Spoiler: map that shows actual might of countries (click to show/hide)

Beautiful. And shows why Russia is doomed to fail in a new cold war. That is why Russia will choose hot war... Illogical? Yep. But this is Russia ruled by megalomaniac schizophrenic

[Dutchling]

how did they calculate might?

[Loud Whispers]

Is this map from before or after Italy and Spain had their economies tank?

[smjjames]

Greece seems a bit on the large side.

Also, source? I did follow the image link to configuretheworld.com, but the site is rather bare bones and I can't get to wherever you're linking that from.

Edit: Found it. http://configuringtheworld.com/indicators/gdp-and-trade/ It's the GDP, not military might, if that's what you thought it was.

It looked Terribly wrong to me, I was staring at it thinking, "yeah the US and russia seem to be about right but something;s not right...
What is it? Oh wait, where is china?"
Then it hit me, The big red communist one was china, I keep forgetting Russia has a silly stripey flag now :/

[Descan]

What's that little country north of NK and China? I don't think there are any countries north of those two, it's just Russia, isn't it? :?

Mongolia

I also notice that Sudan is still one country.

Belgium is of relevant.

Soon in Ukraine 

[Guardian G.I.]

When every mention of the invasion is greeted with nothing but vitriol and rehashed propaganda and blatant astroturfing, yeah, it's a bit warranted to tell them to take it to fiction-based topic.

Do you really believe that anti-American posts in this thread are written by KGB agents?

Because clearly he was talking about you and not about the confirmed Russian nationals taking place in all those protests in East Ukraine.  This forum is serious bsns.

He was talking about astroturfing in this thread, not Eastern Ukraine.

I like when I post here about he Russian invasion because the Putinites immediately respond with nothing of substance, as I figured. We really need a Russian propaganda Euro topic. This one is literally not close to factual discussion about the crisis.

I don't read your nonsensical responses. Make a propaganda topic. This one should be about discussion of Euro issues and this Russian invasion without AstroTurfing the entire time, thanks.

I'm one of those people who actually gives a damn when a nation is going out of its way to murder people. This topic has been nothing but astroturfing and hand waving. It's an invasion, sorry, there isn't two sides. Russia is attacking a sovereign nation and terrorizing its citizenry while Europe in all its splendor sits back and tells Ukraine to chill out, man, it's not like a problem or anything it'll get resolved.

He was aiming it at Sergarr & as much as I disagree with what he says, I'd rather be able to read his oppinions then have him be told to f'off.

Sometimes there is too much in the thread for me to keep up.
