Somalia is the hardest nation to find military numbers about but I took everything I wrote down from different sources of information and played around a bit so my military wouldn't be 100% incompetent.

I assume China has the same Spratly Island military bases as IRL right?

[The Hindustani State]

Shit the Indian frigates were armed, assuming we’re pretty close, the Japanese missiles could be mistaken for being Indian ones by China…

Everything is same as IRL yes

[Hypron]

Shit the Indian frigates were armed, assuming we’re pretty close, the Japanese missiles could be mistaken for being Indian ones by China…

They would be able to detect them a few seconds after they were launched in that case.

[The Hindustani State]

Why would Afghanistan be allied to Pakistan? Assuming Imran Khan’s government continues the persecution of Pashtuns and supports the Taliban

[Karimi Arabia]

It's not. The thing is, Abdullah is influenced by Pakistan, so he would want there to be good relations.

I find it hilarious on how everybody is thinking that NORTH KOREA - has an embassies in their country like other countries.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_d ... orth_Korea

Well, a few do but it is a HANDFUL only.

Plus, in case some of our newcomers haven't read it - Pyongyang has been GASSED by chemical weapons already. So nobody is alive in there. Please, read the posts of those before you.

Now it's edited so that Afghanistan doesn't have an embassy in North Korea but instead there are folks from Afghanistan in the Pakistani embassy. Also, the Pakistani embassy survived the gassing thanks to special precautions installed in by Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto as part of his plan to ensure that Pakistani embassies would be safe in the events of war.
