I was playing with Scotland later and took the entire british isles. I never attacked first and tried to keep a good relation with England, but those bastards backstabbed me so I sieged Nottingham and London and occupied them, but left their population unharmed. The only settlements the english still had was Rennes and Caen and very soon they became bankrupt. I was playing turtle trying to do askthepizzaguy's challenge for all vassal, so I was sort of protecting england from ultime doom at the french hands by keeping my armies at the entrance of their territories inside of forts.
Meanwhile I was trying to negotiate a vassal treaty with them, but even being bankrupt, those bastards never accepted any sort of gifts! Even tried to donate London, Nottingham and give them 7000 florins without asking ANYTHING in return but they NEVER accepted!
I can not possible understand this! Everytime I offered something my relations with them gone worst!
Help get some answers guys, because I'm really starting to think that I'm gonna have english for dinner...

Oh, and btw, I'm playing VH/VH and have reliable reputation. I'm also allied with almost everyone(those danish dogs tried to attack Inverness, TRIED), and also the pope's best friend.
