What next, your navy will take Albanian ports frequented by Croat traders? I cannot see this as anything other than an extension of the political violence to the Balkans.
We call the Albanians to stand with te Imperial Armies in a effort to defend the rights of the Albania people against the aggressive actions of the Croats, who have violated their neutrality.
You shan't pull Albania into this war that easily. I shall see if the Croat will explain to me how his actions do not cause a spread of violence to the Balkans, and then evaluate how his own argument stands up against reality.
I respect the choice of the Albanian Government, but I maintain my stance in opposition of such acts.
How dare you speak such lies. Only to destroy, our State! The Croatians, have been properly represented in this State, by honest Croatian representatives. If one Croatian militia member steps into our borders, they will be killed. Croats are fine in Bosnia, they are an accepted and well treated people in our province.
We hereby ask Albania to help protect us, and the rebel armies. Muslims, Croatians and Serbians! Join us in protecting our nation, from the imperialist Croatians from Zagreb, who want to force us against our will into a fractured Federation!

To Croatia!

Whether your promises are true or not, we are in a war, and sooner or later we may have to engage in battle. Many Bosnians under your spell may start seeing Croatians as the enemy, and I do not wish to see more ethnic cleansing in the Balkans. This Federation is descending into civil war and I will not let the Croatians be massacred on my watch.
You are the only persona claiming these massacres. Croatians have lived in Bosnia and Herzegovina for centuries, we do not need you to invade to protect them. They are an accepted, protected people in our State. So, if this invasion of yours is under way, we are here to protect Serbs, Muslims and Croats from your ethnic cleansing. To protect the sovereignty of our State.

I would like to clarify that Croatia will not be advancing into any Bosnian territory, only territory inhabited by Ethnic Croatians, and only inward a relatively small amount, mostly in the South, and we will not confiscate any property, nor commit wonton acts of murder, only retaliating if struck first. We will refrain from any offensive maneuvers, and will take up defensive trench lines on a perimeter outside the Croatian areas. We will not attack anyone, we are merely defending out people.
The doors of the Federal Chambers open up, a courtier enters wearing a stylized LP logo. He reads out the following note in a noticable Romanian accent
I urge His Imperial Majesty to direct atleast a contingent of whatever forces are under Imperial control to assist the loyal state of Bosnia against Croat Imperialism. I also ask that I not be arrested; atleast until I settle affairs to ensure succession at home. Basil is still just a boy, you know.
Oh great, now on top of them calling ME an Imperialist after they try to restore a monarchy, we have ghosts in the Hofsburg?
A democratic Monarchy, mind. His Majesty has proved himself a worthy citizen and capable soldier.
((What the holy fuck are you thinking? That is my capital city. You cannot invade my capital city and kill the Lord-Mayor without even asking me. Retcon that immediately.))
This is still called invading, Sir. Taking territory from an place you are at war with, is occupying and invading. Croatians of Bosnia are treated are equals and are fine with Croatian agitation. This is an act of Croatian imperialism. It will not be accepted.

((I'm going to need a final count in regards to the armies before I can call anything to action.))
I have as nice of words for your Monarch as the last one I fought against, at least he didn't betray anyone, he just did what he was brought up to. Croatian state militia and the members of my co-operative are advancing, we will not advance far, and any attack on them will be regarded as an attack upon the state of Croatia, and will be met in kind. We will stop at the limits of Croatian territory, we are not imperialists, we are not the Monarchists here, we are not the new Sultan, that is your supposed leader. I think many Croatians will understand.
Croatian Imperialism against Croatians? They should look at their supposed Monarch and his backers, such as the Kingdom of Bavaria, the same Germans who have dominated the Federation for so long with actual Imperialism. We will not take foreign territory, only Croatian, it's that simple, and my constituents and my people agree, along with the majority of Croatia's democratic populace.
The state of Croatia is simply defending itself against Bosnian imperialism and royalists, San Marco will support the state of Croatia in their efforts to restore peace and order and is already sending food and fresh water to the Croatian ports.

You are invading Bosnia. That is it. To "protect" Croatians, who are just fine in Bosnia. Croats, are not slaves in our State, nor are they treated as animals. Your invasion is not for Croatians, it is to spread your States' interests into our borders and because of the civil war. Do not tell lies, to cover it up. Bosnia, needs to stabilize, the State of Croatia obviously does not want that.
How can you even say that Mr. Arpaio. Bosnia, just wants to stabilize, we never once mentioned invasion or attacking another State. You cannot call us imperialists.
~ Konstantin Vranjković, Grand Duke of Bosnia and Herzegovina
The invasion of Bosnia is foolish, and I thought my home state of Croatia would be above such actions. I will be travelling to meet with Grand Duke Vranjković and to speak with the Bosniak peoples.
