Dutch Empire becomes a great power

Spanish-Dutch war part 5

German Federation pov

With the Austrians now dealt with my new armies from the East have now begun to push the French out of the Rhineland. The goal is to take back the lands the French occupied so we can recover then actually push into Frankreich proper much easier especially allow additional aid to the Netherlands in pushing the French out of the occupied lands in the Benelux. We have also grown in investing into the growth of further tech with the goal of making a vehicle that can take massive amounts of fire and dish out the same to save us some man power when it comes to losses in the war.

Dutch Naples pov

The sea is slowly turning into our side as the Spanish fleet is losing ground with the more focused German and Dutch navies focused on the weakening French-Spanish fleets. My troops have landed in the Balearics with the Dutch focused on trying to take down the Spanish via removing important naval bases with the Balrarics being one of the important ones in the Med aside from the coast of the Spanish Empire itself. The rising amount of investment into technology has lead to the creation of the tractor helping in the increase of food production making farmers gain much more profits much faster than they would usually gain without the tractor.

Dutch India pov

My current economy is going well but more than 30% are now put into the creation of defensive forces such as the navy. I did also manage to create a new tech I call the telephone which can transport messages via being connected to a charging station. We are using the monopoly to have other superpowers buy them with large tariffs while the rest of the Dutch Empire and allied nations gain it much cheaper. I am starting to mass produce it especially via the growth of my size via purchasing some land while buying exclusive benefits to resources from Indian native nations just in case we need them in order to produce them a bit faster allowing growth of the telephone market.

Spanish Peru pov

We began to push the Dutch out of our formerly occupied lands of their nation thanks to the new guns which did catch them by suprise allowing us to gain some ground but they quickly forced us into a stalemate. But we are dealing losses on both sides with their offensives costing them more losses than I did face when I fought them so I began to prepare for a plan to naval invade them as a distraction which we will use to push Dutch Argentina to capitulate.

New Granada pov

Dutch Panama has been forced into a stalemate thank the heavens that it occured with New Spain in the same situation now so that we can prepare to advance then capitulate this thorn on our side. The naval situation in America is one our side but the navies of the Panama and Argentina have made naval invasion hard but with the navy moving to Europe to finish the Europeans perhaps I can kill them when the Europeans fall under massive naval invasion assaults.

Dutch Panama pov

I know they are planning to invade me navally so I convinced the Dutch to speed up the operation that will likely result in the knockout of the French and if we are lucky the Spanish Empire mainland itself. So I sent more of my navy while creating more for the inevitable attack on the economics of my land with plans of having the British defense fall under Spanish attack to hopefully encourage a treaty in America to prevent British intervention on our side in order to prevent a bigger world than it already is right now.

French Empire pov

We have lost most if not all of Rhine Land to the Germans once more so the increase of defenses is growing with the economics upon my own nation. I grew further via the total annexation of Madagascar which I focused upon stabilization of the new colony which I called French Madagascar. We need to try and turn the tide of the war especially as reports of possible British intervention on an unknown side to occur which could turn the war on either side of the war front.
