Tsar Alexander's proposal is laid before the Congress:
Item 2: The territorial settlement of Saxony and the Grand Duchy of Warsaw

In the case of the former Grand Duchy, each area (Gdansk,Poznan,Torun,Warsaw,Bialystok,Lodz,Krakow) may be:
Poznan put under Russian control (

In the case of the Kingdom of Saxony, the Kingdom is worth 100 points in total. It can be split into 10 pt parts between Austria (who wishes Saxony to be under a King loyal to them) or Prussia (annexed as a province)

Veto Clause
Russia, Prussia or Austria may veto the entire proposal if they are alone vs the 4 other majors
This motion can only be carried if
If the Russian motion is not carried when a vote is taken the Prussian delegation will be offered to propose an alternative.
If this Prussian motion is not carried, the Austrian delegation leader to propose a motion, which must fulfill the same conditions as the other before it can be passed.
If at least two of the motions failed because Russia, Prussia or Austria voted against them/vetoed, then Russia, Prussia and Austria must deduct 20 points each from their scores. The voting procedure outlined above is repeated and if no proposal is carried the same penalty may be imposed again. It should be clear that continued deadlock over the Polish and Saxon issues will so penalize Russia, Prussia and Austria that they cannot possibly win the Congress. If other powers are responsible for a dead lock, no penalty is inflicted.
