War Breaks Out In Africa

Day 203, 11:53 • Published in USA USA • by Desertfalcon

Pretoria, South Africa- Currently the only nation from Africa represented in the game South Africa has long been a target for annexation by larger nations. Today it appears that their moment of truth will soon arrive as Indonesia has finally decided they should just invade South Africa head on rather then try and take it over through the voting booth. South Africa was a hot spot about a month and a half ago when people from both Sweden and Indonesia were urged to move there to prevent one side from gaining too much power as both Sweden and Indonesia wanted to control the African nation.

However South Africa soon signed a mutual protection pact with Indonesia and things have died down about until now. With only a little over a hundred people living in South Africa their defense will probably be launched from the U.S. due to one of the U.S.'s many mutual protection pacts. Along with the U.S. two other members of the Americas bloc will join in the fight, Argentina and Venezuela.

Despite what you may think Argentina and Venezuela both have good size army's with each one in the top twenty and both have a military score of about 1/5 that of Indonesia's. Combine that with the U.S. military force and you have a close war on paper. The real test will be whether or not the South American countries have enough active citizens. Since no country from South America has been involved in a war to date we will for the first time see them take the battlefield. Most of their troops should be fresh but we will have to wait and see how active their citizens are.

On the other hand the U.S. military is getting worn down. In the past three wars they have been involved in all of them and by now their wellness and weapons supplies are starting to run low. The president has called for a reduction in the import tax of weapons in hopes of luring more imports to fuel the war but after defending Poland and the Czech Republic few soldiers will be at 100% wellness like the ones in South America. It is likely though that those troops in South America move to the U.S. in search of hospitals. For all you people planing on moving here I will tell you that the best one is a Q4 hospital and that it is located in Austin,Texas.

Another ally for South Africa who does not officially exist anymore is Australia. If the former Australians band up they still make a formidable adversary for Indonesia and if Indonesia gets beat up enough in the war it just makes things easier for them once the fight for freedom module is released. No decrees from presidents of nations of the Scandinavian or Mediterranean alliance have been made yet but one thing can be assured, South Africa will not be a push over. The winner of this war will be the one who brings in more allies and who has more of the the three things needed for war, Money, money, and more money.

More to come as the situation develops.
