I more or less agree. It's just that I think there's a rather big difference between the way the Cosmic Era shows depict politics and the way it depicts battles. For me, the approach for the former makes quite a bit of sense even if the latter is very much lacking.

Do you mean the way the United States was quite isolated from European affairs for the majority of its existence? PLANT doesn't exactly have any neighbors, and a gap caused by a huge gravity well and 300,000km of empty space is much greater than that of a few thousand kilometers of ocean. Besides, PLANT has plenty of domestic problems to deal with - problems that don't have much to do with foreign affairs.

In any case, my statement was a response to the claim that Lacus somehow "completed her power grab and controls the Earth Sphere now". This is a rather extraordinary assertion, and I'd expect some sort of extraordinary evidence for it.
