merchants

[born2dive67]

Is it possible to do something like this with merchants? Make them work with the current diplomatic relations of differing country's like this for example?

Allied: no possible acts against

neutral and trade agreement: take overs do not kill merchants but do push them off that resource and vice versa, dependent as merchant experience and takeovers work now

War: hostile takeovers do kill merchants as vanilla has it



just curious if this can be done?

Just a question my friend...
Do you know what the frace "trade rights" means?
I think...that your resourses are open for the one you made the agreement with and his merceants....:hmmm:

Basically, yes. Trade Rights essentially remove tariffs and competition between countries.

EDIT: In TW, however, it seems to mean you need trading rights before you can trade at all (something that is utterly incorrect, and can only really be enforced in the old USSR, Cuba, and N Korea, certainly not a medieval kingdom!)

The best modern example I can think of is the North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which creates easy, accessible trade between USA, Canada, and Mexico.

...and establishes groundwork for a North American Union.

I hope you were joking, because I can assure you USA is not going to open their border to Mexicans. They may try (and succeed) to annex Canada, but it's not going to happen unless they are really desperate for our bountiful supply of water, as that would really mar their relationship with both other NATO countries and the International Community alike (not to mention we won't go down passively...)

A.) Bush already signed it into agreement(without congressional or public approval) for starters, and
B)Lou Dobbs(CNN reporter) reported on it as well.
C)NATO has as much control over US actions as the league of nations had over Nazi Germany's.
D)Consider the current administrations total dismissal of the US's immigration laws.
E)North American Union impossible? Then explain how the European Union, African Union and soon to be Asian Union all exist or will soon? What, North America is the only country that will remain untouched by corporate interests and banking cartels? Please dude they already run the country.

If your wondering why it's not common knowledge, consider the fact fact that nearly all cable tv channels are owned by 5 major corporations. 4 of which donated around 2 billion to get GW bush elected. It's real dude. Do some research and get ready to exchange your dollars for Ameros.

The comparison works...but I dislike the comparison the Nazi Germany...

Asian Union? The Asian Cooperation Dialogue can be hardly called that.

All these organizations in any case aren't trying to mush together the countries of their respective continents the way anti-NAU advocates try to push the idea of the NAU.

The trump card against the NAU is Mexican immigration, and Central and South American Immigrants who travel North via Mexico to USA.

Regardless of Bush's immigration policies, his time is just about over.

Already run the country? God, this is sounding more and more like a conspiracy theory every moment. If corporations run the country, that is only because the majority of us are in corporations, and because USA & Canada are Capitalist.

5 major corporations? Let hear them.

Let's also see some links. I want to see proof to what you're saying (and please not that 20 minute bull powerpoint, b/c I've already seen that). Despite what you may believe, this is not common knowledge, and I think for good reason (namely because it's bullocks )

If that were to happen I think you might see droves of people moving into the mountains and becoming Guerrillas.. We would make every yank pay in blood for every square meter of land. Alternantly.. we could just blow up the power stations and poison the water wait a few days then march to washinton and burn the White house down Again... ** remembering 1812 fondly **
