Thrakaria

Thrakaria, now over with the civil war, starts to fight back on both sides. They got payed 65 million ducats, and they use a fraction of that money on military and another, larger fraction on wa reparations and care for the people. The former authoritarian empire is now a friendly democracy, and they start to broaden their horizons by looking for allies or trade partners. Firstly, Thrakaria asks Macedonia to be a trade partner. They then ask Mexico and the Sahar Empire for an alliance. On the borders, Thrakaria manages to slowly push back Ottoman forces because of the new funding and technology. They also get some land from Bulgaria. At the end of the year they reach the southern Thrako-Ottoman border. This is all part of "Operation черен", a plan to trap the Ottomans by invading and occupying their southern coast. Since Thrakaria owns the Bosphorus Strait, they will not let Ottoman trade ships or battleships come through. The plan will start to go full-scale next year.
