[center] [img=http://www.germaniainternational.com/images/newpg4opener.gif] The Russian Empire is angered at Britain's rhetoric towards the Brazilian Empire. I see their words as I am sure Emperor Pedro sees them as threats toward a nation which has for a long time been renown for it's attempts at maintaining peace in both Europe and the Americas, and for Britain to spew such words is once again assuring me that prime minister Albert is ailed with the same disease that afflicted his mother. First he tries to draw the Scandinavian commonwealth into this conflict a nation which as we have said is known for its neutrality on the current conflict and it is obvious that Britain wishes to draw yet another neutral peacekeeping nation into this conflict just as it appeared to be coming to a close. Albert says his words are not prideful or condescending, but alas they are but the words of a braggart who boastfully threatens peaceful nations much like a child would bully other children in a school yard I find this meager attempt to intimidate Brazil as offensive and would like to point out to Britain that if Brazil does invite disaster by the hand of European nation I am sure it will draw the attention of other European nations especially the one which Brazil is trying to defend thus furthering this damnable conflict.
