Planet Bob and the war ongoing will change the paradigm that has existed to date. Will whatever fills the vacuum left really be any different from what has gone before.

I'm sure they will begin with a new less oppressive regime. Yet, being the new power, forces not seen will begin to coalesce and marshal in opposition. It will begin with individual nations opposed and if you only response is ZI, then escalation by these nations will lead to what essentially is the re-birth of EZI or PZI.

You might not call it permanent or eternal, but if re-rolls continue behavior that got them ZIed and you continue to ZI you have in essence what NPO and others did.

Once a nation renounced their old behavior and demonstrated they were not following their former opposition NPO removed them eternal ZI and allowed back into the community of nations.

If NPO continues the fight as Vox Populi did will the new power also be predisposed to finally offer "White" peace or do as NPO did; eternal war.
