The Treaty of London is signed between the United Kingdom of the Kingdom of Paraguay, which entered them into a formal alliance. The British also began to supply the Paraguayans with large amount of arms, and a loan to help stabilise their economy.

Massive changes to the Royal Navy and the Reserve Fleet are pursued in 1873, looking to bring the entire Navy better in line with modern conveniences of steam. Hundreds of Sailors are rotated on and off sailing ships, allowing them to be better acquainted with the new ships, showing that the Royal Navy would be ready to change over to all steam at any point they needed to.

The French Empire, at the behest of the new Emperor Napoleon IV, who was showing to be a much more capable administrator than his father was, orders that the recent submarine program be taken a look at and overhauled. The men began to pour over designs, not finding the perfect one, Stefan Drzewiecki was eventually appointed to lead the project. After asking for gratuitous funds from the French government, he is able to demonstrate his man-powered submarine, which could carry two self-propelled torpedoes that could be fired when above water. A demonstration is done in Marseilles where an old frigate, due to be scrapped, was fired upon with the new submarine. After firing and sinking back under water, the torpedo impacted the ship, exploding against her hull, where it quickly capsised. Drzewiecki, who commanded the mission, brought the Submarine to the dock, where he was quickly swamped with questions about his working submarine.

In conjunction with the success of the naval program, the French looks to try and expand their own fleet to help support their own submarine construction. However, a rumour began to start, that quickly made its way through Paris. Thousands believed that the new Emperor sought to directly compete with London’s rule over the seas, and that this ambitious project was the first in a line of many shots across the British bow. This was supported by the announcement that Empress Beatrice, who gave birth to a new heir to the French throne, was to be relocating to Paris, to which the Emperor remarked, “It is the only place she should be.” This massive ship building project also involved the creation of a massive fleet of transport ships, capable of landing a large amount of soldiers across the Channel. The French also replaced the ships it sank during the Sweden expedition to the Ottoman Empire, but any of the pomp from this was ignored due to the French flexing of their watery muscles.

Continued efforts to expand the scope and the reach of the Spanish educational system are met with success after success as schools are opened across Northern Spain, teaching Spanish to the Catalan and Basque minorities. While a large group of reactionary forces are against this, and such things as “Catalan defense leagues” began to pop up, for the most part people were pleased that the government was taking a wide scale action against illiteracy in the nation, and having a simple, standardised education plan.

As Spain continues to undergo reforms of her armed forces, General Patricio Patrido Martos begins a massive campaign to try and push his own idea of reforms through the army. The movement begins to gain strength, and the government was almost ready to adapt the new policies, when it came out that General Martos wished to overthrow the Spanish Monarchy and establish his owner government. He was quickly removed from his position and exiled, along with his band of followers, greatly hurting the Spanish army’s ability to wage war.

A massive, wide-scale expansion of the Portuguese navy begins, looking to bring it to “be on par with other Naval Powers”. Such a move did not go unnoticed, as it seemed to be directed at the Dutch, a nation with which they had a naval gap and wished to close it, on order to maintain control of their own shores. Five ironclads, thirty-two frigates, and six transports were laid down, expected to be complete within a few years.

The Portuguese government, looking to try and promote the Army as a wise career choice, beings to send pamphlets to many houses across the country, calling for more men to serve in the name of the King. Several pacifist employees of the government, however, turn it into a scare campaign, telling people that they were nothing but blood thirsty murderers for joining the army. Desertion rates skyrocket from this move.
[-19,178 Regulars to Portugal]
The Netherlands, still focused on ensuring that their shores were well defended, orders a large new round of ironclad warships, ready to put them into the water by 1876, where they would patrol the Dutch shores diligently against any attacks - Mostly Portuguese - they might come to them.
[-£5,461,176 to the Netherlands. +7 Ironclads to the Netherlands in 3 turns.]
In Amsterdam, plans are laid for a fountain, which showed a majestic White Rabbit in mid hop through the water. When completed, it quickly became the symbol for luck, as hundreds through coins in the fountain, wishing for better luck or various other things. A few people would sing by it, but the gesture was mostly symbolic. Across the world, not many people understood why, for any reason, that this was made front-page news across the Netherlands.

On the shore of the North Sea, the Imperial German government announces that they are establishing a new port town, Wilhelmshaven, in order to host the Imperial Shipyards, Kaiserliche Werft Wilhelmshaven. While construction began, the Germans had problems attracting workers to the area. After forcefully moving some, work begins at the shipyard, starting work on a dual slipway, as the rest of the area was still being constructed, on two ironclad warships.
[-£1,501,650 to Germany. +2 Ironclads to Germany in 3 turns.]
With the Imperial Shipyard working, the rest of Germany’s shipyards quickly went to work, building a moderate expansion to the German Navy. Some orders had gotten confused, as several engines and screw propellers were sent to Bavaria, much to the confusion of the local workers, and it would take another year for them to be painstaking transferred up North to be installed into the ships waiting to be built.

