      I hate Napo. Bloody murderer. The only way I'd like him would be for him to crush the Rosbifs
      Unfortunately, the Rosbifs resisted

        No Spiffor... I meant you could BE the emperor instead of just following in his footsteps...

        As for Rosbif resistance, I've been told the Prussians, Russians, Austrians, Spanish and Portuguese had a lot to do with it as well.

          Anyways I find the Chinese choice interesting. Imagine creating the industrial age hundres of years ahead of the Europeans. The only problem is the majority of the population is isolationist. So could you really do anything with that high technology?
          Only neo-confucianists were truly isolationists. China had been an open country for most of its history. It only appeared isolated because it was so hard to reach.

          China had the best shot at capitalism during the Song dynasty. Unlike any other dynasties, the main source of state income was based on industry and trade, not on agriculture.

                    Of course, we Eurocoms are far more subtle. We'd simply choke Lonestar to death using one of our special 'killer pretzels', a prototype of which was tested out on Bush some time ago.
