber ich bin hier, in Deutschland, um alle Meingungen zu aenderen. Wir haben kein Krieg begonnen, das war eigentlich Rumaenien, und wegen unseres Buendnis, musste Griechenland mit Rumaenien kaempfen.
Ich war in der Deutscher Armee, und ich habe viele Zeit hier verpasst. Ich fuehle, dass die Deutschen und Griechenlaender sind, durch mich als Kronprinz von Griechenland und Ehrengeneral von Deutscher Armee, Gebrueder, und ich wuensche, dass Friedenszeiten zwischen unsere Laende existieren werden. Kann Deutschland mir diese Chance geben? Ich kann nur hoffen..."
(Translation: I know that many Germans have heard very bad things about Greece, and that we have started a war, but I'm here to change all opinions. We started no war, that was actually Romania, and because of our alliance, Greece had to fight with Romania.
I was in the German Army, and I've spent a long time here. I feel that, through myself, as Crown Prince of Greece and honourary German Army General, that Germans and Greeks are brothers, and I wish that times of peace will exist between our two lands. Can Germany give me this chance? I can only hope so...)
[OOC - I'm sorry about that state of the German, its late, and I'm tired, so there maybe some mistakes.]

He also sent a telegram to the Kaiser, requesting an urgent meeting with him.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire requests that the German Empire, a long and estemed ally of Austria-Hungary, build three CL's and one destroyer flotilla to be payed by the AHE in a series of payments of 7 points this year and 5 points next year.

The AHE also more quietly enquires if Germany would be willing 'gift' points or advanced ships to its faithful ally.

OOC: SafeHaven2.. Because of the Production centre that was constructed over 1906, 1907 & 1908 using American aid. Denmark is only giving 2 points to Germany in 1909.

Rumanian delegates once again inquires as to the possibility of a loan, stressing the urgency of industiralization in Rumania.

Chaing Kai Shek thanks the German Empire for their patronage, and assures them and the workers at Krupp and Mauser that China will continue doing business. Chiang Kai-Shek does ask him if the Republic of China can be recognized by the Germans as well.

Rumanian delegates once again inquires as to the possibility of a loan, stressing the urgency of industiralization in Rumania.

RUmania will be granted a 5 point loan in 1910.


Germany officially recognizes the RoC and is happy to see German tools being put to work so effectively.


AH is told that they can purchase whatever ships they need and that they will recieve some aid in 1911.

The Bulgarian Government contacts the German Government to offer an investment in 1910 to help improve our mutual relationship.

We offer:
2 point every year for 6 years starting 1911

In exchange for:
10 points in 1910
Access to German Arms and Naval Manufacturers
Military advisors (1 German HQ) to be stationed in Varna.

This of course remains negotiable, as we would agree to restrictions on access to newer weapons and vessels, we aswell would also agree to negotiate other terms.

Germany does not have the funds available for such a loan in 1910 but perhaps in 1911. As for German armaments, Bulgaria can purchase whatever it wishes. German advisors are also available for the Bulgarian army.

Excellent, we look forward to our continued dealings together.

AHEM and SPains request for permission to use German heavy artillery technology?

Spain can of course purchase artillery from Krupp(Krupp sells to just about everybody, even sold to the Chinese, guns which were used on Germans in the Boxer rebbellion).

Thank you. We wish to place an order for heavy artillery units with Krupp then. (Which will be dealt with marketwise.)

On June 12 1910, President Roosevelt arrives in Berlin on the next leg of his European Tour. He was preceded in Germany by the Great White Fleet which stopped at Danzig on its trip through the Baltic 2 weeks earlier. American sailors made a grand friendly show of themselves there, but that spectacle is rivaled by TR himself.

The President spends a few days in Berlin touring the sights and meeting with German officials. Topics of note include the approval of the United States toward the strong German position that avoided what could have become a general European War over the Balkans and Germany in China. The US begrudgingly accepts the Germans in that country, and it is worthy of note that a great deal of good will has been accumulating in Washington over the past years as Berlin has made a point of asking permission before acting in the Americas and halting any more expansions in China.

