World in Revolution: 1861

Can we all just agree right now that Queen Victoria is insane and delusional? All that power has gone to her head.

World in Revolution: 1861

The United Kingdom of Sweden and Norway argues that each man has the right to be free, so does each nation. The United Kingdom agrees. Yet the freedom of each man, as I'm sure most will agree, ends with the Law of Justice that governs his lands. A man's freedom ends when he chooses to infringe upon the God-given rights of another man. And the most grievous of these infringments is the stealing of another man's life. It is the responsibility of the community as a whole to uphold the law through the use of constables and the Courts. The Nations of the World had no such community to uphold the Law and Justice til the Treaty of Constantinople. Rather, they were as greedy men who pillaged and warred for their own gain without concern for the lives they stole. If a Nation is to be Free like a man, then a Nation must also abide by the Law like a man.

Yet when the United Kingdom of Sweden and Norway speak of freedom, they are in fact speaking of anarchy so that their Nation may grow at the expense of other peoples who are no less equal than their own. We speak out against the United Kingdom of Sweden and Norway, and all such Nations who would move against the Treaty of Constantinople not as Sovereign free Nations; rather they are outlaws and brigands who have no concern for people other than themselves. Only the law-breaker has anything to fear from the Law, and only a Nation of selfish means has anything to fear from the Treaty of Constantinople.

-Queen Victory, Monarch of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland

I wonder how the over 50,000 Britons in the part of British North America that was just ceded over to Russia feel about being traded to a foreign power in order to ensure the sovereign integrity of the world's last bastion of slavery.

Doesn't matter. Had sex.

Treaty of Canadian Defense

The United Kingdom and the Russian Empire recognize the threat posed by the Union to their colonies in N. America and as such have extended a hand of friendship to each other. This is the Treaty of Canadian Defense:

-Russia and the United Kingdom will defend each other's colonies in N. America from the Union. This is a defensive pact and requires no offensive against aggressors.

-As an offer of peace, the UK gives the provinces of the Yukon and British Columbia to Russia.

The United Kingdom finds it appalling that the lesser Nations of Europe are against a Treaty that if abided by will end War on the continent. This Treaty protects their nations from being taken over by the larger powers. Nations objecting to this Treaty are showing their true colors of corruption. For to speak out against this peace brought about by the Treaty of Constantinople is to state that you believe your Nation can only grow through the art of War. They speak of wanting long-lasting peace, yet are unwilling to abide by the peace that is now provide by the Treaty of Constantinople. In their selfishness for their own egos and power, they are not content with peace. This treaty is a boon for the Nations of Europe to focus upon their economies, education, healthcare, and general well-being of their own people. Following the Treaty of Constantinople will bring about an everlasting stability that will be a benefit to all Nations of Europe. The United Kingdom will not attend the Conference in Turin, but trusts that the Signatories of the Treaty of Constantinople who do attend will uphold said treaty to their ability.

To Greece, we thank you for joining in our War against the tyrants of the Union. Your assistance is of great support, but we ask you not attend.

We wish to offer one last chance to sue for Peace to the Union. Though we have declared War; if the Union recognizes the Confederacy and agrees to peace between the two Nations, the United Kingdom will not move against their Nation. However if the Union chooses War, the French Federation of Great Britain and all her allies will move in force against such a Nation. Should you move forward, Mr. Lincoln, you may rest assured that your name will be forgotten among the descendants of the former United States as they sing, "God save the Queen!" If you wish to make this a Second American Revolution, then let the stakes be the same.

To the Sovereign Confederacy, we support your desire to be free of tyranny and we hope that the Union sues for peace. However if they do not, the United Kingdom will stand beside in all that you do. Let this War be won swiftly and without great cost. God bless you, Mr. Jefferson Davis and all your Generals.

-Queen Victoria.

The Spurgeon post was more flavor than anything else, but I thought it apt. :)

World in Revolution: 1861

*Sincerity makes the very least person to be of more value than the most talented hypocrite.* Hypocrisy is a disease that seems to be festering among our Nations. The Union though on the side of Justice and God I feel in their war against the slave states, speaks out against the actions of the United Kingdom though they themselves have broached the everlasting wake of sin in their own petty greed against Nations such as Mexico. The Kingdom of Prussia despite their own aggressive expanse into Denmark; of which our United Kingdom has pledged our support, then decries such support in favor of their preferred ideals. They claim that it is a 'nest of vipers' that has struck them and North America. Yet it is only by this 'nest of vipers' that they are upheld in such a request from Denmark.And now I turn to my own beautiful Nation....We claim to support liberty and peace, yet we have sided with a nation that denies the very basic right of human liberty.

Hypocrisy is the poison that feeds this nest of vipers across the world whether they be of Europe or America. And it is a hypocrisy of the soul for man to align his moralities with corrupt government! As I stated in my 'Independence of Christianity' in 1857:

*Christ’s church hath been also miserably befooled; for this I will assert, and prove too, that the progress of the arms of a Christian nation is not the progress of Christianity…. The Christian soldier hath no gun and no sword, for he fighteth not with men. It is with “spiritual wickedness in high places” that he fights, and with other principalities and powers than with those that sit on thrones and hold sceptres in their hands.*

I call upon a REVIVAL to spark in the hearts of the peoples and leaders around the world. I call upon the immeasurable power of God Alone to bring peace without need for lust of power. For if we make war against the Union in greed, for that is what it is! For if we make war against the Union in greed, let us not hold back! If gain is our goal for liberty can surely not be, then let us move South and free the slave. At least then, something good might come of death.

Alas I only have this left to say to my brethren, *We have come to a turning point in the road. If we turn to the right mayhap our children and our children's children will go that way; but if we turn to the left, generations yet unborn will curse our names for having been unfaithful to God and to His Word.*



-Reverend Charles H. Spurgeon in morning service to his church.

Just saw this post in the Update and wondered how I missed it:

"Seeing the rest of Europe militarize, the Romanian Government thought it wise to raise more troops. A propaganda campaign was drawn up, with posters and leaflets planned to be scattered all over Romania. Unfortunately, a secretary misheard some crucial orders, and the leaflets were sent to Australia instead. Due to the long distance and a poor grasp of the Romanian language, very few Australians signed up for the Romanian army."

How badly was the roll for that to happen? ANd also...what the heck are any of my colonists doing joining Romania?
