Cold War RP III (Closed.)

[Minskiev]

Sarderia, you need to stop calling other lore unrealistic when yours is questioned. It’s a logical fallacy.

On your response to the question of your lore, I honestly don’t know too much about it, so no argument there.

You seems to point "logical fallacy" everywhere I made an argument, while I believe you have not discovered the meaning of that sentence yet. On Serbia-Macedonia's RP you called me the same, yet you did not respond when I pointed out your use of "logical fallacy" is false. Please do not spew out the word liberally when you doesn't know what it means.

I am pointing out at the fact the Co-OP scrutinized my app for supposedly being unrealistic, while their own app has several unrealistic factors as well, and I made sure that is not, in any way, related to the discussion regarding Venezuela ("On another unrelated note"). If I am avoiding the argument, or making a logical fallacy, I wouldn't bother to respond the Co-OP's argument that Venezuela "do not want to be an American colony", yet I responded, using historical facts as well.

They can be a puppet state. Take it or leave it.

It’s highly unlikely that Venezuela would actually like being in the US, both right now and 70 years ago.

[Minskiev]

I’m not spewing it out without knowing what it means. You constantly state the same old tu quoque fallacy. It means you also, because as defense, you bring up something about somebody often instead of refuting the claim. This time, you did refute the claim, but you didn’t last time, and you still brought up stuff about someone else.

A logical fallacy is a flaw in logic. For example, using a tu quoque fallacy:

Nicole identified that Hannah had committed a logical fallacy, but instead of addressing the substance of her claim, Hannah accused Nicole of committing a fallacy earlier on in the conversation.

This circumstance would be Monsone identified that Sarderia had illogical lore, but with addressing the lore, Sarderia accused Hypercapital of illogical lore earlier on in the discussion.

Puerto Rico was highly unlikely actually like being in the US as well come the Spanish-American war, yet they seek statehood until now

Regardless, I am not looking to bring Giovenith here as well, so a puppet state it is then. Please color with the American colors as well on the map.

Guys, if this goes to far, I’m banning you for the rest of the day. This doesn’t have to turn into argument.

I already addressed Monsone's question regarding my app, and I made sure to include "on another unrelated note..." meaning I do not dispute the validity of Monsone's app, just on the curious fact that why France still has Lebanon in this RP.

To be fair on the Puerto Ricans, that was 130 years ago.
Ok.

Alright, fine. Capitalist pig.

True, but Venezuela is also the first region to secede from Gran Colombia. Even at the first years of Gran Colombia, José Antonio Páez, the Commandant General of Venezuela, often clashed with Bolivar (the nation's leader whose residence is in Colombia most of the time). Bolivar himself prepared to march to Venezuela to supress the separatists in 1826. Suffice to say, "nationalist" identities doesn't matter too much now - Venezuela in this RP has the same degree of autonomy Puerto Rico had in our world this time, with Venezuelan citizens being US citizens.

Also, if we want to talk about realism, France shouldn't have owned Lebanon on 1950, because the French bombing of Damascus backfired into a British-founded retaliation by Syrians, and thus ousting any remnant of French presence in the Middle East. Lebanon also was a founding UN member state, so the League of Nations member status was officially terminated.

The reason having those lands is unrealistic is because in 1892, the US Navy did not have the power projection capabilities you would need. The Squadron of Evolution had 9 ships at the time, and by 1892, they where modern, but not great. Yes in the 1890s the USA was strong, but was lagging behind the other Great Powers. You said simply shelling a city did the job, but you would need to land troops, and in 1892, the US Army was far from modern (black powder trapdoor rifles where still standard issue for the US Army while smokeless powder became the global standard along with the bolt action rifle). And saying that nationalist identities don't mater is pretty BS since a nationalist identity is the basis of a modern state. ALL NATIONS HAVE A NATIONALIST IDENTIDY BECAUSE THAT IS HOW THEY FORM THE BASIS FOR AN US VS THEM MENTALITY WHICH IS A BUILDING BLOCK OF A NATIONSTATE. WITHOUT A NATIONALIST IDENTIDY, YOU DON'T HAVE A NATION.