The Treaty of Prague is signed between the Commonwealth of the Danube and the German Empire, settling issues over regards to stolen goods from Russia, as well as agreements over lost revenues from German companies. Bilateral relations were established between the two nations, bringing them closer to together in helping stability.
[You know, stuff.]
The Treaty of Rome is signed between the Ottoman Empire and the Kingdom of Italy, ending their brief war, and causing the Italians to gain control of the Vilayet of Tripolitania. The Italians and the Ottomans, which had agreed upon 15 million lira, was converted to Pounds Sterling, the international currency, and transferred to the Ottoman Empire, which signed the document thinking they would be gaining fifteen million pounds sterling. At the same time, the Italian 3rd Corps lands in Tripoli to help begin to transfer of administration to Italy. The Ottoman commander, given word from various other army leadership, ordered to fire upon all Italian ships and Italian soldiers. The Italian force in North Africa was able to easily defeat the Ottomans, and the Ottoman attempt to attack the Italian fleet is easily battered away by the trained gunners of Italy. Tensions mount between the two nations as Italy brings full control over Tripolitania, and still commands the ability to sink the Ottoman fleet.

In Florence, the Italian Capital, a large monument, a column with the names of every fallen soldier in the recent Italian-Ottoman War, was erected, showing that they had triumphed over the Islamic hordes. The favourable end for Italy only bolstered the Italians reaction to this new monument.

In Finland, a vote was held in order to determine women’s suffrage, where yes would allow full political emancipation of women, similar to what had happened in the United States, and a no vote to keep it as is. Both men and women were allowed to vote in this referendum, in theory, but after the first vote was held, it showed a majority of yes votes. The government, however, deemed “irregularities” in voting, and called the entire vote to be wrong, and demanded a new one. Thousands of women were denied the right to vote, and a comfortable majority returned a “no” result, and the government deemed it to be legitimate. Massive protests broke out across the entire country.

The Governing Senate, looking to expand the overseas reach of the Republic, brings about several bills to overhaul and begin the modernisation of the Russian Navy. Many of the older ships were decommisioned and broke up for various other uses, and two, newly designed, ships were laid down. Called an “Armoured Cruiser”, they were faster than any normal ironclad, and could sink all ships besides an ironclad in a one on one battle. A smaller amount of fast, screw-driven ships were also laid down and launched, helping to bolster the trade they had with abroad.

Along with the Naval reforms, the government also invests into the creation of a new Rifle, called the Berdan Rifle. Production soon ramps up across Russia, as factories begin to churn out the various different types needed for infantry, cavalry, and the cossacks. Artillery is also imported from the German Empire, as large amounts of money began to be spent, with the purpose of forming a truly modern army for the Republic.

A Ministry of Education was formed in Romania, with the Minister himself coming from Bessarabia, he had attempted to prove that he was literate enough, and one of the smartest men in the area, in doing so he would help expand the general knowledge to the entire country. It was the misfortune, to the government anyway, that he was indeed the smartest man in Bessarabia, but his education reforms destroyed the Romanian education system, making it ineffective, inefficient, and impossible to effectively teach anyone.
[-10% Education Rate to Romania.]
The Romanian Agricultural Assistance Act was passed and enforced by the King, making a new Ministry of Agriculture, which would provide subsidies for the purchase of modern farming equipment for all the farmers that applied to it. Word was not quick to get out, and several farmers took massive amounts of equipment from the government, and began to sell it to the people to get rich themselves. The government continued to supply them with equipment that they purchased. None of this equipment was used, and economic activity began to slow.
[-£3,515,160 to Romania. -0.45% Economic Growth to Romania.]
Fighting in Silistra continues between the Romanians and the Ottomans, in which the Romanians seemed to forget to send any orders to withdraw. Conflicted, the army moved forward a small amount, bringing Romanian control to the entire province, angering the Bulgars, who rallied for action by the Ottoman, and instead took matters into their own hands, banding together, and invading Romania, reaching the outskirt of Bucharest, ready to assault it to throw the Romanians out of their country.
Greece invests into the improvement of roads and other infrastructure in new newly-acquired Greek land. The Thessalian province, which some greeks scorned as not being a part of “Old Hellas” are not looked down upon as some now practice Islam, and some speak Turkish. While it would take more than roads and a sewer to connect these people, it was a positive start.

