[RFC Marathon] Realpolitik America

BREAKING NEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The American City of Guantanamo built in Cuba is under revolt, the natives of Cuba demand that the city joins English Mexico, a country they feel they have more ties to. Due to the urgency of the act, it is solely up to the VP Lighthearter to decide how to go through with this.

Do we declare war on the Aztecs and English for funding the rebels
just send in the redcoats to get the city back under are control
do we gift the city to Montezuma
or other
 
As the ministry of military I strongly recommend to not give in, the English and the Aztecs will have to fight for the city and our military should be strong enough to repel any invasion.
 
Giving to Monty is not a bad idea. A strong buffer state of Mexico would be needed for our isolationist policy.
However, we should no way give the city to the English, or whatever else.
 
Maybe they will pass the territorial threshold, and break free?
 
In response to the demands from the peoples of Guantanamo I have only this to say:

"Let Freedom be Freedom, but since these peoples seek not to establish a more perfect union but to rend it and depart to another land, I say America shall never allow her rightful territory to fall prey to malicious discontent sown from the seeds of temporary dissent and dissatisfaction. And if the British come for Guantanamo, I say this:

Come and take it! Or are you scared?"


I trust in YOU, BurnEmDown, to protect Cuba from any potential threat.

- Lighthearter, Vice-President of the United States
 
The main concern of a war is our army is half as strong as theirs.

The President is currently in Portugal, if he can sign yet another defensive pact, then a war with Britain will be a breeze, We can bring in Japan, Portugal and Russia to help us. Japan and Russia are the two world powers, the fight would be a breeze. However Japan has a large colony in on the coast of America, so we would have to race for Edmonton (the super city with 2 wheat 4 U and 2 Oil)
 
If we are to go to war, we should do it all alone.
If we really need an ally, it should be Russia.
 
I'd like to ask the foreign minister to seek support against the Imperialist British in the wold world. A two-front war would not only severely cripple the British but would mean we could expand much more than if the British could focus on us alone.

By the way ilduce, since our president is away are you giving your reports to Lighthearter instead?
If so Lighthearter I would like to know more about our military situation, for example how many units are in each city and what do we know about the British cities in America.
 
Logically thinking, the future ally should be in striking distance from England, so it can hit it instead of a situation of "hey I have a virtual ally". I would like to have a list of English colonies and English land before having a decision on the ally.
 
Ok,
basiclly what we have so far:
Anarchy
Decided our builds
Last thing to decide:

The people of Washington (well the settlers) wish to expand, they ask you, the senate, where to expand to. This will be the last vote before the update. The votes will be counted on Monday, only current members of parties get votes, each member gets party votes/members. 18/35 needed to win.

A) We will not find a city in Florida

B) A city in Quebec will be founded soon

C) A city in Cuba will be founded soon

D) We will not find a city in Africa

E) We will not find a city in South America

It has been decided, Expect an update tonight or tomorrow.

Why can't we found a city in Florida (Or is this just immediate future)

Build a city in Florida and change name to Ft Myers!!!!

Seriously though, build one city in Florida eventually.

Oh, its a vote. I vote yes build a city in Florida, because I like Florida!!!!
 
So does this mean war, or no war?

Do we need to declare war, or can we just not give them the city?

Well, if we invade Mexico, we all get free tacos!!!

Seriously, if our army is half their strength, don't invade if we can help it, but don't give up the city, even if war is needed to make that reality.
