>>1314713
>let's unite all the mos powerful countries after us and the Soviet Union onto our side

gee idk

>>1314726
They didn't let the USSR join.

a bit of reading comprehension could help.

>>1314765
I don't think any level of reading comprehension could help to decipher that to be fair to myself.

>form alliance against USSR
>USSR joins alliance and no one notices
if this happened it would top Venice's perfidity

>>1314713
Good idea at the time. Didn't need to be a thing after the fall of the soviets, however. It served its purpose.

Now, I'm sure there's a good explanation...

>>1314827
Something like
>Venice takes a lot of Italian minors
>Pope gets upset
>Pope asks France for help against Venice
>France starts taking Italian minors
>Pope helps Venice stop France and so does everyone else
>France, realizing she can't take the Italian minors, would rather Venice have them over anyone else
>France and Venice start the war as enemies and end as friend

That was horribly simplified and probably wrong
