Better make a vaccine for that too.

 

Also, antibiotics only cause resistance if they're overused. So I am making stronger antibiotics for when they do become stronger, so then I can just ignore the whole epidemic. :P

Spain researchs on making the lastest radar tech

And then they will become even stronger and more resistant to more stuff, so we'll still die.

Well I'll be using current antibiotics until the strain becomes stronger, so I'll use the stronger ones. I'll just keep developing them so that they stay ahead of the virus. :thumbsup:

I know, survival of the fittest and what not. I still don't want my people to die, so I'm still going to do whatever I can. Oh, are there vaccines against bacteria as well?

Retech, wow....

 

The problem is your solution...

I know, survival of the fittest and what not. I still don't want my people to die, so I'm still going to do whatever I can. Oh, are there vaccines against bacteria as well?

 

Or you could just stop using antibiotics on healthy animals on farms, which is causing the epidemic. :roll:

 

But I guess it won't matter for you anyway. You have bigger problems on your way anyway. We'll see how Fate treats you in the end. ;)

Fine by me! Japan bans the use of antibiotics in cows grown in Japan, and transitions into free-range grazing, rather than the traditional cow raising method. Japan also bans imports of all anti-biotic fed meat, to encourage countries who export beef to Japan to get rid of their antibiotics as well.

 

I was referring to humans by the way. :P

What bigger problems. :unsure:

 

It better not be economic, I've spent waaaay too much time arguing about that so far. I've already paused my growth for the moment, at least until I can iron it out with Archi before my economy suddenly grows 20% because of 5 or 10 years of backlog.

A basic way how the virus overcomes an antibiotic

 

Virus multiplies in body, antibiotic kills 99% of virus, 1% grows resistance, multiples, 100% have resistance.

 

Basically that

I'd like to remind you that beef isn't a big part of the Japanese diet. Gotta love them Sushi. :D

The Franco-German Government begins research of bacteriophages.

IMMA FIRIN9001 ICBMS atMALAYSIA!

Schools throughout the Federation begin teaching a new course called History of Moral Philosophy.

Switzerland points to RISUG and Isolationism, as well as clean mountain air and heavy research into bacterielogical warfare.

I think Switzerland will be fine without Anti-Biotics...Given that sales have steadly declined since the stop of mass invasion by foreign parasites...and the bacteria they bring with them :thumbsup:

Talks with Slovakia, FYROM, etc going well.

The NAP has passed two reformation acts this year that will help both the unemployed and decrease the number of prisoners in America.

 

The Unemployment Act of 2017 will create industrial jobs for those who are having a hard time finding an odd-end job. They will produce helmets, license plates, furniture, and other commodities. They will be paid something called the Grace Wage, which is lower than the Minimum Wage. Likewise, this provides an incentive for people to look for minimum+ wage jobs, but at least they'll have a job to work at until then. Due to the abundance of these jobs, it is easy to get hired. No one will be obligated to sign a contract promising to work at their Grace Wage job for a specified period of time.

 

The Prison Reformation Act of 2017 will abolish the Three Strike rule in order to decrease the amount of people imprisoned for trivial matters.

Scandinavia sells Japan anti-biotics free beef.

I know thats a high number, but I don't have the patience to wait a half real year.

 

Sorry, mate. You need to try to be as realistic as possible. If you had a 10% growth rate, you'll have more problems than you really want.

 

What's the population of Scandinavia?

4,850,440 + 9,336,487 + 5,532,531 + 5,352,000 + 319,368 + 57,600...

 

A total of 25,668,276.

Okay. I will figure out a reasonable growth rate for you if you can do something for me. Look up the population growth rates of each country and find the average of them all.

The Federation has stepped up efforts to fortify national treasuries such as Fort Knox.

This is very strange: Japanese beef coming from Scandanavia. Oh how the world has changed!

 

 

Several reforms:

Defensive military strength has been increased from 500,000 to 1 million, and reserve strength decreased from 1.5 million to 1 million. Offensive military strength stays the same at about 100,000 (the intervening part of the military).

 

Japan reaches out with North Korea to thaw relations. (Not annex, to be friendly) It asks the North Koreans to be friends with them, despite their history, and to work together to a common goal of stable economies and governments in Asia.

