Dialog

Mehmed Said Pasha The Sublime Porte cannot acquiesce to such demands without due consideration of the empire's historical sovereignty over these lands. To do so would be to unravel the very fabric of our territorial integrity.
Balkan League Head Diplomat Historical sovereignty, Pasha, is precisely what we are addressing. The current realities on the ground must take precedence over antiquated claims.
Balkan League Aide The population surveys from the region indicate a clear majority in favor of our proposed boundaries, Your Excellency.
Mehmed Said Pasha Surveys conducted under the shadow of occupation carry little weight in the halls of legitimate governance. We speak not of populations but of the empire's enduring rights.
Balkan League Head Diplomat Then let us speak plainly—without concessions here, there will be no treaty. The ink will dry on our swords instead of parchment.
Mehmed Said Pasha Such ultimatums are beneath the dignity of these proceedings. The Porte has weathered greater storms than Balkan posturing.
Balkan League Aide The French and British observers await confirmation of progress by nightfall, Excellency.
