March 1st 1796
Urgent message to the peoples of the British Empire
On the 15th February of this year the filthy traitors of Holland and France invaded British Germany. Our German Garrison numbers just 25,000 troops. The Franco-Dutch alliance having over double that number have forced our force to withdraw to Meckleburg to await reinforcements. I must tell you the situation is grave. A single French Regiment has taken over Antigua and Our Governer in Bombay is awaiting an invasion.
Our allies have not fared well either. The Savoyian Government has exiled to Gibraltar after France and Helvetica occupied it. Corsica looks like its next. we have sent the 5th Calvary Regiment from the Canadian Garrison to defend it although i fear this too late.
But not to put a sad face on everything The Royal Navy under Admiral Nelson chased an Franco-Dutch-Napolese fleet from the English channel to just off Dublin where in a thrilling navy battle 54 enemy ships were sunk or surrendered. This has been our proudest momment of the war so far.
Our Govenor in Canada has informed us that the U.S has withdrawn a massive borderforce of 60,000 troops and redeployed them down south. Wars against Native tribes seems to have occupied them and for now they are neutral.
Last week i announced major spending in the armed forces. Our Navy is the best in the world. Our Army is simply one of the smallest. Therefore mass spending on the Army has begun with 12 new regiments are being trained in the Empire.
Just as this document was to be dispatched i learnt that the French Dogs have invaded Austrian Italy. They have also occupied the province of Mantua owned by Venice. We hope this can lead to Venice joining our alliance.
Lets hope that the next 6 months can get better
Yours Willaim Pitt
British Prime minister
