Since December 22, after the Kingdom of Spain was changed to the Kingdom of Castile, Portugal and the Imbilia Alliance officially announced a ceasefire and began negotiations with the Kingdom of Castile.
In order to protect more interests, Castile strives to improve its own value when wooing other countries to stand for itself. He shows to all countries that only by maintaining Castile's interests to the greatest extent can it win the war in the Imbilia Peninsula. Keep Portugal involved and make Europe more balanced.
The Castilians are still struggling. While they want to keep the main body of Castile, they also want to gain a name by granting autonomy to the already independent Aragon, Navarre, and Andalusia. sovereignty over.
The Castilians have not given up their dream of becoming a great power. They also hope that one day Portugal will decline and Castile will regain its strength, so they do not want the three places to become independent.
If these three places are really independent, even if Portugal declines and there is no nominal power to rule, Castile's desire to restore Spain is still a dream.
Unfortunately, although all European countries knew that maintaining as large a territory as possible in the Kingdom of Castile could contain Portugal, they also knew that this war had destroyed Castile's potential, so they sided with Portugal at this time. , is still the best choice.
In this war, the alliance between Portugal and Imbilia destroyed almost all of Castile's military and industrial facilities. With Castile's potential, it was unrealistic to develop the power to contain Portugal.
During this Spanish-Portuguese War, Aragon, Navarre, and Andalusia broke away from Castilian rule, and Portugal occupied Galicia, Leon, and Andalusia's Huelva, Cadiz, and Seville. Ya.
Not only that, even the main area of Castile also lost many areas, and the losses were absolutely heavy.
The two regions of Cantabria and Murcia on the coast of Castile were occupied by Portugal and the Imbian League, and Toledo, Avila, Valladolid, and Palen in the hinterland of Castile. West Asia was captured by Portugal, and 1/3 of the capital Madrid was captured by Portugal.
This Spanish-Portuguese War directly shattered Spain. From now on, the Castilians will really only be the Kingdom of Castile, and there will be no Spain in the world.
For the great powers, it is their best effort to help Castile retain its main body. As for other regions, it would offend the Portuguese, Aragonese and other Imbian peoples.
In the Imbilia Peninsula, almost every ethnic group has a bad relationship with the Castilians. There is no need for the great powers to spend huge losses to make wedding dresses for the Castilians.
Since Portugal launched its diplomatic offensive, no country among the great powers, except the United States, has supported the Castilian peace talks.
On December 22, the day before the negotiations were announced, Portugal, Luxembourg, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia, Greece, Montenegro, Liechtenstein, and San Marino in Europe; Venezuela, Ecuador, Paraguay, and Uruguay in South America; and Asia Japan, Romania, Persia, Liberia in Africa, and Ethiopia have recognized the independent state status of Aragon, Navarre, and Andalusia.
After the formal peace talks, Portugal exerted its efforts against the great powers. The European powers and other countries that had not expressed their stance also supported the alliance between Portugal and Imbilia.
On December 22, Britain, France, and Monaco recognized the independent state status of Aragon, Navarre, and Andalusia.
On December 23, Sweden and Denmark recognized the independent state status of Aragon, Navarra, and Andalusia.
On December 24, Russia and Switzerland recognized the independent state status of Aragon, Navarre, and Andalusia.
On December 25, Germany and Austria-Hungary recognized the independent state status of Aragon, Navarre, and Andalusia.
On December 26, Belgium recognized Aragon, Navarre, and Andalusia as independent states.
Castile's peace talks with Portugal and the Liberian Alliance became increasingly desperate as time went by, and the demands for negotiations became lower and lower.
On the third day of negotiations, Castile gave up its claims to Aragon, Navarre, and Andalusia, and turned its full efforts to preserving the main body of Castile.
In order to keep Cantabria, Murcia, Avila and other places, Spain expressed its willingness to give up all overseas colonies, limit its navy and army, and pay war reparations during the negotiations.
The European powers, of course, have limits on their support for Portugal. It is their consensus that Castile retains its main body, so they actively support Castile's request.
As for Portugal, now that it has defeated Castile and gained a large amount of territory, and at the same time Aragon, Navarre, and Andalusia have become independent, then all the goals have been achieved, and the rest are all It's a section.
On December 30, after a series of negotiations, Castile signed the "Lisbon Peace Treaty" in Lisbon with Portugal, Aragon, Navarra, and Andalusia.
The Lisbon Treaty has 5 major items and 21 articles in total. In the treaty, the requirements of Portugal, as a victorious country, were fully met.

…
The 21st Treaty of the Lisbon Peace Treaty, apart from keeping the theme intact, is undoubtedly unfair to Castile in other aspects.
Although Castile argued hard, even with the help of the great powers, due to the strength of the enemy and our weakness, it could only ensure its own bottom line as much as possible.
For example, investment in important industrial commerce, Castilian industry was suppressed, and only commercial protection was retained.
Commercially, Portugal cannot invest in Castile in the banking and financial fields, and cannot speculate on market prices, but as compensation, Castile allows Portugal to invest in light industry and heavy metallurgy.
"Lisbon Peace Treaty", after the signing of Twenty-One. Portugal, Aragon, Navarre, and Andalusia are naturally full of laughter and joy, and there are celebrations everywhere.
Especially the Portuguese Empire, from Portugal to Brazil to the colonies, everyone is cheering for the empire's victory and celebrating the empire's establishment of hegemony over the Imbilia Peninsula.
As a loser, Castile naturally fell into sadness. It was necessary to blame and blame each other in the country. It also played the classic game of finding traitors.
In addition to these common behaviors of defeated countries, revolutionary uprisings against the kingdom and seeking republics also occurred in many places, especially in the capital area.
However, most of the so-called revolutionary uprisings that broke out across Spain were initiated by students, workers, and some farmers, with few of the kingdom's nobles, capitalists, and the military participating.
Although these revolutionary uprisings were quite numerous, in the final analysis they were just harassment and were quickly suppressed by the royal government.
In fact, what is the use of these people starting an uprising? It's just a useless sacrifice.
So what if it succeeds? Are we going to fight again with Portugal and the Imbilia alliance? Does Castile still have that capital?
Unfortunately, students and workers are the easiest to fall for. They are undoubtedly patriotic, but their uprising was just inspired by some so-called opinion leaders.
They had no idea that Castile at this time could no longer withstand the struggle.
What Castile urgently needs now is stability and development. Castile owes a lot of debt for the war. If the debt is not repaid, it will only be worse when the deadline is reached.
