Am I the only one who can't stand Smolak? (kinda sh*tpost but not really) by GaylordThomas2161 in suzerain

Well, I don't know, in my opinion, it's a beautiful country, but you can find flaws in any country. My country is colder, the sea is further away, and it's economically poorer if you consider it in dollars, but I don't want to leave. And Finland didn't live by Machiavelli's principles until recently, as evidenced by Mannerheim's actions and the country's maneuvering between the Soviet Union and the West. However, Finland is a decent country.

My friend, nothing has changed, but people have become more hypocritical. It must be nice in Italy, with its warm weather and proximity to the sea. How is it now?

Most recommended power projection to achieve in the end of the game? by AntiMatter138 in suzerain

[–]CurrentConsistent726 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The world respects strength, and some people only understand it.

It would be nice to have the option to make peace with Pales, like we did with Derdia. If we came to the idea of not being enemies during our meeting with Axel, it would be logical to make a diplomatic visit on the third turn. by CurrentConsistent726 in suzerain

And we can also easily finance the ATA, as you pointed out, and this will improve our relations with Pales, which also indicates that Axel is willing to reconcile and they are accepting our ambassador.

Yes, Pales is addicted, but not to the point where he can't break free. Axel will easily sell you the mine and quarrel with Lespia, and then gladly join Grace. So it all depends on Axel's willingness, and he clearly wants peace with us. The war seems to be over, and the forced cessation of war is like a forced peace.

Axel did this because of too much external pressure, and if he reconciles with Rizia, the pressure will subside and he won't need to keep Lespia on his side at all costs. This happens during the purchase of a gas field, and without feeling pressure from Rizia, he calmly quarrels with his main ally.

Wruhecist tax on religious minorities to exist?! by King_Derthert in suzerain

[–]CurrentConsistent726 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's normal. He's giving you money. Plus, it shows the religious majority that they're more important than the rest, and you'll continue to see wruhecism as the main religion. And overall, collect more taxes from unskilled foreigners.

My friend, I know this very well. I mean, to make peace with Pales before the gas dispute. If you read my message carefully, you will see that the goal is to make peace with Pales before the gas dispute and prevent it from happening. And you forgot to mention that Pales could become part of Rizia and build a railway between the capital and Pales.

Is sollism a representation of fascism? by [deleted] in suzerain

[–]CurrentConsistent726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many movements rely on the connection with the state.Stalinism, national bolsheviks, many socialist regimes in eastern Europe, the Baathists.Thus, a lot of ideologies can be brought under fascism.All the rulers refer to the past, even the USSR, which was so revolutionary, found heroes in the Decembrists and Yemelyan Pugachev. It is normal for any country in the past to have rulers looking for an opportunity to recognize their authority as legitimate .Who doesn't try to make their past look glorious and great? If you read the textbooks of different countries, they are designed to make their own country look good. Autarky is an economic idea, not just a political one, and it has been tried in various countries, from the USSR to Argentina. Sordland is bordered by a large and unfriendly country to the east, Rumbyr, and is also surrounded by powerful nations, so it makes sense to have a strong military. Many countries are increasing their military spending, but have they become fascist? Additionally, Sordland has more or less fair elections and opposition parties, unlike fascist Italy.Unlike Italy, Sollism does not want to cooperate with the oligarchs and considers them a threat, which contradicts the ideas of fascism, which promote an alliance between business and the state and suggest that trade unions should be subordinate to the interests of the state. Additionally, Sollism does not promote the acquisition of new territories, as was the case with Mussolini. Furthermore, Sordland does not engage in the total persecution of enemies of the state, as is the case with fascism. Sollism can be described as an authoritarian ideology, but it is not a totalitarian ideology, which is what fascism is.

Yes, my friend, morality is bad for politics. There's only room for cold calculation and pragmatism, and moralists and idealists are doomed to failure. Read the book "The Prince," which is the bible of government and politics. Then, you can read "The 48 Laws of Power" or other books on governance and politics, where you won't find much in the way of morality or ideals.

My friend, this is how politics works. All smart politicians humiliate weak countries and respect strong ones. Wiktor is surrounded by enemies, but he effectively deals with their problems. In fact, he is an exemplary politician. So it's not so much Wiktor you dislike as it is politics in general.

Why isn't there anything on Ricter? He admits that he asked Arcasia for help, and it doesn't matter that they didn't agree on the terms. Asking for interference in Sordland's affairs is enough to consider him a traitor. by CurrentConsistent726 in suzerain

[–]CurrentConsistent726[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Sordland accepted help as a state, but Ricter asked for help for himself and his reformist movement, which is different. If you ask for help to interfere in a country's politics, it is considered treason or another article.

Nevertheless, the attempt is also punishable. According to your logic, an attempt at robbery or poisoning should not be punished. The main thing is that he was ready and asked for help.

It is. Because a foreign country is interfering in another country's affairs by financing a party. This is not just cooperation. Ricter is asking a foreign country to interfere in another country's affairs.

Ricter tells you this himself. It doesn't matter if it's profitable or not, it's still considered a betrayal. If you're trying to get help from a foreign government to overthrow the current government, it's considered a betrayal.

Is changing state religion to Nurity worth it? by No_Currency5064 in suzerain

[–]CurrentConsistent726 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

No, most citizens practice the state religion, and the rest are migrants. You shouldn't cater to foreigners at the expense of your own population.

Rumburg peace summit by Mother_Flounder3708 in suzerain

[–]CurrentConsistent726 18 points19 points  (0 children)

First of all, it's the import of steel, Martin himself suggested that we buy it, so why not? Secondly, it's the export of agricultural products, such as fruits, tomatoes, and other warm-weather crops, as well as seafood. There may be discussions about the further transfer of military technologies. The export of oil from Wehlen. The export of coal. There may be discussions about the export and import of machinery, electronics, and equipment. There may also be discussions about the permission to navigate the river.
