Spanish Fleet Retreats!
3rd Fleet Maintains Persuit
Following its aprehension by the Italian 3rd Fleet, the Spanish fleet which had been menacing Sardinia has turned tail and retreated towards Spain at maximum speed. Due to the Spaniards lead, even the 3rd Fleet's fastest ships have been unable to catch up with the Spanish fleet.
Italy will maintain a close watch on the Spanish fleet untill it reaches it's home ports, and the ships of the 3rd Fleet have been instructed to keep their guns loaded and maintain an attack formation.

In addition, the troop ship Genoa has docked at Sardinia and is unloading elite marines to strengthen the islands defences against future Spanish raids.
Ambassador to Spain meets with Spanish officals
In the meantime, the Italian ambassador in Madrid has demanded a formal apology from the Spanish government.
In addition, the ambassador has requested that Spain make an act of good faith in order to satisfy the Italian government that their fleet's actions where indeed acts of desperation caused by the sailors desire to flee the despot General AI.
The Italian government will be satisfied by either a cash payout to cover the 3rd Fleet's costs, or the Spanish abandoning their unessesary treaty with Germany.
Allies Thanked
The King wishes to express both his personal gratitude and that of the nation for the British and French navies swift responce to his call for assistance.
In addition, he hopes that the British and French fleets will continue to render assistance by joining the persuit of the Spanish fleet.

Trade grows
In the last month Italian traders have began selling wine in Paris, and Grain in Sarajevo. It is expected that these ventures will enrich both the traders and the Italian Government, who stands to gain a huge tax windfall.
Mines Open
The Government's campaign of increasing Italy's mineral output has continued with several new mines being opened in the Naples district.

Also Germany your allies will not back you, you will find that you will be alone and my yourself....
Also Spain by the way i back Frances, and Italys Ultimatiums, if you do not comply we will be forced to act forth right...

The Ottoman Finance Secretary showed today to His Magnificence the Sultan the first trucks full of goods ready to be exported to other countries! This magnificent achievement wouldn't have been possible without the expert help of British specialists who have been teaching us the ways of International Trade!
In a solemn speech, His Magnificence the Sultan expressed His unlimited gratitude to His Friend and Fellow Ruler, the Great King Soundwave!! The riches that the aforesaid goods will bring to the Ottoman Empire will allow us in the years to come to repay the British Empire for all the services provided...
The Grand Vizier Cyrion then explained the situation in the Empire: "Great work is underway, but it will indeed be long before our proud country can be compared to the other european nations without shame...
The main focus in the next years will be the removal of the corruption that is currently draining the Sultan's coffers... We sadly have to deplore the long time it takes to gather all the laws we need to build an efficient legal system!! It is to be feared that without foreign help we won't see this achievement in our lifetime..."
Speaking about the russian fleet cruising near Istanbul, he added: "We would like the foreign nations to ask for our permission to cross the straits which are in our territorial waters, permission we would be glad to grant!! Not that we would like to (or even could  ) forbid them to cross the straits, be it would be a sign of goodwill and it would allow us to warn our citizens so that they are not terrorized by the unexpected sight of these juggernauts, and to avoid our fishermen boats to be caught in the backwash the battleships create ..."
OOC:
about the new units: they look really great, but I'm not sure I like my conscripts to bear shields depicting colours others than mine (not that they leave the cities really often )
Of course, the tank shields might be the same problems, but I don't think I need to worry about it right now
