We have a Non-Aggression Pact with Indo and a MPP with Brazil now so we have to be on our best behavior with them.
The world ain't looking good for Spain and USA today as Spain will very possibly lose Asturias (a high iron region) and Canary Islands (a highly populated region with a good infrastructure) in about an hour. This means that the Fortis and Eden alliances will only have 1 high iron region left, Central Greece. The ESP has already depreciated and is now sitting at 0.023 GOLD to ESP down from yesterday's 0.033 (33% drop). The market price for iron has shot up by about 25 - 30c which will soon impact the market prices of weapons in the US and other F/E countries. France, who is attacking Asturias, has already preemptively raised the iron income tax to 50% to try and shut companies out of production. Not only will the loss of Asturias cause the ESP to bomb out, citizens to be left behind enemy lines and weapons/iron prices to shoot up, but it will also open up a new battle front to the US via Virginia. Virginia borders South Carolina which borders Georgia, which is a neighbour to Florida (US' most populated region with 5562 citizens, a loooot of companies, a Q5 hospital and a Q5 defence system).
