the problem is though that the two powerful empires are on the other side of the atlantic dealing with their own problems.

Not to mention that by committing to this war there is a good chance there will be adverse affects for them elsewhere. I doubt their public is too keen on the war right now either.

World in Revolution: 1861

Regno d'Italia

While relations between the Kingdom of Italy and Austrian Empire have rarely been amicable, we wish to extend our thanks to the Emperor not only for supporting Italian participation in the Constantinople Conference, but for continuing to work together with our Kingdom through diplomacy rather than war. As the Kingdom of Italy has great interest in seeing both peace and stability maintained throughout the entirety of Europe, it is our wish that the Sultan accept our request to attend the Conference. In that very same interest, we ask that both the United Kingdom and French Empire cease their hostility towards the United States at the very least until the end of the Conference. It is apparent that their current mobilization and hostility is threatening to start a conflict not seen since the end of the Napoleonic Wars.

Furthermore, it must be stated that it is not the desire of the Kingdom of Italy to echo the reckless actions that seem to be overtaking our neighbors in rampantly mobilizing over a war that Europe shouldn't be concerned with. We wish not to join the countless nations in their efforts to mobilize against the very real possibility of war on the European continent, but if this current course continues it will no longer be possible. However, in interest of maintaining the continued security of this Italian state, should the Austrian or French Empires begin mobilizing on our common borders, we will respond in kind.

- King Vittorio Emanuele Maria Alberto Eugenio Ferdinando Tommaso of Italy

Orders sent.

Also, it is majestic indeed. Kind of brings a tear to the eye when you look upon it.

Y'all went too crazy with the ACW stuff. Didn't even wait one full turn before declaring war and throwing up blockades.

Geez, kill and bury my hopes and dreams in the sea of becoming a power. But, it is indeed the truth and it hurts ;-;

At least the odds are you'll be the predominant South American power. Argentina is really the other main historical rival and we don't currently have anyone playing them.

Brazil had slavery, and it didn't abolish it until years after it ended in the US.

Not to mention that even should the United States lose the war, it'd take a fair amount of time for Brazil to start to build up to the level of the United States. No where near the same economy or capabilities, it'd take a lot of money from the United Kingdom to start propping them up.

Oh thanks, Great Britain! The CSA doesn't get to become the new New World Regional Power????

I think the fact that he doesn't care about the fact he'll be causing mass starvation of his own people might be a bit more intense than that, rofl.

Just in case anyone might be interested I thought this was quite funny...

A thousand times this. Was one of the funniest things I have ever seen back when it was first airing. Might have been having a civil war of my own too.

Have to go run and do some errands, but I will toss a post up in regards to both the ACW and the Constantinople Conference upon returning.

Man, that escalated quickly.

I don't even think that Prussia or the United States knows about that treaty to begin with. That and he kind of openly discussed where he'd be sending supplies to help the United States...
