| Message | WE'RE A pretty small island nation that occupies a very polarizing position in Terra. Not all nations enjoy our freedoms and liberties, and the capitalists and monarchies least of all. WHILE WE HAVE CLOSE ALLIES Indrala, Ikradon, Kalopia, Sekowo, Dolgava, Jakania WE HAVE ENEMIES AS WELL And we can't cripple ourselves with these bashful and timid laws. YOU THINK WE'LL GET OFF NUKES After another nation "uses them first?" Look at the size of Al'Badara, and consider we're ranked 43rd in the world in terms of economic strength. We need that threat to keep the hounds at bay, and we certainly would never vaporize them first (we haven't the missile numbers to do so). |
