The Second Moroccan Crisis can also be referred to as the Agadir Crisis. Ernst wasn't particularly familiar with this piece of history, but the fact that it left an impression on him indicates its significance.
In the following days, East Africa's European intelligence system continuously relayed updates to the East African mainland about the movements of Germany and France during this current crisis.
"Nationalistic sentiments are running high in the public opinions of Germany and France, and there are signs of troop mobilizations to the frontline. A war between Germany and France might break out!"
This was the news that came back on the second day after the Agadir Crisis erupted, causing concern for the East African Government, especially for Ernst. In his heart, he hoped that Europe would not go to war at this time.
