"Fasces, you need Han Fei as well. Him and Lee Kuan Yew would be the cornerstones of what I deem Fasces349's ideal state."
never heard of Fei
"You also need to get rid of Rommel, he was only good as a divisional general, not in any higher military post"
I know, but I still want to honour his name.
"An oligarchy...not my idea of a good government, a Republic with the braches we have today and balanced, strong Legislative and Executive bodies is the best form of government in my view, but it IS your state..."
One man can't be trusted with absolute power. So give multiple people that system.
"Quite a few big names on that list...but will the room be big enough for Thatcher, Chuchill, Victoria, AND The Virgin Queen herself? XD"
:D
"WHY on Earth would YOU, Mr. Fascism and "we must restrict and regulate," want John Locke as a Founder?"
Anything wrong with Liberalism?
"If EVER there was a person who I woul've surely opted for Machiavelli or Thomas Hobbes...why Locke?"
Not Machiavelli cause I haven't read the Prince, but it is one of the books I am studying in school next year (next year starting in a week) so we will talk then. Not Hobbes because I am anti-centralization.
Locke because I am a supporter of freedom of expression.
"Freedom of Voting for the masses, and that's the ULTIMATE Free Speech."
Freedom of Expression =/= Freedom of voting.
You are entitled to your own opinion. But it doesn't mean politics should give a shit about it.
"Does anyone think they have a President/Military combo to beat Churchill/Eisenhower/Lee/Napoleon?"
Your joking right? I would place Genghis Khan/Subutai over your combo any day of the week.
Just look at the battles Subutai fought against China, Kiev, Khwarezmia, Poland and Hungary.
And with Fletcher and LeMay, the ones most responsible for America winning the pacific war you wouldn't last a chance in any naval warfare.
Your men relied on the communications technology of the modern world.
Imagine receiving orders for battle months in advance, carrying them out and winning as a result of the tactics used in those orders. Orders that weren't changed once, because said general was busy fighting Hungary and your orders concerned invading Poland.
Now imagine what said general could have done if he had the luxury of the radio and telephone.
(this general, encase you were wondering, is Subutai. Hands down the greatest general of all time)
As for Lee and Napoleon. They lost, granted Lee was the only reason CSA got as far as it did, but he still lost.
Subutai, was the second in command of a force of 60,000 soldiers who successfully invaded a nation of 120 million people. They were outnumbered, with inferior weapons (Crossbow vs Bow, Stallion vs Pony), inferior armour (All their following campaigns used Chinese armour) and walls (while lacking the necessary siege equipment at the beginning)
