News from France:


France declares neutrality

France is from this day a neutral nation. Due to a number of events all political leaders have agreed that this was a right decision to take. Political events in Europe are so full of hate and human folly that our nation have got enough of it.
France is therefore no longer a part of the Mediterranean alliance, and have no commitments to any country what so ever. Our nations independence and real democratic values will be defended at any cost but we will not again join an alliance. France's ultimate goal is peace and understanding, and acting on behalf of this our decision has been made.

Germany Greets French Nuetrality With Suspision

The German Nation, charter member of the CUE, holds suspisions against France for her sudden call for nuetrality. Though many other CUE nations are nuetral to the issue, Germany feels that France cannot be trusted with her word, first saying one thing, only to go back with no notice and do but the opposite. Bastiate, the German CUE embassador to France was said to be booted out when he asked for reassurance concerning this issue. He is reported to have said, 'beware of lions in donkey skins.'

Budapest Ammunition Factory Opens!

One of many that have been built this year, the new Budapest Ammunition Factory is said to host state of the art machinary to manufacture weapons of war should the need arise. Boilderh Lunartic, the factory overseer, is quoted to have said, 'and we don't just make weapons. No, we can make everything from nuts to bolts, houses to barracks, and even the kitchen sink!' 'This is just the begining,' Ioannes is quoted, 'CUE will be the arsenal for democracy, a beacon of hope in a world of promise breakers.'

Markets Continue Up

The Berlin Market went up yet again, for the third consecutive time this week. Anylists are saying this phenomanon is due to anything from a sense of unity in Germanic nations to France's betrayl of her Mediterannean Allies. Some caution was seen however, as war in the upcomming years is greatly feared. But the sense of power and faithful allies has calmed such fears, adverting a depression.

EXTRA, EXTRA! Extra number of the Rome Times: Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

France betrays her friends and declares herself "neutral"!

Today France declared that she is now "Neutral" and that she "forfiets" the meditereanean alliance.
This move baffles millitary analysists and diplomats alike, Giovanni Loeratio an expert in strategical diplomacy is said to have concluded that "France has just signed her own death sentence", when asked for a comment the same expert said that:
"Obviously France is counting fully on those which she has previously hinted to as her friends, the russians, to defend her (which makes her neutrality a joke), but I wonder: Why turn your back on your allies, who are bound by a treaty to protect you, to instead rely on a completely different nation, which is currently allied to Frances' enemies and which isnt bound by any official treaty?
Apparently France is pretty sure that Russia will help her, but even if they do (which I doubt as they have nothing binding them to do so other than, possibly, the prommises from the russian foreign emmisary), will that be enough?
France has just gotten two new enemies (Italy and Turkey), adding them to the two she allready has (Germany and Brittain) she has effectively gotten every major non-neutral power in europe beside Russia against her."

The president of Italy, Henriko Lohmandero, stated in an interview (fully featured on page 3) that:
"France was never a good ally, the prommises made by the former premier: Poincare Vietminh, was not followed by his succesor, the cooperation between France, Italy and the Ottoman Empire was marked by several ultimatums from France, which the other Italy and Turkey refused.
Finally the little german prank of threating France, should she not uphold the meditereanean alliance (which several officials in germany has confessed was done solely to divide the alliance) ended with France leaving it."


France has proven to be very easily manouvered by her enemies as well as very distrustfull to her friends. It is the belief of this paper that France now, in the words of Giovanni Loerattio, "has signed her own death sentence"...

Germany starts millitaristic buildup!
In response to France getting rid of her allies Germany has started a gigantic buildup of her millitary.
In all probability this should be taken as a serious warning to the now isolated Republic of France, to buildup her defences...

American President assassinated!
The United States is in shock after the death of President William McKinley, from wounds suffered when he was shot last week in Buffalo, New York. Mckinley is the third US President to be assassinated.

The fatal incident ocurred at the Pan-American Exhibition in Buffalo on 14 September. As the President greeted admirers he was shot at point-blank range by Leon Czolgosz, the son of Polish immigrants. The mantle of the presidency was passed to the vice-president, Theodore Roosevelt.

Italy formaly sent her condoleances to the people of the United States.

BRITAIN BACKS FRANCES NEUTRALITY!!!

Today Mr Smith issued a shock statement that will no doubt have experts in berlin scratching their heads trying to figure out why??
Mr Smith today affirmed french neutrality saying that removing yourself from a conflict is never a bad thing to do in the name of peace and tranquility. As a mark of respect to france for this brave move britain is now proposing a block on german warships going through the english channel. The Battleships HMS Warspite, HMS Corageous and HMS Indomitable have taken up positions in the english channel with orders to sink any german warship or troop transport coming through. We at this paper are wondering what caused this reversal in policy from mr smith who is obviously oblivious to the harm he could be doing to relations with germany. He said that german warships would now be kept in the north sea "where they belonged" and never allowed to be a threat to france again. The german battleships that are already through will be hunted down and asked to leave, and then destroyed if they do not.

