The Napolean Restoration is complete.
An assembly elected by the populace is in charge of legislature, while the Empereur, along with a cabinet supported by the assembly hold executive power.

We now pray that these changes shall help France to become stronger than ever before.

The US ships near Boston has been temporarily moved south with the understanding that no ships will be in the way for them to move back to their original position.

A lot of the American merchant navy operates from Boston, hence why we have those gunships to ensure that nobody blocks the city even by accident.
It is therefore recommended that incoming vessels headed towards the New York harbour approach further from the south to avoid the heavy traffic of US ships bound for Europe.

Furthermore, traders aimed for New York are allowed to land their goods on the coastal areas surrounding the city.
However, we do expect the goods to be moved if there is a need for improving the infrastructure there.
We will also not delegate which areas can be used by which country, we leave that to be discussed amongst yourselves.

The Tzar thanks America for allowing its merchant ship through to New York. The cash injection to the Russian economy is a real boost. We will follow the southerly route from now on. Russian sailors are amazed by the amount of shipping in the Atlantic. It seems that all of the worlds goods head for New York!

Russia would like to propose this solution to the potential problem of congestion and blocking of trade around New York:



DEDICATED STOPPING ZONES:

Spain (76,66 - Sea)
France (79,65 - Sea)
Britain (77,65 - Land)
Russia (77,67 - Land)
Germany (79,63 - Land)
Japan (78,66 - Sea)

The following stopping zones are the only place traders heading for New York can wait. The light blue lines should be kept clear for the US to get its ships in and out. All foreign shipping should be careful not to block US or other nations access to their stopping zones. If the US could keep the road squares clear at: 77,63 75,65 and 75,67 then the whole thing should run fairly smoothly.

ADDITIONAL LAND STOPPING ZONES:

When the US infrastructure improves sufficiently land stopping zones with railway access could be added for Spain, France and Japan.

CIVILIAN NEUTRALITY AGREEMENT:

All nations should sign an agreement that traders in their stopping zones in the US cannot be sneak attacked in the first turn of a war. This will allow us to safely put all our eggs in one basket without risking losing them in one go. Any traders still in their stopping zone in the second turn of a war can be destroyed.

Obviously the details of this agreement can be negotiated, but without a system access to New York will very quickly seize up!
