Actually, a lot of Americans don't like the same things about America. Just
one question: If America isn't "Worldcop", who will be? If we are to avoid
more world wars someone must. Granted, a neutral union would be wonderful,
but there is none, not even the United Nations. The problem most Americans
have with communism (as practiced) is the way it often suppresses the right
of people to believe and say what they want. In theory, sharing our
resources looks good, but it does not work. Even in a socialist nation such
as Sweden, where the suicide rate is extremely high (so I have heard many
places, if I'm wrong, forgive me)--thus indicating a great deal of
dissatisfaction with life.

Certainly Avanil shouldn't try to play worldcop, but someone must balance
Boruine. And, ultimately, the Gorgon is always a threat. Along these
lines, has anyone experimented with any sort of democracy or republic in
Birthright? I have wondered how such a system might work. Unfortunately,
with so many threats, I don't think such a nation would survive.
