Event
The Enduring Friendship

The alliance between Target Root Country and Country is no more, yet the foundation for a promising relationship between our countries is firmly established through the Treaty of Windsor. We should consider the proposition of a royal marriage to Target Root Country Ruler, who remains unmarried, with the attached conditions of a signed alliance. This would be accompanied by a valuable land grant as part of the dowry, a proposal that could be difficult to resist.
The strategic location of Tangier presents challenges and substantial defense costs, and could be offered as a strategic port to serve the aspirations of Target Root Country.

1362historical_info = flavor_eng_diplomacy.1301.historical_info The marriage between King Charles II of England and Catherine of Bragança, daughter of the King of Portugal, was proposed in an attempt to revive the alliance following the Portuguese war of independence from the Spanish Empire. Portugal was struggling to defend its vast overseas empire and sought assurances and military support from England. In return, several concessions were made such as the surrender of the islands of Bombay, the province of Tangiers and trading privileges in Brazil and the Portuguese East Indies.