A state-funded archaeological excavation is done in the area of the former monument’s planned site. A large, multi-level home was found, and it was remarkably well-preserved through the ages. As that site was dug out, the memorial was moved across town, where, upon breaking ground, broken bits of pottery were found, causing construction to halt in order to try and excavate these new findings.
[+10 Prestige to Greece.]
The 2nd Accord over the Pergamon Excavations is held, with the Swedish setting up several excavation sites at Pergamon. The amphitheatre was nearly destroyed by heavy winds knocking over some of the material and work equipment, and several interns took several pieces of marble out of important pillars, causing them to collapse. The entire operation was called a failure, and they withdrew by the end of the year. The equipment left behind for the Ottoman Navy was far inferior to that which they already owned, so they simply threw it away.
[-£642,609 to Sweden. -£853,502 to the Ottoman Empire.]
Railroads from Constantinople to Sarajevo are laid down, showing that the Ottoman did indeed care for their Balkan subjects. While they began to support the Ottoman government more willingly, the lack of progress, and lack of railroads, in Asia Minor caused the Ottoman government to start losing support amongst the population there, who saw the government as pandering to the minority Christians, and ignoring the Turkish citizens, their main subjects.

An agreement between Canada and the United Kingdom is reached, in which Canada and the United Kingdom would share the costs of building a navy for the Canadian Navy. A massive, ambitious, project that would make Canada have one of the largest fleets in the Americas. The Parliament, thinking that Canada only had to sent a token sum, is soon dismayed as the costs spiral far out of control. Various shipyards in the United Kingdom took the orders, and the unique specifications that they had sent to them made them hire new engineers and designers, hiking the cost up. The bill itself, passed by both countries, said that a “nearly unlimited” amount of money would be sent for this construction. The Canadian House of Commons immediately begins a massive slashing of costs, refusing to take more than two ironclads, as massive, deep, cuts caused the economy to begin to falter from the sudden massive spending and the new cuts to get them back.

Attempts to bribe First Nations peoples with some small amounts of local autonomy do not appease them, as they see it nothing more than a chain that they can put around their necks. The Homesteading programme is cut due to the recent economic panic, and the Royal Canadian Army escorts are withdrawn from service, causing several of the homesteaders to fend for themselves. The ones that are able to escape leave their belongings behind as raids are a constant threat to them.

The Mexican-American Treaty of Friendship, Collaboration, and Trade, done in San Francisco, showed a long part from the previous treaties signed with Mexico, which was a humiliating loss to the Mexicans. Instead, both continues began to work together, as the United States began to arm the Mexicans with guns, and open up the West Point military academy for the Mexicans. This, along with several investments into a jointly-operated railroad line, and the electrification of the Presidential Palace in Mexico City, opened up new doors for the two countries, as they became major trading partners, and once again vaulting Mexico forward.

The Southern Railroad Act passes the Confederate Congress, which carves out parcels of land to railway owners, and attempts to standardise all rails in the nation to the Prussian Gauge. The independent companies, against such a move, stand against the Confederate Congress, and do not implement these reforms. The State Governments, wanting to work with the Congress, are unable to get the private companies to do anything, stalling all progress during the year for the Confederacy.
[-£742,502 to the Confederate States.]
The Confederate States and Mexico also sign a treaty in 1873. It was to help sooth the recent border issues that took place between the two countries. Both nations were able to establish a mutual border policy, pledging to protect the rights of each nation there adequately, and to control smugglers and bandits. Mexico also offers reparations to the families of those who had been killed by the recent actions. They also get to building a railway from Mexico City to Houston, and due to the war between the United States and the Confederate States, the only direct rail link from Richmond, Virginia and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania was from Richmond to Houston, to Mexico City, to San Diego, across the US Transcontinental Railroad, to St. Louis, and finally to Philadelphia.

In a move that showed that the Mexicans seemed to have no need for the increased militarisation and and army presence. On a wave of pacifism, Sebastián Lerdo de Tejada is elected President of Mexico, vowing to slash the military budget, as things can be solved with the pen, but never the sword, including the constant problem with the bandits in the North. In his speech to the crowds of Mexico City, he even pledged to disband the Rurales Police force.
Attempts to bring the American territories in the Caribbean to statehood fails in Congress, as none of them wish to admit these territories as and equal state due to their low population, and even more importantly, their low english-speaking population.
A national campaign to get the people to invest into the idea of a trans-oceanic canal that cuts through Nicaragua is well met with several investors, who begin to donate money to the United States government. Invitations to several American nations are sent out as well, looking to try and help along. With what little money they could spare, some Central American nations donate to the Canal’s funds, and offer to send some workers to help clear some more jungle.

As Confederation Day is celebrated throughout the Northern Andes, and rousing patriotic speeches are read throughout the Confederation, the average man begins to believe that this strange union of three countries may be more necessary and useful than previously believed. Pan-Andeanism was no longer just an idea among the ruling intellectual elite, and has begun a long journey to the hearts and minds of the Andean people.

