Well , I'm glad you asked, yesterday was the anniversary of the atomic bomb being dropped on Hiroshima.

OK, still looking for Lumber and Iron!

On this day in 1583 explorer Humphrey Gilbert established the first English colony in North America at what is now St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

Both are needed my friend but already have a wheat supplier and a second would only drive down costs and cripple the economy.

Happy Swiss National Day!

On this day in 1924 the World Chess Federation (FIDE) is formed in Paris.

They're here in the wiki.

No, the custom flags are added to every time a new alliance gets sanctioned so that their members can use the flag of their alliance in-game. Personal custom flags are not allowed.

I'm well aware of what n00b did. Your point was that n00b sacrificed economic growth to buy the MP and get nukes, which is a main reason why he has 20k less NS than LeVentNoir. My point was that If he'd done the same as LeVent Noir he'd have the extra NS and the nukes (the effects of wars not included, although there doesn't seem to have been much of that). Tell me how those aren't related, rolleyes. There are obviously reasons why n00b went for the MP and the nukes instead of economic growth (probably the same reasons that I just have) but in the long-term was forsaking economic growth for military power worth it?

Happy Birthday to oft-injured Browns TE Kellen Winslow and hairy 'comedian' Robin Williams.

Happy Birthday to US footballer Claudio Reyna and Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook.

And yet LeVentNoir has 20k more NS and a nuclear stockpile.
