        The government in Ireland has leapt off our comfortable fence recently to support the US. The Taoiseach has indicated that even in the event of war he will still allow US airplanes to refuel in Shannon. The government has not openly come out and said that they support the war so there's still a bit of amibiguity about it, but their policies seem to suggest otherwise.

        The majority of the population however do not support the war. Estimates of 80,000 - 100,000 people turned up in Dublin for the Anti-War March yesterday.

          As Boris said, we are good in many things... but when it comes to politics it would have been better if we stayed under Austro-Hungarian control

              IIRC, Italy was never under Austro-Hungarian control.

              From what I hear Belgium refuses to allow NATO to send defensive missiles to Turkey in this stadium.

              It looks like that situation has now been settled. Turkey will get the defensive help from NatO they asked for.

                He may be from Northern Italy, which was for some time.

                  You were never under Austro-Hungarian control! There was a time when the dual empire had possession of Venice and Lombardy, and further back in history there was a time when Hapsburgs sat on the throne of the Kingdom of Two Sicilies, but that is all.

                    The Venice and Lombardia regions were.

                      I wonder what happens if when American troops occupy the whole country it turns out that Iraq had no WOMD?

                          I'm sure the US will have some mock weaponry they can use for show and tell.

                          Also the US can just say they destroyed all the weapons and evidence of weapons with their cruise missile firestorm.

                            LOL

                            I was obviuosly joking

                            Anyway, where I'm from we never were under Austro-Hungarian Control, it was actually the only completely independent region (a bit of French influence perhaps) and my region is actually the one which liberated Lombardy and Venice from Austrian control.

                            As for other regions:

                            Lombardy and Venice were Austrian provinces
                            Tuscany was an Austrian Vassal (when the Medici dinasty died and the Lorraine came to power there)
                            Modena and Parma were under Ausburgs
                            The Pope was always seeking for Austrian help here and there
                            The Two sicilies were under the Borbon.

                            Than of course there was the Kingdom of Sardinia, with Torino as Capital (that's where i'm from), which was eventually the one which unified all the Italian states, including Lombardy and Venice.

                              Thier would still be traces of the stuff even after a "cruise missile firestorm" unless we started using low yield nukes to make sure we got all of the NBC material in an area.

                                nothing will happen, because it won´t be brought up and no one would really care.
