Springtime of Nations II: A European Republic Quest

[X] Plan: For Domestic Consumption

I just want to get back to civilian turns honestly. We've gotten basically everything we said we were aiming for before the war started and the rest is mission creep. We're going to need a lot of work to absorb our gains already. Going back to war will be costly both in lives and international position, and none of the peopel arguing for more war have convinced their war aims are either reasonable or worth it.

Let's see what counter-proposal we get. And if they refuse, well, that's on the League then.
 
[x] Plan: The Pink Map

Bulgaria and Montenegro can go hang, but reorganizing Romania's important. And reparations are too likely to just be funneled to debt service (that is, to British banks, who wull just use it to finance Russian industrial buildup) as opposed to reconstruction of friendly territories. We can survive another six months to a year of war politically and militarily - the Russians cannot, or cannot as well. Certainly Alexander cannot, and if he croaks from age and stress we can at least claim this war killed one autocrat.

I haven't even seen any good proposal of how to reach those aims beyond fighting multiple 6 months campaign seasons back to back, interrupted/hindered by the rasputitsta, with the Entente steadily growing more hostile. On a fundamental level I think people fail to realize how big Russia is and that strategical targets like Vienna or Budapest are in short supply. The one possibly option of a Black Sea coastal campaign is an Entente red line and something we really can't pursue.

Getting drawn into the vast interior of Russia and dying a death by thousand cuts unable to ever win that decisive battle happened quite often historically.

What the point of proposing an offer that will be automatically rejected? That's just a waste of diplomatic wriggling room.

Also it will be interesting to see what will happen in other parts of the World.Will America continue making based decisions or will it go back to it;s horrible old self?
