You don’t know which country, its random.
You cannot leave this island, you cannot end your life, you cannot abdicate your position.
Your country is immune from military attacks for 10 years, its literally impossible. There’s a magic force field protecting the entire island and the entire airspace up to 41,000 ft (max civillian flight level) and 12 nautical miles sorrounding the island. Enemy military are unable to enter.
You cannot get kidnapped or killed or like fall into a coma, or anything of the sort, you have plot armor for these 10 years. Any assassination attempts will magically fail.
Your population does not have plot armor they can die.
The enemy can send spies.
You get to choose the location of your island at the start. Things spawn in, and has a random amount of development of an average developing country, history, culture is randomly filled in and backdated. Everyone speaks your most fluent language and is literate.
You have zero nukes.
Climate change make you a tasty target. You’ll be less affected than equatorial shores int terms of sea level rise and your climate is warming. Why do you think Greenland is being targeted by the US right now? Because the US military is planning for global warming across the globe.
Sea levels rise the same everywhere. And not in 10 yrs it won’t.
They don’t. Rise at the equator is slightly more due to the same reason the Earth bulges at the equator: centripetal force. The already-elevated sea level plays into the gravitational baseline at sea level, so gravity is 0. 5% weaker there than at the poles. The tides are also typically more aggressive at the equator and will only get worse, since it’s in the plane of the moon’s orbit.
The rules say you’re going to be attacked. Surely, the victor will hold the land for decades. Why not try to take it now first before the rest of the planet is desperate?
Okay, fair enough.
I fail to see the distinction. By OPs prompt, we’re getting attacked no matter what once his plot armor expires.
