The Tsar received The Priminster with a smile and a firm hand, "Good Afternoon Sir," he said, "And the pleasure is all mine," looking behind him to see if the rest of the delegations had arrived he furrowed his eyebrows, instead of dwelling ok that though he went to shake the hand of the other official that had accompanied the Priminister, "You must be the Minister of the armed forces, it's an honor to meet you." turning around to look at the other pilots he ordered two to stay on the ground to receive the other delegations and to call for more hornets if they brought guests with them. The airmen nodded to their Tsar and continued to check their birds, "care for a flight, Priminister Wilde?" asked Voltus, "Minister McRagear, if you would not mind, could you join airman Feniker in his hornet." the Tsar pointed to the Gyrokopter to the right of his. Walking around he climbed into his cockpit and did the system checks before turning on the motors, they spun to life instantly, the electric motors not needing nearly as much time to start up as a conventional engine. Slipping his headphones on he called overwatch, "Overwatch, this is Blue-gold, do you copy over?" "Blue-gold, this is Overwatch, e copy and you are clear to be recieved up here." said a radio operator from the other side of the transmittion, turning around Voltus yelled over the sound of the chopping blades, "Priminister Wilde, if you would please board the back seat and put on the headphones, I'd appreciate it!" as he finished yelling the other hornet thrummed to life and both were primed for take off.

That doesn't sound like economic numbers from WWII equivalent time periods.

@Zurajai

Malassakian GDP is 680 billion (1990 dollars). Split 75%-25% home islands colonies. The abundant 150+ million powers, assuming everyone should have similar GDPs to prevent unipolarity, should either accept lower standards of living or reduce their populations.

@So Boerd

Apologies, i was working off prices and GDP of 2013.

The Dawn of Tomorrow's World(A Dieselpunk Nation Roleplay)

Crunched the numbers, it would cost me USD 338,000,000,000. However if I put my country as somewhere between Brazil and France (nominal GDP), I earn USD 2,525,143,000,000. So yes it will be sizable spending and it will Hirt but it won't destroy us.

Geez. Can Ventium actually afford all that it's offering? Seems like an incredible undertaking.

@AspenIvan

We've done it before to our selves, it's a massive undertaking yes but to live in a friendly future you must make it. Plus- after we've been locked away for a long time, we accumulated a lot of wealth. Just don't expect anymore spending of that size for a while.

Present Day (2 days ago?), Overwatch. Voltus was sat in the meeting room, looking through some documents when a young airman knocked on the door and proceeded to enter. "Pardon my intrusion Your Majesty, but the new charts have been drawn up and the cartographers would like to enquire if they are to your liking." Voltus raised an eyebrow, pushing his papers a side, he ushered for the airman to come closer and over the rolled up chart, taking it from his gloved hand, the Tsar unrolled it and looked through it. The scale looked suitable, the paper seemed it was hardy and the ink was easily visible, however he furrowed his brows when he saw something new to him, "This wasn't in the old charts," he said pointing at the map, "that's part of Irodia." the airman leaned in and gave the same confused look. "well we have been locked away for a very long time, send for more information on this Cyzin Federation."  The soldier had returned with a pile of paper and put it on the conference table, leaving the Tsar to his studying he left the room. Sighing Voltus began with the first paper, "here we go." he muttered. Telegram to The Cyzin Federation of Xuloa.

Talis, my offer?

@Voltus_Ventus

Hah, you'll have to do better than that. I didn't throw off the colonial oppression of one faction just to shackle myself again. Give me a good offer, or I'll go get cuddly with the NFRU.

@Talis

What do you want? I'll omit vassalship if that's what you want.
