Blah blah blah situation has already been handled.

"Except that the matter of repairing your reputation still hasn't been resolved. Even though the raids might have finally been put to rest, the attitude you show off is... less than admirable." -
"So, this alliance has disbanded, I sense?"

"The problem, as I see it, is that Slesvig-Holstein and Hamborg hold more value to us than the two islands you propose in exchange ever would. You must remember that the lands you requested are the oldest existing possessions of Denmark, and as a result, their value towards us is unrivalled. Estland, or equivalent territory, in response to this, would be considered a decent exchange considering the ceremonial value. Other problems which need to be factored in is the issue regarding the transfer of National Treasures and our great monuments within the region(s). Slesvig-Holstein and Hamborg are quite profitable in their produce while the lands in the east are very limited in regards to what can be built or grown there. With this in mind, I agree with the proposal from the gracious French Prime Minister."

We, the greatest exchange centers of Europe, shall be moving from Brussels to Antwerp. Brussels is too closed and isolated for business, and the technological backwardness of the Minitel system is causing too much trouble. Therefore, from now on, the economic capital of Europe shall be Antwerp.

"I'm sorry to say that København is far superior to the Stock Exchanges within Brussels and Antwerp. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, yet I was absolutely certain that your... well, whatever it is, didn't have the capabilities to exchange stocks. Anyone who even considers trading within your erm... really, I have no idea what you are meant to be. But anyway, only the foolhardy would trade within your nation. København is the economic capital of Northern Europe, or was for quite some time, so please, don't kid yourself."
OOC: I was certain you could only RP having a Stock Market if you had the wonder in-game... which I noticed that you haven't. -
"The restrictions which were imposed on North Germany by my predecessors, I am willing to remove entirely as they are quite detrimental to both of us, and this includes the lifting of the embargo for your nation in the Danish Straits and the unbanning of the Nordic language and the Odal rune.
The main issues with the scenarios that you pose are the unfairness in regards to the exchanges of land. For example, if we go back to the pre-revolution borders, we'd lose around 3-4 million citizens with a return of only 50,000. As you can see, that is quite a substantial amount of citizens we'd lose which would severely hit our industry. Unfortunately, Jylland and Nordslesvig have a overly strong Danish majority which we do not desire to abandon. Thus, that rules out option A and potentially D. We are willing to transfer Slesvig-Holstein and our lands within Hamborg to the North German nation in return for a more fair and balanced offer. For said lands to go to North Germany though, Denmark expects an equal or equivalent land offer in return because the land is quite important to us in regards to the manpower it provides us which will take some time to recover from."
David pondered for a moment and something quickly came into his head,
"Out of interest, are there going to be any other foreign observers arriving to make sure that what is laid out here today is reasonable and/or fair to all parties?"
OOC: Are the pre-selected observers (Baron Uberstein, Lynneth, etc.) allowed to post in this thread, or are they already here? -
David smiled and bowed to Therese. "Dearest Prime Minister, your country is truly amazing, and your home is just breathtaking. If only the Danish were able to construct such monuments, then there would be more beautiful things in the world."
David was clearly breath-taken by the absolute beauty of the French nation and the architecture. He had only seen such craftsmanship in his dreams, he really must learn more about the history of this nation at a later time. Needless to say, such thoughts were more appropriate for another time, as there were other matters at hand which had to be resolved first.
David accepted the handshake with great enthusiasm and responded to Dierik with the following, "My friend, it is a honour to meet such a living legend as yourself. It has been my dream to re-establish communication with your grand nation. As you might have noticed, I'm not like my predecessor, Vega, whose fanatical devotion to the founder of the former nation of Lybæk and current nation of Denmark, Franz Ferdinand, clouded his judgement in a few certain areas. The past is the past and most of the damage, as far as I am concerned, has been repaired. Therefore, the only thing which needs to be done is to normalise relations with your great state and restore stability between our borders. I hope that as a result of this intervention will result in the best potential outcome for all parties involved with the minimal amount of friction occurring on the end." -

Mechs and gundums were part of CNRP canon for ages, should we bring those back?