By the 15th though, Roosevelt bids farewell and boards a train for Kiel, which will lead him to Copenhagen and the last two stops on his tour.

Germany openly welcomes Roosevelt, expressing Germany's satisfaction and love of America(Alot of Germans have relatives over there). The Kaiser especially was amazed by the Great White Fleet and spent a great deal of time around it, inspecting the ships and talking to American naval officers.

This is why we have decided to pursue a formal treaty of alliance between our two nation.

Quiet talk is also made rgarding increased activity of certain neighbors.

Albania is informed that Germany can not spare points right now but is willing to supply weapons and advisors. Germany also quietly asks Albania to join the war in support of her ally Germany.

Germany is informed that Albania can not join the war with the current state of its army. Albania deeply apologises.

Germany lets Albania know that joining the war will be mostly symbolic pointing out the war is a long way from Albania and so Albania need not get involved directly with its army for some time. Joining the war would open up a lot of economic, military ad political doors though for Albania in Austria and Germany.

OOC: Kind of like portugal in real WW1, I wouldn't ask you to deploy large amounts of troops to the front, at most I would only ask for a division(garrison) to garrison already conquered parts of Russia thereby freeing up German and Austria troops to fight at the front. And even that can wait.

The Dutch government quietly informs the German Government if Germany is willing to build a fighter unit for the Dutch Army. Of course the planes will be payed by the Dutch government.

The Brazilian Officials approach Germany about the possible purchase of a Zeppelin unit. 9 Points are offered for a single unit (they actually only cost 6 to build) and all shipping will be taken care of by Brazil to avoid complications with the Allied Powers. The German Government is assured that Brazil has no intentions of helping the Allies and that the Zeppelin will be just for the sole purpose of finding religious extremists and exploring the Amazon.

[OOC- Cough, Koryan.... buy it from Sweden. They can manufacture it and they're neutral, so no worries about anything nasty in that light.]

The HBDG informs the German government that unless the South African cavalry units are sent to an area more suitable to their immune systems (such as East Africa or South West Africa), the cavalrymen will all be dead or too weak to be used in fighting.

The Dutch government quietly informs the German Government if Germany is willing to build a fighter unit for the Dutch Army. Of course the planes will be payed by the Dutch government.

Ironically, the company that's making the fighter planes is Dutch.

[OOC- Cough, Koryan.... buy it from Sweden. They can manufacture it and they're neutral, so no worries about anything nasty in that light.]

Germany agrees to the sale and also agrees to sell to the Dutch.

OOC: Numbers coming up GB, prob tonight, if not then def tommorrow.

TLS, they are in Dakar, so I think they should be ok now.

Germany is asked that certain shipping marked red in the Mediterranian be left alone at this moment. They are used to feed the German citiziens still held in Tangiers. It's held under our civilian prisoner system, and therefore not apart of the other systems. We therefore would like to give forewarning due to your current "blockade" statement.

OOC:
German Army:2.5 mill

350,000 Pole
400,000 Ukrainian
150,000 Balt

IC: Spain is informed all shipping will be stopped, if the shipping is in fact not carrying war materials it will be allowed to continue as per international law which Spain is a signatory to.

If German Naval ships can captured Spanish Mediterranian ships, then the rule applies. However, since SPain does not consider the blockade legal, and no neutral power has really supported the claim of blockade, then it's not legitimate. (Aka your statement of blockade is extremelly questionable at this time.)

But this is extremelly moot as it seems peace talks are in the works, and it would be much easier if an armistance were signed so that no more soldiers are killed while peace is being discussed. And since territoriality is not an issue between Spain and Germany. (Unless you really want to hold Rio Muni, but that's not a huge issue.) Spain went to war for assurances against German expansionism. Not for territorial gain, though we question if a Non-Aggression Pact would really do much good this day and age, as it seems they are not worht the paper they were written on.