As for Lebanon. There was a unilateral declaration of independence in 1941. But IRL the French weren't forced to recognize it until 1943, and French troops didn't leave IRL until 1946. In this scenarion, Lebanon did declare unilateral independence, but the Allies refused to recognize it, and Lebanon just became a part of France again albeit with a bit more autonomy and more rights. But still remaining French.

And before you start using events like the Bombing of Damascus, please learn what they even where about because your recounting of the events is completely off. The bombing occured between 1925 and 1926. Twenty years before the end of WW2, and the bombing only targeted Syria, which I no longer control. The bombing was to aid in crushing a rebelion in Syria. Not Lebanon. And that rebelion ended in a French victory and IRL France would keep those lands until 1945 and left them by free will and not by the UK supporting rebels because in 1945 the UK had bigger issues to deal with.

You're lucky this isn't an OOC thread or ... wait, it is. *** Warned for flaming. ***

So are we waiting for others to join or has the RP already started.

So are we waiting for others to join or has the RP already started.

We're just waiting for Mathuvan to post the IC thread.

And while I've been waiting.

I assume that Korea didn’t split up?
Monsone is this a rule violation?

Not really. Korea should have remained united, and there is only a Korean people (North and South Korea are just nationalities). Plus it is a pretty minor change that might delete the Korean war, but gives the USSR a western aligned nation on it's border, which is likely enough to start something similar to the Korean war. Or the solution is the Communist Party of Vanguard is controlled by the USSR and the Korean Peoples army is still a thing. I also thing joining NATO is a no, since the USA would create SEATO for Asia.

Either/or would work, since nato is North Atlantic Treaty Organization, though if all of Eurasia (pro-US or anti-Soviets) were in a faction, it'd probably be called the WTO (Worldwide Treaty Organization) or something.

I don't see a point in splitting-up NATO into sectors, but I guess it'd probably be because every region is different and it'd help the US to focus on different zones.

[Fennoscandia Union]

I think the US should create the WTO as soon as they get the opportunity. Like if the Soviets expand their sphere of influence in Asia, Latin America, or Africa. I think the US has adjusted their history to get large parts of the Caribbean and South America, just so they can limit the Soviets in expanding their sphere of influence in Latin America, and the prevent Latin American communist states, especially one in Cuba.

But the biggest threat (and the reason NATO was created) was because the USSR has most of it's military facing Rurope and not Asia. And if I'm being honest, be biggest communist threat in 1950 to most countries is their local communist parties.

It prevents irl Venezuela, Cuba and ofcourse Nicaragua and Mexico leaning red, but also, irl USA has/had eyes on those lands, so...

I don't think an American Empire would be farfetched, or the WTO, though historically I do not understand why a WTO wasn't made irl (since Japan has historical beef w/ Russia and all)

though w/ irl current politics w/ China and all, I could see the WTO forming (since everyone's currently mad @ china rn)

[Fennoscandia Union]

If China is nationalist and not communist, I don't see a reason to create the WTO instead of NATO, but I do believe if China is communist, that the Soviet Union and China will attempt to expand their sphere of influence in Asia, especially South Asia and East Asia, and the WTO will be helpful in protecting Asia better than was done in our timeline.

[Wasi State]

Btw will we have a map for this RP like the last one?

[Fennoscandia Union]

An American Empire isn't too farfetched, but I'm trying to argue instead of America becoming OP in the Americas, they could create a more powerful WTO, and protect the Americas.

[Minskiev]

“Communist” China, that is.

Also RIP for the warn even though I’m the Soviet Union...

Eh. Doesn’t make too much of a difference for me, I don’t plan on going to political threads actively. Those things are ban death traps.
