ahem. We could, sure, but then that would complicate things for hogosha in liberty. Same thing with rheinland. We could hunt each other, but as both groups maintain a roughly legalish stance in those houses we'd be unwilling to throw that away willy nilly for pews.

Bretonia is, however, an opposite mirror to Kusari. Junkers hostile to Kusari, but welcome in Bret - Hogosha hostile to Bret, obvious in kusari. Junkers can pirate in Kusari, so it makes sense to allow Hogosha to pirate in Bretonia.

that's called Balance.

Going back to this.... you think that Hogosha pirating in Bretonia wouldn't complicate things for them the same it would for Liberty? You ARE aware that Bretonia and Kusari are no longer at war, right? So, I can't imagine Bretonia would feel kindly when Hoghosha shows up pirating and attacking people in Bretonia, even if they were just Junkers. It would certainly complicate Bretonia-Kusari relations even as they are just starting to normalize, and given Kusari's need to recover their economy and rebuild to get out from Gallic influence, I can't imagine the Kusari government would allow Hogosha to ruin that for them.

If Hoghosha maybe wanted special permission to attack Junkers in Inverness, that might be more the route to go, but freedom to go into Bretonia-proper just makes no sense.

And it is already well known and established that the Hogosha operate within the blessings set down by the Kusari government. So, for Hogosha to start showing up in Bretonia would mean that they are doing so with Kusari's blessing...which would put diplomatic strain between the Bretonia and Kusari governments to do something about it or risk going back to hostilities.

The reverse would happen if you started seeing a bunch of Bretonian Privateers operating within Kusari, which I think no longer have Kusari within their ZOI (I think they've been re-purposed to mainly go after Gallia). They can still try to hit them in the Taus, but should avoid pirating within Kusari's borders.

why is it bad? If you think something is bad, back it up with an argument so that we can have a discussion
