Just to make it clear, pledging not to interfere militarily with the ongoing civil war does not equal recognition of one Sophie Auguste Friederike von Anhalt-Zerbst as a legitimate regent of Russia. For the Sublime Porte she remains an usurper, illegally occupying the place rightfully belonging to Ivan IV. And lands that were seized by the Ottoman-Crimean forces before hostilities ended are being handed over to his troops and his administration, not any of any other pretender.

Urusper Catherine's demands that Prussia hands Ivan to her "so he can be delivered justice" are nothing but proclaiming a desire to committ a deplorable act of regicide upon the rightful Emperor.

His Sacred and Imperial Majesty is surprised with a strange, belligerent statement made by the Georgians. The Treaty of Paris does not even mention Georgia and there was an error of the map which we haven't noticed until now.

The Ottoman Empire had no intentions to provoke hostilities with Georgian Kingdoms, but let it be clear that trying to take any advantage from our military involvement in Europe will be meet with decisive action. Even with heavy deployment elsewhere, the Sublime Porte had capabilities of dealing with that problem. The choice is yours.

An official period of mourning shall commence in the Topkapı Palace to honor the memory of noble and brave Prince Henry of Prussia. His death, though honorable for a soldier, leaves a great void.

His Sacred and Imperial Majesty echoes the words of the King of Prussia. All sides suffered enough.

The agreement between recently hostile powers not to intervene in the Russian Civil War is and will remain an empty pledge as long as ostensibly "neutral" powers are pleased to meddle on their own, like Poland-Lithuania, or may serve as proxies for somebody else to meddle.

With no disrespect toward the Most Serene Republic, the negotiations are indeed already proceeding and we are close to honorable peace. We applaud your peacemaking policies.

His Sacred and Imperial Majesty wept upon hearing news of dastardly murder of Tsar Ivan. He was a brave and noble young man, who despite enduring terrible torment from those who usurped his rightful crown, managed to rise and fight back. His tormentors, terrified of his star shining ever brighter, retorted to a way of cowards, the assassin's' blade. Furthermore, His Sacred and Imperial Majesty sorrows this happened when he was Ivan's host. It's a terrible thing for any devoted Muslim to see his guest harmed.

While the Topkapı Sarayı is to adhere to official mourning over the tragic and despicable murder of Tsar Ivan, His Sacred and Imperial Majesty, no matter how wounded his own soul was, cannot possibly deny his loyal subjects right to celebrate the successfull outcome of the war. There shall be festivities to celebrate our victory.


The Sublime Porte does not believe, as there are no indications whatsoever, the Austrians had anything to do with Ivan's murder. It's even a possibility the real culprits wanted to sabotage peace process between the two realms. Although the suspect should be obvious, no further comment shall come until the investigation is properly conducted.

The void left by Tsar Ivan IV will never be filled. Yet, as hard as it is to ponder over now, the Russian people deserves someone to carry on. Peter Fyodorovich is a grandson of Peter the Great and thus is clear next in line of succession to the throne usurper Catherine, a nasty woman of no Russian blood whatsoever, is trying to steal. He is now the rightful Emperor and Autocrat.

In recognition of His Sacred and Imperial Majesty the Sultan's Christian and Jewish subjects' loyalty and contrubutions to the successfull war efforts, as well as in recognition of a need for deeper reforms across the Empire, it is decided the Jizya shall be abolished and unified tax code instituted within the period of five years. Because of the scale of this change, it cannot be done overnight.

On The Subject Of Military Reform

It it his Sacred and Imperial Majesty the Sultan’s will that:

1. Recognizing the great experience possessed by them, as well as historical role they played in establishment and defense of the Ottoman State, the Corps of Janissaries shall not be disbanded/absorbed, but transformed into Guard Regiments, similar in line of guard regiments established by Peter the Great in Russia.

2. Recognizing training and mobilisation capabilities are crucial in the modern warfare, the Ottoman Militia shall be established, as a framework for wider, periodical training of manpower, and run by experienced and accomplished officers. The Militia, if mobilized, shall also be available to act in ensuring domestic security.

3. The Ottoman artillery must be modernized and expanded, in the line and with cooperation of our Prussian ally.

Yet Another Decree

1. With the war efforts ending, His Sacred and Imperial Majesty orders that an appropriate amount of spare resources shall be used as a relief for his subject in Egypt, suffering after bad harvest.

2. In order to avoid such developments in the future, His Sacred and Imperial Majesty orders, that a new governmental body shall be created and tasked with a) Gathering and maintaining strategic reserve of grain and other long-preserved food items. b) Preparing contingency plans to deal with the consequences of bad harvest, as well as account for other disasters. c) Organize and maintain an infrastructure to carry out its tasks.

In the name of His Sacred and Imperial Majesty the Sultan:

Let it be known that a woman named Sophie Friederike Auguste zu Anhalt-Zerbst-Dornburg, also using a false name of "Catherine Alekseevna", who is already undoubtedly guilty of usurpation and Lèse-majesté, is now considered a fugitive, pursed by the Ottoman justice for the heinous murder of the noble Emperor Ivan IV, committed on the Ottoman soil. If apprehended, she shall face the severest retribution of the law as a common criminal.

May God have mercy on her wretched soul.

The Ottoman Empire, committing itself to the pledge of non-intervention in the Russian hostilities, was in the process of rectifying an earlier mistake by recalling the 15,000 of 50,000 Swiss mercenaries that were paid out of the Sultan's treasury.

HOWEVER, the French intervention proves once more that the agreement is and will remain an empty word, unless all parties resolve to observe the terms. The Sublime Porte was willing to fully normalize relations with France, letting bygones be bygones, but their recent actions forces us to consider undertaking a countermeasures in our mutual relations.

His Sacred and Imperial Majesty the Sultan's ambassador in Warsaw presented a note to the Polish government regarding events in Moldova. Nothing new shall be announced at this stage, pending Warsaw's response.

On another note, the Sultan asks his friend and brother, the King of Denmark-Norway-Iceland, not to make any radical moves that would treat the peace we've just achieved in Europe, at least until the situation clarifies.
