England offers to marry Elizabeth to Charles II of Austria and receive 3 mercenaries in return.

That's why Martinus, for all his spending on the trappings of wealth and taste, will never really have class.  He's just trying too hard to be something he isn't (an intelligent, tasteful gentleman), trying desperately to hide what he is (Polish trash with money and a severe behavioral disorder), and it shows in everything he says and does.  He's not our equal, not by a mile.

France accepts the betrothal of Don Carlos to Elisabeth de Valois and accepts the card draw.

France declines the offer of an alliance with Spain as Catherine fears the realm is too unstable at this time.

France offers to receive 1 merc from the HRE.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

HRE accepts the betrothal of Philip II to Anna of Saxony.
HRE accepts the betrothal of Charles II of Austria to Queen Elizabeth and gives 3 mercenaries to England.
HRE gives 1 mercenary to France.

Protestants don't have anything to confirm/deny, so we're off to war declarations and spring deployments.

Spain has no wars to declare (despite grousing about the perfidious, lying French, that is).

Del's up to SD.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Nothing less than shouldering us with the nutcase. We stated that we were most displeased.

Sent out a diplomacy file to bring us up to date.

And we likely angered our friends by accepting that previously unheard of offer.

I am sure Elisabeth and Don Carlos will love each other very much. :)

He promises to restrict the drool to one side of the bed.

Fascinating stuff this 'diplomacy' with which you people occupy yourselves. And this whole marrying business, fascinating...

Ottoman Empire has no announcements and no wars to declare at this point.

SD is 3 regulars to Belgrade, file sent. Over to Mordor, er...Madrid.
Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen, and keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again; but don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin, and there's no telling who that it's naming. For the loser now will be later to win, cause the times they are a-changin'. -- B Dylan
