Lets push the advantage we had up north, we can befriend the soviets if we need external support later.

Pffft, the soviets are worthless at sea. Better to go to the axis: Those islands are OURS and NO-ONE can deny us that!

Well there is the fact that the US and UK are far closer to us and only the Japanese stand a chance of challenging those navies (and they failed historically), befriending the soviets we, by proxy, befriend the allies.

For goodness sake, let's try to get in good with the Soviets (aka don't invade their island). I get a feeling we're going to need it if Cannala leave their Allies island alone.

The soviets aren't going to do shit here, we're going to need to go with the Axis. Besides, they'll be more than happy to help get their drinking buddy back.

The axis will turn on itself if it wins, and if it loses we would have to convince the allies and soviets not to kill us.
We could look to Brazil or Sweden or Argentina for naval tech assistance without serious problems (Sweden may get attacked by Germany if they aren't neutral but then we would be helped by the allies), okay the fleets of those nations aren't as powerful as the axis or allied fleets but they are still much more than the Cannalan fleet.

Hey, we're a nation that thrives off of arms sales. If the axis turns against each other then we profit anyway! :P

I imagine that the outcome of WWII would be heavily determined by our actions, if we joined sides. It wouldn't make sense if joining the Allies means an automatic win if you just hold out till 1945.
Or we only form a loose alliance with whatever side we join, which we drop out of at the end of the war, regardless of who won, so that we can keep fighting the Cannalans.

Either way, I don't think joining the Axis would be mechanically significantly worse than joining the Allies or the Soviets.

If we did join the Axis, I would personally prefer it if we specify that it is an alliance of convenience only, and that we do not adopt a fascist government.

Not something for right now, but to appease... certain parties... who would really like us to develop rocket-based weaponry more, how about we start with a humble unguided missile barrage, like this:

Given that we already have rockets, it would probably only be Normal difficulty, giving us a nice introduction to the world of missiles.

How about we wait for the war to fully start before we invade the British?

Did you not see all the stuff I mentioned that gets cheaper?  Sooner we invade, the sooner we get all of it cheaper.
