ECSTATIC VETERANS WILL SOON BE ABLE TO RETURN HOME
The newly brokered peace agreement between Japan and Germany means our veterans will soon head for home. The reserve armed forces will be inactivated, a huge economic burden for Nippon will be lifted. These are the news at least, awaiting in trepidation our governments to give the signal to pack!

The A-H Empire's only current ambition is to end the current DA between Germany and Russia.
This statement and reasoning is arrogant, ridiculous and unfounded; the defensive agreement between Germany and Russia has never ever threatened any country in Europe. Since the early 1850's, there hasn't been any, not a single, war which was initiated unprecedented by either signatory. Interestingly enough, this cannot be said about Austria.
Nevertheless, Russia will stand by its ally, and will come his defense. This ultimately means that a state of war exists between the Empire of Russia, on one side, and Austria and France, being the attackers of Germany, on the other side.
Officiel Declaration of Egypte
Freedom is the word, freedom for the French in Lorraine to go back with the France, and Freedom for Muslims in Sudan to go back with your brother muslims of Kingdom Egypte. This is only word, but with action this word is reality, and this action is the war against Prussia!

The OE is grieved at this news. Had the Egyptians consulted with us first we would have cautioned them to wait until the OE's alliance with Germany ended and we could assist them, as we already counseled once before.
As it is we are unable to do more than remain neutral in the war, we cannot dow our allies, Germany, who have just saved us from GB.
We hope for the best for Egypt but fear that they may have been taken advantage of by other nations who counseled them to seek a war that will not benefit Egypt but rather benefit those nations who pulled the strings behind the scenes. This is a sad day for the Muslim world.

#Official declaration regarding the French-German War by the Italian foreign ministry#
The Kingdom of Italy, being allied to both of the warring parties, the Empire of France and the Empire of Germany, declares its strict neutrality in this conflict. We hope that peace will be restored in a fast manner, and that a understanding between both parties can be reached.

KING SHO TAI BACK IN HIS REALM
In a solemn ceremony King Sho Tai of Ryukyu gained control of his country, once the recognition of its independence has been guaranteed by the Prussian and Japanese authorities. Many nations around the world whisper that Sho Tai is nothing but a mere puppet of the growing Japanese Empire, but the government of Nippon disagrees with this interpretation. The Ryukyuans were always very close to the ethnic Japanese and they should be convinced peacefully if they are to be united with our nation or remain independent. For the moment, Nippon will simply make sure this small island chain nation remains sovereign. We only ask for some minor uninhabited islets to create monitoring stations for naval security.

In game terms: Ryukyu back to normality. Japan asks it however to cede some territory (colonial action).

Ottoman Empire Rejects Peace
Newspapers around the country are alight with rumors of a renewed war. Government sources tell us that after doing all that was asked of it, the Government's peace delegation was not even granted an audience with any member of the Ottoman Government. An inside source said "We were sitting there with the peace documents ready to be signed, and we waited, and waited, then some person came out, not even a diplomat, and told us to move along, as no one wanted to see us. We left at that point, but don't know what to do."
We have been told that our diplomats will try again to gain an audience with the Ottoman Government.

Italy is forced to the following two steps due to the recent declarations of war by various European (and African) nations.
1) a declaration of war against Egypt
2) a declaration of war against Russia
However, Italy intends to stay true to its word and remain neutral in the Prussian-French war. We hope that we can immediately return to peace after issuing those declarations of war.

Wow good defense there, Lindi! But Prussia is a difficult beast to put down. It would have been probably easier if you simply tried to buy your colony...

Austrian army invades Poland!
In a bold movement, an Austrian army under Franz von John, has crossed the Russian-Austrian border and initiated a battle against Russian troops defending Poland. After several hours of battle, Russian forces started to break away.
This premeditated invasion cannot go unpunished. The Russian public requests an immediate invasion of Austria, the Generla Staff has been convened. It is said that the defense of the Rodina is directed by His Majesty, Grand_Duke_Michael_Nicolaievich, the Czar's brother.

