His Imperial and Holy Majesty The Emperor Matthias. To the nations of Europa and Asia

Like a mighty Rock, I stand against the waves of the cowardly, and the un-godly. You the French, whom for we stood against Brandenburg to protect you're special trade treaty. Now we see what you're intention was, to have an excuse to invade the God given lands of the Germans! We shall not waver or fall. To you the Spanish, who once were our brother, yet abandoned us when we wished to protect you're Dutch posessions, now you wish war. Why should I, lawfully elected Emperor stand down because a rebellious traitor wished to take it for himself? I offered him a fair trial, by which I swear on the hallowed name of God! yet he did not wish to come to terms legally for he knew he was in the wrong, so now he wan't war.

Then, It is War.
May God have mercy on you're souls.
