friendly nations (i.e. currently a member of your alliance and at war with the<br />

enemy alliance) in green color. All your enemies will be in red color. Nations<br />

that are still neutral are colored according to their current diplomatic level.<br />

On each of the nations’ various capital regions, you shall notice a national<br />

flag much larger than usual, to denote the capital status. Below that flag,<br />

an icon is displayed, indicating the current diplomatic status of said nation<br />

towards your own nation (if you want more details, including the status<br />

towards the enemy alliance, you must open the Diplomatic Window)<br />

The Diplomatic Window<br />

The diplomatic window is accessed by (1) selecting a region in a country<br />

and then (2) clicking on the diplomat button on the top bar. It shows data<br />

as follows:<br />

On the top left you can see the flag and name of selected country<br />

The arrow on the top middle semi-circle indicates which side the country is<br />

leaning for: on the left-hand side (green), it’s the Entente, and on the<br />

right-hand side (red) it is the Central Powers. The figure in the small circle<br />

is the current diplomatic level of the country.<br />

In the central section, you see the list of each type of agreements or<br />

relations (for sake of simplicity called treaty hereafter) the nation can have<br />

with each side (relations with Entente are on the left, with Central Powers<br />

on the right). The types of treaties are described below in this section.<br />

● A red cross indicates the treaty is not allowed.<br />

● Otherwise, you either find a progress<br />

bar which show how close the side is<br />

from achieving the treaty; or a check<br />

mark which indicates the treaty is in<br />

vigor.<br />

● In all cases, the figures indicates the<br />

level at which the treaty is<br />

implemented, telling you how much is<br />

left to reach it.<br />

In the bottom section, you’ll see for each<br />

side the diplomats currently in the<br />

country.<br />

The three buttons at the bottom of the<br />

window are used to take those special<br />

actions:<br />

● Declare war to the selected nation<br />

● Ask the nation/Give her Economic<br />

aid (if an ally only<br />

● Surrender: make the nation in<br />

question surrender to the enemy<br />

Note: You can get more information on<br />

those nations in the Statistics<br />

window (accessed by clicking on the flag<br />

in the top-left-hand side of the interface).<br />
