Northern Alliance is Being Formed

Day 55, 00:00 • Published in Japan Japan

• by Yamato Suzuki

A pact known as the Northern Alliance is being formed in Europe and has allied Ireland, Norway, Finland and Russia.
The pact was formed as a mean to defend nations with little power from dangerous superpowers such as Sweden and Pakistan.
This pact is however not only for Europeans or small nations, this pact is for any nation aslong as it is willing to defend the peace of other nations and never provoke war.
The United Kingdom seems to be considering joining the pact, but the more important question is, could Japan join the Northern Alliance and would it serve us for the better?

I saw that too. The thing is, I would much rather be neutral for the first wars that show up. I don't think us going to war, when we have so little people, would be at all smart. That is my opinion, and I think others should think this way too. Our population and economy need to grow, before we make any commitment to something this big.

War will be remarkably expensive, and in the end just deploying troops may destroy our fragile economy. An alliance would be good in theory, if the other countries would truly come to our aid. In the event we arer attacked on our home soild, os course we will defend ourselves, that is if we can get our citizens to TRAIN everyday.

I have heard it takes moving tickets to relocate soldiers to the fronts of battles in those respective battle zones. It will also of course take weapons and food, neither of which our small citizen base will be able to produce if all the employess are fighting instead of working.

The serious unbalance of large nations versus small ones like Japan is a big flaw in the current game design. We may be unable to defend ourselves from an onslaught of Swedes or Pakis, so it is good that we are having the discussion.

There may be a failsafe in the game, I believe that BOTH countries have to have a large GDP in order to attack another. If so, we may be safe for millions of years to come.