The lumberjack who had stolen the 10 million pounds is apprehended buying some snacks at a small restaurant on the Panama Canal Zone. Colombian authorities arrested him, seizing the rest of the money he had stolen. While British authorities initially were opposed to allowing them to simply arrest a man on British land, they were given the snacks he had bought, and diplomatic relations were restored.

Brazil continues to encourage economic activity along the Amazon Basin, and after some minor government injections and subsidies growth continues to accelerate, helping the nation’s struggling economy, which needed any help it could get.
[+.21% Economic Growth to Brazil.]
Brazil also begins inflationary policies, as its national bank begins to pay off old bonds, phasing them out in favor of new, lower interest bonds. This leads to a surge of foreign investment, which begins to cause the Brazilian currency plummets in value. While life is harder for the average Brazilian, the national economy benefits greatly.

Argentina attempts tax reform, but conservatives in the legislature block the majority of the bill. After four months of debate, the final bill that is passed into law has a lot of language, but in reality changes nothing. Many frustrated representatives stormed out, declaring the tax system 'corrupt and damaging' to Argentine society.
With tax reform taken off the table, the Argentine Government instead seeks to plow ahead with changes to the Agricultural Sector. With no real reforms done, and demands to export livestock and crops, the Argentine Government began to steal it from the people, demanding that, no matter what, Argentina would be a meat and crop exporting nation, even if it meant starving the people.

In Chile, two measures were taken to tackle the current crisis. The first of which was to slash government spending to help aid in paying off debts, and the next was to raise taxes by a small amount to ensure that all obligations could be met. The Chilean economy, with grim forecasts the year before, now begins to look upwards.

Despite a large amount of the engineers that worked on the Suez Canal moved to Nicaragua to help construct that Canal for the United States, a few French engineers and those who observed it began the start of an ambitious project. Starting from the city of Gabes, it was determined that a sea-level canal would be built to the interior, with the intention of flooding it and creating an artificial lake. A railroad was completed, thought to be temporary, out to the salt flats of Tunis, which would soon be underwater should the project be followed.

Danish attempts to establish a settlement near Liberia fails, as they deem such a colony to not be profitable in the long run, and not worth the time and money it would take to maintain it.
The Treaty of Illorin is signed between the United States and Sokoto, which included a large amount of weapons and and engineers being sent to the African country. The Sokot Government begins to implement the gradual drawing down of slavery, declaring that a large portion of the future slave population was now free due to children of slaves no longer being slaves. Other clauses, such as trade, are also implemented. One of the most shocking, however, was that the Americans had sent agitators, spreading the word of American Democracy and Freedom to the masses, causing the Sokot Government to murder them due to their ideas against their rule. They also killed all the engineers and assistants the United States sent, thinking that they would also spread the heresies of the country.

The Sokot Government attempts to bring local strongmen over to their side by offering incentives to join with them. As some begin to flip to their side, administrators from Sokoto proper begin to flow into the area, taking control. Angered, many tribes lead a revolt against Sokoto, demanding the re-establishment of the Bornu Empire.
Spain’s colonial borders continue to expand as the colonial government of Spanish Guinea brings control over areas to the south of it. This is done by sticking to the pre-existing border with France and using them to stay in contact with their army expedition. After a few short battles, a large amount of natives were displaced and Spanish settlers began to move into this area.
Small school villages are established in Angola and Mozambique in order to provide the the local natives education that was, in theory, the same as the one offered to the native Portuguese people. They were jammed with catholic missionaries, all of which taught Portuguese. Incentives were given to learn Portuguese, but there was a major backlash against this by the natives, who felt that the Portuguese were trying to destroy their culture.

In an area known to the world as O Golfo de Santa Maria da Conceição, or Ezorongondo by the natives, is quickly taken over by the Kingdom of Spain, proclaiming it Golfo de Ballenas, or Gulf of Whales.

The Italian 4th Corps, now with the war against the Ottomans over, are quickly sent to Italian East Africa in order to return control to the colonial government. Talks of an uprising on Zanzibar island do not materialise, and the large invasion force is once again able to wrest control from the rebels who control the area. A local strongman, who had been inspiring the revolts, was captured by the Italians, pacifying the area, with no real outlook for future revolts.
The Majeerteen Sultanate, which had begun to receive Danubian ambassadors, offering large amounts of weapons and money. While they accept this, along with copious amounts of liquor, are able to get them to sign a series of special treaties, that incorporate them into the Commonwealth as a Federal Territory, giving them their own special rights, but still subordinate to the Commonwealth Government. There is some resistance to this, but Danubian marines are able to keep them at bay.
Abyssinia announces that the Imperial Army Reserve is to be founded, to act as the main guard against any incursions against their territory. Bolstered by the incursions into the Somali territory, a small amount of men were put on the rolls, as many were able to bribe their way out of it.

