Liberating Arabia for Oil - Iron Harvest: Operation Eagle Coop

  • I saddle up with Simpkin and Orcus and ride out to bring American values to the world like freedom, democracy and you giving us your oil. Been waiting for a full and proper DLC to Iron Harvest for a while, and the game is still great fun to play. Wish more RTSs were made these days.

      One of the most important roles that the Founding Fathers laid out for the federal government to fulfill was protecting the private property of American citizens, when foreign powers start expropriating American property our government is obligated to act on our behalf in defense of our property rights. I'm not saying I approve of American imperialism and our wars for strategic control of middle eastern oil and all that, but if Rusviet was stealing *my* shit up in Alaska I'd expect the government to do something about it.

The phrase just means sometimes it's better to do what you need to without asking for approval, first, and then deal with the consequences of that once you're done. In the case of this cutscene, the idea is they'd never get permission to deploy in the middle east if they asked for it, so they'll do it secretly, and, assuming their mission is successful, the result will be so good that their superiors won't be too mad about it.

      Usonia is a different USA. Very similar timelines though, as Usonia did expand westward, and still went to war with Spain.
      Key differences though is that Usonia maintained a heavier degree of isolationism than its real world counterpart. It didn't buy Alaska from Russia, and didn't intervene in the first world war.
      And if Iron Harvest's description is to be taken at face value, it is also exceedingly more tolerant, as Usonia will treat all citizens as first class citizens no matter who they are. Even allowing them to keep their culture, religion, and other ties from their homeland as long as they swear loyalty first and foremost to Usonia.

As well as treated various other races and what have you as second class citizens. Hell, one of the main factors why we gave up our possession over the Philippines was because our senators both Dem and Rep. Pushed for laws to ban or at least limit Filipino immigrants, (don't ask me why they couldn't do this while in possession of the Philippines I do not want to get the book out.).
