To be fair, it's edgy to tell the truth about developing nations and their current sucktastery, instead of only focusing on their bright future. NS loves edgy.

You forgot "propose re-colonization as a solution to the issue".
You can't make a NSG thread about a developing nations and not see someone saying that.

You see, most developing nations immediateky reverted to their pre-colonial state after the British/French/Portugeuse left. Therefore the same socio-economic conditions that allowed colonization- no guns, political fragmentation, etc- are still in place in a vicious cycle, and therefore a new wave of imperialism will only end in triumph and glory for those white men who take up their burden anew.

I think that's the underlying logic, yeah.

Nat: Night's always in some bizarre state somewhere between "intoxicated enough to kill a hair metal lead singer" and "annoying Mormon missionary sober".
Swith: It's because you're so awesome. God himself refreshes the screen before he types just to see if Nightkill has written anything while he was off somewhere else.

This is closed.
And nothing like what you describe.

I'll send over a few younger sons once the personal union between the House of Const and the House of Agri is established. They can use some combat experience to help establish the Holy Britalian Empire in the chaotic aftermath of Arjun beginning his conquests of desolation.

OK, so you know Harry Potter? Forget it, because it's nothing like that.
Right. So there's this school. It's only sort of a school, though, because the last time anyone went to class after the first day was in 1926, and they got lost on the way to the bathrooms.
It's a magic school, in England, near London. There's a lot of magic, but there isn't a lot of school. It's run by Aleister Crowley (but not that one), who is the greatest hedonist to have ever lived, while also the most powerful wizard in the world. Surprisingly, this works. The staff is made up of psychopaths. Entirely. The one sanest one was a drunk half-orc who abandoned his son. Then you have the students, who are stuck-up, snotty, bratty, hormonal, and completely fucking stupid.
Everyone hates everyone, except when someone else hurts one of them, at which point the entire school beats that someone to death.
There are angels, and there are demons. They live, collectively, in Heaven - a despotic theocracy, Hell - a wasteland of the bizarre and bloodthirsty warlords who make Genghis Khan look like an amateur, and Heavensgate - a colony of Heaven's in Hell, which is the most progressive out of the three in that not everyone's life is shit (usually). They all hate each other, and humanity, and it's Elfen High's job to keep everything peaceful. Elfen High does this by being drunk (everyone, all the time), late, and inexplicably naked.
Also, there are these abominations from before time called the Fae, who are trying to kill everyone, everywhere. And then's there another abomination who is trying to kill everyone, everywhere, but even more so, called Leviathan. And then Satan and God are in there somewhere, but no one really knows how. Nor does anyone care, because they're all crippled emotionally and are shitfaced.
Also, there are dick jokes. Mainly dick jokes.

Which, mind, is also going to make the ending of this arc hell because of how many things we need to wrap up.
We've accidentally crafted a Tolkien-esque world, complete and resplendent in its complexity and comprehensiveness, all built around dick jokes and lesbians.
