“People of Afghanistan. I make this new year’s address on the day, that modern states celebrate a new year, with hope for a better future. Our country only recently became independent, but enough has been happening. There is an immense task before us, the task to modernise Afghanistan, and to retain our independence amidst giants like the British Empire or what nowadays is called the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics.
Communism is a threat, crawling in through the doomed experiments of our Russian neighbour. Another political system is on the rise as well, based on racial superiority and bent on dominating their brethren. Europe may be far away, but we must remain vigilant against too much foreign influence. We must never allow such doctrines to permeate our society. We are all equal before God.
We have seen what destruction ambitious monarchs and presidents can deliver when they go on war, and how quickly people can be subjugated when they are not prepared to defend themselves. Only by following the path of modernisation, Afghanistan may be able to resist those ambitions of other state leaders. Faith and bravery alone will not be enough. Therefore, the government will start to educate our brightest minds in Basic Construction Engineering, so that we can invest in machines and factories, which will produce goods to improve the standard of living. We will continue our investments in education for the rural areas.
To be prepared for the outside world, we must look more towards the outside world. It may be hard, to relate that what you see in Bombay, Teheran or Moscow to the traditions of our people, but we may never turn a blind eye towards that. With the wisdom of our elders, the wisdom of the Q’uran, and with guidance of God (peace be with Him), we will remain a strong and free people. I wish you the best for, and may God be with you.”
As you may notice from the title, this is an AAR about Afghanistan. Because of my strategical prowess, I am afraid that any country I play will be annexed soon enough, which means I can easily start with the first country available, and continue up and until I reach Yunnan. It won’t help me that I play these DD games on Hard/Furious, either. The more I am mistaken about my assumption that these games will be short and bitter, though, the better.
Feel free to comment and suggest. I will edit this post with links to the various chapters.