OOC: Sorry, but I've got to cancel the zeppelin purchase. GB said it would cost double to disassemble and reassemble and Brazil, being in a depression, doesn't have the extra cash right now.

With the ceding of tracts of German land to create a new Polish state also comes the ceding of much land that once belonged to Prussian aristrocrats. In order to make the transition easier the German government is buying out the landowners(4 points).

Spain sends small notes towards the Germans. If the precedings on the Balkans go any further, Spain would be willing for a seperate peace. Anything to end this long tediousness that we are accused of, but for which (I love saying that) it seems we have reached our consolidation earlier.

As stated before, Spain went to war to stop any hopes that Germany may have had on our territory in the future. Our image in Europe had been failing due to the problems caused by the 1898 Unpleasantness. Therefore, we hope that we have proven that we are improving.

Spain doesn't want to slow the precedings anymore than the Balkan mess has. So therefore we will sign this treaty. But, if Germany wants a seperate treaty as well that will be fine. Spain is interested in puting this horror behind us, and hopefully becoming better without war. We recommend that a NAP be signed between our two countries to prevent future wars. Assurances against invasion would keep the peace with Spain. Besides Morocco is enough of a pain to keep all three nations busy. After that, Japanese and Spanish hostilies can just fizzle out. The Pacific is a tiny part of our economy, and to bother with it is more trouble than it's worth.

With the war as good as over, Japan requests Germany return the Dreadnoughts Japan had built and were used by germany.

Japan also requests to purchse the remaining Pacific possesions Germany has

The Austro-Hungarian Empire believes that the Great War has proven that the need to pool resources is great and therefore suggests that Germany and Austria-Hungary begin a full-scale military exchange program. Additionally, the AHE offers to allow German Naval forces full access to Austria-Hungary's ports and suggests that German and the AHE futhermore pool their resources for matters regarding research.

Secret IC:

The HBDG informs the German government that the Boer soldiers are restless due to the current negotiations, and ask if the volunteer units from South Africa may return to their homes.

Prime Minster Cort van der Linden comes to the German government asking if a Non-Aggression Pact could be set up between the two countries.

Spain is told that is agreeable but that at the moment Germany sees no need for a NAP. Germany shares no common border with Spain and has no interest in invading Spain itself.

Japan is informed that the dreadnaughts will be shipped over immediately(all 4 of them survived, performed very well.)

A military exchange program is set up with AH. AH is told that Germany already allows AH naval vessels to stop and refuel at German ports.

The Boer volunteers are allowed to return home, but not before being visited personally by the Kaiser who stops to honor them while visiting Germany's new African possesions, possessions which the Boers soldiers helped win. The Kaiser anounces that Germany is offering large tracts of land in its colonies up free for any of the veterans if they wish to stay in any German colony.


OOC: Canadstein, what country are you? Belgium or the Netherlands, can't remember?

OOC: Netherlands.

The Boer volunteers, while thankful for the Kaisers offer, mostly all return to their native South Africa. After all, they fought for the Kaiser because they believed it was best that Germany be powerful in Africa, for an Africa that was only run by French and British could potentially lead to a dissolution of Boer culture.

However, around 200 of the volunteers ask for land in the Karas region of Namibia, near the city of Keetmannshoffnung (OOC: The Afrikaans name is Keetmanshoop, but I figure that since the city hasn't been under South African control like it was in RL, it would have a German name).

Spain is told that is agreeable but that at the moment Germany sees no need for a NAP. Germany shares no common border with Spain and has no interest in invading Spain itself.

What price would Germany be willing to sell the pacific islands for?

August 1913

Enraged Corfu Greeks, encouraged by nationalist agitators, put the Imperial Achilleion Gardens (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korfu#Beauty.2C_Power_and_Tragedy:_The_Achilleion) to the torch, burning down the personal property of Kaiser Wilhelm II to protest their island being ceded to Albania (a nation they regard as inferior). The “Kaiser's Bridge” is also eventually blown up and Wilhelm’s vacation home torn down.

