Playing as Mexico. I have been prepping for the US Civil War thinking I could declare war on them while they are busy and really expand my power while destroying/limiting theirs. However, when I saw CW events were getting close I started justifying a war. When my "acquire states" (I think that was the choice) CB had been justified I couldn't declare war. The button was grayed out.
So, I justified another CB. Liberate people, seemed to be broad enough. Same thing, couldn't declare war once I had the CB. So, I started decreasing relations, which was already low. And by the time it was negative 100 the US had already one the war. Which, I thought was incredibly fast. Especially when I was subsidizing the confederates.
I had also allied with the confederates from day one of the war. Why wouldn't they request my assistance?
Very discouraging! I think I am ready to kick Mexico to the curb and try a different country. Which is disappointing, figuring how much time in real life I have invested in the country already.
Any advice?
Thanks.
