On the Great Duke's comments on Pomerania's rightful claims:
The Duke of Pomerania finds what you are saying about The Pomeranians rightful claims very troubling, as the lands we are laying stake to, in fact, have people living in them which have Pomeranian blood and culture within them. Thus, we must liberate these peoples form living under other tyrannical countries and bringing them under the great banner of the Pomeranians. As for the other principalities Pomerania is laying claim to, they are of great strategic importance to dominating trade in the Lübeck and English Channel trade nodes, and very well falls into the Pomeranian ambitions.
However, it may seem like that Austria themselves is planning to take over some states of the Holy Roman Empire themselves, including the namely 'free city' of Ravensburg. Much of the land conquered also does not have historical or cultural ties to the Austrians, and it may seem that the Austrian 'Empire' is just taking over these countries for sheer greed.
Thus, I believe that Austria should in fact be making adjustments to their own claims, and not be worrying over the claims of other states in the world.

How dare you claim to question the rightful will of the Emperor, Fredrich III swore an oath to the citizens and duchies of the Holy Roman Empire. We seek to expand to keep the Empire safe, why do you want to expand? For simple greed of trade. Sure, those lands may have once been Pomeranian but they were conquered or traded off. Those lands belong to those who have it. And on your comment about Ravensburg, a Free City, We do not plan on 'conquering' it as you so claim. Ravensburg has been traditionally unreliable in the Empire's affairs and must be dealt with, either peacefully or with force. I suggest the 'Great' Duke of Pomerania worry about his own affairs and stop questioning the rule of the Emperor.
