Is the USA a threat to your nation?

[Mascadonia]

Our badlands may or may not have oil in them. Who knows when America might want to find out?

They're definitely a looming threat.

[Somali Caliphate]

The U.S we consider to be a pest and an annoyance, however they would not be able to greatly threat us due to our vast size in land, population, military and economy. The only threat they could pose is to fuel internal conflicts in our kingdom.

[Mapletish]

Not really a threat and most certainly not a potential threat.

[Eastern European Nations]

Americans are capitalist pigs
We don't want them anywhere near our country or our region

[Zevassa]

Zevassa is a small, neutral, peaceful nation with no nuclear arms, a small military, and no major or strategic resources they don't already possess. For all intents and purposes we're on par with nations like Guyana, Holland and New Zealand.

[Crogach]

Militarily the US isn't much of a threat; we have chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons in spades and while we signed onto the NNPT we also have enough warheads to wipe out the planet several times over. Our military is two to three times as big as that of the US, and while we don't have quite as many exotic toys the men and women on the ground are at least as well equipped as our American counterparts. We also have enough in common with them that there's little chance of full-scale hostilities; diplomatic spats, on the other hand, are rather common.

We've been aware of and dealt with the USA since World War I, and we fought alongside them in both World Wars. We had problems with them in the 1950s and 1970s; we've had nuclear weapons since 1947, and our government has typically been well to the left of where your average Cold War president was comfortable with. There were a couple of incidents involving the CIA and a few of our homegrown right-wing loonies during the Second Red Scare, but nothing really came of that other than a few rather stern diplomatic missive to the effect that we were their allies against Soviet dictatorship, but that we were not their satellite state and we would not tolerate meddling in our internal affairs.

We worked alongside Jimmy Carter to get the Iranian hostages released, but to no avail, but relations cooled dramatically under Reagan and Bush I. We maintained extensive ties with Clinton's America, and we were still close to them when 9/11 happened; we sent a detachment or two of our peacekeepers to the US to assist with first response and reconstruction efforts and we were one of the senior partners in the coalition that invaded Afghanistan. Relations soured again over Bush II's decision to invade Iraq based on intelligence our people knew was flimsy at best, and we called them out in the UN over the Patriot Act, warrantless wiretapping, and the treatment of Guantanamo Bay detainees. Bush II was furious over that, and we wound up pulling out of the Afghan coalition and not really dealing with America until after the 2008 elections.

We took a hit from the 2008 financial crisis, although things were much worse for the US and the EU than for us, and with the rise of Barack Obama we were hoping to see the US come to its senses, begin re-regulating its financial sector, and refocus its government on caring for its people; we saw some of that in the beginning, but Obama's been wading through quicksand from Day 1 and hasn't really been able to make all that much happen. To be honest, we're both very hopeful and very nervous about the 2012 elections; if Obama comes back with the legislature in the hands of his party then we can sit down and start talking about closing Guantanamo Bay, whittling away at the Patriot Act, and getting the economy back under control. Otherwise, we're basically going to have to strap in, watch the fireworks, and hope that Romney's administration doesn't do anything stupid. We feel pretty sorry for most of the American people.

[Grand Antarctica]

We were invaded in 1967 by The United States Government
In 2012 we pushed them from our borders and won the war, we achieved the right to maintain Antarctica

[Xekliv]

I don't think a worthless country will do jack shit to a nation who has conquered hundreds of solar systems.

[Aurordeca]

Probably, if they keep on this Democratic Socialist, soup kitchen welfare state kick they're on right now.

[Charlotte Ryberg]

No, but Minoa and the USA have ideological rivalries in many issues, including:
- The prevention and crackdown on non-state terrorism, with Minoa preferring one-to-one diplomacy instead of violence-for-violence;
- The scope of social welfare and social security, with Minoa having a majority of the welfare system centralised instead of only providing grants to, and leaving the control of social security with, local authorities;
- The system of healthcare and hospitals, with Minoa preferring universal access to healthcare and public provision of healthcare under the NHS;
- The criminal system, with Minoa now moving towards the "Norwegian system" for nearly all offences;
- Relations with extremely authoritarian countries, with Minoa not recognising North Korea at all, and insisting on single-handed military action against Assad in Syria on its own.

Overall, Minoa is a lot tougher as far as international relations is concerned. It may be that they are getting increasingly tired of stalemates.

[Cruciland]

Not for long. The socialist bastards are about to be conquered in a few years!

[Yuzhno Rossiya]

America sure loves to denounce us, but we know they'll never do anything. As far as we know we don't have nearly enough resources for them to try to colonize us.

[New Joshlands]

Negative. Despite a succession our nations are now on good terms. It would be crazy for any nation to invade New Joshlands. Every citizen is in the militia, knows how to operate weaponry and owns firearms. An occupier would literally be fighting our entire country.

[Zokoria]

The USA is no way a threat to us, since we are allies economicially and militarily. However, that might change under Barack Obama's presidency.

[Abatael]

Are they currently a threat? No.

Can they pose a serious threat? No. We doubt it.

[Nechian Empire]

If the USA exsisted in any form of this world I would have to say yes, seeing as the Nechian empire is composed of territory from the former united states. Eastern Texas to the Colorado River Oklahoma west of the Colorado's mouth. Kansas,Arkansas,Louisiana,and Mississippi

[Cargnolia]

Not really, as our country would be difficult for them to enter both terrain-wise and militarily. Our Air-defense systems are extensive and we are ringed by extremely rugged terrain. Indeed, the only acess would be through the fjords, which are easily defensible.

[Regnum Mortalium]

No, for we have nothing to fear from heathens.

[Saurisisia]

Of course not, we generally do not care about distant Human nations that are of little concern to us.

[Southern Babylonia]

The chances of the US being a threat to Southern Babylonia are fairly minimal. Despite the democratically-elected socialist government, our army is 3/4 the size of their own and the waterway leading up to our capital is defendable by aircraft carrier thanks to the efforts of Chancellor Hasbudral Khiaartgo in the late 90s. So, in short, we see no reason to be threatened by any force they may dispatch. However, if we shared a common border...

[New Mushroom Kingdom]

We would be too large for the USA to threaten, our military budget is larger than their entire economy.

this.

[Solanum-Blaatone]

Not until it discovers we exist.

[Goodclark]

Goodclark could very easily crush the US.
