How would you conquer the world?

[SilverUchiha]

you don't need a massive amount of brute force to take over the world. That's so primitive and silly. I like to look back at classic super-villains and see how they almost accomplished such a feat as ruling over an area or the world itself.

An example I like to use is Shishio from RuroKen. He planned to plunge Japan back into Anarchy and chaos after the peace had started post Tokugawa wars. He wanted to rise up from that Anarchy as Japan's new leader. So, it's simple. Plunge the world into total chaos and anarchy. There are MANY ways to do this ranging from nukes in every major world city (not hitting them, just hidden in them) to a global-scale EMP. Without our tech, people will likely panic. Maybe unleash a new disease or revive an old one that we've forgotten about. From that anarchy, rise up and take the reigns of leadership. It's pretty simple and way more fun than financial take over or simply amassing a large army.

One step at a time....

#1: send agent down to mexico and have him start rebellion.

#2 after rebellion inevitably takes off, offer assistance in exchange for making them a state.

#3 after government is overthrown, open up silver mine(biggest and richest in the world, but is currently closed out of fear that people might *gasp* spread the wealth around) and trade with other countries for economic gain.

#4 put agent as governor.

#5 help clean up our economy(different subject).

#6 Ounce economy is stabilized, begin research on how to take advantage of the moon's helium3(enough energy to run earth for thousands of years).

#7 Help others and don't invade any more countries(except maybe canada, simply because of their lack of true military and possible economic gain from lumber and hunting industry, along with being a huge land gain and would make us impressive on the map.)

#8 ???

#9 Profit!(and lots of it)

I have conquered the world. What, you didn't notice? I really should advertise more often...

I'd take control of China and call in the outstanding debts of every country in the civilized world with the option of "Pay up, sucka!" or submit to my rule.

Then I'd combine my newly-acquired military forces and wipe out the Middle East, seize control of the oil assets there and establish economic control over the world.

Then I set forth the first phase of the master plan . . .

I would convince them that I had already taken over the world and that they've been under my particular leadership for years. Then once they accept that fact, it will be.

We practice selective annihilation of mayors and government officials, for example, to create a vacuum. Then we fill that vacuum as popular war advances, peace is closer.

Some time after the dot.com bubble, I considered creating an RTS makeover featuring Microsoft, Amazon and Google, each who had become formidable enough (in different ways) to endeavor world domination, on the presumption that they were so ambitious.

The expansion would add Apple to the mix.

Start a religion, using the tax free code to begin to collect large sums of money, which would in turn be used via intermediaries to begin the financial takeover of the world. I would also include a couple things about ensuring the removal of all opposition to my ways via fear, dominance, bribery, and plans to infiltrate the government.

Of course, I'd have to create something like the cult of Scientology to do any of that.

Start by simply winning an election in this country. Then start researching cloning in order to perfect human cloning, then i would clone Bear Grylls. Only so that my whole army could survive on insects.

When i have sufficient forces, launch an attack on USA, Russia, China, UK, France and Germany at the same time, the rest of the world would tremble.
