    Plymouth Falls

    The British port city of Plymouth has fallen to a combined assault mounted by the French Army and Navy. French reinforcements are currently flooding into the city, thereby bolstering the newly formed 'Army of Cornwall'.

    Palmero Taken

    The 'Neutral' city of Palmero has also fallen to a combined attack by the French Army and Navy. It is understood that the city was defended by nothing more then the crew of a merchant vessel!

    Napoleon Returns to France!

    General Napoleon Bonaparte has landed in Provence, and is now en-route to Paris. Speaking to a cheering crowd in Lyon, the General stated that he is looking forward to personally commanding the mighty French armies.

    Egypt Transfered To Austria

    In accordance with the peace terms negotiated between the French and Austrian Governments, Egypt has been transfered to the Austrian Empire. While much of the 'French Army of the Orient' has returned home, thousands of troops have 'volunteered' to remain in Egypt to continue the fight against the Ottoman menace.

      KOBENHAGEN TAKEN BY PRUSSIAN FORCES!!!
      Prussian soldiers given rest after hectic months

      As predicted last month the Danish city of Kobenhagen fell to the prussian forces seigeing the city on the first day of this month. It seems the people of the city, tired of the relentless bombardment and their own governments annoying habit of not yielding the city, the people of Kobenhagen rose up and opened the gates for their prussian liberators. The prussian army is taking its rest in the city after the last few hectic months.

      Spannish forces push back British again!

      This month prussian observers sent back a memo which stated that the spannish forces near Cadiz had advanced and had cut off the city. The british forces tried to break out of the encirclement but were slaughtered to a man and thus the city was left empty for the spannish to occupy which they did at the end of the month. This is another setback for the british imperial ambitions and coupled with the invasion of English territory by the French army this month the british situation has worsened.

      Hand of Friendship put towards France.

      After the invasion of Britain by the French the prussian government sees no further course but to put itself into the good graces of what we see as the new power in europe. While it galls us to offer this to a government which doesnt recognize the rights of a king it is the only thing left for this country to do. Our King Fredrich Willhelm III has offered to meet Napoleon in Paris itself to discuss the terms of friendship.

                    Not much time so here is the run down. Bucharest still under siege, Jaffa bombarded by Prinze Eugene, and some nice shiny cities in a little place called Egypt have turned over to me. Also, I am now at war with the nuetrals and will be joining the French in their conquest of Munich.

                    Now back to my research paper.

                      France Destroys Britain, Spain and Bavaria!

                      The French Flag now flys over the cities of London, Madrid and Munich. In addtion, all of England and Wales now lies under French control.

                      England Falls To Dual French Invasion

                      Following the sucess of last months landings at Plymouth, French forces based in the Low Countries have struck across the Channel and captured London.
                      Despite the odds stacked against them, London's defenders refused to surrender, and managed to sink several ships of the line and slaughter several regiments of Dragoons before being overwealmed by the French Army of England.

                      Once London was secured, French forces swiftly fanned out into the countryside and secured the lightly defended cities of Bristol, Birmingham and Manchester.

                      Madrid Falls

                      The great news from Britain has sparked the French Army of the Pyrennes into action. Upon the first reports of the fall of London, several regiments of cannon supported by a large body of dragoons (including the elite Horse Guards) set out on the road to Madrid. The great city fell after a lengthy barrage and repeated assaults by Dragoons.

                      Munich Taken

                      Following the great victories in Spain and Britian, General Napoleon has personally led an assault on the Bavarian city of Munich. Like Madrid, Munich fell after a heavy artillery barrage and several attacks by French Dragoons.
                      The people of Bavaria have warmly welcomed the French armies and thousands of young Bavarian men have volunteered for service with the mighty French army!

                        Allthough Russia considers itself a close friend of France, the Tzar is somewhat uneasy about the French aggression towards it's neighbours.

                                He left another one and is missing in three or so... said it was because of finals and whatnot. I don't think he'll be here for awhile.

                                I can take it if you want to get this rolling, since it seems the British aren't going to be doing much right now anyway.
                                Unbelievable!
