I want to incorporate @vcczar's new Scripted Events tab (with the new EV bonuses/penalties) this round, but I need to remove the events that we've already done.

MrPotatoTed Posted November 1, 2022 Author Share Posted November 1, 2022 (edited) 1798 Scripted Events Pennsylvania Legislature abolishes slavery -- The influence of several leading Quakers has compelled Pennsylvania to abolish slavery.Treaty with UK (Jay Treaty -- Attempt Two): British diplomat William Grenville is receptive to terms to avert another war and to strengthen ties with our future mother country. We can expect that the British will vacate forts in US territory in exchange for us taking part in an anti--French maritime policy. We will also gain limited trade rights in the British West Indies in exchange for us granting Britain "Most Favored Nation" trading status. Most economists and merchants, and those fearing a new war against Great Britian, support this treaty. However, those wishing to hold on to our old French alliance, or whom believe the treaty tilts in favor of Britain, or whom are outraged that the treaty will not guarantee an end of British impressment of US sailors are livid with the idea of this treaty. We can't avoid upsetting some of our citizens, whatever we do, but we could avoid a war, even if the treaty appears to be lopsided. Action to @10centjimmy President Marshall to choose a response.Haitian Revolution: The Haitian Revolution puts us in a conundrum. On one hand, we like the idea of a European power, namely France, losing territory in our hemisphere. On the other hand, endorsing a revolution led by slaves is likely to upset slaveholders and possibly lead to a similar revolution in the Southern states. First US Life Insurance Policy Issued: A company in Charleston, South Carolina has created a framework for life insurance. French Revolution Quelled with Bourbons Restored!: The French Revolution has come to an end as a British-Austrian coalition has stormed and conquered Paris. The leaders of the Revolution have been rounded up, and the new King Louis is on his way from exile to take the throne.Typewriter Invented In Italy: An obscure Italian inventor named Pellegrino Turri has invented a typewriter, designed to help his blind patron write letters. Some argue that the typewriter should be distributed among those with barely legible handwriting.
