This is just the National Anthem of Spain, with some very small changes. I couldn't find a national anthem that would fit better or that I could change easier. Should this be the new National anthem of Midasia?

-cries- Its... Magnifico! Such a wonderful fit!

Right, I'm going to be on a flight for 9 hours. Talk to you all later :)

I can certainly predict the future with increasing degrees of accuracy when I have distinguished reference points like the F-35, PAK-FA, J-31 and J-20. Except, of course, you don't even get why those reference points are relevant clearly if you "don't know why you felt compelled to write all that".

The argument of "you can't know that" is all well and good when someone predicts a major change to physics. It's even all well and good when someone says "FTL might be possible because of a law we've yet to discover" because science is always changing. Unfortunately, this isn't a matter of unknowns, it's a matter of known variables influencing an ultimate product. We can know that it takes a large amount of MIC base to produce a fifth gen engine. We know this because two large countries that have been increasing said base steadily still can't do it yet despite trying for years (Since 1995, for Russia). We can know that it takes a large industrial base to seal aircraft skins without the micro-fissures that would make radar spotting easier. We can know that it's incredibly hard to hammer out the programming of an F-35 alike because there are still conflicts within the F-35 despite billions having been spent and years under it's belt. So Britain's ridiculous claims are, indeed, ridiculous when taken together.

The data is there if you'd only care to read rather than hiding behind slim and decreasing chances that Britain will somehow show that billions in defense spending actually mean nothing and that they can totally accomplish their plan in less time with less cost than the closest analogue. Any reading that could be done by you would show the trend of these planes to be exorbitantly expensive. Here's some reading if you want to see the results of actually spending significant amounts of funding on your MIC's program. This is the same set of facts that made the Eurofighter need to be the Eurofighter, are you really so certain Britain is in such a better place economically that they can afford to stake out on a F-35-esque fighter? You're wrong if you are.

Funny thing is i don’t doubt you’re right, I’m just saying you speak so pretentiously and arrogantly on the subject and you speak with absolute infallible confidence in your believes and you need to be more aware that people are allowed to disagree with you and have valid points.

I would gladly have this conversation elsewhere, for everyone else - I’ve enjoyed it at least, but since Kal doesn’t come on Discord the rmb is the place to be, and a juicy bit of rmb drama is the blood life of this region

If you ever get a valid point, I'll give it to you that you've a valid point. For as long as you say "You can't know that" when you totally can predict it with multiple points of reference, I'll treat your points as what they are, unsupported beliefs in what Britain can do. To say "Kal is unduly certain" here is to say that I should ignore historical precedent completely when there is a clear trend. If you've a valid point here, I'd hear it, but all I've seen is arguments of joint ignorance -unfounded since I've been supplying proof for my points- and arguments towards the uncertainty of the future.

If that's all there is for your arguments, I don't really care to continue it. Like you've said, I've already convinced you of the point.

That's not a good enough reason to vote against me. By that logic, anyone you don't like could soil the government just by being in it. At least I have plenty of experience to know how to hold down the fort. I'm not campaigning to be Supreme Leader. Someone has to be Vice Chancellor, and I'd rather the matter be decided now than in another two weeks.

I crated a mercenary group loosely attached to the allies of the CFN. I used my standing in the CFN and my previous title as one of the last presidents of the NGA to gather allies and I began raiding a lot of regions. There were a bunch of legal cases too but corruption was in my favor like usual and I got off. This happened... like 4 times under a couple other charges.

I used my power and the power of those around me to basically recruit two volunteer soldiers from most of the CFN allies. It was a ton of fun.

I tried a poll that I'm really interested in, I understand the answer categories are a bit convoluted but it's a tad tricky to fit normative responses into a well-defined and categorical Q&A. Last poll, the residents of the Confederacy were given a school house by our sorting hat, and Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw overwhelmingly won, with Slytherin coming a close second!
