[@Combo move] I apologize because I'm probably not going to write as much as you did but as Midhar proposed Previously, I think you should scale back tech, despite you being a migrant nation with the fre flow of ideas because most of the world probably sees you as land ripe for the picking and if you get just too advanced, they'll descend on you like a flock of harpies. Maybe have sub par tech, rely on one or two things and be close friend with the other socialist nation.
