As to their finances, I have no idea. However, it seems they are allied with Germany, who has been going ape crazy over in Europe. It seems Iceland was even poorer than Modena and didn't have a fleet or army at the point of invasion. ...How did Modena annex Iceland? Actually how could Modena field an army?

I think the question that's foremost in my mind isn't "how", but "why"? What earthly reason could Modena possibly have for invading & annexing Iceland? I fail to see how they could have any strategic interest there. ...How did Modena annex Iceland? Actually how could Modena field an army?

First Iceland. Then, THE WORLD!!! I think the question that's foremost in my mind isn't "how", but "why"? What earthly reason could Modena possibly have for invading & annexing Iceland? I fail to see how they could have any strategic interest there.

Common Paradoxian behavior. A crappy country get a reason to attack another (ie. Casus Belli) through random events, declare war, send a fleet of 2 ships and an army of 2 infantry/divisions and annex another crappy country on the other end of the map.I think the question that's foremost in my mind isn't "how", but "why"?

Conflicts between Corsica and Athens or Arboreto and another one province blakanic/turkish kingdom is fair game in my EUIII MEIOU game.
"SON, tell me why all these Italianos are landing at Reykjavik?"
"General, they seem to have taken offense at...something. They declared war and have sailed to conquer us."
"Why?"
"We have saunas, sir?"
"Good point. Our rally cry shall be Free the Saunas!"
"Excellent general, we'll win this one."

Hehe. Iceland...
Tried a Vicky-Ricky-VIP game as Greece. I'm not very good. Constantly alt-tabbing to paradoxian.org. I managed to steal Crete when the Second Oriental Crisis flaired up, with the help of my British Allies, well they did almost all the work, I just took Crete itself, waiting for my warscore to go high enough then sued for peace.
Note the ruling party is the Reactionary Russian Faction... Yeh, I was holding an election when all of Greece's militancy events kick in.

Just noticed your income/expense numbers. Greece is surviving on 2£ daily!
