Tbh thats kinda dumb if Apple irl stops sending products to other countries, they're gonna lose bussiness, the country earns money when they sell the items abroad increasing the wealth of Apple, clearly why if they stopped exporting products they will lose a lot more. It says the United States is the currently most powerful country in the world and leading to it is both Russia and China and the UK. I honestly dont feel like explaining stuff but US has a bigger budget on the militray over china and russia but china has more manpower than america. Welp thats all I know, I need to reasearch more on World Economics and other stuff.

‘Mad farmers’

Now you’re just using stereotypes, and no, the US Army doesn’t have ‘44 times’ more nukes than the U.K., I believe it’s only 231 more. Do you not think the U.K. has alliances aswell? Thé European Union? Please get your facts right before trying to slander my country.

Goodbye
Britain: 215 warheads

USA: 6,800 warheads

Now I will say I am a devoted Republican, though I missed the 2016 vote by a month before my 18th birthday, but setting politics aside, a military for the server is crucial to protect against threats, lets say another server decides to come in and commit terrorist acts. That's called a "raid". Seen it before, happens too often. Mainly other servers' police and military (some have special forces units which to me are just kids pretending to be cool and want to "operate") that just do that. Now I understand there are freelance vigilantes out there on the server who either work with or against the police. I have yet to see a private military contractor, though PMC's can be bad because they will operate for the highest bidder, whereas a regular military works for a centralized government falling under a Secretary of Defense and the President (if there is not a Minister of Defense, one needs to be made). Now what the Minister (or Sec Def or the President) do with the military is up to them. This is what I am putting forth and anymore suggestions? Also, like sundae said, refrain from politics as this is more of a national security (server security to be exact) topic. I am open to political discussions in direct or private messages and discord.

Could it be that the British are still mad that a bunch of farmers from The United States won the revolutionary war against the strongest country in the world at the time Britain? The U.S. military has 44 times more nukes then Britain which it doesn't matter as to a point nuclear warfare would end the world.

You say that Britain has 215 warheads, and America has 6,800. This is not 44 times more. 215 x 44 = 9,460, which is not what America has. Keep your information consistent.

Thank you, and what I asked was a question, which still hasn’t been answered Trump, you just flew a ton of lies towards me

Are you able to do simple maths? That isn’t 44 times more. Don’t believe everything you’re told. As you’re telling me the us managed to make an astronomical amount of missles in ww II which is not possible at the current rate of production back then.

We'll all be dead before you American's can even get through 100 nukes, including America. There's a reason why nuke's are never sent. They're more of a scare tactic than an actual weapon, nobody has the balls to actually send a nuke. Cause that'd be the end of their country. If a country sent a nuke and the enemies retaliated with nukes, that'd be the end of the world. If the actual nukes didn't kill us all the nuclear winter would.

Also, Britain's navy would destroy the American navy.

I think this sounds like a good idea, however it will need staff to run it and control it, which is difficult for staff to do, as if the staff who runs the military is demoted or resigns, then there will need to be a new staff member or trusted player to replace this role. There is already police, arch and teacher who need staff to run them (3+ staff members for this) so adding more needed staff to run a seemingly important add-on to the server may be difficult to achieve. If there was a way this count work without staff constantly maintaining the peoples ranks and making sure they don't misuse it, it may be a lot better

@LeanneTheUnicorn If you want to step up to the plate on this, I can assist you and guide you through what must be done first and how things normally operate. (Counting down the years and months until I enlist in the United States Navy).

If she's the Ministry of Security, then that can include a military because security can equal either police or military. Like in France you have the French GIGN, a specialized police unit that also serves as the special forces which conduct clandestine operations. GIGN is more of a military unit than a police unit and falls under their Defense Minister which is basically Security. @Shadow_stalker77

@LeanneTheUnicorn I've looked at the negatives and positives of this. One thing I've seen that can be done is attach a military police battalion to police operations and since military have far more training, they can act as a specialized SWAT team; either a title of Special Response Team or HRT (Hostage Rescue Team).

Speaking as a player, there doesn't seem to be a need for this. Terrorists from other servers won't come on and need to be attacked by the military - that's what /ban is for. It'd be cool if there was specialized training for the police force, but there isn't really a reason to create a military. There aren't any wars between islands/cities and likely never will be, and how would these soldiers get paid? Police are paid from bails but soldiers wouldn't arrest anyone, and likely would not do the work for free.

Volunteer. You can consider this more of a National Guard because National Guards are based out of a state and are apart of the state government and the military. Further more the National Guard can be called out for states of emergencies during natural disasters, riots, extreme unrest and violence resulting from riots.

Gl killing no one when police can jail them. The army can’t kill without a reason, and plus the only people who would do this are ppl needing money or OP people probs gonna abuse the heck out lol

We had A Swat at one point, it was basically run by the vigs