The most monumental change in 1873, came with the singing of the Treaty of Kabul. The former Emirate of Afghanistan was transformed into the Barakzai Empire, establishing control over the areas of the former Durrani Dynasty, granted to them by the United Kingdom, presumably over the recent uprisings against the British Crown was a highly motivational factor for this. Land was ceded to Russian protectorates to ensure that current border disputes were handled. The Republic of Russia was also awarded rights to a railroad through Persia, and special rights were awarded to Anglo-Persian and Anglo-Barakzai relations.

The new Barakzai Empire is able to extend control over some of the newly gained territories, although the government remains on a purely defensive stance during the year, as more soldiers are raised to help in the defense of the nation from outside attacks, and further incursions by the rebels into Barakzai territory.

In preparation for the post-Princely era of Indian politics, new administrative divisions were drafted, infrastructure improvements laid out, and a new, India was being prepared by the British. All it would take is an injection of funds, and rebuilding could begin.
In a show how how weak the Indian rebels were, the near slave-labour done by the various peoples under the yoke of Princely control, causes much of their internal support to collapse. Combined with the assaults by the Indians loyal to the British and the Royal Army, and Navy, cause a final collapse of the rebellion on the Indian subcontinent. What many have already called the The Second Sepoy Rebellion, it was sure to have lasting effects on the people on India moving forward, especially with the establishment of the Barakazi Empire.
The French Empire, sending accomplished diplomat Archaimbaud Dorais, was able to negotiate a treaty with his counterpart Tian Quang Gia. The border issues were settled, as the Vietnamese ceded land to the French, and Cambodia found itself directly administered by the French colonial office in Cochinchina.
An agreement is signed between Sweden and China, in which the Swedes would help to modernise the Chinese Army, in exchange for some trade rights. It would seem, however, that the Chinese had other ideas. The increased flow of westerners into China, as well as a starting to dwindle opium supply, caused riots in several cities, killing Swedish, and Russian, merchants. Trade began to decrease through the year as more and more of these bands of rioters broke out in several cities. The Swedish, acting quickly, seized the port of Xiamen and fortified it, to help defend against attacks by the Chinese army and the Chinese rebels.

Germany begins to pour money into the island of Jeju, expanding the port facilities and setting up a coaling station for the German Navy. The station that was set up had improper storage of the coal, and in a blaze of fire, the entire station exploded, expected to be from coal dust and a few of the workers smoking, destroying the facility, and damaging it beyond repair for that year.

The Japanese Imperial Bank was founded in 1873, showing the path forward for Japan was forged through adopting Western traditions.

Education reforms come to many of the schools in the Dutch East Indies, and some more schools are founded for the benefit of the natives.

Formal Declaration of War
Your excellencies,
following the killing of American experts over some harmless private remarks by the vile Sokot Caliphate the United States of America issue a declaration of war against this fiend of mankind. We will bring the agressors to justice!
Horatio Seymour, 18th President of the United States of America
The Convention of London (1874)
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, the French Empire, the German Empire, and the Russian Republic,
Viewing with grave concern the rapid and unsustainable establishment and expansion of colonial possessions on the African continent,
Acknowledging that such reckless expansion is detrimental to the continued stability of that continent and to cordial relations within Europe,
United in their belief that the process of colonization must be regulated and structured so as to ensure continued peace, the spread of civilization, and the well-being of the African race,
Hereby issue the following convention, to be ratified as standing policy of our respective nations and to be enforced by those nations as necessary.
I. The undersigned nations shall commit to a joint effort to halt the reckless and unregulated expansion of colonies, holdings, and protectorates within the continent of Africa. The following provisions shall be enacted against those nations deemed by joint agreement to be engaging in unregulated colonial endeavors.
II. The undersigned nations shall deny any aid or assistance to expeditions, vessels, or other national endeavors designed to promote or establish the unregulated colonization or subjugation of African lands or peoples.
III. The undersigned nations shall deny access to their lands, their ports, and their waterways to expeditions, vessels, or other national endeavors designed to promote or establish the unregulated colonization or subjugation of African lands or peoples.
IV. The undersigned nations shall, at their option, be permitted to levy trade sanctions, to issue embargoes, and to deny trade access to any nation deemed to be engaging in unregulated colonial practices in contravention of this proclamation.
V. The undersigned nations shall refuse to acknowledge the validity of any national claim to African lands save those ratified by joint agreement, and shall actively work toward the disestablishment of illegitimate claims and holdings on the African continent.
VI. The undersigned nations agree to convene in the city of Berlin in the summer of 1875, there to discuss the implementation of regulations and structures for the establishment and expansion of African holdings, colonies, and protectorates, to determine the validity of existing claims to African lands, and to create a consensus regarding future African endeavors.
We so agree and swear, on this day and at this time, acting on behalf of our respective national governments and in full accordance with their desires,
[X] - Her Royal Majesty, Victoria, Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland
[X] - His Imperial Majesty, Napoleon IV, Emperor of the French
[X] - Otto von Bismarck, Chancellor of Germany
[X] - Alexander Gorchakov, Chancellor of the Russian Republic

