Britain to Cuba (if all that stuff is accepted)

Our budget is a bit stretched right now, but individual financers will be more than happy to help out (for reasonable future returns, of course)

[civman2000]

The Argentinian navy in the South Atlantic has moved into the Caribbean and is reinforcing the Brazilians and Cubans. Argentina has also launched a joint invasion of SOuthern California with Mexico.

To Cuba: We have no clue what you're talking about. We were the first country in the AA to declare war on the US, and have been against them the entire time. Perhaps our evil former government that was recently overthrown may have had shady dealings with the Northern tyrants, but we have done nothing of that sort.

Economy->Growing: 1.5 years
Stamp out almost all opposition: complete
Army->Huge: 4.5 years

To Britain: Thanky you for sending the advisors. They have speeded up our ship-building program significantly. While we are disappointed that you have no ships to sell, we understand your not wanting to sell up to date ships.

So you can buy some form us if you want.

Austrian Navy enlarging to Huge: (4 years)

The Austrian Navy has been ordered to the waters of the eastern coast of the United States to protect trade coming for Europe form the ongoing conflict between the nations of the Ameircas. This is soly for the protection of merchant ships, both US and Europe ships.

Also with end to the French-China war many men in the army are now being put into reserves and allowed to go back home to their families, they will be only called back to active duty if a war breaks out. Thus Austrian standing army will be large, but can grow to huge if war breaks out once again.

Events:
- Soviet revolt in Russia
the soviets of the workers, paesants and even of the navy have revolted against the Czar, seeking to bring the Czar down and to instaure there a repubblic, despite the many conflicts of class between the revolters, they have decided all these citizens decided to unite against the so called tyrant.
The army, even if still loyal to the Czar, refuses to fire against the rebels, as they see in between them also members of their own family.

- Mexico keep pushing
After having helped the Argentinians to land in California, the Mexicans, with help from Venezuela, made a major attack on Texas, going as far as Houston (from their HQ in Corpus Chrsti), also the rebels in southern Mexico have been quelled, after that the population recognized in between them the old governor of Mexico, which this time was linched by the mob.

To: Ottoman
From: Italy

Thanks, but luckily now that a cease fire was signed with France, we should, hopefully, not need your help anymore. (secret) yes, I think we should help the US out, alone they would not stand a chance against all the southerners, we should do it in order to reestablish the balance of power between the USA and the AA.(/secret)

To: Russia
From: Italy

Should you need any help in getting those people in check, just ask us and our military will be there

To: Austria, Ottoman
From: Italy

Italy is also interested in the development the Ottomans are doing to airplanes, any chance we could join in the project as well?, also I think it could be a good idea that all of us share our future technologies with each others, that way we will get very powerful.

Argentinian dissidents that escaped the governments crackdown on dissent by fleeing to Brazil and then Britain have spoken out, calling on the world to side with the US in this war and overthrow Argentina's evil dictatorship.

The leaders of Argentina have denied all charges against them and said that they freed the nation from "corrupt socialist anarchist usurpers."

[Nimitz]

To: Italy
Ok we will move the troops out. (secret) When you declare war we will too.(/secret) Yes we will take all the help we can get with planes.

[Easthaven I]

The Huge Brazillian navy with help from their allies has gained total naval supremacy in the Carribean and Gulf. Cuba is now free from the blockade. Brazillian support ships have landed and begun distributed food to the populace.

After weeks of fighting, most of the stranded Americans either die or surrender. The islands are securely in Brazillian possession. The Brazillians again begin refortifying and improving defenses.

Plans are being created of an opening of a second front in the US.
