Can't Say I Didn't Try

"What did you just say?" Diana narrowed her eyes, and her calm and gentle demeanor disappeared instantly. 

Alexander anticipated this reaction, after all, the Britannia Empire and Ruthenia Empire are geopolitical rivals. If one were to overtake one another could result in a conflict that may drag others into it. 

"I'm saying, we want the Britannia Empire to recognize our claim in the Manchuria region..." Alexander repeated. "We've been negotiating with the Han Dynasty for months but we still can't find an opening because of the conflict that may arise after the deal. One of which is the Yamato Empire. Since you're friends with them, I was kind of hoping your country talk to them, pacify things out," 

"Alexander...you know what you're asking right now is impossible right? Even if you treat me, there's no way the Parliament would agree to that wish of yours," Diana said, her arms crossed over her chest as she gave him a stern look.
