Allied but for what?

Hi

Please excuse mine bad English

Im playing as Venice, and had alliance with both HRE and Sicily, and they both with eachotha. In about round 30, Sicily attacked/sieged Hre (

). So i decided to help HRE out (

) and send a 15stack army towards the sieged city, attacked Sicily, and won the battle together with HRE.
But suddenly,after the battle, i get a report that relations worsted with HRE, and the pope wants me to make peace,and threats with excommunication if i attack Sicily once again. And Byzantium breaks the alliance too.
Why does things like this happends? Is it possible to write a script, like that you get rep with a faction if you help them out in a battle or some like that? Or was it just a bug?

sorry for my bad english once again.

Your English is fine! I have heard English people speak worse

The diplomacy of the AI is pants! They will always stab you in the back and things, I kinda like it though, it makes the game less predictive.

Because you entered their territory without military access. AI isn't that thankful. Anyways, send a diplomat and gift them florins.

I actually had military access. And they to. Our relationship is good now, but that was really strange. IS it possible to make AI "greatfull" ?

I think in your case you attacked their 'ally' before Sicily declared war on HRE.
