Chapter 285: Global Reactions to Bulgaria's Surrender



To say that the global reactions to the ongoing war, or at least among those independent nations, were wildly varied was an understatement to the say the least. In its efforts to maintain neutral and not provoke either faction, the United States had begun a process of self-reliance.

God had blessed the American people with a land that held virtually everything they needed to be self-sufficient. It was probably one of the few countries in world history that could say such a thing without needing to form an empire of some kind.

Russia was another, but for reasons which only God could explain, they had never been able to collectively get their shit together. Vodka played a major role in this, but there were plenty of other reasons to be sure.
