Chapter Four: Das Boot
Milan and Genoa have been at war with each other, making their lands chaotic. Time to DoW.
Shortly afterwards we peace out with Palatitane by giving them 25 ducats.
Peace with Milan - February 1423
Now we turn towards Mantua. A recent border dispute gave us a core, so we DoW right when we've got our troops ready.
War with Mantua - March 1423
Ok, some bigger powers are drawn to the war. Not a problem!
Mantua Annexed - March 1424
Peace with Aquileia - September 1424
Gold provinces taken, we can afford even more troops!
Peace with Savoy - February 1426
Eww, ugly borders! We must fix it ASAP.
September 1427 Milan DoW's us. Their fault.
1429 we declare war on Venice, allied with Savoy and Aquileia.
But before that, we have a problem:
Err....
Savoy Annexed - January 1431
Ahh, much prettier borders now.
Aquileia annexed - September 1431
To prevent annexation spam, i won't post a screenshot where we annex Venice.
We take the risk and DoW Naxos:
Aragon owns a province in Sicily, Genoa has a CoT.
Luckily, France didn't join the war.
Genoa annexed - May 1434
Third CoT in Italy is now owned by us.
Peace with Aragon - May 1434
Italy is now ours.

Now, now. A little question: Guess what is my BB now? I'll tell you when the next update comes.
