    "Atdheu mbi te gjitha"


    His Royal Highness King Skanderberg II is overjoyed to have been confirmed as the true sovereign of the new Albanian Kingdom, he'd like to express his thanks to all the heads of the nations that attended the coronation. This coronation will not soon be forgotten, neither in Albania nor, so we hope, the rest of Europe. It warms his Majesty's heart that even in times such as these where a war is currently being fought on the Continent, that the European community can come together to celebrate the appointment of a new Monarch.

    On the matter of the small "incident" which took place in Durrës during the time leading up to the coronation, whereas such matters would usually be handled by the local police department, due to the presence of so many Heads of States and the Russian Tsarevich and due to the claims that the now deceased man made, this matter will instead be handed over to the Albanian Shërbimi Informativ Kombëta, The National security service, for them to conduct a full investigation into the matter and get to the bottom of what this man was doing in our Capital during the time leading up to the coronation.

    The Kingdom of Albania shall continue its efforts to centralize the Nation and begin a process of further industrialization to bring the Nation into the new century.

    Der Reichskanzler
    Reichskanzlei, Berlin



    The German Empire declares its neutrality in the Belgian-Dutch conflict. German troops will not enter Belgium or the Netherlands as long as Belgium does not interfer with German interests.
    The latest Dutch actions are unacceptable. However, the Danish actions are even more compromising.


    The Danish mobilization is considered as a possibly hostile action which adds up to the latest threats and demands by Denmark. The German Empire will take actions to ensure the security of its people.
    Norway and Sweden are asked to consider their individual stands on the Scandinavian Pact.





    During the coronation of the new Albanian King, his majesty Kaiser Wilhelm II. - who sadly could not take part himself due to the recent events - had Crown Prince Wilhelm of Germany read out the following statement:

    "The Prince that is going to be a King within the next hour is a former German citizen and has therefore the full support of the German Empire and its people. Together with Russia, Germany will support Albania in becoming a great nation. One could not imagine a better friend than William of Wied, Excellence and Prince of the Albanian nation. May his reign be long and glorious, long live the new King Skanderberg II of the Albanian Kingdom!

    The German Empire guarantees the independence of Albania and sends military advisors to aid the new King with his duties.

    Ellection in the netherlands


    "Ik zal handhaven"

    The Goverment of the Netherlands holds ellections
    The Ellections are around the corner and a new goverment will take seat soon. Even though it is wartime the ellections will continue and there will be voting offices at the front lines. So also the soldiers will be allowed to vote. For the first time woman will be allowed to vote as well says the current goverment with a policy that just passed Giving woman voting rights. We find that they should have the same rights as men and thus are allowed to vote.

    "Min Gud, mit land, min ćre"

    Response to German.

    The Danish government can inform Germany, that The kingdom of Denmark is only a part of this war because we have an alliance with the kingdom of Belgium.

    The kingdom of Denmark does NOT want war with Germany, and the Danish kingdom would like to decrease the current tension with the German Empire. We would like to do this by making a non-aggression-treaty with the German Empire, we have actually accepted another non-aggression-treaty back in April, but Germany did not act to that. So again the Danish Kingdom is interested in a non-aggression-treaty with the German Empire.

    The Belgian Government calls for the Force Publique, its Congolese expeditionary force, to report to Belgium immediately.

    With the recent setback experienced by the 1e Division, the war department decides to mobilize Belgium's colonial army.


    King Leopold III guarantees the sovereignty and independence of the Netherlands

    As per an agreement made with Kaiser Wilhelm himself, King Leopold vows to respect the independence of the Netherlands no matter the result of the war, in exchange for Germany neutrality.

    "Liberté, égalité, fraternité"

    France Gives Notice of Blockade to all Nations and allows for time.

    French ships will Commence a Full Blockade of The Netherlands starting 10 days from now. That is June 10th, 1914. Any ship that tries to enter or leave the Dutch Coast will be turned back. Any ship that tries to break blockade will be forfeit to seizure. Any vessel that attempts resistance, armed or unarmed will be dealt with with necessary force. All ships will be given a chance to surrender or turn back, we are not the Dutch, and we see this as the only way to protect innocent lives and livelihoods after the unprovoked, dastardly and heinous attack on the Antilles. We warned the Dutch that breaking not only the Rules of War, but also Conventions signed in their own hand less than a decade ago would lead to tragedy, now it has happened and we WILL NOT allow it to happen again. France is declaring a THREE MILE exclusion zone of of the Dutch coast. Our ships will be that far off the coast and will not move closer, but no ships will move into or out of that area. We understand a large portion of the Dutch food supply comes from fishing so we will not harm the Dutch population by moving the Blockade closer. Local fisherman will still be able to feed their countrymen.




    REMEMBER THE ANTILLES!!!

    "Liberté, égalité, fraternité"


    France Rejects All Dutch Apologies and Recompense.

    France utterly rejects the Dutch apologizing and trying to make good after the fact. Money will not bring those sailors home to their families, kind words will not give sons their fathers. The Dutch knew full well what might happen, because we TOLD them repeatedly that it was against sense, against good reason, against all rules of war. The Dutch will reap what they have sown and it will be a whirlwind. And below we are attaching the Dutch Corraspondence that proves how little care you had for our citizens before the incident, this is how we know that these platitudes sent by the Dutch are meaningless and are only to secure themselves from retaliation.

    We know and understand that French civilians may get hurt or killed but any Belgium ships going trough our waters will be sunk. We are not breaking any Martime law it is within our borders that these actions will be undertaken on our waters. International martime laws do not matter on our own waters. We can not guaranty safety of French citizens sailing under the Beglian flag as long as they do not enter our waters. Not to remind that all ships within our Territory under hostile flag will be concidered Hostile. There are no rules about shelling Enemy ships in your own waters. If so please remind us which article it is under and then we will cease these actions right away. We are not shelling any ships out of our national waters since that would just be insane. We suggest that all Belgium ships stay in the port of Antwerp if they are already. Otherwise we suggest all belgian ships to avoid going to Antwerp. We clearly do not want any ships moving in our national waters under Belgian flag.

    "دولت ابد مدت"

    Conference to Discuss the most Recent War
    The Sultan has become confused over Frances decision to not uphold their word of keeping the Belgians and Dutch war down to those two countries, not only have they allowe the Danish to Join in the war, but they themselves have gotten involved. Due to this, the Sultan would like to convene a meeting with all European Powers, Dutch and Belgians included, to discuss the on going war, and what should be done. Each European power is urged to also bring some sort of guard force with them in an attempt to stave off assassination attempts of leaders/politicians/diplomats.


    France Issues an Ultimatum to all European Powers to NOT get involved in the Dutch-Belgian Conflict in anyway. Any material assistance to either side will be seen as an act of aggression and France will be forced to respond.
