Playing as Mexico, I got a CB on Nassau because Nassau seized the cargo of one of my trading vessels.

Unfortunately, this is not Nassau the island in the Caribbean - that doesn't exist yet. This is Nassau, the Germanic nation that is LANDLOCKED!!!!!:rofl:

Playing Brazil, I got this border incident event where you get a CB for taking a state. You see, I have a border with Great Britain in Guyana, so I get a CB for a state... in Northern England.

The CB works for any state, not just a bordering one. However, it only works for the first state you pick - if you add a war goal, you can't use the CB for a second state. As OE,I liberated Croatia from Austria using the Acquire State CB while they were rumbling with Prussia. :)

atleast in the demo, it only counts states not colonies
so as brazil or america, bordering a British colony the border-event gives you a CB for any state in Britain but none of the colonies.

I got a Cut down to Size CB on Ethiopia for insulting me...after they had been destroyed by Egypt and had no armies.

But keep in mind Britain DID invade Ethopia in 1867 to rescue nationals, including the then consul, after they were imprisioned after Queen Victoria failed to reply to a letter of the then Emperor, which he took as a personal insult.