(ooc: Kaiser Wilhelm II was fond of vacationing on that island.)

Dutch Ambassador Ruud Daan quietly asks the German government if it could send Great War veterans to the Netherlands to train the Royal Dutch Army. Also about a Dutch-German Non-Aggression Pact, so that the two countries never agree to attack each other.

1913:

The troops occupying Tangier ceremonilly hands the German Morocco territory back to German troops once the peace treaty is signed. THey return to their duties in Africa to keep the Morrocans under control.

January 1914:

Germany is asked if the current lands around the battlefields of the Western Front can be memorialised as a common ground to warn future generations of the devestation of war. Hopefully it will be an international point towards peace.

Also Germany is informed that while SPain doesn't share a border, Spain never wants the Alliance and COalition to have to go to war again. So NAP's would be beneficial. But SPain respects Germany's wishes, and is told that if Germany will ever want one with Spain, it will be willing to listen.

The Spanish Mauser Factories wonder if Germany would be offended if the now SPanish owned, manufactured, and designed company changed it's name. (Their are dozens of Mauser factories in SPain, and they did make their own types of weapons, example is the 1908 Spanish Mauser which my troops fought with in this last war.) If not, then the company understands.

Dutch Ambassador Ruud Daan quietly asks the German government if it could send Great War veterans to the Netherlands to train the Royal Dutch Army. Also about a Dutch-German Non-Aggression Pact, so that the two countries never agree to attack each other.

Germany agrees to help train the Dutch army and would like to sign an economic treaty to help tie our two economies together more and strengthen both.

Germany doesn't mind if Spain changes the names of its Mausers.

Germany also makes it known that she would be much more friendly towards Spain should Spain distance itself from the many entangling alliance's around the globe and declare itself a neutral, much like the Swiss and Belgium have.

The Spanish Mauser becomes the Spanish Morino Company, and prepares to create a 1915 Model to differenctiate from the former Mauser company, though both rifles are extremelly similar to make this all rudimentary.

Currently Spain belongs to only one Alliance, and this is the Catholic Alliance between Italy, France, and Spain. We do this for our own protection, and for the stabilization of Europe. Unfortunitly as long as Germany remains with Austria Hungary, there must be a balance. We hope this time that balance can remain. Though since the problem of the French/German border has been solved, it seems there is no need for the Alliance or the COalition to be against eachother. In fact, both could work together in the future. What is left for us to argue about? The Balkans? Asia? Japan is a much bigger threat in Asia. And the Balkans are just a bunch of squabbling nations that SPain has no interest in.

In fact, there has been some discussion of becoming a neutral. But with the worthlessness of some NAP's, Spain has to find some protection. We're a developing nation. We can't risk being alone in the world with no protection. ANd we hope that some friendliness can be made between Germany and Spain. Even if the "Much More" doesn't apply til later. Our troops did celebrate Christmas together. (Got permission from GB before I did it too, just in case anyone thinks it's not a valid event. It happened.) And we met on equal ground in Morocco, and I believe if you talked to the Sultan we had as our guest, he was treat rather well. (Which he would have been.)

Now, as a sign of goodwill, Spain wishes to begin direct trade with Germany. If that is agreeable. Trade always cures the wounds that war created.

Japan again approaches Germany to purchase he pacific islands Germany controls

Germany informs Japan that at the moment it is unwilling to sell off any more of its colonial empire.

Considering that both Germany and Spain have agreed to a Non-Aggression Pact, Spain believes that a writing, and signing of such an agreement should be done so.

Sukaida go ahead and write one up if you want. I'd think the terms of a NAP are pretty well understood.

