Naples borrows 20 ducats for 2 years (30 ducats due Fall 1456) and spends 21 ducats to buy Turkish F Western Mediterranean and 3 ducats to counterbribe F Central Mediterranean.

Venice borrows 15 ducats for 2 years (23 ducats due Fall 1456) and spends 21 ducats to buy Turkish F Durazzo and 3 ducats to counterbribe F Lower Adiratic

Press

The Holy Sea to Northern League: Do you know what they call a Northern League player with no threats to his armies?? Dangerous!!!

The Holy Sea to Turkey: We are the Holy Sea. Your fleets and your country and your distinctiveness will be added to your own. Resistance is futile unless you saw it coming and if you did we are toast.

Notes

The Turks no longer control any of their home provinces and are thus eliminated!
