☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆Imperial soldiers be like
glorkonI despise anyone who becomes a soldier of their own free will. The moment you enlist, you accept that you will be obliged to kill, and that you will have no control over whether that killing will be justified.
AzraelThats the trick. If a country doesn’t have a military and they have something like resources other countries want. The become puppets of the countries that have militaries. The exceptions are small countries that don’t have enough of anything anyone wants for others to bother taking it. They don’t tend to do so well usually.
It’s a race to the bottom.

Very much so. So ewhere there is a balance of having enough to be a stable country, but not so much to draw attention. But it’s a very small point to balance on.
