New President in West Africa

Modupe Martins, President of the Federal Democratic Republic of West Africa​

After an intense presidential campaign in the Federal Democratic Republic of West Africa this year the final results are now in. Sitting president Yusuf Buhari has been hanging on a thread lately, with rising unrest in the newly incorporated states and the feeling among many that he was inactive and didn't do much. So it came as no surprise when a newcomer on the political stage, Mrs. Modupe Martins of the West African Unity Party, rolled in an astounding 72,4% of the vote with her campaign focused on paying back national debt and increased political representation for the non-Nigerian states. It remains to be seen what West Africa will be like under the leadership of President Martins but one thing is clear to us: she's well-liked.

The Oceania Pact would like to announce that it formally accepts the The Coalition for the National Unity of Russia into its ranks as a Primary Member. As per our Constitution, Russia is now to be considered in an alliance of mutual protection with all entities of the Oceania Pact for the furthering of global welfare and international peace and mutual prosperity, and will have voting power as an equal member for all decision making within the Pact.

Looks like some great powers look to repeat the mistakes of the past and haven't learned from recent hardships of great powers warring on a massive scale...

 

[Masada]

Yeah, that'd be China and India. I won the last struggle.

Welcome Russia.

 

[Warriorx1]

Because the Australia forces were incompetent. I hope the Chinese put up a better fight but I don't it will last more than a few rounds

 

[Masada]

If we ignore Australia over-extending, which isn't a huge sin given that China and Russia have both done it too, then we're left with one other questionable choice, total: the decision not to bring his troops in Hawaii back to Australia. That's it. The rest are just a simple case of being out manoeuvred. I'm not that critical of Australia's performance. The botched intervention by India is what killed him.

 

[Warriorx1]

Yes but if the main Aussie Army had been in the mainland, perhaps you wouldn't have been so quick to strike. This is all academics now for the historians. I'm sure grand papers will be written on the incident and how the Aussies screwed themselves by going after a vacation spot in Hawaii instead of closer, more ripe targets...

OOC: It's also a matter of how the countries are laid out and how armies and economics work. If you can capture a city you can basically hold it for ransom, hurting the enemy until the war is over and provided you have superior economics you basically win over time.

China lost 2/3 of its income in the opening attacks. With the way the rules are written for cities, you could never actually conquer the place but still effectively neuter them indefinitely as they would never have the chance to defeat you.

 

[Masada]

It did give me the opportunity but it wasn't a bad choice for expansion. The Pacific is cheap to expand into. And Chindia his allies, at least notionally had his back. The issue was China was unable to help and India messed up big time.