It seems at this paper that britain just doesnt know what it is doing. To offend someone like germany for the sake of france??? This editor is baffled

The Spanish people have great joy over the British statement. Spain is pleased that its two closest friends have found compromise. The Spanish people are also relieved that the threat of Spain becoming a battleground between the two powers has been removed.

In other news, King Caspian has agreed to review the political situation in Spain. The aim of which is the eventual modernisation of the Spanish government to bring it in line with other great nations in the 20th century.

Germany Stands by Denunciation

Suprising many, Ioannes and the German delagates of CUE stand by their denunciation of France's actions, saying, 'if France cuts off and stabs her friends in the back, how can we trust her to remain nuetral, or for that matter even remain humain to her peoples, particularly Germans who dwell under French rule?'

CUE response to Britain Lukewarm

Last week, the military director of CUE forces ordered the withdrawl of CUE warships from the channel. 'We don't want any conflict between CUE and Britain for now, and we shall concede this demand as of this time.' More diplomats have been sent via safe conduct to the Isles to discuss the issue and the outrage of the German peoples.

BRITAIN DEMANDS GERMAN RECOGNITION OF FRENCH NEUTRALITY!!!

Today Mr Smith demanded that Ioannes recognise the french peoples right to neutrality in any military actions undertaken by european nations. He rubbish rumours of french mistreatment of german speaking peoples living under their rule. He said that this rumour was obviously started by some malicious person who wished war between the two sovereign states of france and germany.
"The german affirmative responce to frances neutrality will be delivered by next month or britain will break off diplomatic relations with you." The words were heard uttered by Mr Smith in his palimentary address today. This is sending a stark warning to germany who until recently had been our closest allies to keep their hands off our, until now enemies, france. This is a remarkable turn of events and now europe is balanced on a knife edge. It is just determine to be seen when everyone will fall off.

In other news the german navy was chased out of the channel by the british warships. It is reported that they went peacfully and the way has now been blocked by 3 battleships to keep them out.

Germany Renounces Trade Ties

Earlier this October, the leading state of the CUE renounced trade relations with Britain. Germany's military advisor is quoted to have said, 'as long as we're blocked from the Atlantic, we will not let any trade come from Britain to us. We have trade capabilities with other great nations, and we will not be lackies to Britian. Germany stands by her attitude against France.'

Germany Leadership of CUE in Doubt

The Democratic CEU parliament was in heated debate yesterday as anti and pro French factions clearly developed. Most of the pro-French factions though say they are willing to take France on should there be any proof of their misdeads. This may cause some scisms in this August body, though everyone is trying to keep it together despite the differences. Regardless however, troops are now being moved to Strasburg to brace for the possiblity of French hostility. 'Such matters should not be taken lightly, even if concocted' Bringham Boulder, Defense coordinator of CEU forces said.

All said and done, Germany remains in control of the Union, but only barely. Only two more votes in the Senate would tip the scales to the pro-French faction.

Build-up in Nancy Reported!

Unconfirmed reports of a troop build-up in Nancy, France have been heard throughout the Central European Union. Many fears have been aspoused and many Germans are fearing for their families and homes. Some have already moved out. Byum Gyu, an imigrant to Western Germany, is one moving out. 'I want my family safe. I'll be glad to fight the evil empire if need be, just as long as my family is safe.

Nope, don't have the game. Sent it to Emperor Henriko about a week ago (before I was struck cold, so to speak).

Boy, gosh! Do a lot of things happen in here, while you're away!
I hope we are NOT yet witnessing the dramatic decline of the glorious democratic alliance?

In that case, we ask our friends of the alliance to cool their heads and we heartily welcome france's neutrality, which means opportunities for greater arrangements with the russian government, without the loud inconvenience of a demanding italian emperor...

BTW, we took Stockholm last turn, if I didn't mention that, but failed to deliver Bucharest just yet, and lost a horseman in the attack (our first casualty). Bucharest will most probably fall on the next turn, however.

BRITAIN FURIOUS AT GERMAN IMPUDENCE!!!

Britain today issued their strongest ever warning to the german government to affirm french neutrality. Also Mr Smith reacted furiously to germany cutting off trade with "our fair country" He has ordered that all trade ships be diverted to france which led to some odd goings on because some british ships were docked in german ports and were just unloading when the order came to them so they had to just pull off with no warning. 5 Germans are believed to have lost their lives in these sudden movenments. All shipping has begun converging on french shores awaiting orders to put ashore its trade envoys. Britain has vowed to stand by france in its hour of need and to help eject any german raids into their territory. This is the starkest warning yet of the most amazing turn about in alliances europe has ever seen.


(france i have 2 ships worth of about 14 trade units coming your way please clear your coastal regions so i can unload them and get them to paris quickly for a bonus to both of us thank you.)
