Brief Thoughts on the World
Poland vs Serbia:
Yeah I'll believe that they are really building separate alliances, when they actually go head to head, until then to me it is all a ploy to tear apart other old friendships to the benefit of the two nations. But I guess certain nations never learn their lessons; USA.
China:
Not really a review, just a general thought, why is it no one ever really messes with China? The one time I've seen it in memory Poland got beat down, and yet Allies of China never truly seem to benefit the same way...something suspicious about that.
Spain:
Pulling a Chile here, trying to hide from your wipe? If you don't know what I mean, it is what Chile did by hiding behind New Zealand in Australia for months, while Argentina was dominating in South America, but now the two have an NAP, so Chile is now just abusing both Australia and New Zealand cuz they can and no one cares enough to care about stopping them.
USA:
Sold out for its region, I feel I've said that before...and I know I've said the following before, I remember when this country was willing to sacrifice some of its own regions for the good of its allies, what happened to that...When upper players would argue with those who worried about the regions of the USA being taken, now a lot of those same people argue USA interests come first, Allies second, what happened?
European Questions:
France, Belgium? Where you at? And why does everyone hate Austria?

Voted!
Voted, but it makes me wonder ... who hates Austria and why 😛
Good stuff, Cody!
Yeah, why does Austria get hate? O.O
On China... I guess people think "let's not wake the sleeping dog... or better call it; let's not wake the sleeping dragon!". If a nation such as China or India really RL comes awake in erep both Poland and Serbia will be eaten for lunch in no-time.
China has no initiative to expand, they already have all resources and no major threats in the area. Their immigration policy is a good example of how little they care about allies or loyalty.
''...so Chile is now just abusing both Australia and New Zealand cuz they can and no one cares enough to care about stopping them.''
So, so true.
USA is a joke.
I'm pretty sure China doesn't care about anyone but themselves... not enough to really put muscle behind their words. They are still a mediocre ally overall.
Pol - Serb: Yeah, that's been happening since beta.
China: The two greatest erep battles were in China, hello kitty and lion king. They're inclined to join the Serb side rather than their current neutrality so we'll see what happens. If only indo pulled itself together like the old days.
Spain: Who wouldn't hide from a wipe. We AS'd into Canada to avoid further wipe.
USA: A good friend listens to your advice. Canada is flapping its dick on the keyboard with poorly executed attacks on the UK and by backstabbing a recent NAP with Spain. Perfectly fine to search for new friends that actually contribute to your nation. Allies second has been going on in all major countries, illustrated by the use of a sub-alliance.
EU questions:
France is pro Serbia, Belgium pro Poland. France is going to be Serbia's Italy. Hammered non stop by a lot of neighboring enemies.
PS
Austria: Slo's tried hiding behind Austria and chilling out in Swiss, so Croatia NE'd Austria to keep contact with Slo.
The Issue I have with the USA is more than Canada. So you shouldn't assume that it is just Canada, when I first joined this game, I didn't understand the USA policy of war and why we were losing so many regions, I was told we were making sacrifices for our allies, now the USA which made a deal with Poland and Spain to be free seems scared to risk even one region. Which also unless I missed a deal update, broke its own deal by freeing the east coast regions from Poland and Spain. The only difference is USA keeps pleasing its new masters, while Canada got uppity with the UK.
The rest I'm kind of indifferent on, and the Austria bit was a bit of a joke lol.
US is sacrificing for allies by attacking Canada while having 3 drain RW's which makes it pretty even imo. Canada basically demands to have allies yet does very little for their benefit in return. They tried to let NL kamikaze into the UK mid November and when we refused they went to the opposition (vS) and bullshitted him with some story about getting us into alliance talks.
Sorry, Garmr, but I don't think USA had much of a backbone here. They need to pick a side and stick with it.
They did, Canada did nothing productive for them for a long time and they refused to take a diplomatic path towards SPLUS
The US is UKing.
