Nation Building 2028 A World of Strife (Modern)

Rant Number 106 Incoming!


Considering asking @lcomstock4 if I can just officially change nation haha. It seems everyone has a vendetta against U.K. Whilst I was hopeful of Russian aid, a complete coalition of Europe is basically unstoppable. India invading Pakistan? Nobody bats an eye. South Africa soon to take over CTF? That's fair enough. France annexes a city for zero reason, only Sweden really cares. U.S.A declares open war against a European nation? Everybody supports them. Realistically, if the U.S declared on any European nation it'd be U.S.A vs Europe. What's the point in backing down if there's literally nothing else to do in terms of stopping IRA Terror attacks which will make public opinion plummet?


At least Japan could comfortably invade a fractured China. The Chinese at this point probably want new rule due to the food shortages; and with Japan's economy (2nd richest in the world) they could probably buy enough food to feed the whole country. It being split in three just makes it easier. Unless U.S.A declared a war against Japanese aggression, despite them essentially hating China. Then again, they were close friends with U.K, my first post even attempted to solidify that, but nope.


(I also suspect hostility from the Balkan Confederation/Nordic Union)


I almost feel like King Harold of England in 1066. Poor guy was sandwiched between two invasions, stopped Harold Hardrade like a boss. Marched his army across the country, did pretty well against William the Conqueror at first. Then bam, arrow in the eye, dead. English army, dead. England, ruled by Normans.

If you want to fight sure, but don't fight me until Project Martyr finishes.
Why would I attack someone so far away? There are easyier targets right next to me
 
To clarify, what Yog said about Tuskens he is joking about a WWI Rp we do together on a different site with a mod who does the most random events just to troll people. This includes the spontaneous generation of Tusken Raiders in Libya.

Declaring war to a Middle-Eastern state might not be a good choice for you Albania and Bosnia are mostly populated by Muslims while the others have considerable minority. A war with respected states might shatter your fragile union

Plus I think Turkey, despite distrusting Iran may not take kindly to such a declaration :P

But you have to admit your reasons for declaring war were weak at best , normally one wouldn't go to war due to a non state actor attempting an assassination.


While india's attack on pakistan was well founded in the fact Pakistani forces have crossed the LOC in the past resulting in war (Kargil).

I'm so tired of saying the same thing over and over again... But...


I had no choice; the assassination attempt was followed by an uproar from the British people demanding justice, we all know what happens when the public are outraged over something they want from the government and don't get it. A coup de'tat, since the start my #1 focus has been securing public support, not to mention it's pretty much guaranteed that the Irish government ARE behind it. I'd rather jut go down fighting for the right reasons, than let IRA terrorists ravage the country from the inside, whilst it crumbles due to a weak-spined leader who the public begin to despise.

Alright I get it , but now i think we should discuss if there is any way of winning this war , the only way I see is if France backs out , taking Germany and other European countries with him

I have no problem with you playing another nation. It does stink that the world turned against you. The truth is that French and British Relations where already high everyone was a little PO'ed at France for Monaco but they pulled out. But in Ireland you invaded after everyone warned you not to invade. Also this is probably reinforced by the fact you are a Dictator. Though this is not always bad It does paint you as a nefarious figure. Sorry things didn't turn out well in Britain but that's many nations fall. Feel free to change to any non played nation of your choice. I know you wouldn't but I would like to add just for future clarification when you play a new nation try not to hold grudges or previous notions based off your last country.

I know its too late but there are always options.. its a shame the US declared war so rashly.
