The commonwealth of second nations
</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">The Commonwealth of Second nations is a tiny, economically powerful nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 5 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The small government devotes most of its attentions to Law & Order, with areas such as Social Welfare and Commerce receiving almost no funds by comparison. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5%. A robust private sector is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing industries.
Crime is a serious problem. Second nations's national animal is the disturbed pussy cat and its currency is the karma

Yearly, bah, it is a continous battle between good and evil like a movie marathon. watching three or so movies about how christmas was saved by some cartoon, anime, child character in a row can be  really mind numbing. You should avoid this predicament at all costs even if you are really really bored.

The only game (i know) that really uses DX8s muscle is Aquanox. Which is my point exactly as ex-ronin said before. Screw DX9.

Iran's government is so crap/pathetic that they blame the "west" to divert attention from their own inadequacies. The country has been oppressing reform since the revolution from the dictatorship the US wanted (I suppose you could guess who they don't like). These guys are B.A.D. , I wouldn't trust them building a pea-shooter factory. Guess what, Iran is governed in absolute power by a muslim religious body! (muslim terrorists anyone?) What ever the outcome or purpose of this whole nuclear thing, Iran sure isn't standing around being pleasant...

To be quite honest, i had no idea what greece was doing in WWII or in that era. Thnx Ex-ronin!

Not true. Germany insist on opening echelon protocols, cause there are several patent pendings that have been stolen. We have an assumed echelon dish here near munich and the government is not happy about it.<span id='postcolor'>

The minigun from "Predator" was owned by a California firearms dealer/rental agency that routinely rented weapons to "Hollywood"....The RIDICULOUS overbearing gun laws in California eventually caused them to decide to sell off their stock and close shop.
That particular minigun sold for something like 25 thousand dollars.<span id='postcolor'>

Amusing way to spend American tax money
:Call a random number in USA via satellite phone. In four or five different languages say "Kill, president of the united states, osama, big bomb, nuclear, allah is great".
It will trigger the following events:
1) Your talk will be recorded and flagged by Echelon.
2) A junior NIO at NSA will listen to the message and conclude that he doesn't understand it.
3) Four or five linguist will be brought in to translate the text.
4) One or several senior analysts will try to figure the message out.
The downside: the next day you might get an unexpected visit from a tomahawk cruise missile

Star wars episode 2 anyone? To think they made an army of new zealanders too
(the original was a new zealander actor)! As long as they don't make an army of clones from any minorities i don't care about cloning. -

echelon was/is used to monitor all telecommunications traffic in europe. has been for years and the info about it is unclassified.
you don't know half of what the US government can do and already does.<span id='postcolor'>
did you hear what denior said

echelon only reads/scans plaintext for keywords, although if you are mentioning bomb and stuff like that ,it will then record your message. Essentally if you call a bomb denior's pet
or send your message in a simple cipher, then your can cause problems for echelon. Although don't quote me on that, i do not know how echelon works other then some reports.EDIT: spelling

You could do like Red Alert 2. The allies would get the chronospheres, weather storms and so on. The commies would get the nukes and iron curtains. Then each country could have special unit with a specialisation like the iraq chemical weapon trooper.
What leader are you most like?
