About Ethiopia, the area sold to the Saudis was NOT a actual part of Ethiopia, it was sold to them by the British and besides they would rather get rid of it then deal with a violent insurgency. The Saudis have made them a generous offer for what is no more than a large expanse of desert.


Well, if Saudi Arabia’s economy is anything like it is today, oil exports should account for 90-95% of your export earnings. Before the discovery of oil, most of Saudi Arabia’s income came from pilgrimages to Mecca. Also I never mentioned Saudi’s involvement in Kuwait as a pretext for the embargo; it’s from actions you've taken against Israel and your use of chemical weapons. I also have vast influence in the region of which your offering to purchase, after all they are my protectorates, colonies and puppet states. i can veto any decision made by the local government.

I think once the Kuwait situation is resolved we should time skip 5 to 10 years.

Okay, I see. I was confused by the wording. Since the Brits agree then that's fine.

5-10 years?

1957, I think. Sputnik.

Either way, I'm going to post intermedians.

early 1952: Jerusalem tests it's first self-made atomic weapon, becoming an official nuclear state
late 1952: Jerusalem, Jordan and Egypt get together to form the Jerusalem Pact
1956: Suez Canal nationalized by Egypt, Jerusalem backs Egypt

If we skip, is it possible for me to say I almost got all of East Germany and will do the last assault on Berlin?

I think we have an East German player but he's never posted, I'll TG him. The Soviets would also attempt to keep control of East Germany.

2 years is good. I can open with Operation: Firework.

Jerusalem would be the third nuclear state.

America, is it cool if Operation: Firework is detonated at the old atomic testing site?

1. United States (1945)
2. Soviet Union (1949)
3. Jerusalem (Jan 1952)
4. United Kingdom (Oct 1952)
5. France (1960)
6. China (1964)

I'd rather not proliferate nuclear weapons unnecessarily. Britain fills the role of an independent deterrent in Europe.