THE UNITED KINGDOM
of Great Britain and Ireland
[X] Her Majesty, Victoria, Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland
~Official Message from Her Majesty's Government
Treaty of French-Japanese Cooperation
In order to enter a new Era of cooperation between Emperor Meiji of the Japanese Empire and the newly crown Emperor Napoleon IV of the french empire.
The Japanese government propose the following agreement between our two countries:
1) The French Empire will provide training to the imperial Army of japan to get it up to a level with average European nations.
2) All the cost associated with the training (from advisers salaries to materials, etc) will be cover by the Japanese government
3)The French empire will provide military equipment to fully equip the Japanese Army. this equipment will include, weapons of french design such as: The famed chassepot rifle, new artillery of french design and the de Viller Gun.
4)The Japanese government will pay 50 % of the cost of the new equipment obtained and the French empire will pay the other 50% of the cost.
5) France and Japan will jointly pay for and jointly own a brand new modern steamship naval yard in Kure, Hiroshima. It will be call Kure Shipyard
6)The french empire will obtain the same trade rights as possessed in Japan mainland in any new territory integrated to the Japanese Empire.
signed by:
[X] His Imperial majesty, Emperor Meiji
[]His Imperial Majesty, Napoleon IV, Emperor of the French
It is the firm belief of the Kingdoms of Sweden and Norway that the 1874 Convention of London will be a pinnacle of African stability and progress. Destabilizing elements in Africa could have far reaching effects in Europe. Just like the ripples from a raindrop will spread at amazing speed, without proper organisation and discussion this African raindrop will send ripples over the entire globe. We can only expect a good and proper outcome from a convention led by such noble representatives.
The French Empire has taken the time to handsomely compensate the Swedish Navy for our sustained losses during the archaeological excavation to Pergamon. We extend our thanks to Emperor Bonaparte and offer our congratulations on his most successful wedding.
The Pergamon excavations have come to an end, and we are pleased to learn from the experiences of this expedition. In the future, our crew and equipment will be ready for the deepest chasm, the darkest tunnel and the most dangerous trap.
Further on, the Chinese situation appears to be highly volatile and dangerous. Swedish interests in the city of Xiamen, and all of China, will be preserved for as long as deemed necessary to ensure the stability of our trade and continued good relations with the Qing Emperor himself. We hope that a conclusive discussion can be held regarding this in the future.
- King Karl XV of Sweden and Norway
Though of course some differences will exist in my fathers plans and philosophy of government, the friendship with the Japanese people will not change. The French people have benefited from the friendship we have with the Japanese people and that policy will continue. This treaty will help make sure the Japanese people are able to defend themselves and help defend our joint interests in asia, as they exist. This will guarantee if a French ship runs into a bad storm, it will have a safe naval yard in Japan to repair at and to help maintain French trading ships in Asia. I am proud to sign this treaty.
[X] Napoleon IV ~ Emperor of the French
GM Note: Mini sometime soonish. Update will be fridayish. Get orders in Wednesday because I'm writing them all from a phone.
The Scramble for Africa
After a conference between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, the French Empire, the German Empire, and the Republic of Russia, where all met to talk about the future of the African Continent. While many thought this conference was to be about how it should be divided, prompted massive backlash amongst the other European nations. Ministers and other diplomats furiously attempted to gain access to the conference, which finally offered its deliberations only a few days after they met.
In a move that shocked the world, these four nations demanded that there was an instant stop to all "reckless" colonisation that was happening between the other nations of the world. It called for a convention to be held in Berlin in the Summer of 1875. This convention was easily ratified by the Russians, who had no desire to get into any conflict in Africa, and was instead focused elsewhere in the world. Emperor Napoleon IV, though against his best conventions, agreed to abide by the terms of this agreement. In Germany, the Reichstag, after some debate, agreed to advise the Kaiser to adopt such measures, which he did.
The easy sailing, however, stopped there. In the United Kingdom, the Conservative Government of Benjamin Disraeli was met with scorn over the position he took. In attempting to pass the bill through the House of Commons, many Conservative MPs denied to even consider it. Hugh Cairns, 1st Earl Cairns, split with Disraeli, to help form the Britain First Party, which quickly gained many followers from the Conservatives. The ruling government shortly collapsed, calling for elections. Seeing the split in the Conservatives, William Gladstone quickly stuck his tone for Liberalism. He began to frame the party that was against European colonialism in all of Africa in the first place. After some of his own party members began to grumble, he pledged to the House that, "As Prime Minister, I shall not pursue, in any case or reason, interference into Africa for any other reason than to protect our holdings there. We shall not act to support our own expansion, nor anyone else expansion. Conversely, the United Kingdom shall not stop or deny any movement other nations may take in Africa."
Gladstone's speech was hated by the Queen, who called him "A funny little man" of which she was "Not amused with his current actions." As the election came and gone and the votes were counted, the results were devastating for the Conservatives. The Liberals won a total of 398 seats, compared to the 187 seats won by the Conservatives, and the 67 seats won by the Britain First Party. Queen Victoria, seeing no option other than to appoint Gladstone, offered him the position of Prime Minister. By March, the new government was in power, and the "Speech on the Future of Africa" was given by Gladstone, detailing how he would stick to his pledge to not intervene in Africa one way or the other. He instead detailed how he was going to continue with reforms in India, continue to support the Dominion of Canada, and continue to consolidate British holdings in Arabia and Africa. While he announced that the recent declaration that was forged under the previous government would be signed by the United Kingdom, he pledged not to intervene, saying that the United Kingdom would not act unless more was done to prevent, completely, large scale European expansion into Africa. He was specific in saying that he would send no ambassador to Berlin, leaving the United Kingdom out of any kind of conference to divide up Africa.
The new British Cabinet, opposed to African Colonialism.
The news of this, however, sparked a massive surge of interest in the other countries. Hushed words behind the backs of France and Germany, the only other two nations capable, or showing any desire, to stop African colonisation, began to show that the remainder of the European Nations seemed willing to begin to divide up Africa on their own.
The most remarkable example of this was in Portugal, where nothing more than a simple politician boasted, "Without the United Kingdom, then we Europeans can do whatever we wish to Africa. France and Germany shall not act. Portugal's Flag will stretch across the African Continent!"
Newspapers about the new British Government were printed daily, emboldening thousands of people, as demonstrations for the expansion of colonial holdings quickly became the most hot topic. In the Commonwealth of the Danube, the Federal Parliament passed a neatly unanimous measure to try and release funds for the government to pursue more colonial holdings. The Suez Canal, long open to all ships, was closed to most European nations, under French fears that they would begin to expand their own colonial holdings. While French, German, and British ships still passed freely through, other ships were halted, stopped, and told they could not pass. The sudden loss of this vital trade route for many nations sparked a panic, as money began to dry up. Businesses across Europe began to close their doors, as the Suez was vital to their operations. The only nations not effected from this general downward swing was the United Kingdom, which had begun talks about reforming themselves from being dependant on Colonial income, still had access to the suez and the world's largest merchant marine, ensuring that their goods got delivered around the works, and Russia, which was able to simply bring more trade in from China over land.
[Europe is in a Recession.]
Not to be deterred, European governments knew that this was the time for action. With the British out, all of them began to show the rumblings of gathering resources and supplies. Many knew by the summer time hundreds of ships would be leaving port, guarded by escorts, with new businesses and merchants, to expand their own Colonial Empires in order to bring more money back home to the mother countries.
The Scramble for Africa, has begun.
Here's how it goes, and here is how it will stay. The United Kingdom shall not receive any new orders until a new Ministry is put into place. France and Germany do not have any new orders until a Conference is held in Berlin in 1875 (no you may NOT speed it up). The United Kingdom may not attend this conference, but they are authorised to "Protect" their colonies (that can be as loose as they may wish to interpret it), but they cannot actively expand in Africa. The United States and the Confederate States will receive a new order in 1875 to play around in the Caribbean, Pacific, or Latin America. As of right now, Italy, Spain, the Ottoman Empire, the Netherlands, Danubia, Sweden, Portugal, and Brazil get 1 extra "Scramble for Africa" order, which can be used on whatever they want in Africa. Improvements, expansion, you name it. At the same time, Japan and Russia gets an "Imperialism" order, which they can use on any unciv or uncolonised nation in Asia and the Pacific. Let the scramble begin!