Spanish-German Non-Aggression Pact:

1. Spain and Germany shall not invade or hereby declare war on eachother.
2. Spain shall not join it's ally France in any offensive war against Germany.
3. Germany shall not join it's ally Austria-Hungary in any offensive war against Spain.
4. German Morocco and Spanish Morocco will be considered "No War Zones" in relation to the two nations, and only permission from one country or the other (Namely in Moroccan rebels crossing the border kinda situation) will troops from either nation be allowed in the other nations enclave. These will be heavily monitored.
5. It is understood that Alliances with Austria-Hungary and France still remain, and that defensive operations may be neccesary. (This is in relation to the Alliance of Seville, which obligates Spain in a defensive war to help France.)
6. Any nation involved in offensive war against the other will be considered void on this.
7. Any nations involved in a defensive war, will not be void. (THis is a way to allow for both our nations to keep former alliances, but keep a NAP as well. Basically all Germany has to do is let France make the first move, and SPain doesn't get involved.)

OOC: No you do not have gotten a production center, your growth was a mere .49 points...

98 times .5% equals .49.

Of course growth past accumulated would have been added, but that is conveniently not listed on any of your economic posts (so I had to tediously add up Germany's last four years of growth points). Growth during 1913 was 0% (nothing), and I discovered that you’re left over growth from 1912 was .12 and left over growth from 1911 a mere .02.

Germany’s total accumulated growth as of 1915 is thus .63, not enough for a production center (so, Germany from 1913 to 1914 had absolutely no growth). Germany only has 37 production centers as of 1915, so you need to edit your builds/budget and from now on list your growth points (not that big of a problem seeing as how you have 4 points, two production centers worth of points, "left over").

Germany still get 1% growth from Wartime Economy (which provides 1% growth)

Also, at cut spending production centers are counted as at regular spending for growth

sorry, gave them the value of 1 point because they provide some raw materials to the world economy

salt and a natural dye

Queen Maria Christina of Spain is going to do a tour of Spanish Morocco in the near future. SHe sends a request to Germany to perhaps be able to do a tour of German Morocco as well ot improve relations between the two countries.

She also sends a personal request to the Ex-Sultan to make a personal visit. Her time spent with the Ex-Sultan as her "prisoner" was rather enjoyable and with so much time on her hands, she wishes to see the children again. (She spent a year with them, so with no grandchildren of her own, she'd get attached to the family that spent that time with her in the palace.The word prisoner is written in a jokingly way as the use of "guest" had been thrown around during the war years.)

She also notes that if the Ex-Sultan ever wishes to send the children to a Spanish University, they can attend for no cost at all, and that she could help if they wished to join a German school.

Queen Maria Christina is hapily welcome to tour German Morocco and to visit the Sultan should she wish. Germany would be more than happy to have her as a guest.

Germany is anouncing the completion of a string of defenses across the Baltic Union and Poland(Lvov, Tallin, Kaunas, Vilna, Riga, Brest-Litovsk, Parnu) has just been completed after seven years of work. For now Germany will pay for the maintainence on the fortresses but they will be manned by Polish and Baltic troops.


Also anounced is a recent agreement with Poland to make the city of Danzig a jointly controlled city to give Poland some kind of access to the sea. A railine from Danzig will be built to Warsaw to help Poland's trade out of its new port flow smoothly. (OOC: In reality the city is pretty much still entirely under German control.)

(Spanish Moroccan tour written in Spanish Thread.)

Queen Maria Christina takes the new railway from Spanish Morocco towards Tangier. Her guard is made up of old veterans, whose uniforms are from 1911 with equipment from that date. She brings with her, her grand nephew Ferdinand.

The 35 year old Prince is the dark horse of his family, his choice of siding with Spain during the Great War having ostracised him from his Bovarian father and Germanophile brother and sister. A Colonel in the Imperial Flying Corps, it's his first time returning to any German territory since he lost his status as Prince of Bovaria, which was given to his younger brother Adalbert. (I just found out about him. lol. Little gap. Well well well hope for a monarchy in Spain resumes.)