If only Vega was alive to see his plans for such technology flourish... It would be somewhat interesting to see them return, nevertheless. -
David Hasselhoff had been sitting at his desk looking over the affairs of Denmark. It appears that his predecessor, Vega, was quite the isolationist interventionist with his policies. Certain changes had to be made to better stabilise the situation of the state of Denmark. Top of the list was stabilising the list of friends and allies after the slow but steady decline of many of the former allies. The only ones which still stood were the South Germans and the Holy American Empire, both great friends and loyal to the end. Looking at some of the policies put in place by Vega carefully, the most outstanding was that of the North Germans. These people had been at odds with the previous rulers of Lübeck and then Denmark for quite some time. The wounds of the past take a long time to heal, yet it was definitely time to get them resolved as soon as possible. All of those who had betrayed Franz Ferdinand, founder of the great Lübeck/Danish people were either dead or destroyed.
Just then, a letter was delivered to David which allowed him to smile a little.
"So, the French have taken it upon themselves to potentially end this hazardous situation which has lasted for so long between us and our neighbours. Now, this could be worth attending, hopefully both sides can get out of it exactly what they wanted and potentially put to rest some, if not all of the ghosts from the past. From what I've heard, this Therese Zelle is a stunning woman and as I can't resist extremely attractive women, I must say that I have no option but to attend this meeting."
David called over to a clerk and said the following to him:
"You there, can you send a response to the Prime Minister of France stating I accept the invitation to come to Bordeaux and that I shall depart as soon as I can. Speaking of which, I should get changed, I really must look my best for this most beautiful of leaders."
With this in mind, David got himself ready, boarded his private jet and relaxed for his time in Bordeaux was sure to be an adventurous one. -

"Two great alliances coming together like this is always a great experience to behold. Well done, both of you!"

"With the disappearance of Vega, we have discovered a message left by him stating that his successor must be elected democratically. Therefore, a shortlist of candidates has been drawn up, and the people can decide who shall take charge of this most glorious nation.

"Denmark has lost the greatest politician of all time, Vega who has mysteriously disappeared. As a result, Vega's father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate has taken over the running of the nation. He has been flown in from the glorious nation of Novak where he was teaching the natives how to rule their nation correctly, who their true friends are and how to destroy the enemies of the state. As a result, he is perfect for the most desired role in the world and will surely be a most excellent world leader, maybe even surpassing the great figures of Franz Ferdinand and Vega. Of course, the name of this politician is shrouded with mystery yet in a few hours or so, we shall know the identity of this great person who shall lead us into a era of peace and tranquillity while peacefully crushing all of those who oppress our great people!"

All I found was Lubeck asking for the city, but Prussia never accepting the handover itself.

"Why of course, I do believe that those denizens of Marche would be better suited under the banner of Naples. You have the full backing of the Church on this matter. We must drive out the blasphemers and restore good Catholic morals in the region."

Pope Alexander VI was taken aback by the awe-inspiring beauty of this most gracious of Queens.
"My child, I thank you for visiting me at this most beautiful of times in the year. How was your journey here, I hope that no ill-fortune befell you and God protected you from any heretics whose sole purpose is to poison the minds of God's children and convert them to false teachings of Satan, the diabolical serpent?" -
"We are truly saddened with the demise of our great ally, the Revolutionary Socialist Syndicate of the Netherlands. We hope that those who live within their former borders enjoy a decent level of living."

The Pope was adjusting his zucchetto after his 'exchange of the arts' with Giulia Farnese in the city of Canino and this 'important discussion' lasted for quite some time. "She really knows the best ways on getting the Papal Spectre spotless. I really should make a mental note to discuss the finer things some more with her. Oh well, time to attend to official business."
With this, the Pope got onto his loyal stallion and rode off with his cardinals riding beside him towards Rome. He couldn't be late to such an important meeting.
After a somewhat uneventful journey, the Pope finally reached Rome and after greeting his loyal citizens, he entered the Apostolic Palace and started to get himself ready for the arrival of the arriving party.

David thought carefully about this and looked at a map of the regions of Estland for quite some time with great focus. Finally, he was ready to speak,
"We believe that your offer is a most gracious one and in regards to the 50% of Estland, I wish to know what you have in mind in regards to splitting the region. That way, I, and the nation of Denmark will have a better idea what the exact offer on the table shall be."
