It always happens in my games, France has a bizarre obsession with liberating 'Pomeralia' from Prussia as an excuse to go to war. And Prussia/Germany have a bizarre disinterest in not getting it back. I've had several games were France smashes Prussia early, liberates the corridor, Germany forms, turns France into a pathetic rump, yet Pomeralia remains happy and free. I always forget to edit that weird little would-be nation out of the game and then France marches in Danzig's defence once more...
And good going trekfan on mopping up the European minnows, now I'm waiting for you to take on the Pink juggernaut.
France also seems to have a weird obsession with nabbing a bit of Bolivia when called into a South American war.
And this is the reason why Victoria 3 needs to have a better model for the movement of goods.
Chapter 7 - The First Mexican War
I don't reckon I know much about those Mexicans we're fighting, but I do know that they can't hope to stand against our fine boys in uniform.

At the eve of the First Mexican War, Mexico was surrounded on two sides by the CSA, and on two sides by water. As part of the Golden Circle, many Mexican lands were claimed by the Confederacy. At the time, Mexico was undergoing the turmoil of Revolution, with Coup after Coup and Counter-Coup after Counter-Coup leaving the nation without any international allies.
War is declared.
The first battle in the War ends in a Pyrrhic victory for the Confederacy.
Victory blesses Confederate forces in Yucatan.
Mexican forces continue to be pushed back.
While the victory in San Salvador was glorious, it did prove problematic for the Confederacy. 9000 of the troops General Lee used to defeat the Mexicans were recruits from the recently conquered states, almost none of whom were White. This event challenged traditional Confederate views on race in the military.
Back up North, a Mexican counter-attack was repulsed.
A major Mexican army is defeated.
With the military defeats in mind, Mexico surrenders.

I would have taken more, but the war score requirements were too high.
I don't think that is supposed to be there, and I won't take it unless I plan on taking the rest of Mexico.
I've been using the reconquest and restoration of order CBs, because I got cores on the land with the Golden Circle decision, which is courtesy of the Freedom and Chains modmod.
Why wouldn't you want to take the rest of Mexico? The circle must be completed!
