The Netherlands also wishes to recognise the new nation within the Levant, and wish to recognize that all trade routes and trade cities are, and hopefully will be, open both ways.

We are unsettled by the brutal murder in Spain by the French army. I think that the actions of the French King, murdering so many people, is disgraceful. At the same time the bankruptcy of the Ottoman Empire and France is a cause for a Congress, and I would commend a Congress In Munich. The Dutch Empire is rich in resources, and we are willing to financially help any baknrupt nations with loans, or if need be we will happily fund any expedtions. If the Ottoman Empire or France have any negotating regarding loans I will be happy to hear them out.

I also wish to announce that the city of Zanzibar is now under Dutch colonial rule. We hope that other nations will recognize and support this claim.

King William,
King of the Netherlands and Belgium,

The news of the fall of Cadiz is comforting and I hope this contributes to a even more peaceful future.
