The Hundred-Hour War
•
by Shoi12
So, a lot of my loyal minions have asked me to review the current elections. Unfortunately, I have little interest in politics unless it affects me directly. So until I run for CP somewhere down the line or am part of a cabinet, you won't see any politics on this page! After all, who wants to follow a leader when they can be one instead?
Anyway, on to the main topic, the Hundred-Hour War. Yes, it's called that, because unlike a certain epic battle back in the Middle Ages, this war will end soon, no matter who wins. Why? It's actually pretty obvious.
As most of you are aware, the Brits made a pact with the Irish a few months back, promising to swap two provinces each, to better suit their countries. Simple enough, right? However, with the current situation, some Irish patriots decided to revolt in Dublin, one of the provinces traded to the British. It's very likely that Louth will also be under constant attack. While Ireland's not officially involved in this, I can guarantee that the Brits want those lands back, if only to stymie any potential double-crossing from their neighbors. So the Brits will want to finish this war quickly to get back to status quo.
With Canada reluctant to fight yet another battle against UK, France is the only front in the war. With France pummeling through British forces, it's possible that the Brits will attempt to quickly negotiate a cease fire to reestablish their deal with Ireland. And of course, as France has a mere three provinces, it wouldn't be surprising to see Britain make a comeback and wipe France, either.
So if this war will be over fast, does it mean it's a pointless war? Of course not! As UK will be a bit hasty to finish this war, they could easily wipe France with a bit of luck. This would give an extra path to the Americas, especially if Poland finishes Germany and rushes to help clean up France. On the other hand, if France remains on the offensive, Britain may be forced to cede a few southern provinces, shifting the balance of power in the north. This war will be short and sweet, right, Napoleon?
Until next time, take care!

Hi Shoi12,
Politics directly affects all, even two-clickers.
Formulating an opinion by election day can mean the difference between a dictator and a democrat. an autocrat and a pluralist, or simply an effective leader versus an in-effective one.
Hence why I ran a campaign to lead them and fight for them with lower taxes and less thrifty public spending and based on my wealth of experience and connections.
Of course I have opinions, but in my point of view, since everyone else has their own, it's pointless to try to win them over just for the lulz. If I need to convince people to see things my way, which takes a lot of effort for a person like me, I want to have a direct stake in the results, not just 'durr vote dis gye for CP cuz he maek you payless'. Besides, war's more fun ^.^
"part of a cabinet"
With the quality of this paper I think you'll be a Minister of Defence or Foreign Affairs soon 🙂
Something's in the works, yes ^.^
Ehh, I have respect for you shoi, but as long as rylde's in charge he's the only "leader". Cause if he doesn't get his way he just throws a temper tantrum till he gets it anyway, after buying every vote he can get.

''after buying every vote he can get. ''
RAE, now i know you are from AFK party!!!!
weezo, anyone who joins the old epic party that rolo PTOed gets a message saying "vote the way I tell you to and you'll get free tanks" from Rolo himself. Stfu and stop trolling, drone
Voted
The problem is Irish half wits who actually think this is RL so go mental at a land swap because we got Dublin, also tanking by Terra adds fuel to the fire.
As for France, well alot of their battles is dominated by Terra fighters as was in the East Midlands. Still we'll get our lands back as Poland have pledged to mop up every french region they take...should be a total wipe if i had my way.
