The Mage's Retort: Treating victories as victories and defeats as victories and divorces as excuses to buy camouflage.
A lot of people are upset about the victory in Kyushu. They say "well, eJapan's just a meat shield so that China can have Chugoku and prevent extinction from the Hun forces marching toward them". Well, fine, yeah. However, I think we all know that were it not for bigger problems (and, with the small chance of China's success), I think we all know China would be happy to fly the five stars over the Emperor's Sky Palace.

However, the secret is, China's going to fail. It's time is up. Just like, so long ago, it angered the Dio-whatsis of Pakistan, and got its panda-ass handed to it. Remember that? Yeah, that was the time we allowed Chinese refugees a place to rest. And...hold on, I won't continue. Alfred Ball talks about this, so I won't step on any toes.
My point, yes. Well, I don't think we're at any problem with facing China at this point anymore. Why not just take Chugoku? Sure, sure, they have a much stronger army than us. But! Perhaps this means it's time to make friends with our enemy's enemy (and, if you like eRussia as much as I do, our friend's enemy)and coordinate an attack with Hungary. In other words, aid Hungary in its conquest of China.

Of course, this will strain relations with eRussia. Yeah, I know. But this is survival we're talking about. eJapan is at its core independent. Sure, we're members of Terra and we're constantly assisting Terra's efforts. Why not, for once, play a selfish game? The US did it when we were at war with China and North Korea (the war we lost Chugoku and Kyushu to in the first place). And I'm sure other members of our alliance have done this in the past as well. Sadly, I do not know this for sure.
My recommendation is thus: Help Hungary, bite the bullet, and pray we are spared its wrath. And I'm sure helping Hungary will better our chances of survival down the road, though it will not guarantee it. It's time to think about eJapan's interest and eJapan's survival. Unfortunately, we have an incompetent president. Fortunately, we have a useful Diet. Let's work towards saving our sorry asses. Meanwhile, I will rebuild my home in Fukuoka and enjoy the beautiful view as I await execution for the things I have said here. *sigh*