 

Japanese analysts have revised their forecast for the coming decade after a shift in Japanese government policy. The policy is to encourage steady economic growth. Analysts expect a growth rate of 3%.

 

The Pacific-Alliance has had a surge of nationalism recently. Polls indicate the views at 20% extremely positive, 75% Positive/Content, and only 5% at upset/discontent. This has been hailed as a victory of the campaign of cultural identity, but national pride.

Australia continues being awesome and continues all of it's projects and such.

S-Net is annoyed that nothing is going on and so makes tee-shirts saying so.

"2017, the year that wasn't"

And so on and so forth.

 

In other news the SSR has delieved

10,000 T34s.

3,000 Spitfires

1 Million AK47s

1,000 Avro Lancasters

1 Million Panzerfaust

 

Along with a Swiss delievery of

10,000 tonnes of High Explosive Bombs

Two million landmines of varying types

A loan of 200 Tonnes of Gold, to be paid back over 5 years

Ionosphere Anti-Radar Shields

Along with a detachment of Swiss Elite Guards to protect Emperor Haile Selassie II

 

All to Ethiopia, via Swiss Aircraft and various shipping routes.

 

Which have immediately been rushed into service, replacing the destroyed tanks and such from the last few years of war. Super Blitzkreg!!

 

While the weapons are relatively old, the sheer quanity...and the fact that a gun, turret or bomb will kill regardless....looks set to expand the new Abyssinan Empire far beyond the horn of Africa.

Conflict has resumed with numerous states, with some merely folding to the might of the the Abyssinan war machine.

Talks have begun between other African nations(doing Sere's Job for him) about uniting against this massive new threat and is calling for UN action against the Abyssinan State as well as the SSR and Switzerland for their part in this war.

Cabbigas has bluntly told the African Nations to grow a military or put up and shut up.

Abyssina has called the current period 'The Pause'...Ominously.

 

SSR aid workers have been allowed to remain in the territory formally known as South Africa, by the Abyssinan Empire, as per agreement from Haile Salassie. Though the Gold Mines have been nationalised to pay off the Swiss Debt, the SSR has been assured that, pending new ownership, all countries will be able to buy Gold in the future.

Abyssina is also exporting Diamonds, Platinum, Palladium, Uranium, Steel/Iron/Ore and Copper direct to Switzerland in payment of the debt.

 

S-Net has responded in a mixed way....Partly condeming the mass war, but also seeing the benefits being reaped from this new massive union, which has been greatly encouraged to develop by the Swiss Loan. However it seems most Europeans and Americans, aside from hand wringing, are not that fussed about Africans killing Africans....Of much greater importance is the implications for World Trade, which look very bright, given that Abysinna has relaxed trade restrictions and the World Diamond Council might relax its embargo on Conflict Diamonds, now that the conflicts are being resolved.

Switzerland has also agreed to take all prisoners of war and treat them fairly in light of some cliams that Abyssina cannot afford them at the moment.

 

There have been reports of numerous uprisings but they have all been crushed, the surviours sent to Switzerland, tried and convicted of Crimes of Sedition in Abysinia and will be held until Abysinia can take them back. Currently almost 4 million Abysinians(Well East Africans) have been sent to Switzerland and there has been speculation as to how Switzerland is supporting that many people given the small size of the country. But Switzerland is releasing no details(Will inform Sere).

 

Federation food has been sent to Abysinnia in payment for services rendered by Switzerland.

Scandinavia and Brazil have also been asked if it would be willing to consider a trade agreement of some type?

The SSR has been offered a temporary food contract as well, as has Russia and China.

Japan and Turkey have been offered a cheap raw materials, as has Switzerland, which has already accepted, once the loan has expired.

Japan has also been offered lucrative investment opportunities, as have all nations should they chose to accept them.

Japan, your doubling your army? Goodbye a lot of your GDP

Arch that was a huge expansion for the country, idk if that would even be possible. Likely all of Africa would unite against them at that point.

 

Also, taking control of the gold mines...

 

Stop. Doing. That.

 

The deal is still going on with South Africa gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

And it's good to know what you ordered all those vintage military vehicles for :P
