And if i had to choose, i would choose the UK. I already have some understanding of our political system and i'm too much of a patriot to choose another country

Will you be ruling with a shotgun? Cookie to you if you know what I'm talking about.

Actually my policy will be to ward off potential illegal immigrants with Molotov cocktails, or you know by just literally kicking them off as soon as they get on.

Sealand actually has a pretty impressive collection of superweapons with which to defend the nation's borders. However, most visitors just mistake it for the shoe closet. :p

Seriously though? Probably a small island nation so it's not too complicated. I've got no President-ing experience so I need to practise.
Good idea. I'm shipping you off to Skull Island. You aren't allowed to bring chloroform after those pesky animal rights activists got angry after the event of King Kong. Other than that though, it will be pretty easy as there is a population of 1 being you.

My own Presidancy would have to be run in Ireland, my home country. Why? Because our President seems to live pretty OK.

IIRC, according to international law, whoever spends two full consecutive weeks on another stellar body is the legal owner of that stellar body. Needless to say, I keep dreaming of going to Mars with a full supply of water, air and microwave pizzas. (And preferably also an ansible, so I can connect to the internet. :p)

Germany didn't start WW1.
It's possible to debate this endlessly. In a sense, everyone involved (except the US, who joined later as always - bunch of truants :p) was responsible for the start of the war, it's just a question of who bears greater responsibility. And once you look at that, Germany shares the largest part of the guilt, but not the majority part. Europe was headed for disaster anyway after nationalism became all the rage in the early nineteenth century. But that's another matter.
I blame the Austrian Arch-Chancellor who set up the series of Alliances in Europe that led to the war. Sadly his name escapes me at the moment.

I'd like to be president of Russia.

I would rename country to "Zhe Gluorious Ruassian Empajr".

Some small banana republic nation where I, as El Presidente, in my infinite wisdom build amenities, houses and production facilities to further our economic goals and then, do what banana republics always do - Try To Take Over the World!

Well, to use D&D alignment terms, people who want to be the president of a government are invariably lawful evil, and I consider myself somewhat chaotic good, therefore putting me in polar opposition to any presidential candidate.

I think I'll pass.

Some place where chickens would still count as a decent means of currency.

"You're poor you say? Here's a coop full of chickens."

This is definitely a clear indication I would make a bad president. XD

The UK seeing as I have to live here. I could at least make things better for myself, if not everybody else.

I think you mean Bismarck, who was pretty much the definition of the late-nineteenth-century Prussian Junker (pronounced YOON-ker, doesn't have anything to do with those junk collectors so prolific in sci-fi games). Unless you're referring to Metternich, but I don't really see how he is directly responsible for WWI. Otherwise, you'd be saying that Napoleon was responsible for WWI. You could make a case for it, but it'd be very shaky and vague.

Anyway, let's continue this discussion in another thread. I don't check these forums very often, so if someone does, drop me a PM and I'll be happy to engage the lot of you in historical debate.
