      It has nothing to do with Astronomy really, although that obviously explains your problem. Your trade route can only follow Coastal squares, and since you're at war with the French, that trade route has become blocked somehow. If you weren't trading with the French themselves, then the path that goes to the other harbour you were trading with has been blocked. If the war were to suddenly end, you would find that you can trade again.

      BTW, if part of your deal was an exchange of resources, losing your route now means that you are in default, and the other civ is not going to be pleased with that. And they have been known to go to war for less.

          Well I do have a little german in me, but I have a t-shirt that best explains myself:

          As you can see, not all germans are accurate .

            Sorry for being accurate, I just was trying to help. It won't happen again. I will try to be as inaccurate in the future as you are with your version of the word "Kraut".

            But I think I can forgive you. You had to eat so much british beef during the last years, because nobody else does, and the result is obvious.

              It's always puzzled me, Is it all the mathematics that went into rebuilding your Country after we destroyed it???

                    Why are you being such a racist jerk? Has history not shown you that this stupid nationalistic superiority you're exhibiting is a waste of time? Maybe one the American posters should rub your nose in the fact that your people got thier ass kicked in America. Whatever happened to your almighty empire eh?

                      So much for the European Union...

                      I need a clarification here--I understand that a route can be blocked, but does it require actual enemy ships doing the blocking, or is having the only viable route going though enemy territorial waters sufficient?
                      No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                        Physical ships (or ground units, on a land route) aren't needed to block trade. If you can't trace a valid route that doesn't pass through enemy territory (including unexplored territory or trade-embargo-ing countries you're at peace with), you can't trade.

                            It was a blatant racial slur, and I don't find that very funny. As long as those types of attitudes exist, then this world, and all the people in it, will continue to go at each others throats, and we'll continue to have war after war for no other reason than stupid national pride. Surely the English people must have learned something after what just happened in New York and Afghanistan. Or Yugoslavia. Is that the way we want to continue running this planet, or shall we put aside our differences and accept the fact that we're all on this bubble in space together?
