DBWI: What if the United States had survived into the 21st Century?

Asia might look quite different had the US survived... You wouldn't see China and other regional Communist nations and the New Co-Pros...I mean the Pact of Manila* glaring at one another. Nor would you have Japan with its own nuclear arsenal.

And yes, I know everyone pretends they don't have nukes, but we all know...

So, what do you think of the European Federation's Golden Milestone Project (OOC: Essentially the EF's version of the Belt and Road Initiative of the PRC)?
 
I have to invoke Popov's law[1]: "As a discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Trotsky approaches 1"

My point is that it seems like there are only two kinds of people these days who care about proletarian internationalism. Left communists, and Trots, and Trots are basically as ignorant on Marx as the rest of the so-called "socialists".

OOC: Can you please stop asking "What do you think of..." questions? Normally it wouldn't be an issue, but I've seen you do it over and over and over in more than a few threads, and it sort of derails discussions and comes off as begging. I enjoy your contributions, but you don't need to do this quite so often.

iC: I liked these Golden Milestone Project. i hope it will succeed..
European President West seems to be highly invested in the Golden Milestone Project with the increased economic ties between the EF and the Pact of Manila, the Republic of India, and the United Arab Republic.

My country ousted both Kim Il Sung and southern Imperialists, now this?

But why?

But why?

Well, it was kind of inevitable. All of those countries were fairly hard-line anti-communist, and all relied on the US. When the US went down...they all preferred hanging together rather than hanging separately. Add to that that America had been giving Japan the tech to build the bomb in exchange for not using it unless they had to...
 
Because of the fact he was elected President of the EF under the "European Dream" platform which involves the EF eventually supplanting the USSR as the world's main power.

Why would they call it the European Dream if he's clearly trying to evoke the "American Dream", and that was proven to be hollow with the whole fall of the USA. That seems like a terrible name, honestly.

Also, how did Europe even unify, anyway? If I remember correctly, a few decades ago they were at each others throats.
 
It took Having USSR in east.

OOC: So you're telling me that even before the USA fell, when they were "protected", the entire regions of Western and Central Europe just decided "Eh, whatever, let's throw away thousands of years of fighting one another because we have a common threat, and instead of just making alliances between us like we've done before in the case of, say, Germany...Eh, screw it, let's dissolve all national borders and abolish our governments!

It actually started as alliance like that,but as time grew, it is becoming centralized. And European Federation traces its roots to European Economic Community and NATO in 1959.
