Off the Record / Re: The Off Topic Topic
Last post by Josquius - May 27, 2025, 09:12:41 AMI've thought of it. The issue is where. The US dominates the global economy. Japan is mentioned and I do have some stake there but... Haway.
I do need to shift my pension elsewhere at some point though so it's a consideration.

If foreigners reduce investment in the US, the dollar will be pulled down, and that will cause the current account to tilt more to the US. If the dollar actually was dethroned as the world's reserve currency, the effect would be accelerated.
Not good for America, or the American economy, but it will help make the trade deficit numbers look better, which is all DJT cares about.
It's like watching a new football coach who has decided the only thing that matters is gross punting yards. The top QB and star pass rushers are all traded for strong punters. All offensive drives must be halted at midfield because otherwise it will negatively impact punting yard averages.

That'll be a key area where things are hard to manage, hierarchies being less single* and often very slack.
The mandala system in se asia is particularly alien and would need something completely different to model it.
*though that was one think ck3 failed to fix from earlier games. Lords with multiple overlords were a thing.
