Claims: Kuwait
Capital City: Al Jahrah

Government Form: Parliamentary Monarchy
Ideology: Direct democratic unitary state
Foreign Policy: The country retains its tradition, but it is very welcome to the western powers of U.S., France, U.K., etc
Domestic Policy: It is democratic, and believes that a country is judged by how it treats its citizens.
Civil Freedoms /10: 9
Political Freedoms /10: 9
Economic Freedoms /10: 10

Military Size: 14,200
Military Description: Most rifles and tanks used by Kuwait are dated 1979 - 1986. The only fighter jets available are 23 reverse-engineered U.S. F/A-18 Hornets.
Strengths and Weaknesses: Guerrilla tactics, the military is generally people of the desert.
Law Enforcement: Police officers require warrants, and all persecution goes with trial. The government can supply a defender with a lawyer if they cannot pay for one themselves.
Intelligence agencies: State Security Intelligence, Domestic Undercover Police, Military Intelligence

Description of Your Nation's Economy: Free markets, many products and services are unregulated.
Description of Your Nation's Government: The Emir can down-vote a proposal but can be vetoed by the legislature.History of your Nation: Kuwait was an economic, trading nation from the 1600s to the early 1900s. British imposed blockades on Kuwait due to their support of the Ottomans heavily damaged Kuwait's economy, and lack of demand of pearls in the Great Depression deepened the wound of economic downfall. However, the economy bounded back in the early 30s after Kuwait turned out to be oil-rich. Oil exports filled the rims of Kuwait's international market in comparison to western nations like the United Kingdom and France.

Kuwait left the British protectorate in 1937, and so did the end of an Arabian blockade. The economy recoiled quickly from 1938 to 1940, and Kuwait became the largest exporter of oil in the Persian Gulf. The economy slowly turned down in the late 70s and early 80s from a decrease in oil prices. In 1990, oil production in Kuwait peaked, and so did one-way tensions with Iraq to the north. However, it never sparked into full-scale war, as the country was unprepared for a war anyways. An American shipment of F/A-18 multi-role fighter jets in 1991 solidified the country's naval aircraft presence, and so the safety of the country's waters. It must now prepare for an inevitable Farsi-Iraqi conflict, and in all likelihood will side with Iran once again.
Population of entire nation: 1.79 million

My plans? Stay neutral. Unless Iraq or Iran intends to incorporate me into their plans, I don't want anything to do with it.

Okay. Can you confirm your ideology? How can you be a democracy when the Emir can veto anything? Is this power completely restrained by convention?

[Rephesus]

^be Communist, our cookies are great.

I was actually thinking being Nationalist Greece. It could be interesting to have a mini cold war in the Balkans with Bulgaria. Plus the Greek Nationalist flag looks really cool.

But if I join as Korea communism could be fun...

We could definitely use a Greece. Especially considering everything around it.

How ironic, I post about Thailand and hours later RL Thailand declares Martial Law to discourage rebels.

Well I guess I will reserve Greece

I know Bulgaria owns Thrace but I would like to clarify weather Turkey owns part of Northern Greece since it is not on the map

Yeah, about that... We need to RP that out, the Thai military is going to fight.

[Imperial Baekchae]

Serbia, Korea and varioud other nations have gone inactive. Perhaps we csn boot them?

Also, Ugandvitz. Are you officially Russia now? If so, I would like to hold talks.

[Waztaskio]

I don't know if you can classify Australasia as Non-Aligned, as we are subjected to the British.

[Ugandavitz]

Yeah, I am. Tg me. I'm assuming it's about the ships.

Yeah, about that... We need to RP that out, the Thai military is going to fight.

We'll it was a military coup

In the 2 months between the Intervention and Referrendum we'd be fighting rebels and military pockets, does anyone want to RP the resistance?

I highly doubt within two months you could occupy an entire nation, be able to put down massive amounts of rebel resistance, and then get a referendum done....

[Ptolemais]

I'm afraid you won't get off so easily, we need to RP the resistance from the Thai military to Indian intervention. As well, China has expressed interest in possibly intervening on behalf of Thailand...

Get an ORBAT up for the initial intervention (60,000 was it?) and i'll try and respond as soon as possible with the Thai response. I admit I totally missed your initial intervention post, but if we just use the war thread, depending on the outcome, you may only have to amend one post

[Ugandavitz]

Does anyone want any tractors, or artillery or Crimea

[Rephesus]

Does anyone want any tractors, or artillery or Crimea

I'll take Crimea if I can put Silos in it

(Just kidding don't invade poor innocent India)

Going to have to put me infront of one first

[Kryskov]

@new Russia: the Baltic Union, in your sphere, is breaking the Leningrad Treaty and is securing aid and support from the west.

[Rephesus]

Also China is democratic, as is Korea, Yugoslavia is Communist but they hate you anyway

[Ugandavitz]

Got it^. I was still in the RP before I started as Russia yesterday. I'm not too concerned, lol

China is "democratic." Electioms just sometimes have 150% voter turn out.
