Well If you think so. Really I have no wish to discuss reality though. I just thought it would be whimsical to compare the real world as a SE4 game and decide which position and treaties countries have. Were it to be in a general forum (and I only read the SE4 forum) and If people want to get into an indepth discussion of world politics then I'd rather not get involved. Too much opposing politics criticising each other.

Edit: on second thoughts I suppose if more people are interested the better. I just have a fear of things going downhill when the political opposition starts calling certain governments fascist lackeys of the right wing.

If you were going by score, the US would have already triggered mega-evil status and would be a threat to the other sentient races.

. Quite right. I thought Evil Empire was when you owned most of the map. Is it 300% of 2nd or something?.

Do I have to repost the thread in General Forum, or will a Moderator do it?.

Thats why I was worried by Atrocities suggestion. I couldn't see why people outside the game would, or could, compare SE4 to real life. I jumped to the conclusion he was thinking of the political environment. I have been thinking even people outside the game could do something like discuss what "Rank" countries are.

I thought Kiwi Land pulled out of ANZUS 10 years ago, so you would have no military alliance with the US. I think there might be a treaty between us though. The problem is also that (I think) New Zealand has about 2 patrol boats as a navy, and you scrapped all your fighters so you have practically no air force. I used to be worried that Australia was at risk from Indonesia, but have learnt they might have 10 times the troops but they wouldn't stand a chance as our airforce is by far superior to any potential threat. Plus of course at the first sign of trouble we would go crying to the US to save us .
