Helvetic-Bavarian Commonwealth (HBC)
 * TL;DR: The Commonwealth is currently at war with the nations of Slovenia and Pirenze. Slovenia is fully annexed, while Pirenze cedes Lombardy and Veneto to the Commonwealth. The Commonwealth is looking to increase relations greatly with the two neighbours that share the same cultures as the Commonwealth - Hoflan and Rumas.
 * Politics: a
 * War: The Commonwealth is currently at war with the nations of Slovenia and Pirenze.
 * Operation Weed: An ultimatum is issued to the federal government of Slovenia after they become richer and more progressive. As the Commonwealth desires a naval port, of course Slovenia will be the first in the Commonwealth's crosshairs. The Slovenians refuse to accept the ultimatum, and therefore the Commonwealth is forced to declare war. In the first few months, the cities of Maribor and Celje are occupied, with the frontline moving forward rapidly. Forces surround Ljubljana as the Operation enter's its third month, and by June 6th, the city is completely occupied. The Commonwealth's forces occupy the rest of the east in the following fortnight, as their forces continue to push towards the coast. By October, both Trieste and Koper have been occupied. The Slovenian government surrenders to the Helvetic-Bavarian Commonwealth. The treaty states that the Commonwealth will fully annex Slovenia, Slovenians will be given full rights, German and Italian will not be phased in until 1996, and the Commonwealth must invest in Slovenian infrastructure.
 * Operation Mario: Due to the Commonwealth's expanding influence, the next step on the government's agenda is acquisition of naval ports. Particularly, Venice. Therefore, using this agenda, the Commonwealth sends an ultimatum to Pirenze, who is already at war with the increasingly militaristic Rumas. Surprisingly, Pirenze denies the ultimatum, calling out the Commonwealth for corruption and indecency. Therefore, the Commonwealth declares war on Pirenze in May. Milan is surrounded, and it falls in 5 weeks. Similarly, Bergamo, Verona, Padua, and Treviso falls incredibly easily. By September, the entire north-east has fallen, exclusing Venice. Venice is heavily fortified, but by November, it falls, and  Commonwealth forces move on and continue to occupy land. By Christmas, Pirenze has been completely occupied by Ruman and Alpine forces. The Pirenzan governmnet surrenders to Rumas and the Helvetic-Bavarian Commonwealth. The treaty states that Lombardy and Veneto shall be ceded to the Commonwealth, Pirenze will cede the rest to Rumas, and will pay reparations to both nations.
 * Diplomacy: The Helvetic-Bavarian Commonwealth is hoping for friendly relations with the worldwide community, trying not to risk war unless beneficial and incredibly important to the Commonwealth. For example, the separate wars with Slovenia and Pirenze are both vital for the Commonwealth, as Venice is desired, and this will increase trade. However, this is the extent of the Commonwealth's European ambitions.
 * Hoflan: The Commonwealth desires a defensive pact with Hoflan. The Commonwealth can be a valuable ally for Hoflan, since the Commonwealth spends quite a lot on defence, and would be able to protect Hoflan is times of war. The Commonwealth would also believe both nations would benefit from a free trade agreement, as this will bolster both economies. German is a big part of the Commonwealth, so it is important that these 2 Germanic nations maintain good relations. The Commonwealth also proposes a trio alliance of sorts with Rumas.
 * Rumas: Since both nations attacked Pirenze, and the Commonwealth also resides on the Italian peninsula, the Commonwealth thinks that it is very important that both nations maintain good relations, especially in a period when nations declare war for trivial reasons. Much like the Commonwealth's attitude to Hoflan, the Commonwealth desires a defensive pact with Rumas, and perhaps the trio could form an alliance of sorts in the near future. The Commonwealth has a large Italian population, so it is vital that the two Italian nations rmaintain good relations.
