The Bloodless Coup was, in this timeline, very much not bloodless. In fact, it was a bloody, drawn-out civil war in which thousands died from each side, devastating the country.
However, due to keen and, importantly, uncorrupted leadership and smart economic measures, the country quickly rebounded, with some enthusiasts speaking of a "Minor Economic Wonder" happening in the SDR.
The main thing that surprised many, and led the country to become a leader in East-Africa, was the uprising of culture, art, religion, customs, and identity in a coherent harmony with humanist and progressive views. Other countries suffer from their Imperialist Past and the scars inflicted upon them, like Kongo, South Africa, and more, but the SDR is walking toward a bright future for its people, who believe that they can create a country to be genuinely proud of.

These are actually people we want to befriend because they have an absolutely *chef kiss* strategic location. Great for space launch, right on the Gulf of Aden. One of the future Orbital Ring countries for sure.

Yeah, with both of these together, we should really befriend these guys and make sure they don't get fucked over by other nations or circumstance. Also their Cultural revolution would be a great boon to our Movie making efforts, would let us add a great new flavor to our stories.

Ah yes. The gender trinity of diplomacy: Enboys, Engirls, and Enbys.
Can you explain to me what exactly those are? since I've heard the term in the Tyrantsverse thread and I only heard about it in that thread and this thread

Enby is from my experience a shortening of the word nonbinary.
- Pronouns
- She/Her
The etymology goes something like this:
Non-Binary
NB
Enby
It's a phonetic pronounciation of NB.
Edit: To be clear: Enboys and Engirls aren't a thing, that's just me making fun of HeroCooky's spelling mistake.

For the broken Rome I am talking about Magoose's Rome quest
Do we have trade set up or do we need to take an action? Low pop + lots of food and NZ would be actively looking to sell, means we can have a very beneficial relationship.

Unfortunately, they are on the other side of the divide, so trading with them won't be feasible.

So operation rainbow serpent, is that named after the one from Aboriginal Australian mythology?
Not to argue too much as it is your quest, but NZ had trade with Peru and Chile at this time, both countries had a military dictatorship.
NZ at this time was hit hard by their major trading partners putting quotas on food imports (UK,USA)
I won't argue more.
Indeed!
I'm surprised that wen as well as it did!
Once I saw the tsunami I knew it'd be a cluster-duck! This was better than expecting.

I don't think it sounds as stepping on the GM's toes if your bring up relevant information like this - nobody can know everything. Having said that, were Peru and Chile communist? I know the CIA just did a regime change in Chile.

That I don't know, I'm coming from a NZ needs trade perspective.
NZ got stiffed hard by their big allies (small who cares attitude) in a few years NZ will go from pretty socialist to full free market sell all state assets (even discussed selling the roads) as trade deficit started to hurt.
NZ is at this time reaching out to everyone close, SEA, Japan, the south pacific islands and South America, major trade goods is wool, mutton, a growing dairy industry.
So while NZ is aligned with the west, it started looking out for itself post war. I.E has ambassadors with China in 1972.
NZ's focus is on developing the pacific, heavily involved in the UN and I think would be a good friend if we went and said hello.
There is a cool document on stats nz I got this info from. Official yearbook 1975 a good read if your interested.
