OCC:
The rankings:
1:Kazakhstan. 5 regions and a massive economy. Has also a massive military
2: Switzerland: 1 region, but economically the largest...which gives them the ability to remedy the size issue by just building massive forces. The bankers have returned to their original trade: being one of the worlds most baddass military force. The Swiss mercanarys may not be hired anymore, but the Swiss still haven't lost their bite.
3: England: 4 region (im certain its going to be a all out victory for england in scotland) island nation, owns a plane, a respectable economy, good size military. Good combination. Kazakhstan and the swissnare higher because they have larger economies and militates and have more room to expand.
4: Prussia. Prussia is smaller than what England will be, and has the weakest economy of the three. But we are militarily strong and expanding. Soon we will likely expand east and reclaim Danzig and Koingsberg...
These I consider the main powers, because either they are clearly in a good position to start expanding or already are. people: the ones who expand first will be the stronger nations. You get buffer zones and more IC.
EDIT: go England!
