However, we wish to let him know that he has been misinformed. Though there is a rebellion occurring in the home islands, the colonies of the Republic are still safely under the administration of the British Republic. We humbly ask that you remove your troops from the area and ask that the Emperor of Brazil, one whom our previous administration recognized as a beacon of peace continue in that philosophy. Once more we thank you for your concern, but please remove your troops from the area. To the Union, we wish to let you know that the current administration of the Republic withdraws our Nations recognition of the Confederacy as a sovereign State. We will sign the peace treaty between our two nations as soon as it has sent. The Republic of Great Britain supports the Union in their attempt to put down the Rebellion. God speed, Mr. Lincoln. -Albert Edward, Prime Minister of the British Republic
