The Upcoming War [UPDATE]

Day 410, 18:10 • Published in Japan Japan • by Yamato Suzuki
The Three Options
With Iran to invade China we must decide upon something we can stick by.
I. We can either defend our cultural brothers to the last fight and support their rebellions to keep Pakistan and Iran away from the Korean peninsula.
II. We can consider China a doomed cause and occupy all of South Korea before Iran occupies these parts.
III. We do nothing and prepare for an invasion.

They're risky plans, China's only ally in the war is Japan, and were we to fail we'd have little time before Iran invades Korea and then moves into Japan or straightly goes to invade Japan.
Invading Korea could take more time than we expect seeing as how people like to involve themselves in others wars, and this would leave our soldiers exhausted before Iran invades.

The Economic Crisis
It's entirely possible that the yen stolen to buy all our food is infact an Iranian ploy and strategy used to weaken us before they go to war with us.
We must act quickly and contact the administrators.

PEACE [Update]
Since I've been gone for a while there are some things I've missed, I'm sorry for this.
Iran is Japan's ally through PEACE, but China is also our ally.
I am not sure why we're allied with China, but by declaring war on China Iran has completely neglected Japan. Unfortunately there is nothing in the PEACE charter on a PEACE member declaring war on an independent nation protected by a PEACE member.
It can be both a problem since we have a MPP outside of PEACE, and it can be a problem since Iran ignored the fact they'd be in war with a fellow PEACE member.

The War is Here [Update]
We're now officially at war with Iran due to our MPP with China.
Akki has stated the Japanese government will do nothing in the war, but that it will be impossible to keep Japs from defending China anyway.
It's all up to the lone soldiers now on what that happens.


Korea in the Past
The first day I entered office Pakistan declared war against China.
At the time we were close allies with China, but we wouldn't be able to defend China by ourselves.
At the last moment before the war was to begin we were ready to fight, but the Chinese president instead told us to break the MPP (it was possible to break them immedietly back then) and instead prepare ourselves for a possible invasion on our soil.
Eventually as Pakistan closed up to the Korean peninsula we pleaded to South Korea to ally with us and others so they don't fall to Pakistan. Instead our Korean ally ignored us, and in order to preserve Korea from Pakistan we occupied the country. With our MPPs, which Korea lacked, we were able to avoid Pakistan attacking us.
During this time Japan and Korea also faced a food crisis, and with the addition of a small amount of Korean workers we were able to improve the circumstances with more food productivity.

Korea in the Future
Korea has rebelled and cost us more than 500 gold in damage (or atleast so I've heard), and Korea can't pay us back due to the fact they lack the gold.
Therefore I suggest we give Korea all of their regions once they have the population to handle themselves alone, but that we keep a single region of Korea until they can pay back the costs.

This could work out as a deal signed on the forums, with admins involved to deal the regions.
