Warfare 2017

The date is January 20, 2017. In the United States, the President takes the oath of office-in North Korea, machinations brew, Europe struggles against new waves of populism, the Far Eastern nations glare daggers at each other over the South China Sea, while Africa struggles in its path towards modernity. The stage is set.
Welcome to Warfare 2017, a modern-day roleplay of politics, economics, and, of course, conflict. Take up one of the world's nations, and enshrine yourself as a power. Negotiate, intimidate, and even war on your rivals, or seek to forge alliances for the betterment of your nation-the choice is yours.
All nations are as they are today-the United Nations, NATO, the WTO-all still function, but the 21st Century may have turned out a little bit differently. From 2000 to the present, you can make changes to your nation's recent history under your rule-was Merkel ever elected? Perhaps Hussein was overthrown before his time? The decisions are yours.
So take a look at the applications, forge a nation, and joint the Great Game of politics-and politics by another means.

NS Nation Name: Newne Carriebean7
RL Country Chosen: Iraq
Name of Leader: Saddam Hussein
Appearance of Leader

Biography of Leader Born in 1937 in British controlled Iraq, Hussein watched as Kin Fasil II of Iraq was overthrown in 1958 to create a military dictatorship known ironically as the Republic of Iraq. He first enjoyed their company and leadership until 1968, when he took power for himself, waiting for the military junta's top leaders were sent off on diplomatically fake missions and then quickly taking over the nation. Bribing anything that tried to disobey him and killing those that refused the bribes, he made Iraq form into a cult of personality for his 41 year and continuing reign. He has solidififed his political and military power, avoiding nuclear weapons and preparing his armies. in 1981, he went to war with Iran, costing him hundreds of soldiers and resulting in an inconclusive engagement. in 1990, he invaded Kuwait,resulting in the disastorous Gulf war, the resulting economic sanctions blasting his economy.
History of Nation (2000-2017) After the Persian Gulf War, Iraq's economy was in shambles. Hussein was allowed to stay on the throne of power, which angered many militia groups that wanted to break off from the empire after years of religious persecution and genocide, or at least see some one else on the throne of power. On September 10th,2001 Hussein authorized several million dollars to go towards several Ukrainian terrorists, who blew up a swedish airline over Lithuania. This caused the 95 day KJA-489 crisis, only solved by a quick thinking China who did not want Hussein to fall. in 2001, with the american invasion with response towards the September 11th attacks, Hussein fled the country in 2001 and would not return for 10 years, with a democratically corrupt regime in place of Hussein's one. This regime proves to be as incompetent as ever, with ISIS forming from the mess of the disbanded Iraqi army and power vacuum. Several Pro Hussein generals bring their commander out of hiding, culminating in the July 9th,2011 coup, Re installing the Baathist Iraq. Hussein has tried to paint himself as an ally of the Americans, consistently bombing ISIS or chilling with Erdogan in some Kurdish kebab.
