You know, I always wondered why they chose to name it Earth Solidarity Pact instead of the UN, but then I realized it all made sense given the name of united military of the AANW nations and all the war crimes and atrocities committed by the United Nations Armed Force during the war probably would leave the name a bad taste to everyone mouth, especially when trying to use it as a name for an organization based on safekeeping peace on the three worlds.
Worse. The United Nations Armed Forces was not just cruel to enemy civilians and prisoners of war, but also towards civilians who expressed defeatist tendencies and soldiers who deserted and/or tried to surrender.

The scene during the surrender of the AANW CIS nations where the A4 officers ordered their artillery to open fire upon AANW Indian and UAR troops who followed orders by their governments to surrender to Coallition force was a particulary dark moment and shows how far the A4 morality has fallen.

Don't forget all those instances of summary executions (or drumhead court-martials ending with executions) that occured for deserters as draconian measures were enacted by the UNAF to maintain order as morale began to collapse.

Honestly I was actually surprised that there were so many amongst UNAF who would either desert or surrender even those of the former A4, given the AANW world irrational hatred towards Germany along with GDI that it was stated by Calbear himself that the nations of the AANW would rather commit national suicide than allowed a militaristic united Germany to exist yet the mass surrender of UNAF soldiers during the final stages of the war shows otherwise.

It really shows how bad morale was in the UNAF at that point.

Most of the cases were IIRC of soldiers trying to surrender to the National Revolutionary Army or forces of other members of the GDI, FWIW. Besides, basic human instincts of self-preservation is one hell of a drug when it comes to this.

But the UNAF and most of the AANW nation hated GDI and the Republic of China as much as the German Empire. Going so far as to labelled them "Nazis" and think of them as such. And there were still large number of UNAF soldier surrendering to the forces of the German Empire.

Well you have a good point there, the only exception would be the fanatical and suicidal AANW polish soldiers in the UNAF.

Another series I would recommend is a french one "the Sun King's Eclipse" the series explore the story of France and the world if Louis XIV had died age 47.

Even their fellow United Nations Armed Forces troops thought they were kinda nuts, to show how fanatical and suicidal they were.

Well remembering the scene from Clash of the World series, do any of you remember the one time during one A4 Hitler assasination attempts, when an AANW SAS team mistook Kaiserstein verse Charlie Chaplain for for our favourite kindhearted toothbrush mustached painter slash architect and tried to assasinate him?

Unfortunately for them, unlike Hitler, their attempts didint went unnoticed by Chaplain, who through a combination guile, wits,and good ol fashion slapstick comedy managed to capture the entire SAS including the AANW Delta force team sent as reinforcement after being put through several humiliating events and turned them over to the police on live TV. The blowback from all three worlds was absolutely legendary when it seem like the A4 has an unwarranted grudge against the by then one of the top multiworld comedy celeberties in history.

The blowback went up to a whole new level, at least in Kaiserstein and even TTA verse, when the panicking and flustered A4 representative who was making a statement about the incident blurted out live on how they were actually meant to target Hitler in the face of the flurry of aggresive questions from the reporters.

It was a disaster on the same scope as the Khwarezmians killing Genghis Khan's diplomats in terms of diplomatic disaster.

Well at least this diplomatic diasaster didint lead to a war, well not then and there that is.

That said, the amount of sanctions slapped upon the A4 by the two worlds was simply jaw dropping including the League of Free Nations which itself was seen as one of the key factors that turned the AANW world to be antagonastic and even outright hostile to them in both the pre war and post war.

Even the CIS following India and UAR levied sanctions upon the A4 showing how pissed they were about the attempted assasination of one of the most beloved comedy superstars in history back then with AANW China also joining in on the action.

These sanctions also include a vast list of techology from the Kaiserstein and TTA world being banned from trade from the A4, resulting many key details of dieselpunk tech being closed from the A4. Thus both Kaiserstein and TTA were able to trade and advance in tech at a more rapid pace with the A4 being left behind in general. There is a reason why the CIS were the most technologically advanced out of the AANW world prior and during the war, only the German Empire being considerably more advanced and India being slightly behind GDI in terms of tech. Which was why their surrender was so catastrophic for the AANW world war efforts.

And advanced cybernetic technology the TTA powers had as well, which is why the AANW forces were so outmatched in terms of computer tech as well.

So what do you think was the harshest sanction placed upon the A4 due to incident other than the restriction of tech trade?
 
A ban on pop culture from A4 powers by the Kaiserstein Germans.
Didint GDI and the LOFN also did the same?

This is probably the reason why India and CIS pop culture were the most well known fro the AANW world to the Kaiserstein and TTA verse during the pre war and post war period.
 
So how do you guys think Italy from Footprints of Mussolini react to the devastation of Rome at the hand of GDI during the Fourth World War in TTA verse?
 
Well the first episodes of season 6 of Clash of the Worlds has come out. It seems like both the Reichspakt and GDI have finally reach a dentente when two new worlds suddenly showed up from Return of the Rodina and Footprints of Mussolini. What do you guys think of the episodes?

I find it interesting about the unease among the new worlds towards the conflict and terrorism in the AANW world now under occupation as well FOM!Italy outrage towards GDI at the beginning due to the what they did to Rome in their world which was later somewhat mollified when they learned that GDI tried the officers responsible for it and then help rebuild it post war. I am honestly shocked at the sheer venom Italy displayed towards ROTR!Russia once they found out why what was once Israel is now a radioactive wasteland. I thought they would be a little more understanding given that Israel launched the nukes first wiping out Moscow and Russia simply retaliated abeilt severely disproportionately.

It didn't help that the Russian President is open about his far-left political views and you know how communism is seen in Footprint of Mussolini.

Well its not completely communism, and FOM! world didint react that badly towards GDI despite how many of if member nations have leftists governments. Honestly, it seems like a new cold war is going to erupt between FOM!Italy and ROTR!Russia with the Reichspakt, GDI and LOFN, the former two finally reaching an understanding between them are now watching the new clusterfuck now unfolding in front of them.
