[quote=Ampharos] Italy might disagree with you. Plus, you'd easily be jumpstarting your own colonial program by a couple decades by taking French port cities and islands.Not sure why we even have to pretend. It's glaringly obvious that most of us have things to gain from each other here.You could do both. End the war with Britain and then declare on France. Again, divide and conquer. [/quote] See, please don't take this as being flippant but unlike certain parties (not saying you) I like to run my country realistically. Do nice things for Prussia, Prussia does nice things for you. It's that simple. France has been extraordinarily nice to Prussia, so Prussia will respond in kind.
