“Italy had the tricolor first not mexico”

What kinda ugly ass flag is that

Accepted. Although things to be aware of: Severino's actions to stay within the EU have riled up his base supporters and have threatened to splinter Italy's eurosceptics as of the last IEC post, so that's something you'll have to deal with. It has also likely emboldened Italy's europhiles - but other than that this all checks out unless anyone else has comments.

Edit: One note, if you're going to be Italy, you'll have to be on the 2024 Discord in order to keep up with the EU.

He doesn't plan on joining the European Federation.

Then what does he mean by “replacing Germany and bringing federalism towards Europe”?

[Atrilan]

He doesn't plan on joining the European Federation.

Then what does he mean by “replacing Germany and bringing federalism towards Europe”?

Helping to spearhead European projects but not actively joining? Not like the PiS would anyways.

Major Domestic Issues -The Declining birth rate and rapidly aging population, slow economic growth, a very large nation Debt compared to GDP, a high suicide rate
Major Foreign Issues -The various territoral disputes japan is involved, North Korea and the rise of China, the Sarawak Crisis

History [MUST LINE UP WITH HISTORY IN "STATUS" SECTION, NOT SET IN STONE AND MUST BE APPROVED BY OPs, WRITE IT LIKE IT'S GOING IN THE "STATUS" SECTION -Japan, one of the largest economies in the world and a Asian power in it's own right is on a precipice. Japan had emerged from a backwater feudal state into an empire that was comparable to the great empires of Europe, with a policy of rapid and radical expansion during the 20th century. WW2 however broke the Japanese Empire and limited it's military to a more defensive outlook and destroyed it's economy, with the Aid of the US however the Japanese economy rapidly recovered from the war and in what many call the Post war miracle became one of the most prosperous economies in the world. There where a few road bumps but by the 1980s many where believing that japan would one day surpass the United States and become the largest economy in the world, but by the 1990's Japan's economy had stagnated, the assest price bubble had popped and had left Japan stagnating for over 20 years with recovery only beginning in 2010

Now Japan is faced with a large variety of challenges, the National debt has ballooned to extraordinary level's which many fear is unmanageable at this point, the birth rate has declined significantly and the population is rapidly aging to the point where it could be a very large burden on various pensions in the future and the economy is still growing at a very slow rate and is considered still extremely fragile.Even without the issues domestically Japan faces a multitude of threat's outside it's border's, North Korea somewhat defanged recently is still considered a large threat to the Japanese homeland, along with china and Russia with whom Japan has border disputes with along with the Sarawak crisis which theaten's the stability of the whole region. The Ldp in 2026 has recently selected Oyakawa Toju as the successor to the realtively unpopular Takeshi Iwaya with hopes that the relative new face in Japanese politics would help shore up the LDP's approval ratings. Will Mr Oyakawa managed these issues correctly and once again make Japan a formidable power in Asia or will his tenure see a disaster for the Japanese people is a question only time can tell.
