Proposal for Swedish colonial power in Asia We realize that the United Kingdom has declared herself protector of Asia and more specifically India. We would like to draw attention to the power void between India and Persia. Persia resides with Russia and India with the United Kingdom; we are here to ask if the United Kingdom opposes Sweden filling this void. May Prosperity reside with you

The Ambassador for the United Netherlands to Great Britain, We would like ot extend our warmest greetings to the King and Foreign Office of Great Britain, and we hope that our relationship can be one of mutual benefit and cooperation. However, we have certain questions to discuss. First and foremost: the Dutch have controlled the East Indies since time immemorial. We would like to confirm, with the United Kingdom, that the United Netherlands' hegemony over that region go unchallenged. We would, tentatively, extend our hegemony to the island of Borneo. This would include the Sultanate of Brunei, but we would question whether the Sultan would be more beneficial to the British if it were run by the Dutch. We wish to acknowledge the vast superiority of the Royal Navy, and Her dominion of the Oceans, and to offer our humble services in the East should these sundry pleasantries turn awry. The Dutch have always been staunch propagators of free trade, and we stand by you in this. We cordially offer free British shipping throughout Dutch waters. Yours faithfully, Ambassador to London, from Amsterdam. |

The French Republic sends our best regards to a fellow HMs government, the United Kingdom. We wish for increased co-operation between our two countries around the world, to make sure our colonial ambitions don't intercept. We'd also like to announce the French Republic will be claiming Dai Nam, Luang Prabang, and Johore in South-East Asia. We have yet to set up a presence in the area, and the area holds crucial resources the French Republic seeks, especially Precious Metals, considering out of the UK, Prussia, Austria, Russia, and France, France is the only country with no domestic source of precious metals. France of course sees the need to discuss this with the UK and the Netherlands beforehand, but we hope neither country has anything against France entering the region. We'd also like to discuss Siam, we believe it should be kept independent to be kept as a buffer between British India and the French Orient, or partitioned between nations who have no presence in the area as of yet. On another note, France would like to assure the UK we have no ambitions in Egypt nor the Suez region, and in respect of the OE who we want close relations with, we are hoping to keep Morocco and Algeria independent, it is our opinion these places do not need civilizing. France will also be looking into the possibility of hosting a conference on a joint-partitioning of Sokoto in West Africa, between France, the UK, the Ottomans because of the large Muslim population, and perhaps a country with no African possessions as of yet such as Sweden or Austria. We look forward to hearing back from the UK.

Greetings from the Office of the President of the United States of AmericaIn order to promote a lasting peace between our two nations, we wish to develop a treaty concerning the U.S.-British Columbian border. In theme with the current border between the U.S. and British North American Colonies in western North America, we wish to establish the border between our country and your colonies along the 49th Parallel. As such, the U.S. will repeal any and all claims north of the 49th Parallel, leaving this land completely to the British crown. Establishing this border will avoid any unnecessary bloodshed and promote peaceful relations and trade between our two nations. Should you wish to proceed, I can draft a treaty for your signature. Best regards to the British crown. |

British Decisions - Annexation of CambodiaDecision : Permission Denied Reason : Prussia has no need in getting tropical wood in Asia, as they will be receiving Egyptian tropical wood. Perhaps a compensatory port in China may be agreed upon, with British and Japanese approval. - Annexation of BelgiumDecision : Permission Granted Reason : Dutch diplomats are indeed suave in diplomacy. The dutch raised many good points. - Annexation of BruneiDecision : Permission Denied Reason : British intelligence report North Brunei as a prime location for a naval base. The Dutch are allowed to colonize southern Brunei. - Annexation of VietnamDecision : Permission Granted Reason : France has expressed a supreme desire to acquire the region. Hopefully this will calm French extremism in Europe and abroad.

From the Office of the President of the United States of AmericaTo our friends in London: It appears a European power, the Russian Empire, wishes to interfere with affairs in the Americas. The U.S.A. wishes to call upon your support should Russian troops come to the Americas in order to enforce their will. The U.S.A. has seen U.K. ambassadors express support for the the American Monroe Doctrine, and hopes the U.K. will come to our aid should Russia interfere in likely wars over territory in the Americas. The U.S.A recognizes the U.K.'s role as leader in maintaining balance of power worldwide. Therefore, we hope that you will dedicate troops to what is likely to be a coming war between the United States of America and a Mexican-Russian alliance. Needless to say, the U.S. feels that the U.K. does not wish to see Russia claim any more territory in North America, which may be an outcome should this coming war not go in our favor. |

To our friends in London:The United States grows concerned over recent changes in the balance of power in Europe, for Spain and Italy have displayed hostile attitudes toward U.S. diplomats as of late. The U.S. has reason to believe the newly formed Spanish-Italian alliance is planning to attack a number of sovereign nations in South America, and may invade the U.S. itself. We find it extremely troubling that Russia, Spain, Italy - all these powers in Europe are so interested in protecting Mexico's interest. We feel there is something more sinister going on - a plan to divide the Americas between themselves. As you are well aware, Spain and Italy are ruled by radical new kings with radical ideas of domination. If these powers gain territory in the Americas, this will cause a ripple effect through the very power structure in Europe - which will likely cause much trouble for the Queen in the future. We appreciate your long-standing support of the Monroe Doctrine and ask for a treaty to thwart these evil plans should they come into fruition. We suggest our two countries join sides should the Spaniards or Italians invade the Americas with the goal of taking territory from any sovereign. In exchange, the United States is prepared to defend any British colony in North America, South America, and the Pacific should the United Kingdom find itself in any war. Note that this is not a traditional alliance where the United States will send troops into Europe to fight wars on behalf of the Queen. This is a promise to fend off any invaders into your less-defensible colonial holdings allowing you to focus British troops in Europe. We anxiously await your response. God bless Queen Victoria and the British people. |

Although we were enemies for a brief time, we urge British officials to understand the position the U.S. was placed in during the previous war. We were not told you would be the target of a war, and we learned the goals of said war the moment you did when France announced them. It was in the long-term interests of the U.S. to receive what was described as a magical statue. Indeed it is magical, for in the months since erecting it, our immigration numbers have more than doubled. We offer our condolences and wish to normalize relations with the UK once more. We ask that our two nations sign a non-aggression pact as an intention of good will and we hope to hear from you concerning our proposal at the Conference of Moscow. This treaty is based on the Austrian model and we are open to negotiation. Best wishes and God bless the Queen. 1873 U.S.-U.K. Non-Aggression Pact 1. Neither signatory will declare war against the other signatory or that signatory's satellites or spherelings. 2. Neither signatory will join an ongoing war against the other signatory or that signatory's satellites or spherelings. 3. During a diplomatic crisis, neither signatory will take a position in opposition to the other signatory. [x] Signed