OSS REPORTS Summer 1873
SUMMER 1873
*Breaking News and Making News Since 1863*
JAPANESE REJOICE IN VICTORY: Despite low National Morale, the Japanese people are proud of victory against "the two most powerful European empires" after their long stubborn struggle with the Russian and German Empires. So fierce was the costly fighting on Sakhalin that it was said that Japan's Imperial Guards would need change of name to the Imperial Guard because they were fighting to the last man. The armed forces and nation are viewed as having gained great honor through the war and some strategic advantage, although the effects on the map appear minor.
Although Japan has receded from the attention of the world, the intense war on land and sea and rapidly increasing Japanese armed forces have changed global perceptions and earned respect for Japan as a rising power, someday possibly a Great Power. A rising power creates the danger of instability and conflict - and it remains to be seen what course Japan may take, constrained by a ring of Western powers as well as China. There is little virgin territory for imperial colonization, and aloof Japan has shown little interest in developing global diplomatic relations, but the industrious Japanese may choose economic imperialism instead.
MUSLIM ALLIES PLOT DIFFERENT COURSES: Persians and Egyptians not long ago joined in alliance with Turks to form a united Muslim force that acquitted itself well in the Holy Cities War. No sooner did that near its end than the Khedive declared war against the German Empire and the Sultan followed by declaring war in support of the German Empire. Will they fight each other? Highly unlikely, but in disunity there is weakness. In the face of the new Franco-German War, the Persians appear to be focusing inward to avoid involvement in the conflict.
ITALY'S SHREWD STRATEGY: Italian diplomacy in recent years has been very selective in its choice of friends and the opposite in its choice of wars, having repeatedly engaged in struggles that due to the actions and decisions of others failed to improve the Italian position. Italy's entry into alliances with both the French Republic and the German Empire appeared to be a dubious move but in fact has proven a masterly stroke. Neither ally needs Italy to fight on its side in a war, but neither wants it as an enemy. A simple passive alliance role gives Italy the benefit of strong deterrence against a declaration of war by any other power, thus enabling Italy to single out its targets selectively. First of these is Egypt, whose hasty declaration of war on the German Empire was unexpected to friend and foe alike and has left it isolated with strong German forces close by and now the prime target of what is said proudly by Romans to be a new Roman Empire. Not all are enthused by this prospect - Italy is a major source of emigration to the New World. Although these emigrants are seen as
disloyal by the more jingoist Italians, they maintain a strong interest in their native country which has a political effect on their new homelands.
Italy also declared against the Russian Empire to maintain its prestige. As there are no obvious points of contact, its intention of a quick peace seems likely to be satisfied. We can expect further Italian expansionism using the leverage of a uniquely Italian alliance strategy.
AMID INSTABILITY, SPANISH SWITCH SIDES: Federalist republican President Francisco Pi y Margall proved unable to stand firm against the strong currents of opposing republican, federalist, anarchist, socialist and other political forces in Spain and in little more than a month in power was rejected as illegitimate by major factions amid a wave of insurrectionism. President Nicolas Salmeron has been chosen to replace him as leader of the Cortes and chief executive of the government and will need to rely on sending in troops to establish domestic order. His shaky government also appears to have chosen a quick and successful victory over France as his way of satisfying the military, whose shadow is always present over the Cortes, and uniting a divided country by fighting against a foreign foe. Although France is a republic rather than a monarchy, while the German Empire is absolutist, the Spanish republicans seem to be attempting to bolster their position by opposing former friends of Spain under King Amadeo's liberal monarchy. The ability of the German Empire to offer territorial advantages in North Africa may also be a consideration. How active will Spain be on the Pyrenees? Can it afford to prosecute the war actively and risk defeat? Can it afford not to show the strength of the Republic to the people?
In addition to engaging against France, Spain has dramatically cut back its international trade activity and diplomatic activity abroad. Peaceful Iberia is unsettled by word that the Spanish government has apparently suspended diplomatic interaction with the Portuguese-speaking liberal monarchies of Portugal and Brazil. Whether Spain intends to break relations and repudiate its treaty obligations with Portugal and understandings with Brazil remains unclear because Madrid has been silent.
The government is preoccupied with getting into foreign wars and maintaining domestic order. Indeed, with the great political turbulence in Spain this year, we could easily see a very different government in Madrid within the next 6 or 12 months - anything from a revolutionary commune to a military junta or even restored monarchy. Any of these could meet large-scale opposition in the provinces.

