Fellow players of ModernPowers, there is a serious issue that must be addressed in our game.
As you know, our friend @PM_ME_YOUR_ARCHES is playing Iceland.
Iceland is a modern, Western nation...
But there is a very big, underlying issue.
I speak, of course, of Elves.
Belief in Elves is absurd to most people, but not in Iceland.
From the Wikipedia article on the Huldufólk:
"A 2006 rerun of Erlendur Haraldsson's 1975 survey by Erlendur and Terry Gunnell[22] found that "There is a little bit more doubt than there used to be, but generally the figures were much the same as they were." [63] Sontag summarises its results: "8.0% of 650 persons [...] were certain about the existence of huldufólk and álfar, 16.5% thought it was likely they existed, 31.0% assumed it was possible, 21.5% thought it was unlikely, 13.5% thought it was impossible and 8.5% did not have an opinion on this."[64]"
Clearly, @PM_ME_YOUR_ARCHES has yet to address the problem of Elves in Iceland. I urge him to broach this sensitive topic.

[M] Goddammit, the title of the post had me worried.
The existence of elves in Iceland is currently uncertain, and should not be seen as a problem. We find it worrying that the Philippines is so quick to judge an entire race of creatures like this, the fact that you call this a "sensitive topic" only shows your ignorance and we feel that your blatant racism is the only "big, underlying issue" in this discussion. We are especially saddened to hear this hate speech from our neighbour @Greenland, shame on you, we only acted like we liked you because you were under Denmark's protection anyway, óviðkomandi skít land!

So, that's how you wan't to play ball, is it neighbor? Consider us at war! My military has been dispatched, and will arrive at your shores immediately. You have no army, so we could take Reykjavik even if we didn't have polar bears. Dette er nu den nye # 1 sang på den grønlandske radio!
[M] to be clear it's meta, I'll just say that my military doesn't even have polar bears, it is non existant

[M] Hahahaha, I should make that my new national anthem. I think it might need a few more lyrics though
Iceland will crush you so hard, you'll be more fucked up than a pair of Polish diplomats at the Radisson Blu.

We see right through your bullshit, Iceland. Everyone knows you just want to keep all the Elves for yourselves.

[M] @PM_ME_YOUR_ARCHES Liechtenstein is unable to send help at this time due to our war with the dwarves of the Alp Mountains.

Elves are heretics! We support China in that thing they said!

[M]You fools! your inability to act has allowed the elven menace to spread to England, where they're becomingProfessional wrestlers!

Although not an ally, North Korea sees the elves as 2spooky4us. We shall send over our best Starvation and Parades units at once!

@PM_ME_YOUR_ARCHES Argentina will collaborate with 50 of its best commando penguins.

@PM_ME_YOUR_ARCHES Greenland is ready to mobilize it's entire military fleet of three polar bears to combat the rising problems of Elves in Iceland.
