Antarctica

Let's start with the continent least affected by the hairless ape. This icy wonderland is bound to be resource rich and if humans live long enough will start tapping into it. The place is covered with busy scientists right now carrying out vital research which tells us we are in big trouble. Icebergs the size of Manhatten periodically break off and head out to sea. If the Chinese live long enough I am sure they will take great delight in slaying all living creatures there for the supper table or grind them into powder to give its wealthy a boner to be proud of.

I doubt we will return here too often, but it is on the map and does play a role. Let's hope it remains a paradise of sorts.

Introduction and the Rules

Welcome to my new blog.

In the search to find my platform in life I have decided to write about something that I am, more or less, always interested in. And that, having played games from the youngest age, am a great lover of strategy. Games of Risk spring to mind, Monopoly and that lost classic Trafalgar, which would see the board being hurled into the air and precious ships of the line cast across the room.

So, there we have it. Without further ado, I will attempt to capture the current feeling in the political world, and divide it up into it's continents, as I doubt I will ramble on for too long on any one subject. Hope you stay tuned, enjoy and comment...
