What I was saying is that there was plenty of unclaimed land around the globe, but you had to go steal it off somebody else.

Commander Janica has two quick things to say:
1. We declared war on Germany for their use of chemical weapons, it was not the wish of the country, being a peaceful socialist nation, to enter war, but the use of chemical weapons made us chance our mind.
2. So long as Arabia has land in Europe we will remain at war.

XONES:

Considering Africa easily has the most free land of any continent, it will be fairly interesting to watch the Zulu attempting to enforce their doctrine.

Says the guy who is nibbling away at Arabia, whereas there is plenty of global free land.

I'm not invading Arabia because I want "more fertile land". I'm invading Arabia because they won't pull out of Europe. Once they pull out of Europe and repaid me for all the trouble I've gone to, I won't interfere in their affairs at all. Until then I am attacking them.

So, when closely examined, your argument falls apart becuase our reasons for war couldn't possibly be more different.

Your logic is.. well..non existent.

So tell me, instead of "liberating" Arabian provinces in Europe, you instead invade their mainland? How does that liberate Europe?

Aka you are a hypocrite, condemning someone for taking fertile land when there was free land available, whilst simultaneously invading land off of someone else for no other reason than territorial expansion.

"I'm killing them so they will go to peace" is not a legitimate nor an effective strategy.

Equestria:

It is a clear lesson in empathy, as now the Arabs know what it is like to be mostly minding their own business and then all of a sudden finding themselves under foreign occupation.

It also divides the Arabs into two fronts. Had RUAC invaded European territories, the Arabic defenses would be concentrated and enormous. Now, the Arabs must divide between two warzones, aiding the SUDS in taking back what is rightfully theirs.

I was going to respond to that, but Equestria put it better than I could have myself. Thanks!

Aka, "I can't argue so I'll let someone else do it for me."

Well done!

Aka, "I don't have an argument so I'll just post something condesending."

Well done!

Okay this is just getting ridiculous. You're trying to justify invading another country who did nothing to you.

In any case, you've caused petty insults on both sides thus,

This topic/conversation ends here.

I couldn't agree more.

OOC: Why did the US prepare to invade mainland Japan instead of Japan's conquests in China/Korea?

Why did the Crimean War take the fight to Russia instead of outside of Istanbul?

Why did the seven years war, which started in North America, was fought mostly in Europe with scattered battles elsewhere?

Simple, the only true way to force a decisive decision is an invasion of the homeland. This will display the uselessness of colonial possessions when dat vatherlund is under occupation. This is pure, geopolitical and realpolitik fact. Colonial mucking will achieve nothing. Losing some land isn't felt hard on the hearts of the homeland, and gaining some land is a passive bonus. Want to fight? Strike for the heart. Negotiate later.

Now that you know, use it to your benefit. :3

EDIT: Considering joining this, some time or another.

If Scandinavian's enemies will not agree to basic and decent peace terms Scandinavia will have no choice but to end the war by crushing the governments of their enemies. They simply do not understand why the other world powers are being so illogical and irrational.

BTW: Who exactly am I at war with anyway?

Everyone.

(No, only S.U.D.S, New Zulu, R.U.A.C, Austria, Venice and Imperial Germany).

Tibet expands for the glory of the Tulku's and so that the Buddhist teachings of suffering, despair and oblivion may be disseminated far across the world. Even the nuclear blasted chinese waste-cities shall now feel the sickly green rays of the Buddha's teachings.

Since when. I never showed hostility to Venice or Austria or RUAC or even SUDS for that matter.

Ah, but you invaded Imperial Germany. And Imperial Germany was helping us in our war against Nazi Germany. So we're allies and allies defend each other.

Venice is in a state of war with the Scandinavian Empire as a result of attacking a member of GED. GED members defend their brothers and sisters.