Preparation of the United States of America
People of America,
the desaster in Sokoto and the crisis in our past were signs for our weakness and sadly our limited focus. We sealed ourselves in a can with almost no way out. We restrained ourselves why no one else does it. That restraint has to fade and from this moment on we will change that. After the darkness comes, as my predecessor has said, the dawn. We will prepare for that dawn.
The first thing we will do to accomplish this is the expansion and modernization of our naval forces. For a great country like ours bordering the most important bodies of water on earth our navy is weak and small. We have to change that and combine it with the expansion of our merchant marine. The world hungers for our goods, American goods and we have to provide them. The world hungers for our freedom, American freedom and we shall share it.
We have to invest into the world so that the world can enrich us in turn. We have to proceed with the canal but also improve our security and possibilities. We will make the world witness a new dawn:
The dawn of the American Age!
May God bless the United States of America
Horatio Seymour, 18th President of the United States of America
OOC: I apologize, but I'm afraid I'll need to withdraw due to time constraints; I'm certain that my lack of IC in recent turns (in both this and 1901) has been rather apparent, which has been a consequence of this. Thanks for your good work running the game and patience fielding my many questions, Fry, and good luck to everyone.
Brief history of transport in Russia
In the early 1830s Russian inventors father and son Cherepanovs built the first Russian steam locomotive. The first railway line was built in Russia in 1837 between Saint-Petersburg and Tsarskoye Selo. This railway has been described as a "toy" railway, as it had no economic, political or social impact on the Russian Empire.
The Department of Railways, later part of the Russian Ministry of Communications, was created in the Russian Empire in 1842 in order to oversee the construction of Russia's first major railway line, the Moscow–Saint Petersburg Railway. The railway linked the imperial capital Saint-Petersburg and Moscow and was built between 1842 and 1851. Track gauge was 5 feet (1524 mm) and this became the Russian standard gauge.
On 15 June 1865 the Ministry of Communications absorbed the Department of Railways. In the 1860s and 1870s, Pavel Melnikov, Russia’s first Minister of Communications, played a key role in the expansion of the railway network throughout European Russia. With foreign help railroad lines were built between Warsaw and Moscow and between Odessa, Kiev and Saratov. By private initiative Moscow and Kiev were linked by a rail line in 1871.
In 1872 the Treaty of Kabul formalized the status of Central Asia and brought peace to a region that was previously ravaged by constant conflict. A large railroad network already existed by this time in British India and a rail link was present between Bandar-e-Abbas in Persia, Herat in Afghanistan, and the British Indian railway. Immediately following the signing of the treaty construction was undertaken on the Trans-Caspian railway meant to connect the Russian rail system to the Indian one.
The project was made up of two components. The first was a railroad connection from Saratov to Astrakhan. From Astrakhan steam traffic would continue on to the newly established outpost at Kranovodsk, where a railroad line would again pick up and connect the outpost to Ashgabat and Merv. The second component would start at Tambov and run through Penza and Samara to Orenburg. From there it would follow a direct course to the Syr-Darya river and on to Tashkent, Samarkhand, Bukhara, and eventually Merv. From Merv a connection would be built to Herat where a line of the Indian railway was already in existence.
Estimates suggested that with quick work the first component of the railroad would be open in 1873. Soon thereafter, as the second part of the railroad opened it would link India and its riches to Russia and to Europe by rail, creating the World's longest continuous railroad connection.

