1. Robert was tired of any kind of work, whether as a king or husband. I think he listened to Cersei mostly so he wouldn’t have to argue with her.

  2. Yea I don't think he was afraid of Twyin as others have said.

  3. KR time-line is bad for everybody except Germany and Austria. Everybody and their mother gets a civil war and if not they lost territory and are about to reconquer it.

  4. The SRs would probably be pro Syndicates. Probably the moderate wing

  5. Yea let's get those artists working on code. What was Paradox thinking?

  6. I mean humans would have a 7/10 chance of being straight up unalived when you hit them. Repelling seems like overkill

  7. I live very near there! My wife and I are in our late 20s and love it.

  8. Israel isnt colonialist. The middle east isn’t 100% arab

  9. I’m not sure Tywin would be pleased with Cersei and Stannis. He wanted Cersei to be queen which is why he tried to betroath her to Rhaegar and then finally to Robert.

  10. Not to mention you're giving the Martells free reign to investigate and punish Tywin and his family? He's going to tell you to fuck right off and plan for the war

  11. Sword of justice is on the paladins near Karlach in Act 1.

  12. When does the lore diverge here? Without the October Revolution I could see this. He never came to power and pissed everyone off so they can overlook his actual beliefs to view him as generic socialist revolutionary.

  13. "Pulling a Japan" requires a very specific mindset. Namely recognizing that you're very behind and very in danger and the willingness to destroy traditional power structures to modernize

  14. They might not reform along Roman lines like Japan did along Western lines, but by 2000s it'd be silly to assume they'd look the same as they do prior to pre-Columbian era.

  15. I thought crime in Logan Square was a conspiracy theory in the Reddit world. Also, isn’t Logan square trying to abolish the police? Are people (CTU lovers) in Logan square opening their eyes….????maybe just maybe there is hope!

  16. As soon as Theon was back in their clutches they no longer needed to have reservations, but Theon took a huge gamble to strike at the head of the North.

  17. The Greyjoys, especially Balon gave absolutely 0 fucks about Theon's safety

  18. In the books 100%. For some reason I recall the show being different, that they weren't intending a full invasion, but I could definitely be wrong. In the books thought you are correct that the plan from the start was to take the North.

  19. Yea maybe I'm confusing them. I read the books more recently than I've watched the show

  20. Once you get over all the maluses they have initially they can be pretty strong. I haven't played them in a long time but when I did I cheesed the market liberal event from back then and reformed quite quickly. I actually felt like I recovered it and could beat up others relatively soon

  21. Tanzimat can be quite hard now with how long it takes to pass laws.

  22. Tanzimat isn't hard. Ignore everything else, beeline for General Staff for Organised Training (Military Rearmament done), attack Egypt for Syria (Reclaim Syria done), attack Egypt again for Cairo (Reclaim Egypt done), and then wait for Suppress Seperatism to finish and there you go

  23. Yea, if you can get Egypt, it's easy. I'm trying to plot a reliable course for multi-player, and I don't see the GPs letting me get Egypt proper very often and definitely not reliably

  24. SPD is a socialist party, not a liberal one, that's the confusion

  25. Dude a flag will never not be political when its for a nation lol.

  26. This would almost certainly be a secular state. Israel/zionism at the time was largely secular, and the Arab parts are probably run by Arab socialists so also pro secular state

  27. That thoroughly depends on initiative. If you don't have initiative, Marcus can smite Isobel before you have the chance to act

  28. Yep, in my latest run on tactician, he went first and just killed her before anyone but Astarion went

  29. The idea that Republicans were somehow conservative in any sense of the word in the 1800s is pretty fucking hilarious honestly

  30. You got the sickle but not the hammer. Irl there was not a massive working class in Russia in 1917, but it was concentrated in the west. Moscow and Petrograd, and in Polish and Baltic cities to a degree.

  31. To add on to this, Russia's industrialization was weird. It was very, very advanced in the places it existed. So, in places like the major cities and areas with important resources, you had an industrial economy as technologically advanced as any in Europe. In the rest of the country, the rural peasantry still lived more or less like they always had.

  32. There was a somewhat unusual uptick in August and September, but numbers for October and November are more in line with past years. Citywide, we had a somewhat high year, but nothing they will stand out in long-term analysis of crime.

  33. Buckle up buttercup. With CTU telling BJ to be soft on crime Chicago has only seen the beginning of high levels of crime. CTU with BJ in their pocket will practice soft policing in Chicago until the next mayoral election.

  34. Johnson literally just increased the police budget

  35. Ever since the Oct 7th attack I’ve seen an insane amount of defence run for muslims when it comes to hating queer people.

  36. It's because people are using the Palestinians' homophobia to justify their murder. Calling out Hamas for being homophobic isn't really a priority as Israel kills 3k or more people a week

  37. A "perfect storm" of misery in the entire region. A dash of post colonial blues mixed with a heaping pinch of climate change related famine. Russian invasion of Ukraine has severely hampered what food does come to the region. Now add Wagner Group, a tablespoon of Jihadism and Voila! You have perhaps the worst off region in the world. In total collapse!

  38. It will be an uneasy peace. Cof is too devastated in ww1, likely embargoed by everyone. Germany is riddled with crises. British might be in a better position though, so they may help french exiles attack cof sometime.

  39. If they aren't overly belligerent, I don't think there'd be a permanent embargo. The money to be made off trading with France would just be too good for European capitalists to pass up. They'd most likely pressure the government to seek a detente with France.
