Obviously we help our allies, if only to get some war taxes to counter the very high costs of our widespread colonization in Vinland and Siberia.

King Frederick II came to an important conclusion; we fervently fight against Catholic influence, and our Indian and Southeast Asian conquests brought us millions of Muslims, Hinduists and even Buddhists.
A change of policies will now see those distant subjects of British Crown are treated better (to boost population growth and lessen revolt risk) - better than Catholics, ironically, who live in Europe, just across The Channel.

This is extremely disconverting and worrying - our colonies in Siberia are merely going up at the moment, and we don't even have any troops stationed there!
We will try to solve the war before they ravage the precious Siberian holdings.

There will be
hell to pay - the Manchu agreed to our white peace at exact same day they seized Saghalian Oula.
This vile Manchu trickery will not be forgiven OR forgotten.

King Frederick decides that it is a good moment to capture and annex Orissan provinces, one of those being a British core (thanks British India Company, <3 u)

Not this time, you filthy Catholic scum!

We annex Orissa; meanwhile Deva Bengal, our vassal, is doing its damnedest to prick Assam in the side.
We will help, and reward their bravery with a province; they have some cores downwards from their capital.

As you can see, we're good overlords!
Netherlands asks us to partake in a war against Alsace so we gladly accept-

-whoa mama Netherlands dropped the ball
hard!

We decide that Antwerpen was given a leeway for too long; preachers are sent to this final outpost of Catholicism within Great Britain!
Meanwhile, we put pressure on Alsace whilst Netherlands is getting its shit kicked by Austria and friends.

Alsatians are mighty fine warriors, but we prevail in (most) engagements.
After retreating from Elsass, we catch them unprepared at Mainz, and defeat them in detail.

They sneak through Champagne and Brittany to strike at Normandie; King Frederick II takes command personally.
Fighting them twice is enough to destroy them at Caux.

Soon enough, that prompts them to seek peace with Netherlands.
King Frederick sends monetary subsides to Netherlands as they do not call us to help.

They do, but against Portugal, who decided it is an opportunity to steal their colonies.
We will help them rethink that idea.

King Frederick, despite being aged about 60, personally oversees that it shall happen!

And with the landmark that is possessions of 100 Big Ships, we can get this bonus.
Two weeks later, Portugal agrees to a white peace.
Still, Netherlands is far from safe or victorious. The British pray for their safety!
