[quote=@ClocktowerEchos] I'd find the idea interesting, but its most likely not the PRK who'd help Fuso since Fuso won't want their help. They have a socialism-esque economy with the government planning quotas and such but its otherwise a free market. They'd also suspect the PRK as trying to sew seeds for a Communist revolution. As for you're questions, Fuso is the stronger one at least in terms of land and its resources, I just answred the other question and the Dominion is closer but not by much. Although, how would a proxy war like this work? The two sides nudge the empire and the dominion enough to the point its total war all over again? [/quote] The classical definition of a proxy war was Vietnam. Both China and the United States threw tons of support towards one side and really fought one another using the original conflict as just a pretext. In this case it'd be more than just Moravia trying to undermine an enemy or make them look weak, since they have a vested interest in getting resources from the region. They would thus want to protect their trade partner and unify the region under a friendly government to get access to even more stuff.
