Peace, Order and Good Government

Hmmm... might be considered a force to be reckon with, or not. Click on the image below and judge for yourself.

Well? What do you think? In my opinion, being a country that keeps such a low profile, we should take into consideration an imminent Canuck invasion. But I do feel more worried about Switzerland. Appropiate measures will be taken.

Concept

Global Conquest: “An ambitious goal in which one government, one ideology or belief system, or even one person, seeks to secure complete political or military control of the entire planet. It can be considered the extreme form of global hegemony.”

Though it is debatable if a planet as complex and diverse as Earth could ever be successfully "dominated" by a single central authority in this way, the concept of global domination has long been a popular theme in both history and fiction. And history will be made to overcome fiction… you just sit back and await the inevitable.

Tools For Domination practice…


If you are one of the 73.9% of people misguided by the title… no, it’s not about S&M tools. Making this clear I invite you to keep reading, if you suddenly lost interest then move along please and do not waste anymore time. Because like John Milton once said “time is the subtle thief of our youth”… ooops, sorry I got carried away.
Risk, Command and Conquer, Evil Genius… among others, can be considered valuable tools for practice and skill honing. Hell, even Monopoly (if u wanna take over the world a property at a time). As simple as that, just go to a game store and be the geek ruler of a scaled-down Earth (or Train Stations and Hotels)… remember, everything takes a step. The full scale scenario will arrive, just gotta be patient. Practice, practice, practice and soon those brave little plastic or pewter figures will become lethal combat war battalions whose enemies tremble at their very presence.
And please by all means let’s try to become familiar with futuristic weaponry and defense… seriously, we don’t want any alien race taking over the planet we fought so hard for.

Global conquest race

Earth’s unavoidable subjugation is but a race. Us, the infamous competitors, must train, plan, gather intel, *play RPG’s, eat healthy (we wanna live to see it done, right?), cut grass to stock enough rupees… but most importantly: know how to use Google and Microsoft services for they are the strongest opponents out there. So learning about our enemy with the tools they provide to control us is the way to go! Do you really think Google Earth is something for us to play with and pin point our house, neighborhood or places we’ll never afford to visit? NO… I mean… think about it, the name implies their true intentions. And they have the nerve to use it instead of something more discreet like: Google GPS tool, or whatever. So attention all you plotting minds, heed my advice because knowing your rivals forges the path to triumph… and successful business agreements.
By the way if you are going to use Gil instead of Rupees be aware of the exchange rate:

1 Rupee = 11.7 Gil (current exchange rate provided by the Bank of Ivalice branch at Hyrule)


*We can also play First Person Shooters, because you never know when you are going to need those skills and well, we all see in “first person” view… duh!

Si caes de rodillas...

... que sea para meditar y no para rendirte!

About global warming...




Unlike most world domination - hungry villains we see in movies or read on books (that want to rule the earth by destroying it [and thats 87% of the times according recent "evil lord surveys"]), our approach should be more intelligent. What good is Earth without its animals and plants... without the snow, rain or sleet... without the landscapes forged by the hand of Mother Nature, rivaled only by its own perfect complexity.
Selfishness drives mankind to its downfall. Lets think more about the original habitants of this planet and our descendants, and less on our mindless ambition for wealth. We dont need a few species of animals, we need all of them.
One thing is certain... we will pay the price with our lives. So lets try to do our best and contribute to diminish Global Warming! It's your responsability and mine!



P.S. : "El Niño" Sucks!!!
