Event
An Unholy Alliance
Ottomans have set their eyes on Target Province, and are therefore contemplating an attack against Target Country. In an unexpected diplomatic move, they are proposing that we enter into alliance. If we lend them our naval strength, and affirm their claims in southern Italy, they promise to come to our aid in the future.
This could certainly prove beneficial, but do we dare rub shoulders with the enemies of Christendom?

843historical_info = flavor_ven.19.historical_info Though Venice and the Ottomans often were bitter enemies, in 1479 the Ottomans proposed an alliance against the Kingdom of Naples. The Signoria in Venice ultimately refused this deal, but their ambassador in Constantinople encouraged the Turks to seize Otranto and certain other southern Italian cities.
