[PotUS] Battle of Papua, War with Indonesia, and the American Spirit.
Trekker Tlumac
A Natural Enemy decree has been sanctioned by the United States against Indonesia, and by Indonesia against the United States.
The United States NE declaration was set first and this gives us the first initiative.
A little over three hours ago I started the campaign to conquer Papua, the sole connecting region between the United States and Indonesia. In the coming days there will be battles and campaigns over the lands between our countries.
Two rounds in and the US has a small points advantage, having swept the first round in all four divisions and having lost D3/D4 in the second round.
It seems things are about to become more interesting and less complacent.
As Americans, we can be obnoxious, loud, and even a bit arrogant. At least that is how we are often perceived, by others and, at times, even ourselves. I do not see it this way.
We are a proud country of proud people. We are brimming with energetic ability and no outlet. Like the hyper five year old we oft have a disconnection with who we can be and who we feel we are.
Does this make us evil? No. Does this make us bad? No. Or does this even make us stupid? Resounding no.
That which we cannot articulate does not inherently make us flawed. Articulation requires a knowledge that must be learned through trials and triumphs. In contemporary times articulation is usually reserved for someone trying to explain an advanced idea or concept. At the root, though, the word has a higher meaning of being able to express something in way that eases communication or understanding.
Expression does not have to mean words. It can be any action.
So in this sense the articulation I am referring to is our ability (as a people) to show what we can be. It is in that potential that all people should listen.
What do I think the American people can be? What divine future holds us?
The short answer there is that no one decides our fate but ourselves.
We can look to the stares and will them to show us who we are meant to be for all ages. Without definitive action from the people, that will never happen. We must step forward and prove ourselves worthy of such glories.
If we want to know what we can truly be, we must be that which we have never been (in living memory for many eReppers, at least). We must seize greatness of our own. And learn to be the community that we are capable of, if we only learn how to articulate it.
We are at war with a worthy enemy. Historically we have fought many acclaimed battles with this foe. We can respect their ability even while we fight against them.
Together we will fight this enemy. And together we shall grow closer to greatness.
Now I call to you, my comrades and friends:
Let us march forth and bring the fight to our enemy. Let us find our footing of greatness among the giants of the past upon whose shoulders we have grown into our own. Let us bring glory to the United States of America!
- President Trekker Spanksalot Tlumac

Good job. Thanks for listening. The stagnation and complacency of doing nothing will be our end. Nice to see something being done about that.

Once we finish of Indo we need to attack Cuba, followed by Japan. RW regions back and restart. Do that and you will win the next 40 elections.

Taiwan and Russia (countries in our alliance) pretty much has Japan in a deadlock. Plus we gave Cuba back already, so apparently we're not really interested.
Attack the slightly vulnerable countries (Moldova, Singapore, Canada, etc.)
This way we would have a solid lineup

ooh I like maps
I get your drift.
But honestly another meaningless war against a nation that is safe.
Indo is pretty much shattered nation.
Easy pickings for us.
No challenge.
Whatever,
Nevermind.
It is very hard not to like you, even when all comments seem like you want to slap me around.
Thank you for bringing me entertainment and ensuring that I feel humble. You are one of the more consistent commentors I get on my papers as of late.
And I am being serious, I like you man. 🙂
Trekker the destroyer of enemies. For an enemy is destroyed when they become a friend. :3

You think you are the first to be slapped around by Shiloh?
He just speaks his mind to WHOMEVER is CP. THAT is what makes him awesome!
Truth be told, I gotta agree here. Even though we are attacking a nation, this is akin to attacking Spain or Canada at this point.
We all know we need war, but we need challenge too.
But, in a re-election bid, this is a sound political move and any war is better than none, I guess.

I know shiloh speaks his mind like that to whoever. Which is why I like him. I never once thought of him as malicious. 😛
And you underestimate me once more by assuming this was a political bid. But of course that is how you feel about me and I refuse to beat a dead horse by trying to prove otherwise. 🙂
I hope you still love me when all is said and done. Hard and Rough, as always. 🙂
A war even against a shattered nation as Indo, but with a great damage though, I think it's a great chance both to USA and their friends from pro-Asteria side!
I like when things go boom