VIENNA STOCK EXCHANGE CRASHES
After large cash infusions from speculators caused abnormal growth, a series of small banks failed, including the Quistorpsche Vereinsbank. This has resulted in a contraction of money available for business lending and a bursting of the speculative bubble. The investments of thousands of Austrians were wiped out in a single day. Economic experts in Berlin said the crash was more likely related to Austria-Hungary's misguided attack on Germany. "Who wants to invest and operate a business in a country that keeps attacking their larger and stronger neighbor?" asked Dr. Hans Schickelgruber. "Such actions make no sense and definitely scares the hell out of the business community. The safest haven for their investments is the largest economy in the world, Germany. However, I doubt that money will move here, since we are constantly being attacked by jealous neighbors."
DEFEAT AT KHARTOUM
In a hasty crossing over the Blue Nile river, General Alexander von Hessen-Darmstadt attempted to quickly take Khartoum from a smaller sized garrison. The garrison proved to be stronger and better prepared than German intelligence assessed. The general stated he will return soon and will not underestimate the Egyptian defenders next time.

RUSSIANS ATTACKING KOREANS?
It has come to our attention that Russian forces have landed to the Korean peninsula and attacked the Joseon Dynasty there. This is a rather curious move for two reasons: (a) the Russians were supposed to be friendly with the Koreans, helping them and having trade agreements with them, (b) China is supposed to be the protector of the Korean nation... how does it even allow such a thing? The government of Nippon will keep an eye on this developing situation. One thing is certain: we are not at all amused by the change of status so close to our borders. Even more when Japan considers Korea a valid trade partner.
So, what is going on there?

Rumors of Russians Invading Korea Untrue
A short scare was created when reports of Russians Attacking Korea surfaced in Japanese media. We thought we had a Big Story, but it turns out the Russians Troops have full Passage Rights and are merely passing through Pyongyang and environs. No shots have been fired.
In other Russian/Chinese news...troops of both nations in the far NorthWest regions have been chasing Rebels who make it their home base. Co-operative rebel fighting....will last through the warmer months. It is unlikely the Rebels will be cornered soon, though. They have been evading capture for some years in the high mountains and valleys of the area.

BATTLE OF SAARLAND, MASSIVE CASUALTIES
French armies moved into Saarland and attacked our gallant German defenders over 4 days of intense fighting. Germany was victorious on the second day of battle, but was defeated the other three days. Heavy losses were suffered by both sides. The German commanding officer, Generalfeldmarschall Albrecht von Preussen, stated the Germans could have carried all the battles if the 1st Bavarian Army had not moved to counter the Austrian invasion of Bavaria.
FIGHTING IN WUERTEMBERG
The 1st Bavarian Army, under General Ludwig von der Tann-Rathsamhausen, was marching to relieve the siege of Munich when it suddenly encountered an Austrian army oustide of Stuttgart. The Austrians under Albrecht von Osterreich were attacked by the 1st Kavalry Korps acting as an advanced guard. Our brave cavalrymen were decimated by the ruthless Austrians, but their sacrifice gave the Bavarians enough time to properly enter the field of battle.

New Provisional President
After the death of Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte, Provisional President and Former Emperor, the election of a new Provisional President was necessary. In the wake of the current war, former Senator, war hero in the Greek war and current Marshal Patrice de Mac-Mahon was elected to the Presidency. It is hoped that he will lead France to victory in returning our French kin to our nation and return our nation to prosperity in this time of crisis.
OOC - Zombie Napoleon should no longer be in charge, but he still holds his post. He is also a 3-star. I've read through the files, and I believe that Mac-Mahon should obviously be the President. I also believe there is no Prime Minister until Jules Ferry in 1880. Ollivier should've been done in 1870 if that's what AbsEnd means. Kensai, didn't you at one time come up with a script for forcing a ruler switch? I'm just short of illiterate when it comes to code, but if there is a script already made, I can try to convert it to what I need.

Let me be Kensai here for a moment and suggest this may be working as designed. If there was anyone so attached to power that mere death would not deter him from clinging on to office with his cold dead hands, it was His Imperial Majesty Napoleon III.
