To tell you the truth, I'm still a bit confused about why Boston should or shouldn't be liberated. As far as I understood the "owner" left and thus the realm came to be free loot. And by this I, at least think, mean is that it wasn't hijacked FROM the rulers. In those cases I've voted yes, but in this case I seem to be.. indecisive. Citing that nazi/fascist regionism isn't cool in a game where we play out our fantasies (to a certain point), I fail to see why Boston should be liberated. The way I see it is like Poland would have said "screw it" and let anyone to take charge instead of becoming a target for hostile forces.
I mean, English isn't my native language and all that. Am I missing something important here?
