Let's hope it stays that way - no doubt any number of semi-landlocked aggressor countries to your east want St. Petersburg back...

And that is why the Hansa has such a brilliant position- Russia moves, the Swedes and Poles will want them out and etc. We also have a independence garuntee from Germany.

So what happens if they all three decide to go all divide and conquer on you? All three of them are friendly with each other and not sure how far a independence guarantee from Prussia will go to ensure your independence.

The problem is the Hansa's only real value is as a trading port- St Petersburg and Tanilin. One side would be left out, and it's better just to leave the Hansa be. We are of no threat to them, and they have bigger fish to fry than our little country.

Seems like the popular thing to do at the moment in the role play is picking off the small fish in preparation of the cooking the big fish. I'm just joking seems like Europe is going to war sooner or later over a small conflict or a big conflict.

But no one wants to be the aggressor in that conflict. A three nation partition of the Hansa could easily break the status quo.

I am currently planning a space program. We have already built a launch pad in secret, and the first Martian base will be up in two days. Maybe a space race is something for the Hansa?

Which will be seen from Mars, and the Martian equivalent of H.G. Wells will wonder what it's all about.

How about you and the Swedes fight against Russia? At least half of their army is in the south, so it won't be too hard.

China is. But the OPs say that controlling all of China's population would make you too powerful, so you can only control the northern or southern portion.

@Blassland regarding this post: viewtopic.php?p=15427457#p15427457

If that deal ends up being made, I do intend on having the Vijayanagara Empire ask for permission before just marching across your soil. Figured I'd give you a heads up in the OOC thread. :)
