    WAR WITH SPAIN! WAR WITH SPAIN!

    The British government finally heeded the call to stop the dastardly Spaniard once and for all, precipitating a wider conflict which split the continent. Switzerland elected to stay neutral, but to put a 5p charge on plastic bags. The French initially sided with Spain, before the Parisian workers gloriously arose, up with the barricades, down with the government, and sided with their British comrades. The Germans seized the moment to reconstitute the Holy Roman Empire, on the basis that no one was paying attention, but overreached with an attempt to reconquer Poland and the Low Countries, to which the Britannic-French People’s Alliance responded with remarkable swiftness, cunningly ignoring Belgium et al and striking directly at the heart of the Hun. The Russians, never ones to let a good opportunity to invade Poland from the East pass by, struck simultaneously, leading to the scenario pictured in the map.
