Yea, so what do you think of the fact that the Americans and the Chinese are the best when it comes to long-distance living in space due to the fact that beaten to the moon by the Germans and Russians, the Chinese Imperial Space Agency and the National Aeronautics and Space Agency turned their attention to creating the best space stations in the world and the longest time spent in space for a single person is held by Michael Foale, who was in space for 857 days and the longest stay by a woman in space is also held by an American, Eileen Collins, who was in space for 706 days, both on the Freedom space station. Also, so, what do you think was the biggest disaster of the space race? Was it when the Federation of Workers' Republics' "Union 14" mission to the moon crashed onto Earth after orbiting the Moon six times but not landing? Finally, so, what do you think of the cover of Decisive Darkness, which portrays four arrows with Russian, German, British, and American Flags pointed at France? Is it nice or not?

The book "Space Race to the Moon" states that the father of the FWR's space program called them "Cone coffins". Also, what country do you think has the best space program and why?

The Germans from operating from the Imperial space center in Peenemünde have the best space program, but to not tell that to the United States who believe they have the best space program in the world.

Yea, Britain on the other hand has arguably the worst space program in the world with ridiculously unsafe capsules and rockets. Also, so, what do you think of zeldaxlove64/Christina Grimmie's other timeline, "Britain under the Jackboot", which is a timeline where the "Whites", or the British Fascists, under J.F.C Fuller defeat both the "Reds" and the "Blues" (the Blues were basically the people loyal to Ramsay MacDonald's National Government) in the British Civil War of 1929-1933 instead of the Reds defeating the Blues and the Whites historically? It features the Quadruple Entente of Japan, Britain, France, and Italy being more successful and even taking Berlin for a few days before the Russians were able to counterattack and the war ends in a stalemate with the analogue to the Silent Conflict being between Democracy and Fascism instead of being between Democracy and Communism.

Yes, most of the British rocket scientists fled to Canada with the Blues when the Reds won the British Civil War and well, the Royal Commonwealth Space Program is in my opinion as good as China's space program, which both focus on quality over quantity IIRC. So, what do you think was the worst defeat inflicted by the Entente then on the allies?

So, what zeldaxlove64 timeline do you think is better? Decisive Darkness or Britain Under the Jackboot? Also, so, aside from the Union 14 incident, what do you think was the worst cock-up of the space race? Finally, with the fact that the Japanese Empire has voted to leave the Eurasian Economic Union, could Taiwan/Formosa vote again on whether to become part of China or remain Japanese as Taiwan/Formosa was a major center of the movement for Japan to remain in the EEU?

Also, so, aside from the Union 14 incident, what do you think was the worst cock-up of the space race? The Space Shuttle Challenger disaster and Space Shuttle Columbia disaster are two of the worst cock-up of the space race, the United States knew they had fault but they wanted to keep using the Space Shuttles becuase with out them they would fall behind the German and Russians in the race for space that even toady is very much alive and going strong. Finally, with the fact that the Japanese Empire has voted to leave the Eurasian Economic Union, could Taiwan/Formosa vote again on whether to become part of China or remain Japanese as Taiwan/Formosa was a major center of the movement for Japan to remain in the EEU? I think that Japan will give Taiwan/Formosa some more autonomy as they already have given to them, so i do not think that Taiwan/Formosa will leave the Empire of Japan to go to China where they will be one of the smallest imperial provinces. (OOC: so when are you planning on a new thread).

I liked the chapter of Britain under the Jackboot where the Fascist bloc collapses under it's own weight instead of liberalizing like the Communist bloc did historically with differing results with Britain making a relatively smooth transition to democracy when the military refused to shoot protestors but France is embroiled in a near-nuclear civil war between the democrats and the Fascists and zeldaxlove64 also declared soon after the post her real identity. Also, so, when do you think was Red victory in the British civil war inevitable? Finally, so, what do you think is a bigger threat to the world? Democratic Tawantinsuyu, the National Republic of Nigeria, or the People's Republic of Burma?

The People's Republic of Burma is the biggest thread, did you know there are more than 20 rebel groups in that country fighting not only each other but also the Burmese government, that is not including the three major reitance movements that are going on in Burma occupied Thailand, Laos and Cambodia, all of them are in some way or form organized and aided by the Empire of Vietnam and the empire of Russia.

Yes, Burma may be a crazy totalitarian dictatorship with nuclear weapons but one could argue that it is a paper tiger due to the insurgencies within Burma's borders and India is also backing rebel groups in Burma IIRC, mainly ethnic-seperatist ones in the north as well, same for China, but they also back rebels in Laos due to China's border with Laos. Also, what do you think of the fact that the Milice in Decisive Darkness, in addition to the Milice Divisions, now have "representatives" in every French Army division (OOC: Basically a cross between the Nazi Flying Execution Squads that plagued Germany during the last days of the war and a Soviet Political Commissar) along with other draconian measures the Salan Regime implements to prevent surrenders to the Allies?

Everybody around Burma is backing rebels in Burma these days, i think i once heard the United States OSS even supports, trains and equips a rebel group there as the United States wanted not to be left out.

What do you think then of the fact zeldaxlove64 makes it clear that draconian measures by the Salan Regime, far more than any amount of propaganda about defending la Patrie is what's keeping the French from surrendering en masse in "Decisive Darkness" like the Milice "representatives" in the army's divisions who could override the commander and could execute anyone without trial for "desertion" and "defeatism" along with orders to destroy any town which tries to surrender to the allies and the families of those who surrender to be imprisoned (in practice, this applied mainly to senior officers of a level of Major or above who surrendered)?
