The spotlight can no longer ignore the southern hemisphere. The Great Southern War is spilling over to the entire world and demands a closer look. Therefore, the spotlight turns towards Rome. The Romans are considered both Militaristic and Commercial. Their unique unit (Legionary) is one of the most formidable unit in Ancient times, but is on the verge of obsolescence as faster and more powerful units begin to appear in the Middle Ages. They are located south of England and could be a valuable ally if we ever were to get involved in a conflict with, well, anyone else.

Once again, the purpose of this discussion is to assist this ministry in developing a cohesive foreign policy towards our fellow civilizations. For simplicity's sake, I suggest we attempt to categorize our official policy in one of the following ways:
  • Gracious Ally - These nations are considered our most trustworthy allies. All trades are generally accepted and sometimes gifts are exchanged. We would gladly come to this nation's aid in a time of need.
  • Trading Partner - Practically all proposed deals are accepted. Alliances, MPPs, and Embargoes must be discussed in the forums prior to signing.
  • Friend - Generally favorable opinion. Most trades are accepted unless not in our best interests. Alliances, MPPs, and Embargoes must be discussed in the forums prior to signing.
  • Rival - Generally unfavorable opinion, but publicly treated as a Friend. Most trades are accepted unless not in our best interests. Alliances, MPPs, and Embargoes with this nation will not be accepted, and those against must be discussed in the forums prior to signing.
  • Foe - Generally unliked. Technologies are not proferred to this nation and most trade deals would be rejected unless we clearly benefit more. Embargoes are our prefered weapon against these nations, and Alliances and MPPs against this nation must be discussed in the forums prior to signing.
  • Hated Enemy - As the name implies, these nations would be our most hated enemies. No trades are offered or accepted. We would actively seek to establish Trade Embargoes against these nations whenever possible and all out war is preferred to peace.
 
We should have the Romas be our friends :).
 
Friends. Could be useful if hostilities ever flare up with England or America, and its better to be nice to them than to be an enemy, if for no other reason than their abilities (militaristic makes them a potential threat) and the fact that they never seem to forget an insult (high aggressive rating.)

All roads lead to Rome....
 
Friends.
 
Friend. We need strong southern allies, especially if we want to expand east.
