Suez Crisis challenged British and French authority and sealed their fate as dying empires. Many see it as the end of European Imperialism and the rise of the Two World Orders - The West and the East.

Unironically one of the more overhyped executions, specifically by Norwegian fascists who think it's cool when it frankly is pointless.

Why not Crucifixion, the punishment so awful they invented a new word to describe it - excruciating.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer little comrade. :D

Don't worry, I'm not about to repeat the mistake of talking to that crowd again. Rebooting that mess of factbooks was long overdue anyway, busied myself sketching out a new backstory and history for this one. How do you like the new flag?