From Astrakhan steam traffic would continue on to the newly established outpost at Kranovodsk, where a railroad line would again pick up and connect the outpost to Ashgabat and Merv. The second component would start at Tambov and run through Penza and Samara to Orenburg. From there it would follow a direct course to the Syr-Darya river and on to Tashkent, Samarkhand, Bukhara, and eventually Merv. From Merv a connection would be built to Herat where a line of the Indian railway was already in existence.
Estimates suggested that with quick work the first component of the railroad would be open in 1873. Soon thereafter, as the second part of the railroad opened it would link India and its riches to Russia and to Europe by rail, creating the World's longest continuous railroad connection.
This is a message from the Mexican Armada,
The Mexican Navy currently seeks to expand its forces and is willing to buy a reasonable amount at reduced rates ships that would otherwise be destined for scrapping. The ships we desire to acquire have to be in good shape and fir for duty.
We thank teh nations willing to sell us these ships and to collaborate with us.
Tomas M. Marin, Secretary of the Navy
The big disruption to trade is not at all what I had intended for with the French policy and the situation simply grew in an unexpected direction and partially out of control. The entire purpose of trying to put a temporary halt of colonial efforts is to war off tensions over Africa. Too much chaotic spread of colonizes without a logical pattern and just grabbing whatever is loose, will lead to many wars. Although effort will be made to open up to all shipping as soon as is practical for each type of shipping, make no mistake that Africa must be handled with more wisdom. The French navy and army is very capable and the Suez has the ability to let in some nationalities and not others.
Once the international crisis is solved and France faces no external threats of a serious nature, the Imperial Government will put a stronger focus on resolving some domestic matters.
