Note to CA, a possible idea about allances

[Budwise]

If Germany and France are allied and I am at war with France and I am Britain, I should be able with a diplomat to break the alliance via negotiations and become allied with Germany. Or, if France is no more, I should be able to ally with germany via this way.

I think this is a good idea because if I was allied with Scotland and I was a medium sized empire, I should be able to dump that alliance by asking Britain if they want to be allied with me instead - assuming they are at war with each other. This can happen in real life so I don't know why they left it out. Hell, you could do this in the original MTW if I remember right.