The Queen's visit was mostly for her own thoughts. Wanting peace in her old age, and having learned that the Germans "weren't all that bad." She spends most of her time in public works and talks. Ferdinand uses his time to meet German functionaries and helping his grandmother in her old age.

German officials in German Morocco spend a lot of time courting the royal family doing their best to try and improve Germany's image in their minds. While there the Queen and Ferdinand are both invited to Germany to meet the Kaiser and to tour Germany itself.

The Queen looks exalted, talking up a storm. It's apparent that she's been effected by the death of her children. One in 1905 to illness and one in 1906 to assassination. (That'd mess up anyone. One after the other.) But, she's kind, gentle, and doesn't mind joking with the German Moroccans.

Ferdinand looks much less comfortable. The memories of the German fighters driving the Spanish observation planes away from the Western Front are still parts of his memory. The downing of French planes, and the long line of wounded returning from the front also sticks in his mind. Not hostile, but the memories of the Western Front still remain, even for an Air Corps officer.

At the invite to meet the Kaiser, the Queen jumps on it. Being of Austrian birth, she hasn't been through Germany since her marraige in the 1870's. Almost 50 years have passed, and she's heavily interested. Ferdinand feels uncomfortable to going, but his great aunt convinces him to go, as long as he can see his children on the way.

(lol, the difference between the timelines makes him a much more interesting charecter to play.)

The Queen and her nephew were greeted with much pomp at Hamburg. The Kaiser was there to personally greet the two to Germany. From there they traveled to Berlin and entered the city along the famous Unter den Linden and under the Brandenburg gate. The two were given access to all of Germany with orders given to take as much care of the two as possible. Both were invited to accompany the Kaiser on one of his many yahting(sp?) trips in the North Sea and Ferdinand was invited stag hunting in Prussia. Special care was taken to not involve the military so as not to bring up bad memories from Ferdinands past in the Great War. Instead the Kaiser focused on the more peacefull side of Germany, the industry, great cities and cathedrals exc.

Queen Maria Christina hired a photographer from Germany to take pictures of her trip for her. She spent every second she could, her age allowing that is, to see as much of historical Germany as possible. She declined the yacht trip, stating that the sea wasn't best for her help, but decided to visit the hospitals around Germany during the trips, and to visit Wilhelms family.

Ferdinand felt a little more comfortable, despite the age difference between him and the Kaiser. (He's 35 and the Kaiser is in his 50's or 60's I believe.) He tripped several times during the yacht trips, laughing at himself and joking that he needed to grow sea legs along with his air and land legs.

The young man seemed adept at stag hunting. Most likely from basic training. He smoked, a bad habit he'd gotten from the war, but it didn't detract that he was nimble, though his independent streak meant he didn't like an enterouge around him. Sometimes he tried to convince the Kaiser to sneak off by themselves so they could get a better aim without the trappings that royalty had at their necks.

"Too bad the PM can't do this? He's kept as busy as possible. Probably why Weyler died before he could enjoy retirement." Ferdinand took one long drag from a cigarette after an uneventful hunt. His great aunt was looking at art galleries in Munich at that time. And he'd gotten comfortable enough to simply chat. Though he did have wires sent from Spain occasionally of the new fighter unit's training.

The Kaiser at times had trouble keeping up with the younger Ferdinand but was very impressed by the young mans hunting, and he found that he enjoyed conversing with the young man. Even though much care was taken not to remind him of the horrors of war, Ferdinand was invited to visit one of the new major air depots outside of Frankfurt where he was allowed to chat readily with officers in the German air arm about everything from new tactics to new plane models coming out of the pipeline. Ferdinand was allowed to even fly some of the newer model bombers and fighters that had come out since the wars end including the new medium bombers. While there the offer to conduct joint exercises was extended to help Spain develop its new airforce. Both the Queen and Ferdinand were also offered a flight on one of the luxurious Zeppelin airlines across Germany.

