Springtime of Nations II: A European Republic Quest

[X] Hold Schnäbele pending further discussions.
[X] Release Schnäbele, but insist upon his guilt.

as a radical centrist I oppose both hanging and contrition. dark intellectual daring requires that we explore further!
 
[X] Hold Schnäbele pending further discussions.
We're not at war with the Imperial Federation yet. We should mess with France whilst we have the oppertunity
 
[X] Release Schnäbele, but insist upon his guilt.

I think in next turn we should focus on recruiting students and skilled Immigrants from Asia. I think with most of European countries fearful about yellow peril we can get many people rejected by them and indrotrinate them accordingly.

If we liberate Korea and Vietnam from France, surely they will reward us with some of their best and brightest.
 
[X] Release Schnäbele with a full apology.

the people of Germany does not want a war, and Germany is also not ready for what will potentially be a two-front war.
 
there is not going to be a war if we just hold him. war isn't in the cards unless we just straight up kill him. napoleon doesn't want war, france isn't prepared for war, britain isn't supporting france for war, this is a minor diplomatic incident. there will be no war

let me repeat, holding him does not mean war. there will be no war from this. (sorry marcobins)
 
what is the point of a full apology? to make france feel better? that's stupid. to make them less likely to declare war? they're not going to! if you're going to release him at least insist on his guilt, because he is a spy!
 
The accusations of espionage are flimsy in the first place. Frankly, there was not nearly enough to justify what the Landwehr did; revolutionary pride shouldn't mean that we should pretend we never make mistakes.

I'm sure the Frenchman meeting with Landwehr smugglers who he has family ties with, when he should have been at a conference, was just engaging in a grand old reunion for no reason. The Gendarmerie know their stuff! This was a spy, pure and simple.

I can't believe what i'm hearing. The people in arms need no justification, they are sovereign and their word is law.
 
With the sunshine government cementing their rule the german republican experiment can now be declared a failure. We didn't even last a decade before we turned into a one party state.
I dunno friend, I think this entire affair miiight cause the coalition to combust :V
