Funny thing is, Kebab has to blockade all the north German states because I have free trade with them.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zollverein

I'm pretty sure it is an empty threat or he'll have someone with an actual navy do it. I don't see a way in which they'd actually be able to have that kind of reach.

Also, is the whole 'Spainish to have supervision in South America' true?

As far as I know, no. I don't believe anything of the sort was discussed.

Sooo... no declaration of war yet despite all this drama? Come on people.Edit: Also, thinking about switching nations. Siam is a bit too isolated. Japan or Portugal.... hmmm.

I think you should go with Japan, personally. If things in Asia are to be even remotely interesting we are going to need a Japan.

The Mediterranean Pact

I. It is hereby declared that the Kingdom of Italy, Kingdom of Spain, and Kingdom of Greece shall be joined together into a military alliance, obligated to come to each others aid in the event of a war declared upon or by any signatory nation.

II. It is hereby declared that all signatory nations will allow each other open military access to each others lands, along with fleet basing right in all ports associated to signatory nations.

III. It is hereby declared that all signatory nations will allow free trade with each other in order to stimulate both economic growth and improve the ties of friendship that bind us together from this moment forth.

IV. In the event of war, all signatory nations will act together as a joint naval force in the Mediterranean Sea or abroad if need be in order to more effectively safeguard the interests of all signatory nations.

V. The Kingdoms of Italy and Spain shall both be considered equal "senior" members of this alliance, with the Kingdom of Greece being considered a "junior" member until all senior members agree that Greece is ready to join them.

VI. A junior member is allowed all the same privileges discussed in this treaty with the following exceptions;
I. Should a junior member declare war upon another nation without the approval of all senior members, the senior members are not obligated to come to their aid. All members however will rush to the aid of a junior member should someone instigate a war against them.
II. A junior member is not required to come to the aid of a senior member should they instigate a war, as it is only fair considering the terms of sub-article I.
III. A junior member may not vote on the entry of another nation into the Mediterranean Pact, although the senior nations will take their hear them out and consider their opinion.

VII. In order for another nation to gain entry into The Mediterranean Pact, it must be a unanimous decision by all senior members.

VIII. The Mediterranean Pact is subject to being amended provided all senior members agree with the amendment being made.

IX. All signatory nations are henceforth disallowed from signing any military alliance with another nation unless granted express permission of all other nations involved in the Pact.

X. Should any nation wish to leave The Mediterranean Pact they are free to do so, but lose all benefits associated with being a member of the pact and face possible retaliation if they are to leave in a hostile manner which threatens the stability of other members of the Pact.

Regardless of if it falls in their 'sphere' the fact that this was all agreed upon in the first place is going to be looked upon as an abomination by the rest of Europe. Prussia probably still will come out looking better than the others for at least admitting to it.

Why did Kho escalate this conflict so much, if he wasn't planning to go through with it? Just needless tension, I say.

Well, he's been trying to make the Ottomans much more relevant on an international stage than they were considered historically. Probably has to do with that.

Perhaps a new PM thread would be in order? With all the Euros?

Go for it. Could do that or just bring it up at Turin. Either way it needs to be discussed.
