King Roger of Sicily is of the same mindset as King Wladyslaw and welcomes any other Christians to join into a holy alliance against the heathens in the east.

However, he would also like to warn that any interference of Sicilian expansions on nearby islands will be frowned upon and may have consequences.

King Knud of Denmark wishes to make an alliance with England for mutual protection in the waters of the North Sea and beyond.

William, by the grace of God, King of England, Duke of Normandy, Count of Maine, accepts the offer of the Danes.

King Wladyslaw of Poland is pleased to announce the formation of the Catholic League, a collection of nations which have forsworn violence against their fellow Catholics and whose avowed purpose is to bring Catholicism to all the peoples of the known world. Our misguided brethern of the Orthodox church and the Muslim infidels must be brought into the light of God under the Papacy. Members of the league must:

1. Forswear aggressive military action against fellow Catholic nations. Lands that stand in rebellion, or under the sway of other beliefs are fair game.

2. Not be excommunicated or allied to an excommunicated nation.

3. Battle heresy everywhere it can be found.

4. Answer all calls to Crusade.

5. Aid one another against attacks by foreign faiths.

In particular the King would invite the kingdoms of Sicily and Spain to join the league, and an alliance with Poland, as they stand most at threat from the depredations of Islam. All other realms are equally welcome, provided they can answer to the conditions above in good faith.

(edit: spelling ;) )

The King of Sicily accepts the conditions under the premise, that other Catholic aggressors must be brought back to the light, by force if necessary.

**Ramses II CP** · 08-13-2007, 13:48

It is much to be hoped that there will be no aggression between Catholic states, however, in the unfortunate event of such the League's charter cannot require that other league members provide military aid against fellow Catholics, but of course nor will it bar it's members from doing so. Furthermore, the League will prevail upon the Pope to try to keep conflicts between Catholics from growing in all cases.

(As an OOC note, the league will function just like any other alliance in game, only with it's mission statement of conquering non-Catholics and aiding Catholics against them on top. Once you're in, you're not going to get kicked out for anything short of excommunication. If we get a few members we'll plan ways to increase our Pope-o-meter mutually and vote on crusade targets, etc.)
