Influence and manipulate - Declare wars and sign peace treaties, make pacts and alliances - Guarantee the independence of your allies, force someone into vassalage, or simply insult your opponents (as seen on TV) - Get rich by trading with the big shots of global politics or choke your opponents with economic sanctions - Drag your allies into international conflicts: the more, the deadlier! Crush and rule - Wipe out your enemies with a deadly array of military forces—from infantry to nuclear bombs - Rule the seven seas with cruisers, battleships, and aircraft carriers - Protect your land with fortresses and other defensive infrastructure - Despise the laws of warfare using a chemical or nuclear weapon Expand and thrive - Progress through the technology tree to discover a wide variety of buildings and structures - Choose one of half a dozen political regimes, and make political decisions that might change the course of history - Control each province of your country independently to ensure an economic and scientific breakthrough Website: https://warnament.com Discord: https://discord.gg/WwfsH8mnuz X: https://x.com/WarnamentGame
