Bread is too varying, how about .5 litre soda? 12kr.

2.28 Dollars

1.45 Pounds

 

I can get a 2 litre bottle of 'soda'(Coke or Lemonade or whatever) for around 9 pence, at a push 1 pound if you want the best quality stuff...the sort of stuff that blows your nose for you.

 

Even a can of Pop would only cost 79 pence, and thats 770mililiteres

about 20 pence at a small shop nearby;

I'm not talking cheap versions but real, brand sodas, like Coka Cola and Pepsi.

Lets simplify.

Thus Scandinavia is overpriced and has a terrible economy.

 

(Bottle of Pepsi = 79 pence for 770 ml)

Overpriced - Arguable.

Terrible - Nope.

 

Here's a picture showing avarage wages:

 

Still think it's overpriced?

>Average wages of UK according to your picture: 40-45k.

 

Seems legit, guys!

It's still in Krones I think.

 

As far as I know, the average wage here is like £18,000. Which, given that one Krone is .2 dollars, and 1.6~ dollars is £1, is quite a bit more than Scandinavia.

 

Mather, we understand that you're extremely patriotic and love Norway, but I'm pretty sure stuff is more expensive there.

Because I'm fifteen and there's a girl I love more. :razz:

 

Stuff's expensive yes, but we earn enough so that it doesn't seem like it.

 

 

Anyways: Compressed explosives are now done, my missiles may now give increased detonation force.

SAAB starts developement of smaller missiles, hopefully they'll be able to make them just about the size of two AA batteries. (ETA: 3 years?)

As for exchange rates and stuff, I've been keeping track of everything in USD, using Doom's system of 1% of GDP. So basically I keep track of GDP in dollars, and my surplus in dollars, so I don't have to worry about currency fluctuations and the like, because it's just a really big pain. Don't you think that would be easier?

 

Japan, the most multi cultural country in the world...That is...wierd.

Only because you've annexed so many different countries with different cultures.

And Japan managed to somehow pass USA. :P

Well you're going ahead with the Anglo-Saxon pride thing. :)

Australia has it's new military tech. The armour is being issued to certain squads, everyone gets a version of the helmet.

 

Genetic modification coming along nicely, with a modified virus being used to mutate the DNA, negating the need for it to be added before birth. The main improvement so far is increased efficiency of the circulatory system, along with the respiratory system. This allows soldiers to tire less easily.

 

Some squads have been given a modified helmet and armour set which monitors vital signs and injects a cocktail of stimulants, painkillers and adrenaline into them when the vitals hit a certain point. Whether this will send them into a temporary state of being semi-superhuman or bring them back from the brink of death, there isn't a real way of telling. It's been designed to save lives, but it could just as easily be used to increase combat potential.

Yep. Why am I the only one who is willing to be multi-cultural? Actually, Turkey seems to be rather multi-cultural too. :P

Rebellions break out in South Korea in an attempt to thwart the Japanese tyranny.

 

They are requesting assistance from the Confederation.

What the heck?

 

I think that's an example of over moderation. <_< Especially since you also control the Confederation!

That took like...a year?

Don't try to instigate war Sere. War is going to happen eventually, but if stuff just randomly starts rebelling, then there's no one willing to fight a war because they're too busy with domestic issues.

 

The South Korean government invites the rebels to a sit down summit to ask them what they would like. They state that only through calm negotiation can both parties meet their objectives. Meanwhile, the South Korean government tells the Confederacy that as this is an internal affair, they have no right to intervene according to UN law.

More like 5 years.

 

It's a drug cocktail. not hard to make.

What the heck?

You obviously don't understand the history between Korea and Japan. Don't expect everyone you conquer to be happy to be under Japanese rule. That's not how it works.

 

And the rebels are much more than a rag-tag group of South Koreans.

Well the government is totally under my control, so I assume that you're controlling the protestors?

 

The South Korean government invites the leader(s) of the rebels to a summit to discuss the situation. (What do the rebels do?)

*You totally ignored what I have just said.* :roll:

 

Anyway. Let's have a vote.

 

Do the South Koreans rebel (more than a small group of rebels, I'm talking about a common desire to be independent)?

 

No 1 / 1 Yes
