Your biggest Diplomatic crisis

post your biggest diplomatic crisis's here. This can be one where you are inches away from war or losing an alliance that you need

this was mine. That was once a seleukid fullstack which got demolished near the south tip of nabatai by a rebel fullstack so it went into my region and there it was attacked by another arabian stack so now its sitting near my cities.

Seleukids are were my allies so I didnt want to move them yet

they eventually attacked me at the worst possible time when I had a fullscale war with the ptolies and I ended up having a two front war with Arche going down both sides of arabia and Ptolemy slaughtering my troops in Egypt

As Makedonia, I was attacked by the Seleukids after declaring war on an expanding Pontus while continuing to be at war with the Ptollies for invading Karia...

I'd love to say I've had diplomatic crises in EB/RTW but I haven't. Any nation I border attacks me at some point and I know the AI is as dumb as a sack of spuds and incapable of using diplomacy. This remained constant until Shogun 2, where I actually have lots of them in every single campaign, which is how a TW game should be in my opinion. As the Uesugi, the clan just below you that is a protectorate (that I'm convinced exists only to draw you in to as many wars as possible) is constantly attacked by your neighbours. Do you:

A. Refuse to help your allies who you previously promised to help (thus the protectorate) and take a huge blow to your Daimyo's honour or
B. Join in yet another war when you can't even handle the 4 you're already embroiled in?

Always a fairly impossible choice that will most likely end up with you being wiped out, no matter the campaign difficulty you're playing on. Unfortunately EB/RTW just isn't able to offer any kind of diplomatic cleverness even close to this.

I guess what I'm saying really is... I've never had any.
