Nothing else ... but we warn Britain not to interpret our stopping of conqest as a sign of weakness. If you attack us, we will fight back!

[Eivind IV]

Nothing to report.

Kellog-Briand Pact
A symbolic treaty signed in 1927 renouncing wars of agression.
Quote from the readme:

- Only the owner of Istanbul, together with her allies, can sail between the Mediterranean and the Black Sea.

[Eivind IV]

That rule was primeraly ment for the 1941 version of this scenario when neutral Turkey denied passing between the oceans. Did Turkey deny entrance to the Black Sea even before the war?

[Historical Atze]

Germany will sign no kind of treaty that interferes with its souvereignty! Germany does not need any treaty to decide whether to wage war or not.

trade with england

[POTUS]

The treaty is merely symbolic.
And, Turkey denied passage to all combatant ships.

[Eivind IV]

Ok, so freighters are the exeption?

And oh, wasn´t that treaty nilled out when Germany occupied the Rheinland? Or am I mixing up another treaty

I don't think so. The treaty referred to offensive and aggressive war. The remilitarization of demilitarized Rheinland was not a war since there were not enough dead people, I would say. Still, by exiting the League of Nations Germany ended all multilateral treaties and such was the Briand-Kellog Pact and sticked to bilateral treaties only.

[POTUS]

When they remilitarized the Rhineland, they withdrew from the Versailles Treaty.

And, I don't care what Hitler really did, change the course of history.

[POTUS]

Ok.
Peace between the British and China.

[Eivind IV]

Were they at war in the first place?

The reason I ask these questions is that this is still a playtest and any unormal activity must be reported.

[POTUS]

They declared war on me on the first turn, and I just ignored them until they approached a supplies group, and I said yes to their request for peace.

REVOLUTION IN FINLAND
Our proletarian comrades in Finland finally decided to throw off the shackles of oppression and started a revolution! They asked the USSR for assistance and the Red Army was ofcourse more than willing to help!
The fascist forces in Karelia were smashed easily and Helsinki will be liberated next month.

The British cruisers near Helsinki and Istanbul were sunked.
