Have fun rebuilding your army first anglo

2019-09-17 17:07:17 UTC  

If there's one functioning institution any African country could focus on, it's the military lol

2019-09-17 17:07:32 UTC  

Either that or. O I L

2019-09-17 17:07:39 UTC  

Especially the Arabs up north

2019-09-17 17:08:22 UTC  

Isn't Ethiopia one of the strongest countries in Africa

2019-09-17 17:08:25 UTC  

Military wise

2019-09-17 17:08:28 UTC  

It's one of the stronger ones yeah

2019-09-17 17:08:29 UTC  

@Taddesse I'm not talking about invading africa rn tho. I'd invade after having a military built up.

2019-09-17 17:08:34 UTC  

Was in Top #5

2019-09-17 17:08:38 UTC  

Ethiopia is manpower spam lol

2019-09-17 17:08:42 UTC  

BASICALLY LMAO

2019-09-17 17:09:03 UTC  

Even as far back as the war with Somalia, Ethiopia had the ability to mobilize 4-5 million men

2019-09-17 17:09:14 UTC  

Hm, not sure how long that would take, first youd have to get power and keep it with the little military you got

2019-09-17 17:09:19 UTC  

Jesus

2019-09-17 17:09:26 UTC  

Sounds like total war

2019-09-17 17:09:32 UTC  

In that scenario, yeah lol

2019-09-17 17:09:37 UTC  

Both literally and video game wise

2019-09-17 17:09:44 UTC  

@Juan Filly building up a military doesn't take that long

2019-09-17 17:10:17 UTC  

Maybe if you have industry and resources, but havent most western nations kinda fucked that over long ago?

2019-09-17 17:10:31 UTC  

Ethiopia produces most of the equipment that the African Union's forces use

2019-09-17 17:10:41 UTC  

It's pretty much self-sufficient, industry and resources-wise

2019-09-17 17:10:58 UTC  

WHOOPS YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THE UK

2019-09-17 17:11:08 UTC  

We are.

2019-09-17 17:11:12 UTC  

My bad then lol

2019-09-17 17:11:15 UTC  

Carry on

2019-09-17 17:11:21 UTC  

@Juan Filly then get that back too. The soviet union indistrialized and militarized at the same time, very quickly over at most a decade

2019-09-17 17:11:26 UTC  

Ok then? Idk what the was about

2019-09-17 17:12:05 UTC  

You have to remember though they were able to do that due to the fact they had a shit ton of land and because of lack of prior industrialization shit tons of resources

2019-09-17 17:12:09 UTC  

Same with commie china

2019-09-17 17:12:34 UTC  

They started with shit so it was easier because they could get more shit faster and had more to start with

2019-09-17 17:13:00 UTC  

There's still plenty of steel in Britain. It really doesn't matter how long it take because no one would invade before it's done

2019-09-17 17:13:01 UTC  

*Also the USSR had 14 million trained reservists and an experienced officer corps to fall back on*

2019-09-17 17:13:13 UTC  

Englands kinda small compared to the USSR or china or even something like germany

2019-09-17 17:13:33 UTC  

Also has shit ton less overall unless you want to import

2019-09-17 17:13:49 UTC  

Also a western country actually has industry left?

2019-09-17 17:14:05 UTC  

Color me shocked

2019-09-17 17:18:58 UTC  

Britain managed to conquer some shit with what it has before

2019-09-17 17:21:21 UTC  

Wasn't this only when the natives were in the middle of a civil war and significantly lacking in modern arms

2019-09-17 17:22:03 UTC  

Either that or they used other native groups to do alot of the work for them

2019-09-17 17:22:09 UTC  

*India*
