Press

France to Florence: You can keep Pat, if you promise to abstain from further aggression against French territory.

France to Venice: You have to give Pav back to me.

Naples to France: Whether Venice talks me out or not, I’m taking as much of you down with me as I can.

Naples to Venice: Don’t get sore… I’m trying to stick it to France. I will continue to do so, whether you attack me or not. That’s because I stick to my plans instead of stabbing my allies. In fact I’ll make I easier for you to wipe me out and win next year. So there.

Naples to Florence: Grab as much of the Popery bits as you can. Venice is going ape.

Naples to Papacy: Nothing personal, but I gotta find where the pirates buried that treasure…

Venice to France: Just a small slice of your country will suffice.

Venice to Florence: To bad you got crippled by the Pontiff. It would have been fun going toe to toe with you.

Venice to Pope: Finally reclaiming your homeland. Good going.

Venice to Naples: Thanks to you the game is over , if you had not attacked me...you could have been a contender.

Venice to World: Lets play a counting game-- If I kept all my 13 centers from last time--then we have Fer at 14, Bari at 15 , Durazzo at 16, Tunis at 17 , Messina at 18 Palermo at 19 any French center 20.

Notes

With this, Venice controls 21 cities, which is more than half of the 41 cities in play. Therefore, Venice wins. Congratulatutions to Dave Anderson on his victory.
