:BIAUS: The Foreign Ministry of the Austrian Empire :BIAUS:

The Habsburg empire had faced defeat in recent years, but we will not let these minor problems do us lasting harm. The mainland is a dangerous place, but the world is yet ripe with uncivilized people that require the guiding hand of a Great Power.


Foreign Policy:
-Aid in the formation of Italy by returning lands with significant numbers of Italians
-Achieve peace with our neighbors
-Promote balance on the European mainland
-Expand our colonial holdings to strengthen our empire
-



Domestic Policy:
-Expand industry and railroads
-Raise literacy among the people
-Strive to assimilate the varied peoples of our lands into our great empire
-Work to strengthen the nation to defend against enemies who seek us harm


Investment and Sphere Policy:
-No investments are currently planned and we reorganize our economy
-No particular countries are currently claimed by Austria as full spheres, though several may enter our sphere in the near future as the great powers begin to determine the face of the world

Given aggression from countless foreign sources, the wise Hasburg king has decided to put away our plans for an Austrian Indoneasia, and leave it to the Netherlands and this rising state of Japan. We do however plan to keep our only colonies of Brunei and Atjeh unless a fair trade can be reached.

We also call on the Ottomans to reach a peacefully agreement to end their northernward agreesion and return the state of Istria to Austria, as the lack of port is quite harmful to our trade.

We wish for an end to the hostilities between Russia and the North German Federation, which have long plagued the lands north of us with bloodshed and misery. We hope they can reach final borders, or better yet, form a neutral buffer state between them. The old country of Poland would make an excellent one, we believe.

We otherwise have no real current plans at the moment besides continuing to industrialize and raise literacy, but if these wars have shown anything it is that only an expanding nation can be a prosperous nation, and so we look again to the seas until we find somewhere fair. Africa may yet be ripe, although we are sure the scramble to colonize it will not go well.

We also wish a warm welcome to the united Italy now at our borders thanks to our most agreeable manner, and hope they may obtain their own desires, which we certainly think should include the return of Sicily to it's rightful Italian owners.

While we disagree with there many stances and maneuvers we otherwise wish the British and French in their successes at home and around the world.

The Japanese leave Austria, its remaining Colonies in the far east, the Austrian Forces proved to be honorable in battle, which is why we will allow it.

The Prussian Ambassador encourages the Habsburg's to immediately break off diplomatic relations with the Russian Empire, given Prussia's state of war with Russia.

The proud nation of Austria is, at the time, remaining neutral with both the NGF and Russia as we re-evaluate the state of the world and our place within it to decide on the best course of action. Our great Habsburg emperor is otherwise continually focused on our domestic issues, as we are successfully raising literacy and improving our industry.

We are otherwise open to diplomacy from all the nations of the world, should one wish to discuss matters with Austria. Among other things, we hope the NGF will reconsider their dominance over the South German states, and that the OE will reconsider their possession of rightful Austrian land.
