Where did it go wrong?

Let's cut the bull and review.

We all know the story...

Canada attacked the UK to assist an ally that the UK was attacking as a good ally should do.

Spain, TEN times larger than Canada attacks and wipes Canada because Canada had the nerve to exercise a basic function of the game against a foe of equal standing.

For no reason other than a demonstration of epic country on country bullying, Spain keeps a significantly smaller country occupied for over eight months. Behold glory of Spain...

Each month a Canada CP attempted to negotiate with these jackholes and every month they didn't even give us the respect to treat our efforts with any sincerity. Spain never demonstrated an ounce of honour and I would not trust their word if it was forged into gold and blessed with the breath of new born baby seals.

Spain left the majority of Canada for one reason and one reason only. We paid them. We didn't defeat them in combat. Our allies didn't turn the tide. And the USA certainly didn't help us to any successful conclusion that finally freed us. We and we alone bit that painful bullet and took it.

We get matching t-shirts with USA: Two occupied by TWO

Suddenly, the USA is wiped by TWO. Oh the irony. A country that ignored our calls for assistance for the majority of our occupation, suddenly finds itself in our position. Yet still Canada, under a CW CP, comes to the aid of the USA without even being asked, as good allies should.

Suddenly the USA is interested in being allies. Sort of... Conditionally. See they don't trust our CPs. You know, the people we as a nation choose to elect per a majority. So basically they don't trust our choices. But we're allies. Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge. Just so long as we aren't in charge and don't make our own decisions.

DMW3's own words reference the USA's continued butthurt over CPs “like Rylde and Rolo” and making sure that we don't vote for any CPs like them. Great. And when future CPs come to power that don't pass the USA Overlord's seal of approval? Then what? Alliance over? Or is that the pre-fabricated excuse that will be flipped our way when the USA is freed and they don't need Canada as a static meat-shield to cover their northern ass from additional TWO attack. Three months of “trial membership” sounds like a good timeline to finally free USA with Canadian assistance. “Thanks for the help good buddy, but turns out you are really aren't CoT material. Thanks for all the tanks. 🙂”

Survey says... nothing

Every single time a Canadian CP wanted to move alliances or seek new alliances, they consulted with the Canadian public. This time. Nothing. Strange no? No review. No questions asked. No questions answered. Absolutely no details of what we can expect from an alliance with CoT. Why?

Because we get nothing.

See we went to Asgard because we wanted allies that would show up to a fight. And in fairness they did. There weren't many of them but they came when we needed them. CoT on the other hand could not give a flying fart's worth of a stink in tornado about the sovereignty of Canada.

All those nations that didn't care about Canada while we were in EDEN, do you know where they went? CoT. Shockingly, CoT has no sincere interest in Canada as a priority either. Funny that.

So what are we doing in CoT?

So we join CoT because they are bigger. Okay. And they will help finally free us from Spain. Nope.

Will they guarantee us priority support should another TWO nation attack Canada. Nope.

So what do we get? We get to fight for them, yay! Who doesn't like working for free.

But CoT is good allies, even though in over a year they have actually shown themselves to be horrible allies.

But the USA is our friends, even though a high powered microscope could not measure the size of the rat's ass they could give about our country and are actually allied with our oppressive occupiers.

How can friends of our occupiers be our friends?

See the USA has always had the numbers to push Spain out of Canada. But they won't because they are actually good buddies with Spain. WHAAAAAA? Yep, they wouldn't even have to fight Spain. Well, they actually never would fight Spain, because that's part of their agreement. But one good phone call from the USA to Spain with a “I think the occupation of Canada has gone on long enough. We think it's fair to ask that North America remain TWO free. Thanks good buddy.”

Nope, not even willing to do that.

So CoT won't help us, because we aren't a priority to them. The USA is friends with Spain and won't fight them. What the hell are we doing with these people?

To much common sense and not enough head nodding

So what are we looking for in an alliance? Here's a concept, HOW ABOUT AN ALLIANCE THAT FINALLY FREES US FROM SPAIN! Or does our country now end at Quebec?

We should have been exploring new allies. Having conversations of what we could expect from them, in addition to what they would expect from us. That would have been a completely reasonable solution. Instead we get taken to a shotgun wedding with CoT. Why? Because it's good for CoT.

Welcome to the second Canadian occupation. Think we can buy our way out of this one?
