Sorry about the lack of activity. I have a very busy weekend, got a lot of trials and seat racing that are very important. I should (fingers crossed) get a post up by today, tomorrow at the latest.


Earlier in the war, the Ottoman Empire stated that it would remain neutral, and put into effect a series of policies that were made public. Two such policies, that of blood being spilt on Ottoman soil, and of the cease-fire zone within the eastern Aegean Sea, have been blatantly disregarded by the Russian High Command with no explanation nor apology given. Therefore, it is to my deepest regret that the Ottoman Empire must end its period of neutrality.

The Ottoman Empire hereby declares that it is in a state of war with the Empire of Russia.

Eh, I'm interested.
Early days yet, Pirate.

Less than three years since the last bloody conflict in the Balkans, and already another war looms. The Turkish-Bulgarian war of 1911 was costly for the Ottoman Empire, and it is the desire of the Porte to avoid any such bloodshed on Ottoman soil. However, unfortunately, such desire is unlikely to be fulfilled, due to the closeness of the war and the history of Ottoman influence in the region. Also, diplomatic ties link the Ottoman Empire with both sides of the conflict. Therefore, the Ottoman Empire will at this time not be taking a stance on the war in the Balkans. Until such time as Ottoman neutrality is ended, the following policies will be put into effect:

1) The Ottoman Empire will not tolerate any fighting on Ottoman soil, and all non Ottoman troops are forbidden from entering Ottoman territory, with the exception of relevant troops within suzerains of the Ottoman Empire, such as British troops within Egypt.

2) A cease-fire zone is in place within the north-eastern corner of the Aegean Sea, the southern and south-western edge of the Black Sea, and within the Turkish Straits and the Sea of Marmara. Military and civilian vessels are still allowed to travel through the Turkish Straits as per peacetime laws, but there is to be no fighting between hostile vessels within the cease-fire zone.

3) Military vessels of hostile nations are forbidden from remaining inside of an Ottoman port for longer than 24 hours, and crew members or passengers on said vessels must remain within the borders of said port.

4) Unless sufficient reason is given, any breach of the above policies will be considered an act of war, and will be dealt with as such.

I'm down for this. I assume there will be a CS template up soon, or am I just being blind and I've missed it?
Interested.
Interested. I'm always down for an NRP.
