France has wielded its naval power so well that it is well up inside the business of not one but two other players by the end of the third year.
From the very first year of the game, Austria-Hungry has seemingly done everything in its power to leap right into Russia's gaping maw.

The ruins of the Italian and Russian empires are now on display in the British Museum.
Craig rescues Bill from an ugly stalemate, and by doing so narrowly escapes elimination.
Bill, on vacation from conquering Europe, inspects the progress of his PEACEFUL, CIVILIAN nuclear program at an underground bunker in Natanz. If you think that I'm working too hard on my vacation, please note the comfy blue slippers.