Even though most of the trip was designed to be comfortable and relaxing for the two royals the Kaiser did wish to discuss the possibility of improving relations between Spain and Germany, even though he is still somewhat saddened by Spain's refusal of a possible alliance some time ago.

Ferdinand felt comfortable enough to see the new depot. After all fighting in the air hadn't really occured between Spain and Germany. The German fighters came into the sky, and the Spanish observation planes had gotten out of dodge when the getting was good.

He chatted with the officers, sounding more like a Colonel than any kind of royalty. The terms used seemed extremelly foreign to anyone outside of an air corps. The new tactics he wrote down, thinking a manuel for Spanish flyers was needed. Most of the traiing was keeping level and individual tactics. Any group tactics were appreciated.

The new German fighters were interesting, but in the end Ferdinand though the French fighter was a better plane. The new tri-decker planes seemed a little much, and though more manueverable, the speed of the French planes, and their new developments appealed to him more. He didn't say that out loud of course. The Medium bomber on the other hand intrigued him. He flew one, finding it smoother, and much more able than the light bombers currently in the Spanish Air Corps. He discussed with some of them if they might discuss purchases when the Spanish Fighter Command and Defensive Formations were finished creation. The Offensive Command would need some proper bombers.

Maria Christina looked tentative being on board a flying balloon. (As she called it.) She'd been born when observation balloons were used, and she'd been a little girl when the Americans had that horrible civil war that the girl queen of Spain had wished ended in Confederate victory. Spain still had slavery in those days. THe comfort was at least nice.

Ferdinand felt odd in a machine that had hydrogen raising it from the ground. It made him uneasy, and he made sure to not have anything flammable.

He waited for a proper time to start discussing politics. After all he remained a simple Colonel in the Air Corps, and he didn't wish to supercede the real person in power. He said as much, and stated that a trip to Spain by the Kaiser to discuss things with Prime Minister Berenguer would be best.

He mulled the thought of an Alliance in his throat, slowly shaking his head. "It's simply not possible. France and Spain culturally have been tied together for centuries. Despite the little problems that Napoleon created by trying to put a Bourbon on the throne, we're still connected. Both Catholic nations. If Spain were to create an Alliance with Germany, it would be put into a dire straight. Both would be defensive, and it would be determined by who invaded who first. And unlike Great Britain, Spain is not powerful enough to prevent the two countries from going to war."

"In essence Spain doesn't want to pick sides. And with the power the United States and Japan are pushing around, Europe does not need to tear itself apart again." He laughed lightly as he realized he was weaving circles. "Don't worry, Spain wishes nothing, but peace. And we can take steps towards a much more friendly Spain. Trade relations. We're currently too dependent on US oil. That's something that Berenguer is very concerned about. If you wish you may visit Spain, a return of your hospitality."

Prime Minister Ruijs de Beerenbrouck tells the German Ambassador, to the Netherlands, that his country would like to take up the offer that was declined by Former Prime Minister Cort van der Linden.

Germany happily accepts the alliance offer and looks forward to a promising Dutch-German future.

ooc: GB, I have a few questions on the status of the position of Kaiser in the Third Reich. technically Archduchess Gisela and Prince Wilhelm's child (Wilhelm III?) is Emperor according to your post but am I correct in assuming that Wilhelm II would remain as the regent until the child would be of age? I need this info and any other you can offer about the current status of the German political system right now so I can start RP'ing.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: also, what year was Gisela and Wilhem's child born in?

EDIT: also, what year was Gisela and Wilhem's child born in?

Wilhelm is still Kaiser, and Wilhelm III would be third in line (after his father) for Germany, and Wilhelm III is technically Kaiser of Austria

So Wilhelm is Kaiser of Germay, Regent of Austria, etc

right now the Kaiser is still running things, but the Nazis are manuevering to make him a figurehead .. but won't be able to do so until a strong charismatic, messianic leader takes control (Hitler, who at this point is a senior man in the party, but not in charge yet..but he is working on it)
