A more extremist regime that SK or China wouldn't tolerate prompting an invasion. It is either a unified Korea that invades Japan and attacks the rest of EA after 10 years of militarisation, or a pro-China SK and an eventual Chinese hegemony spanning the entire Asia.

In an aftermath, the priority would be rebuilding and spending money wisely. Nuclear power and Nuclear weapons would both be a waste of money for the rebuilding effort.

At 5MW and an old reactor with tech dated between those two references, not much damage I think. PM Gundamfan0083. He is a nuclear scientist.

A couple of NLOS munitions from an artillery gun or missile launcher should do the trick. The rest is up to the printing services in SK.

Iran is pretty well-armed. And without a single enemy, the generally Sunni-ruled Mideast would have crushed Israel then fought amongst themselves, jeopardising the entire world's crude oil flow. The next thing you know figurines are 100,000 yen each despite being the size of nendroids.
And being the only moderate, stupid Turkey is behaving like the British. Just chilling out and minding their own business and doing business with everyone despite their well-known and respected former glories beholding epic-sized empires across planet Earth. I can't understand why sensible states and people wash their hands in golden bowls and let morons take over them instead of smacking all these manchild institutions into behaving like adults. And from the News Stories thread : Quote:
It should be renamed as "Loli Love Liberation". Please support pertinent naming of exercises and operations.

NK blocks SK access to Kaesong industrial zone
There are still 861 South Korean workers in Kaesong. No word on whether DPRK is allowing them to leave.

Let me think. 54,000 workers * 144 * 12= 80 million + of direct wages, and estimated as much as 2 billion dollars worth of trade for NK. So while China get pilloried by the UN and the west for trading with NK all year long/watering down sanctions... why is SK allowed to provide as much as 1/5 of NK's GDP unscathed? |

There's also the fact that South Korea is big buddies with the USA, who are the main force behind the sanctions. The US isn't exactly gonna internationally criticize South Korea's policies for dealing with North Korea.

In either of these cases actual outright conflict will result in divided families and distant relatives potentially killing each other. This "link" will shrink over time though as generations die off, in particular the former case NK/SK due to travel restrictions. I wonder if the likelihood for actual war will actually increase over time rather than decrease (/wild speculation)

The Taiwan situation is different. Culturally we are closer to Japan than China, and when Chiang came he made a mess of the place. Generation of brainwashing couldn't make us hate Japan, and that's where the our loyalties lie today. Taiwan is scared of China, there is no brotherly love there.
