No examples from me, just curious.

The necessity for an army.

I see this opinion a lot. Sincere question, how are countries without armies supposed to defend themselves from imperialism?

You can rephrase it in lighter terms as “how much is enought military funding?”
- ulterno ( @ulterno@programming.dev ) English0•6 days ago
enought military funding
as much as can keep you more powerful than the rest of the competition combined.

Well that escalated quickly.

At least that’s what I aim for in Civ VI.

My aim for CIV is minimal military to survive a first push but enough money to just buy military units to then push back, take all their cities and be labelled warmonger. Suddenly everyone wants a piece of this ass so i spend the rest of the game fighting… I see I have a problem in this pipeline

I don’t play Civ VI and I don’t rule a country so I can’t speak from experience.

Pretty simple actually.
Just make sure you don’t have any resource worth anything in the international market.- Let stuff like petroleum, Lithium, Uranium and other such thingies be sold to the first bidder.
- Have your soil be nuclear contaminated, down to the bedrock, so nobody wants your land.
- Also, import all nuclear waste from other countries
- Have a population that looks as ugly as possible, so noone will want to rape your people.
- Should be easier considering point 2
- Something like leprosy in the genitals would help too.
- Be absolutely full of population, such that the place is a cesspool.
Hey, I said it’d be simple, not that it would be easy or even humanly possible.

in the cases that i could think of; i was arguing with people who wanted to remain willfully ignorant and refused to hear any sort of reasoning that contradicted their views, so it was a matter of accepting that i can’t force people to educate themselves because the information i was sharing was easily verifiable fact.
