Spanish soldiers walking my land

[Simna]

Hej!

What is this?
Suddenly Spanish soldiers came walking through my territory without beeing at war with me.
Does the Spaniards has some special option?

Lev väl.

Some ideas

You could be:

a) a Spanish vassal

b) a country in the HRE and the Spanish King is Emperor

Hej imna,

this sounds like the effects of the Tordesillas Treaty, where Spain had the right to claim territories in the Americas (in the game probably all around the world), and taking colonies from other countries, without declaring war to them.

Greetings to Sweden,

live well 2!

Ok in short:

* If those lands are European lands then: You are a Spanish vassal (unlikely) or the Spanish monarch is Holy Roman Emperor and you country is in the Holy Roman Empire
* If in ROTW: You are a Spanish vassal or Spain uses the Treaty of Tordesillas

Hoi Witte de With and hej everybody!

I'm playing as Sweden, it's 1719, the Spanish troops were walking through Meckelnburg (my province now), I'm not a vassal to Spain, I'm protestant and I'm playing GC (I think it's called GC in English).
So it's the Tordesillas Treaty then?

Lev väl.

Groet van Zweden en Simna.

Well, Mecklenburg is in the HRE. IF Spain is HRE they can run nicely thru that province if they please to do so

 

[Vulture]

Yup they could from Milan to Holstein without a problem... Btw, where did you pick up those Dutch words?

Hej VultureGFF!

How can I stop this trespassing?

Impressed?
Anyway, I found them in a small book called: "8 Languages in one book". It covers English, German, French, Spanish, Swedish, Dutch, Portuguese and Italian. But it's just a small, really small pocket book.
I've got it at my previous work.

Lev väl.

U can't stop the HRE Another country can win and they can then run over the HRE as they please

 

[Vulture]

Only Catholic or CRC countries can become HRE, so seeing that you are not Catholic you can't become HRE, and you can't stop it... Simple as that...

 

[unmerged(3408)]

Yup, HRE. This too needs to be a sticky in the FAQ.

 

[Vulture]

Agreed... Just as the 'Casus Belli discussion'

Switch back to Catholic and get yourself elected Emperor. Or, hope that France/Turkey annex your provinces so they get booted out of the Empire ... but this cure is kind of worse than the disease

Spanish soldiers fighting my war

Hej!

OK, Spanish troops walks around in my provinces and there is nothing I can do about it. But this one then.
I had taken Bremen from Sachsen and suddenly I had a riot on my hands. I clicked at my troops to see how the battle was going and what did I see? Spanish soldiers was helping me beating off the riot. Isn't that strange?

Lev väl.

Aehh, how do you get in the HRE .. perhaps a dumb question, but..

PS: most kindest regards to Brugge, the most beautiful city in our southern hemisphere

Brugge is nice yes...

No you can't get into the HRE... Check your religious map, the area within the red line borders is the HRE... There is no way to get in so to speak

Just a nice bonus Especially if they actually hate you, and would rather see the rebels win, but just happened to be going that way as the riot erupted.
