CSA seems to be lagging behind with the news so Japan will remind them: It's war. Dar-es-Salaam is dead. Besides the Swiss are were not limited by Dar-es-Salaam so there is nothing that could be done against them by other nations, only against New Zion.

Dar-es-Salaam is only dead because the Zionites were actively accepting aid from the Swiss.
Period.
As far as the CSA is concerned (IC, OoC I can see only perfect logic in DF selling arms to a client state and don't blame him not one damn bit) the Swiss entering the war is only a validation of their claim that the Zion/Swiss relationship was a de facto alliance instead of the claimed 'friendship gestures.'
So 'ere's to you, Fuzzy-Wuzzy, at your 'ome in old Baghdad;
You're a pore benighted 'eathen but a first-class fightin' man;
We gives you your certificate, an' if you want it signed
We'll come an' 'ave a romp with you whenever you're inclined.

Sorry to disappoint, but I signed a treaty and I stick to my word. Plus even with Italy distracted I don't think I have the equipment to take the whole colony, especially with French and CSA warships already off the coast.

Ah, the treaty I missed.

Don't feel to bad, it was a secret treaty. Kinda a Italia-DKB Molotov-Ribbentropf

VICTORY AT SEA!!!

Brave sailors of the Kaiserliche Marine succeed in attack on Swiss Convoy.

Ships of the Indischflotte in accompaniment of several French klein kreuzers intercepted a Zion bound Swiss convoy carrying troops to expand the war. In sharp action just East of Djibouti the impressive new Schlachtschiffe Konigsland struck a heavy blow to the Swiss navy when it decimated the only Swiss schlachtschiffe in existance the antiquated United States. Outmatched from the start by our superior fire control and gunnery, not to mention the bravery of our sailors, the United States was last reported a shattered, burning wreck. The klein kreuzer Nymphe, Commanded by Fregattenkapitän von Müller, the hero of Socotra, in a brave effort to hold off the cowardly Swiss screening units sank a Swiss panzerkreuzer. Numerous Swiss sailors have been rescued by our crews, who remained at the site of the battle to recover their enemies out of compassion for fellow sailors even with the risk of Swiss or Zion unterseeboot while the cowardly Swiss ran to Eliat like a scolded dog with it's tail between it's legs.


In related news, Konteradmiral Johan Schmidt the commander in charge of the Indischflotte, has been recalled to Brandenburg, most likely to receive a medal from the Kaiser himself.
