Bicultural Europe is Doomed

@allweneedislove:

i read the title and clicked on the thread.

i assumed it was going to read as the following.

Europe and Asia connected as they have been for the past 20,000,000 years as one land mass.

but i guess your topic is slightly more interesting.

I did the same thing and asked myself there are zero railways going from one part of this giant landmass to the other? What about the trans-siberian… oh they are talking about Turkey, nevermind.

I am not sure Napoleon was ever really himself after the Russian campaign. What he expected after his victory at Borodino and what really turned out was very different. Expecting the Russians to surrender only having them chase him all the way back to France may have put some doubt in his mind. Maybe that doubt is what affected his decisions at a place like Waterloo. I know in sports that if you loose your confidence it can be hard to get back. I imagine the same could be said about war generals. Just a thought. Enjoyed the post.

Prem #1 What if the debt held by B2 was in the form of stocks of A1.  A1 could depreciate their stock in exchange for benefits that would derive from the borrowed money from B2.  You in fact get all the benefits from the loan and screw the lender.

Prem #2 B2 never required use of your patents called ControlledShippingLanes.  Now B2 requires use of this patent which A1 has spent a great deal of money investing in ‘lawyers’ and ‘updated patent modifications’ in order to defend the ControlledShippingLanes patent that most western companies require use of. Now that B2 now requires a ‘license’ to use the ControlledShippingLanes patent for various things, A1 now finds itself in a great position.

It does make for an interesting movie premise doesn’t it?

@U-505:

Just so you know, Commander. DAAK is using Frood now.

I WIN!!!

The evil, biased dicey is out, that sexist piece of code!

Hmm, not sure I remember posting that. Although it is quite possible given my memory. :wink:

it’s a question of standpoint… and as america is so much right-wing, i can understand you see the world as leftish

I think I answered this is a different section of forum before…

I find, on average, that pacific is longer than europe. Why? Well if japan is winning its a 6 or 7 turn game. But if Japan is losing the game can last 10 turns. Europe mostly is a 7 turn game no matter who wins.
