Great War? What Great War? (OOC)

With the united states being such a massive economy and industrial powerhouse as well as a nation of consumers, if they theoretically started an economic boycott of Italy can we all agree it would have massive economic repercussions on the nation?

You'd have to speak to Italy, tis no business of the rest of the server.

arent you to OP? i mean you cant just have plays do whatever they want, they need to adhere to some reality

If I may add an oppinon here, most likely yes, but that wouldn't be that bad. The main thing European countries imported from the U.S before WW1 was Oil.

Where's the Congo going to get oil from? Wasn't the Congo's main export rubber at this point in time?

Two minutes to find out that it's literally from a tree in this case
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_rubber
"Congo rubber
Congo rubber, formerly a major source of rubber, came from vines in the genus Landolphia (L. kirkii, L. heudelotis, and L. owariensis)"

I was thinking synthetic rubber whoops. Either way, the Congo has a lot of oil. It has about 5 billion barrels of reserve right now.

Not really, we dont trade much with the United States.... Italy is kind of an isolationist nation at the moment... Our colonies and the homeland give us plenty of the resources I need with light trading within Europe...

It has a ton of diamonds too. But right now they’re doing tons of manual labor to produce rubber

Also, Congo Rebellion, the message wasnt from Pepino or anyone within the government for that matter.... its anonymous

The official policy of the italian government stands against the rebellion

For feck's sake, it's a well-known mustard gas was banned before WW1. Arch, stop derailing the RP, even unintentionally.

italy doesnt have the resources to be independent from the market, definitely not to fund a war machine. You need imports badly

Alt History my boy... alt history... but regardless, I dont trade with the United States... If anything most of my trade is with the Ottoman Empire, Austria, France, and more when it comes to funding my war machine... In fact, your nation is not much of a power yet

The end all be all of it is that an embargo by The United States would not slow my war machine

[Agarntrop]

Mkay, I need to go to sleep now. Control will pass to SET for now.

[Sapientia Et Bellum]

If you managed to somehow get an international embargo levied against me, then yeah... that would hurt

All powers without the oil production necessary to fund the war machine. Also yea alt history, but the point of convergence is 1912, and you did not establish in your app you somehow got lucky discovering oil in Libya. the reason it took till 1950s is because no one had a reason to look there.

Finally are you guys serious? about the United States not being a power? they have the second largest navy in the world and the largest economy, the largest industrial base and the most resources, plus 100 million people. just because they dont choose to go around conquering shit or have a large standing army doesnt mean they arent a power

"Invasion of Ethiopia will destabilize the region"
