RICHMOND, VIRGINIA - July 4, 1870 - Independence Day brought on an entirely new meaning in America today. In an effort to improve quality, President Jefferson Ruffhaus VIII signed into law a ban on cheap Chinese fireworks that malfunction all too frequently. This action coincides with the Independence Day holiday, which had taken on a lesser role in the Confederacy since 1861. All fireworks will now be imported from Japan.
A formal declarations of war against China was passed by the Senate early this morning. Quick victory is expected over the once proud nation, rumored to be run by opium traders, cheeseheads, and cheap beer guzzling Dale Earnhardt supporters.
China, having broken one too many agreements and treaties in the past was sent several warnings before Confederate Marines landed in Kamchakta last year as an advance guard against futher Chinese treachery. While declaring war against the Chinese may seem a rash decision to some, given their sheer
numbers, the War Department has issure a prospectus on the Chinese Navy, which has yet to subdue Japan, in spite of utter chaos for a decade in the latter nation. The report goes on further to note the Chinese ineptitude is so great on the seas, that most of Siam and the island of Formosa lie under
French control. And here we thought that France contolled nothing both a series of West African brothels and slave markets.
Great Britian finds themselves eternal friends of the Confederacy largely in reward for their assistance in liberation of the our nation from the Whyskered Tyrant, but also because of their fine diplomatic vision and the dedication of their military leadership. General Stuart's Cavalry Coprs still stationed in Paris, provided somewhat redundant inteligence reports to British Grenadiers advancing on Metz. It seems that English efficiency is evident every day. In fact their comanding general was heard muttering "out of the way, PECK!" as he passed limp Austrian resistance.
The Fine CSA is my friend. I wish them well as they conquer the African
Continent and Europe as well.
The British government is committed to pushing back the frontiers of
barbarity wherever it is found. The biggest perpetrator of this crime is the
evil, heathen Turks, who will be destroyed sure as eggs is eggs.
The Flying Dutchmen? More like the Bobbing Dutchwomen. See what happens
when you hang around with the French long enough? Soon the Dutch will be
hiding behind their women and children too!
Moved by the terrible plight of the Russian people, the British government
announced a new offensive against the Sultan?s army. Foreign Minister
MacDuff said, ?the British people will not stand by while Turkish soldiers
rape and pillage innocent citizens, Russia is no longer the Sultan?s
personal plaything.?
Hey Dutch Boy, Whattya think of them Chinamen's games? Little tinsy weensie peckers?! Gads, man we said to try Chinese Checkers, not peckers! Get that thing out of your mouth!
Ridding the world of the filthy French, one province at a time.
Evil British infidels will soon bow to the only respectable 'orange' leader in Allah's world!
His Divine Widow is getting a scimatar for her birthday.
To CSA: Listen you back water, sister raping, moonshine guzzling, inbred, retched smelling screwups, STAY OUT OF MY TURF!
The British Mediterranean naval taskforce has moved to intercept rogue
Confederate vessels in the Strait of Gibraltar. A spokesman from the
Admiralty said, ?we must keep the entrance to the Mediterranean free and
clear for the passage of British merchant shipping.?
To Turkey:the sheep are almost gone, you might as well leave with them also, so they don't get lonely at night.
All Hail Mighty Austria!!!
TO France: All you heathens know how to do is grow hair in your armpits and lose wars, be gone with you.
Get those filthy camel-humping Turks OFF MY LAND.
Asutria, in all their dilligence 'cleansing' Europe, has gotten a wee bit dirty in the process. Time to give them a bath.
China will feel the wrath of the CSA's glorious and powerful army!

Well, this is the part I hate most about GMing Dip games. Losing players and having to find replacements for sabotaged positions afterwards. As you can see from the list, we need a new France and a new Holland. As a result, we don't have a deadline this turn. I appologize to the rest of you for having to wait so long to get the results in. You shouldn't have been punished for my frustration at what was basically a selfish act. I had a long rant I wanted to post, but I realize that it really isn't necessary. You are all aware of the consequences surrounding player abandonment of a game, and you don't need me to list them off for you.
