we become a satellite.

Now Archduchess Sophie is leading revolts! Oh, the inhumanity!

Jan 28 - We enact a bunch of reforms. Low minimum wage, low safety regulations, low unemployment money, acceptable health care. The SGF stands as a beacon of happy fun times. Also ale and whores.
Feb 1 - France declares war on us. Son. Of. A. Bitch.
King's Sock Puppet: THEY...SHALL NOT...PASS!
Reserves are called up, Austria joins in. Austria only can spare one division as they're quickly swamped with revolts. The Franco-SGF war lasts 10 months.
The final battle of the war.
