China sold all it's US treasury bonds mysteriously right before the currency change :thumbup:

No, I'm just ignoring your lack of economical understanding. Seeing as the way I've been handling my nation is making it rely less and less on imports, and less on profits from exports, the world crash doesn't affect me that much. Also, 90%? Are you kidding me? This further proves my point.

 

I got it all from Arch.:roll:

 

Well, I suppose that the Federation Dollar is among the most powerful currencies right now.

Well, archi doesn't think that GDP matters, and that gold is the only thing that counts in the world. So, same to him.

 

And no, the federation currency is among the weakest, since it's based in gold, and there's only so much gold. Because of this your economical holds are limited to what you have in gold.

All gold mines in Brazil are now nationalized, as well as most in SATO. SATO's gold fund is now going to get 75% of SATO's annual gold production, Brazil 15%, and the rest to whomever buys.

I just said 70-90% as an estimate. Since just about everyone has some mystic reason why they are getting out of it...

 

Grim, I am working it out in terms of your leu for trading. You are still in the black...I am in the red =( Though I have been meaning to get rid of currency anyway.

EGG has no clue what's going on and continues fighting the Republic of the Congo. Also preparing for a fight with Cameroon or Angola.

Everyone go to the argument thread and discuss whatever the hell you want to discuss.

 

I was told that this would work, so I don't see why I should be held accountable while everyone else ignores it.

 

We can just delete the last two pages (about the global market collapse) and just pretend that it never happened, since everyone feels so strongly about it.

Debt adjusted figures.

Anyway, I'm off for the night and won't be back on.

 

I have school tomorrow and can't bother with staying on for another hour for people to vent their frustration at me. :roll:

@ Dusty - I'm uniting people that are already united (essentially). Wikipedia.org --> arab league. Turkey unites it into a military alliance and bam, it's a country basically.

No...just no.

 

That's like saying NAFTA is a country, or NATO, or the EU. It's a loose affiliation of states that share religion, if not culture.

Adjust from above, Arch. Cheers.

 

Changes:

Added 600 tonnes of gold from a deal with SATO

3,000 tonnes magically appeared in my holdings, as per the Sere Effect.

 

Anyway, I'm off for the night and won't be back on.

Yea, it's not like you did anything bad, like crash the world econo...oh.

That darn Sere Effect... Well as long as you are willing to storm some international holding house and 'liberate' the Gold...Just tell me where, since the IMF has already been looted, er, Liberated.

 

I will add the 600

Well seeing as that's not adjusted from real world, and this world is different. I'm canceling all the debt I owe to the federation, since they caused the economic disaster. If they want to do something about it, they can. Also, I'm not following this stupid gold standard system, sure, some of my money will be backed by gold, but the rest will be backed by everything else. As long as I can go to the store and buy a sandwich with my money, it has backing.

That darn Sere Effect... Well as long as you are willing to storm some international holding house and 'liberate' the Gold...Just tell me where, since the IMF has already been looted, er, Liberated.

I stole it from the Goblins that live deep within the mines of Moria.

 

BALLLROG RUNNNNNNNNNNN

 

weeeeeeeee

Btw, I'm being completely serious about that 3,000 tonnes of gold that got added to my reserve. If Sere can crash the economy and steal the only reserve fund meant to lessen the impact of a global financial meltdown and justify it by saying 'I wanted to switch currencies', then I can steal 3k tonnes of gold from Goblins. Also, I killed some Orc on the way there, because quite frankly they suck.

Doom, I am just appying the facts as they are presented to me...Given that no one publishes any figures its hardly shocking that I use Wikipedia...

Anyway, the Gold Standard is the 'Real' standard...but it doesn't mean you have to pay the blindest bit of attention to it.

Don't Dwarves live in Moria?

Don't Dwarves live in Moria?

Not anymore! They kept stealing [cabbage] from the basement storage room, so the landlord finally got pissed and came up and kicked them out and let some new tenants in.

Dear me... The things they get up to.

 

Anyway, the IMF is based in the USA... So he has a fairly easy access route...what with his massive military.

You on the other hand rolled a 9 and failed to discover the Mines of Moria and the Goblins rolled a 1 so they failed to exist anyway.=P

 

Switzerland has decided to abandon currency. King Archi is quoted as saying 'It was getting in the way' Some are shocked and appaled...Luckly the Last Cresent seems largely responsive and is filling in for slackers. There have been NO REPORTS of violent crime against the strike members.

 

Dusty, do you want 500 tonnes of gold in exchange for canceling the electrical debt?

The rest of the money is going to Abysinia(If you don't want it then the 500 goes too)

 

In other news the SSS Switzerland has posted on S-Net 'Hahahaha, lol, thought the US would crack one day. Way 2 go Switzerland for dumping money.'

Chinese scientists have reverse engineered the Berlin portal, and recent tests caused the world to implode at an alarming rate.

recent tests caused the world to implode at an alarming rate.

An unalarming rate is too quickly to be noticed :thumbup:

Oh and the PRC migrates to Middle earth, which has a much more stable economy along with plenty of gold :thumbsup:

The golden horde has reformed and has swept into Russia and the middle east.

Dusty, it's more like a group of nations that agree on most major political issues, have common culture, and could very easily be pushed into a war where they are all on the same side.

A religious war, maybe. Not a nationalistic war though. Besides, I wasn't arguing that you can't unite them in the game, I was arguing that the speed at which you're 'politically' annexing an entire sub-continent is way too fast.

 

Dear me... The things they get up to.

You mean the army that would not exist any more because the entire US economy just collapsed? Yeah, some mighty army. And I don't really care what you rolled.

Yes, that will cover it nicely. :)

Updated figures for the SR:

Also, how exactly do you plan on abandoning currency? That would put your country back into a nomadic bunch of tribes.

Pretty much by using nationalism. Doing your bit for your country and all that Jazz. 'sides, my economy doesn't really need to grow or anything so I can afford to employ only those who are fevourantly engaged to the cause... Which will constantly increase.

 

Rolling was a joke...

The Army that existed because, oddly enough, Sere sees them as vital as national interests...hence paid for them. Going onto the Gold Standard doesn't wipe your economy out, it just changes it...a lot...

SATO will stop all trade with the federation over the next 3 years, due to their lack of foresight economically. It would have made a ton of more sense to ease into the new system (or, old system, actually), rather than gung [garden tool] it. Seeing as so far it looks like America's maybe even profited from this, cutting out a lot of trade to them could help even it out.

Lol...had to share this.

I believe there is a unwritten rule against making your people work for free. It's too game breaking.

Following SATO's lead, the SR has cut all trade with the Federation for the next 3 years as well (I get 90% of my raw materials from SATO, China, and Russia anyways).

They get food.... From my many slaves(Joke)

 

Anyway it doesn't really make any difference to me...The people will do the same jobs with or without money... I announce a new Swiss Standard. Basically going in Doom's footsteps and abandoning Gold entirely, instead the obvious power of the state will provide and must be provided for. Goods will be traded with nations if I need goods. Simple as that.

 

Anyway, gone fishing, toodle pip.
