Toasty: Calm down. Alienating players isn't the best idea, and plus you forget that Roosevelt was an idealist. It wasn't 99% of Americans who disliked getting involved in Europe, I'd say it was more like 75% or less. Also, America took the stance after the war of international peacekeeper. With a more energetic President who could make his people believe in his decisions without question, America may have been able to take this role sooner. Plus I didn't know we had to play completely to role.
Sorry to have a go, but you need to calm down!
Also, I have a question. How many squadrons can an aircraft carrier hold?
THE TIMES NEWSPAPER
CHURCHILL DECLARES A RADICAL SHAKE-UP FOR THE EMPIRE
Winston Churchill, known more as a military man rather than a diplomat and a economist, surprised everyone today with a series of new and radical moves.
He declared that to lessen the economic strain of running the Empire, it would be split into three autonomous "Military Districts".
The name caused immediate concern from some anti-war groups, but Churchill assured them this just reflected the layout of his troops. Sources say that the Military Districts will each have their own armies to deploy, and be equipped with transports(for those split by the sea) to re-deploy quickly. This is said to be due to a lack of forces to protect the huge Empire, so Churchill is looking at methods of quick-reinforcement of areas in danger.
The three zones are known as the Atlantic Military District(Britain, Canada and the Atlantic Ocean), the African Military District(Africa, Egypt and the Middle East), and the Indian Military District(India, Australia and the Indian Ocean).
Another surprise was Churchill actually welcoming Norway's naval buildup, which many said he would oppose.
TO NORWAY
FROM BRITAIN
We wish to have good relations with you, and hope to sign an MPP with you.
TO AMERICA
FROM BRITAIN
We will of course sign a defensive MPP with you, to help prevent the spread of Communism, Fascism and Absolute Monarchies worldwide.
However, may I suggest that you do not embargo the Chinese, they are our allies against the Imperialist Japanese! The Chinese are only a military junta due to their civil war, and now their leaders have banded together to fight a common foe. That is a feat worthy of praise, not embargoes!
We will however embargo Italy, Mexico, Turkey and Japan should they continue to threaten Britain(we are withdrawing our embargo of Italy for now so as not to provoke them at this delicate time).
TO GERMANY
FROM BRITAIN
We wish you the best in your military build-up - we hope you will use it to eradicate Communism or Fascism, and not against democracies. To that ideal, we offer you a non-aggression pact.
TO ITALY, TURKEY, JAPAN, AND MEXICO
FROM BRITAIN
We will embargo you unless you begin to give your people more personal freedom, or in Turkey's case stop agitating for war.
TO RUSSIA
FROM BRITAIN
We have no love lost between our nations, but we do not wish war with the Soviets. To that end, I suggest a non-aggression pact(NAP).
