Precipice of War - We Write Under The Sign Of The Goat

----------Palazzo del Quirinale, Rome.----------- "This is an outrage! Why? Why would they accept a nation that couldn't even maintain unity into the Iberian League! The Serbians are so corrupt I bet they can't even make a decision without someone outside of their own government pulling the strings!" Florenstano roared again for the sixth time today, his fist slamming down into his oak table. "Your Majesty, please you must calm down. Serbia's quick and rapid acceptance into the Iberian League has set us all on edge, but this isn't something to be so worked up over." Calmly spoke Everardo, in an attempt to douse the coals of his King's anger. "Allow me to go Spain, let me talk to the Spanish in an attempt to learn why Serbia joined and explain why this is not a good thing for us." Florenstano sighed, his hands coming up to his face and rubbing the many wrinkles that had formed over the course of his dual-rulership with the Prime Minster. He let his hands fall back down to the table, his back leaning into his chair as he began to respond. "Listen I-" He quickly stopped, being interrupted by the door to the room entering, his eyes squinting with the new light source pressing forth into the once dimly lit room. "Now now, don't you know it's bad to talk in a dimly lit room. Hurts the eyes." Said Isabella coolly as she entered the room. It was rare to see the Queen acting so calm, which means she was just as mad about the situation as Florenstano. Her simple attire greatly distinguished herself from the rest of the people in the Palace, wearing a simple dress and heels... which were very menacing as she stepped across the marble floor and sat into a chair next to her Husband. "Do not worry Prime Minster, we have already come up with a simple solution." She said, and Everardo could swear he heard what seemed to be venom dripping from her words. "We are going to let the world know, instead of back room talks with Spanish and Serbians. A public announcement that you and I will hold, Everardo." Everardo squirmed sightly in his seat. It was no shocker that we has scared of the Queen. She was tall, and the way she spoke just hinted at her knowledge of intrigue and manipulation. Everyone was scared of her, yet she was well loved by the people none the less. He had to think of his response carefully here, or she would simply spin his own words around into her favor like all the times before. "I do not see how this would cause any difference of an outcome, if anything this would make things worse between us and the Spanish." Isabella smiled. 'Damn it' was all he was able to think before she replied. "Do you have no spine, Prime Minster? Our nation isn't a weak play toy for the Spanish to use willy nilly in their efforts to 'eradicate communism.' We have regained our status as on the powers of Europe, we must use that influence to show the world that we are not a nation that bows every time Spain waves its hand. That is now Serbia's job, after all." "Are you proposing we leave the Iberian League? That is simply madness." Florenstano cut in, catching his wife by surprise. "No. I'm simply saying let us set our position in stone and protest this decision. The Serbs have no right or reason to be in the Iberian League." Everardo folded his hands together, looking between his King and the Queen. "Very well, we shall hold a gathering and announce Italy's position publicly. I do hope you know that any bad outcomes will fall directly onto the head's of the Monarchy, not the Senate."

It's not conquering, it's reclaiming. (And I'll get it one way or another)

Man, I'm looking at the map right now and just... I need that Libya back in my life.

Millions of Italians are now sad. Anyway, I've also been working on a post. Knowing me, it'll be posted in a month.

In other news, El Dorado is good.

Yeah. I mostly just went on about this so it'd be easier for people less knowledgeable to write jets better, or people more knowledgeable to help me understand Jets more.

The jet I listed was the US's fighter used in Korea, other then the P-51 Mustang. I'm not insisting the current jet technology is 30s level anymore, since I've been presented with the new information. Jets in the 30s were horrible, the Italian one couldn't even reach 400k/h. So, I was comparing a WW2 Fighter(Granted, a 1945 - years of development experience German bomber interceptor/fighter) to a 1949-Korean War era American jet fighter, not an early development jet like say the... Heinkel He 178, which had a top speed of only around 598 km/h(according to Wikipedia, knowledge of that jet is not something I have) I'd also like to correct a mistake I made earlier, the P-80 Shooting Star's top speed was actually around 950k/h. I was thinking of the very early development of the plane, not the one used a lot. Still, the advantages a jet has compared to a prop plane is the ability to choose when to engage. If the P-80 misses, all it has to do is just keep flying away, turn around once far enough, and go for another pass. I think the real question is if Chinese and Spanish pilots have the experience with said planes to understand that.

That is... quite a bit of development. Still prop planes would hold a good chance against Jets even if they are Korean war era...ish. I mean, the American P-80 Shooting Star top speed was around 898kph when armed for combat. A BF-109 K-4 (Which I assume Prussia would probably be using... or at least one very similar) has a top speed of around 720/710km/h, and has better acceleration, turn time, and climb speed would still be able to put up a good fight against it. The P-80 would have to line up, shoot, and then get away as fast as possible because if it missed(or hit, even then it was only .50 cals) all the cards suddenly went into the BF-109's hands. All the BF-109 has to do is hit the P-80 once with it's 30mm cannon and that thing is going down. Though, jets do have excellent energy retention compared to prop driven planes. When it turns, it may have a massive turn radius compared to a prop, it can keep it's speed up in that turn and get away. I'm mostly saying this for Village since he doesn't have jets, and is facing jets. Jets are cool, but in the end were only good for short quick passes instead of full out dogfights, which they would lose against props.
