France Declares War!
France Has Declared war on the Empire of Japan due to the recent attacks on its patrol boats in the South China Sea. And because of the harrassment of French Shipping in the China Trade by Japanese vessels. France has called on Great Britain to join together with the United States, Australia, and New Zealand in a war to stop Japanese aggression in Asia and to lift the restrictions to freedom of navigation into China. The United States has welcomed France into the fold and has asked for supplies from IndoChina to be sent to the beleaguered army in Manila.

Wow. My AI campaign just entered 1924, and you've already had more 'international incidents' then I have! Good to know that they can happen though - the only IJN activity (that I know of) W of the Phillipines has been a single raid on Singapore in the first week of the war.
RE: France Declares War!
I´m playing the 1926 grand campaign I haven´t had anything like that either. I´m SO jealous!
RE: France Declares War!
I've been seeing alot of movement by Japanese naval forces lately have been seeing subs randomly all over the place. I'm having fun with the AI so far [:)] And in my next turn a task force sunk one of my patrol boats off the Phillipines.
