Hungry citizens ask leaders to seek new territories

[Stan Rogers]

Oh Doom...you make me giggle. You don't suppose your continuous and unrelenting attacks against bigtea despite the King of Spain having an agreement with him and a cessation of all hostilities ?
Numerous requests for you to stop went unheeded. You then crow how you drove Bigtea from the game.
Congratulations...you get a gold star. Feel better now ?
In order to command respect, you must be willing to show respect.

When have you given it?

You wanna talk respect?

Also, I've told the reason I fought Bigtea, outlasting him was the better strategy, which worked better. It's not so much the fight I won, it's the war. I harassed him till he gave up. I also removed his national support. So it's the war I fought behind the shadows that I won.

Tolerance will always meet resistance. If the Spaniards refuse to see the times are changing, and allow the personnel among their own, and those outside their ranks only the minimal grant of tolerance, we will continue to fight for our countries, acceptance must go both ways.

Manpower, ships, nor gold will stop the onslaught of the right to mutual respect and acknowledgement of a new power.

Edited that post mack... made a fatal typo in it...

Spain is and remains the number 2 nation through council choice, not lack of abilities.

you may want to rethink your idea of number 2. what are you basing this off? not fame, you're 3 there. not influence, you're 5 there. so what are you number 2 in?

Idk if it's against the rules or not to post treasury amounts... I know that most nation's have spies... but Spain does have a treasury exceeding 2 billion last I looked at it...

Aye, not that it matters, but to me, GC is boss. Those who have the most, wins unless its squandered foolishly.
I also base that on the most popular national whipping posts when a competing nationals is ranking up although that may not be a reliable indicator.

No, on the contrary, you are proof that pay-to-win does not mean game dominance unless you are a pay-to-win player also. You must be exceptionally good to win against someone who invested so heavy into the game.

I would be most interested in hearing how you were able to do this but, I think the topic has been derailed for long enough so if you would like to start a new thread on your accomplishments and victories, please feel free but let this one continue on the topic please.
