I see you're an Italian so I'll give you some basic economy lessons:

the one that provides the services, in this case Austria sending troops to supress rebelions, is the one that gets payed by the one that uses said services

Ah, you see, the service provided is an opportunity to train Austrian troops, not Austrians coming down to stop a rebellion. Yes, the same way Italian banks are perfectly fine, no bad debt at all, you see, it is Deutsche Bank that is in trouble, not our fine medieval banks

King Friedrich Wilhelm IV has died age 65

A sad day for the Prussian Kingdom as our king passed away aged 65, a life who saw the revolutions of 1848 where after having put himself up front of the movement pushed forth for a German unification, a liberal governement created and a constition drawn up. He'll be missed by many Prussian and hopefully his brother Wilhem I who now sits on the throne of Prussia will keep up the legacy and make Prussia strong!

Gott schützen den König!

Italian cloning experiments gone awry! Does this mean that both of those armies consist entirely of Garibaldi clones?

Anyway, I vote yes, it won't really affect me yet anyway, so it's all good.
I'll be busy trying to get my army to meet with the Indian rebel army, and once it has done so, not self-destruct in a dazzling display of incompetence.

When did this happen

I thought you play the crisis game, not get a report afterwards without even knowing there was one

Zuruck zur Arbeit, Wiener Zeiting caricature, 1861

The anarcho-liberal agitators have finally lost their wind in their sails as the combined assault by Imperial diplomats, policemen and the fact that the peasantry cannot survive on air and promises alone broke the strikes that kept the Imperial economy stagnant since 1858. The factories and fields neglected these long months are again full of peasants and workers preparing for the 1861 season.
Despite a massive call for stricker punishment by the nobility, a more lenient aproach was implemented by the Emperor, under advice by Count von Buol. Effective amnesty for all workers and peasants returning to the fields, not regarding the severity of the transgression agaisnt the Empire. The anarcho-liberal agitators and ring leaders on the other hand are to be rounded up and prosecuted.
The architect of the negotiations, Count Johann Bernhard von Rechberg und Rothenlöwen, is already drafting his next proposal to the Emperor. Unoficial sources say that it is a proposal to increase Austrian coal production to exploit the European coal shortage.

Wait, you did not choose Austria's cards?

Christ, did you see how close you got to war? If Two Sicilies had any better cards you would probably be at war right now! Furthermore, if the AI was ready to start a war with some backward, unindustrialised nation, can you imagine what kind of threat it considers Piedmont-Sardinia to be?

So in the future, in order to preserve your coal customer base, let us improve our relations and be very good buddies, alright?

In other news, the duplicate Garibaldi was banished to the ethereal void, so I would like to thank other great European leaders for having joined me in the ceremony.
