Even after I was proposed as a hostage, I thought,
There's one more thing.
The Kingdom of Mainz has a port town called Burgas on the southern coast, facing the sea. It plays an extremely important role in overseas trade and is a major collection point for goods. The taxes collected from there form a major pillar of this country's economy. The Holy Roman Empire has made "unfrozen ports" a national policy and has been steadily pushing south, finding reasons to intervene in our country. From the Empire's perspective of wanting an unfrozen port, they want to swallow this country and obtain Burgas. Both the Holy Roman Empire and the Kingdom of Mainz are always eyeing this country for annexation. The balance between these two great powers is what this country is currently riding on. Lord Robin has surely understood how extremely dangerous this situation is."
"Yes, I understand."
