The Iron Curtain (AWRP/OOC/Sign Up) Open

Having trouble finding military numbers...

Populstat is a good start for the general population. As for the military, 200,000 wasn't far off the mark. The Army had 280,000 personnel in 1940 and they planned to have another 200,000 in 1944 so I wouldn't think it'd be too far off.

Doesn't have to be 100% accurate. Just make it reasonable.

Also the monarch was Juliana, all of Indonesia except for Dutch New Guinea was independent, and yes the Netherlands was US aligned

1. What year is it?
2. Oh ok
3. That's what I thought.

It's 1950, sorry if it wasn't clear enough, I might edit the opening blurb to make it less confusing.

[Kryskov]

Iraq gives you more leverage over both sides due to it's oil.

Alright then accepted, but be prepared for a possible British response.

Now we just wait for the radiation to give everyone in Jerusalem cancer.
Israel problem- fixed, in a horrifying way.

[Vehemia]

It's way too early for an independent Israeli nuke.

[Delsola]

When you listed what was going on, you forgot about South African ambition!

Just kidding, but within a decade this may be the case. Watch your backs, the Cape cometh...

D'aww, okay.

It's been like 6 months. Hold off for another few years. We can do a time skip if everyone agrees.

Aye,aye sir.

[Delsola]

I'd be up for that. I don't have many opportunities for expansion until the UK gets to the point at which it decolonizing Africa or the USA backs Namibian intergration due to their sway in the UN.
