Chapter 295: The Batavia Peace Talks (Request for monthly votes!)

On July 4, 1911, the Australasian Government officially unilaterally notified the Dutch East India Colonial Government and the Government of the Kingdom of the Netherlands behind it, demanding an explanation for the multiple attacks by Indigenous Peoples on businesses owned by the Kingsley Corporation of Australasia within the Dutch East Indies.

The attitude of this announcement was surprisingly strong, and the Australasian Government specifically stated that if the Dutch East Indies Government does not respond within 48 hours, the Australasian Government will take necessary military action to protect the safety of its citizens.

Although 48 hours were given for a response, the time for communication and negotiation between the two levels of government actually took up a considerable part of that time, from Southeast Asia to the European Mainland of the Netherlands.
