When a province switches control, the fleet is just forced into the nearby seazones. However, when a colony contains a fleet, and natives destroy it, they destroy all the units in the province (I have lost several small fleets attempting to prevent piracy). It is possible that England, in a bid to prevent piracy in colonial possessions (perhaps in Africa?), sends their fleet there, and the colony is destroyed, killing the fleet in port.
As far as I recall a certain amount of the fleet gets disbanded on AI bankruptcy, as an overly large fleet is the most common reason of bankruptcies among the AI.
Agreed. I remember a game I was playing as Scotland and England went bankrupt while at war with both me and France. They disbanded the entirety of their navy, including 40+ big ships.
Hmm, it looks like this will be post 666 in this thread. Interesting.
Anyway, on topic. I made you a table of contents...

Thanks, TSSL. I probably should have been doing that all along but I've been lazy. I've copied your post to the first page of this AAR and am working on the hot links. Hopefully, it won't repaginate the AAR and screw up the list.
Right now I am rooting for Frankfurt, mainly because I'd love to see them gobble up all the HRE members west of the Urals. Just for the sheer absurdity of a HRE located entirely within Asia. With a bit of luck it might be doable.

So in the religion view, yellow is for catholic and blue for protestant christianity? Amusing that most of continental Europe is protestant but England of all nations stands as one of the last bastions of the catholic church...
BRITISH ISLES (1708-1732)
Relations between England and Leinster had never been very good. King Jordan the Wise had been crowned King of Ireland in the 13th century, and the English monarchs had continued to lay claim to that title ever since, though they held no more than a foothold on the Emerald Isle.
They had lost even that after the Irish revolt of the 1670’s. The late 17th century had been turbulent for the English, with a wave of insurrections and a serious financial crisis in 1690. But by 1708, King Arthur von Chelyabinsk decided the Kingdom was once again on a stable footing and it was time to make his title in Ireland more than just an empty word called out by the heralds. He declared war on the small western state of Connacht, but he knew that the Lord Protector of Leinster, Naomhan O Diubhgeannain would not allow the English to return to the island without a fight. Arthur’s allies in Bremen and Danzig dutifully declared war on both Irish states, while Naoman’s longtime friends in Bohemia rallied to their defense. The Iroquois, who Leinster had freed from their subjugation by the Hurons some years earlier, also attacked England, but this was of little significance.
Previous wars between England and Leinster had been fought in and around the British Isles, but both nations and their allies were now colonial powers. As a result, the war was fought in many venues, with some of the most intense conflict occurring between the Bohemians and the English in South America.
Southern South America in January, 1712:
This did not work to King Arthur’s advantage, because he had relied heavily on his slight numerical edge in large warships to win the day on the waters. However, Leinster’s new twodecker ships proved difficult for the English wargalleons to handle, and Leinster and Bohemia had far more frigates and merchantmen. As a result, his enemies were far more flexible and maneuverable. He was not able to transport enough troops to Ireland to defeat Leinster’s forces there, and eventually they lost control of the Irish Sea. The resulting blockade was a contributing factor in a major financial collapse at the end of 1711.
The vultures began to circle the English in 1712. Before the year was out, Bohemia had seized control of all of English South America. The new Lord Protector of Leinster, Cathair O Cairbre persuaded Norway and Sibir to join the attack on the English. The French too declared war, seeking to expand their colonies in North America at the English expense, and convinced Frankfurt to join in as well. Although landlocked Frankfurt was little danger to England, it posed a major threat to Danzig and Bremen, and the latter was already struggling to defend against the Bohemians and Irish. The only bright spot for the English was their successful seizure of Brittany from Leinster.
By the end of the following year, England was facing bankruptcy again and the French had brought the Hungarians into the war against them. With his all his plans in ruins, King Arthur began to negotiate settlements with his enemies in 1714. He surrendered the Turk Islands and Patos to Leinster and gave up Neva to Norway. But the struggle with Bohemia, Sibir, Hungary and France continued for several more years. With Leinster’s twodeckers out of the picture, they succeeded in fighting Bohemia and Hungary to a standstill, but Sibir compelled them to release their remaining Baltic possessions as Finland, which promptly joined the Holy Roman Empire. Foolishly, the French remained in the war when everyone else had made peace, and found themselves in grave danger when their neighbor Berry declared war on them. Instead of gaining colonial territory in North America, they lost Kwedech and its lucrative fur trade to the English in 1719.
Leinster did not remain at peace for long. In 1722, their alliance with the Iroquois drew them into war with Sweden, which had attacked the Iroquois’ Creek allies. The strong relationship Lord Protector Cathaoir had built with the Holy Roman Emperor, Ablak Khan von Hesse-Kassel brought Sibir in as well. The Castillians joined the Swedes, no doubt hoping to expand their possessions in Central America at Leinster’s expense.
Initially, the war went well for Leinster and its native allies, and by 1723, the Swedes suffered the humiliation of being forced to restore territory to a savage native American tribe. But the complexion of the war changed drastically when Gustav III of Sweden persuaded the Etrurians to take their side in the war.
The winter of 1723-24 saw a bitter series of naval defeats for Leinster. With its naval superiority broken, Leinster lost the strategic island of Epewitk to Castille, while Etruria seized its sugar-producing island of St. Thomas and its central Atlantic resupply post in Azores to Etruria. But the canny move of getting Etruria out of the war enabled the Irish to forcus on Sweden once again, and by 1730, they had been utterly routed. Sweden lost its last possessions in North America to Leinster in the peace treaty.
For the English, peace failed to bring prosperity. Like many of the rulers of the early 18th century, King Arthur sought to establish absolute authority in his kingdom, but suffered a significant backlash. One of the unusual aspects of the English colonial strategy had been the attempt to spread the sophisticated Cosmopolitaine culture of the ruling class, and the English monarchs had encouraged French settlement. But the French were often Protestant, and when faraway England was distracted by war, economic troubles, and internal power struggles, many of its colonial residents rebelled and sought union with the French. The fact that there were French rebellions in Leinster’s North American colonies at the time suggests there may have been French crown involvement. But it was not only the French who were discontented with the Kingdom of England. Other parts of South America aligned themselved with Leinster. The north of Britain rebelled, resulting in the rebirth of a small Scottish realm in 1729. Thus, England’s power appeared to be waning in the early part of the 18th century, while its Irish rivals grew stronger.

Brilliant update. Enjoyed seeing a small Scottish re-emergence, although it looks to be still born as is sadly often the case. Leinster did well to guard against the English aggression in Ireland, while remaining in the colonial game.
Best line: "King Arthur von Chelyabinsk".
Says it all about this awesome alternate history when you see three different cultures in one name.

Those colonial maps still look messy and they'll probably only get worse when the locals start deciding that they can govern themselves. Hopefully Connacht will end up getting eaten somehow by Leinster and we'll see a united Ireland before the game ends.
Interesting to see that Frankfurt has finally reached the coast from the looks of it.
