Andromedos said:I doubt it. The Japanese might expand into east Siberia as much as they want, but if they move too much south or east, they would have both the Germans and British on their throats, I expect. The role of the american Nations in such a situation would surely be interesting.

Tetsu said:Yeah, Japan's been lying quiet for far too long, building up their empire over the last half century. It started when they snatched up the Hawaiin Islands in the '30s before handing them over to the British... now that they've finally silenced the Chinese troublemakers in their empire, something has to happen. I'm afraid they'll start trouble on the West Coast in the next couple years...
Tetsu said:Regardless, I just hope that at least a semblance of order can be established on this continent... warlords have controlled the Great Plains for far too long. I'm obviously against trying to reestablish the Union; all it's parts were simply to different to focus as one nation, that's why it didn't work. But we need to work together to prevent more European imperialism in North America.
Landshark said:The Japanese may claim to have contained the Chinese nationalists but no matter how many they kill the Chinese still outnumber the Japanese by eight or nine to one.

Andromedos said:OOC: Many of these DB timelines don't quite add up. One said China oppupies Byzantium, another said Japan defeated China...maybe somebody could try and establish a timeline out of this topic.

((Also some things like Maryland being able to support a navy cause probability problems. MD would have to cover a larger area to have the wealth and population to manage that))
Landshark, are you from British Columbia? If you ever are in Seattle, capital of the beatiful Pacifica, give me a call. It will be an hounor to buy a fellow veteran of Ross lake a good german beer.Landshark said:(At the moment we're got Canada, Texas, California, Virginia, New England, New York, Louisiana, Maryland, Pacifica (?) and maybe Cuba at least.)
