Alarmed by the dire news coming from the Low Countries, the Sultan, His Magnificence Abd ul-Hamid II, ordered His most trusted secretaries to join Him for an emergency Council of State!
Not knowing really well the whereabouts of the events happening so far to the west, the Sultan first asked his most knowledgeable foreign specialists to explain the situation.
The first Counsellor to stand in front of the assembly was the respected Hossein ibn Ibrahim: "Beware, o Light of the Believers, for the Germans are treacherous indeed!! The British and French kindly invited them to come to discuss the peaceful future of the Low Countries. But did the Germans even condescend to come to Leeuwarden? No, they prefered to stay at home, faking to accept the decisions of the Conference while hatching sinister plots!! And then they suddenly attacked the small and armless nations of the Low Countries with ruthless violence, plundering, burning and killing, in a whirldoom of senseless slaughter!! Who knows now where the next blow will fall? What can stop the German army if the free nations don't stand at the British side??"
The Counsellor Khalid al-Kamil then faced the crowd that had been stirred by the fiery words of Hossein ibn Ibrahim:"Nonsense!! You think you can fool the Sultan, Allah's chosen, with your ridiculous lies? But all the learned ones knows that what you call Leeuwarden Conference is nothing more than a decoy! It was indeed a private meeting between the British and the French, to which nobody was invited!! And it was then that they decided to share the Low Countries between themselves, peaceful and armless though they were, as you did so kindly remind us... It was only when the French armies had taken and plundered the Belgian cities that the German troops, hastily mobilized, could come to the help of the dutch citizens to protect their country from the British potential invaders!! And now I ask you: why should we betray a Friend, who has always stood at our side and hasn't done anything wrong in this matter, for a Nation which only wants to enslave us as she did with so many others??"
The Sultan then retired with His Foreign Secretary, the dreaded Hassan i Sabbah. On the next morning, a letter was sent to the european Nations...

Speaking for His Magnificence the Sultan Abd ul-Hamid II, Hassan i Sabbah, Foreign Secretary!!
The situation in the Low Countries leads us to fear an oncoming war! We are too far from this places to know who is right and who is wrong in this matter, but we are sure that a war could only bring misery for all nations, even those that are far away!
We believe it is not too late yet to avoid this war if all nations work together to find a peaceful solution!! For this purpose, the Foreign Secretaries of all the european Nations sould meet in a Peace Conference! For the location of this Conference, we propose the City of Istanbul: as the Ottoman Empire is neutral and so far away to have no personal interest in the Low Countries, we believe it would be a wise location...
Furthermore, the Sultan wishes to share with his fellow rulers his thought on the matter:
The British don't want to see a German held Netherland as it would give the Second Reich a good base to attack Great-Britain; the main problem seems to be the big port of Amsterdam which would allow the Germans to shelter their fleet in view of the english coasts!
The German don't want the British to occupy the Netherland as it would give them a foothold on the continent. And the Germans, according to the latest news, currently occupy all the dutch cities.
It seems that the problem would be less critical if neither the Germans nor the British were occupying the city-port of Amsterdam!! So, if all the concerned nations agree, we propose a transfer of the city of Amsterdam to a neutral country vowing never to join either country in the eventuality of a future conflict! As the Low Countries are much too far from the Ottoman Empire for the turkish police contingents to come quickly, Spain, if it's neutrality is confirmed and if the King agrees, would seem to be the perfect choice for this role...
The Sultan is willing to discuss the matter in details in His palace during the Conference.
Thank you for your attention!
Hassan i Sabbah, Foreign Secretary

Brussels occupied
After the German troops blocking the way were withdrawn, the French Army could advance on Brussels unimpeded. The communist rebels had hastily erected impressive fortifications; however, once more the French Army proved itself an efficient and powerful modern force, pounding the defending garrison into oblivion. A regiment of Chasseurs then marched through the streets of Brussels, to the cheers of an ecstatic population.
Third Republic applauds Ottoman initiative
Winterfritz, in an address to the Chamber of Deputies today, commended the Turkish peace conference to be held at Istanbul. 'The Turks have shown us how civilized nations should resolve their problems. We can only hope that the Germans will agree to attend, and not condemn the Istanbul Treaty to the same fate as the one signed at Leeuwarden.'
Economy booming
It has only been four months since the Plan Orange economic reforms were introduced, but the French economy is already showing marked growth. French population too is on the rise, and the Third Republic is now the third most populous nation in Europe, after Germany and Britain.
Coup in Spain
International observers today were shocked at the news that King Sun Tzu of Spain has been deposed by members of the army. While the news is not yet certain, it appears that General AI has seized control of the Spanish government. This would explain the unannounced presence of Spanish warships off Sardinia. All France anxiously awaits the developments inside their troubled neighbour, and the Mediterranean Fleet has been dispatched to Sardinia to investigate the Spanish presence.
Moroccan campaign continues
French colonial armies continued their advance towards the city of Fez in Morocco today. It is expected that the Sultan's capitol will fall and his corrupt regime finally be eradicated in just a few months.
