Summer 1051 Plague
Good Year – No Plague!
Press
Pisa – All: Peace to all... and I hope you got what you wanted, other then in this game.
Pope – Pisa: The People of Florence has requested my aid to liberate them from their current ruler. I am therefore sending my Army to expel the Faithless one and bring peace to the citizens of Florence. Although I have no quall with you, and in fact have sent two envoys to you asking for Peace. Perhaps my envoys were sent to the wrong address, and therefore I ask for you to contact me so we can come to terms. War between us will only lead to our down fall and our enemies gain.
Pope – Normans: You are another leader who is hard to contact by envoy and so I rely on this announcement to try to get you to the bargaining table to set up our own Treaty. The Papacy has no quall with you either, and only wish for peace between us. I hope we can set up lines of communications.
