For the EU my speculation would be Qatar. They have taken over for the loss of Russian natural gas with their large LNG exports. Qatar also seeks to mediate a lot of the issues see them housing Hamas & their agenda setting with their state-funded Al Jazeera. After that they probably don't want to risk having their flagged vessels subject to a swarm of drones like US & UK endured.

As exposed by the Hershel Walker fraud is that candidates bypass GOP state parties & mostly just work between their funds & Super PACs. Super PACs use to limit coordinating activities from red-boxing but now they pretty much have little to no barrier between them.
I like the local political party structure but most people don't. Their heydays were before the increases in political primaries before 1968. States like Iowa as well as Florida & Tennessee retain some control between slating candidates & state/local parties but voters tend to dislike it when they see Florida only nominate one candidate(the only one to reach out to them & have people at convention).
They might be the remedy some situations such as precinct worker recruitment & absentee ballot awareness but with how GOP & RW groups hijack the system it might be going the way of the dino. We see both Democrats & GOP mostly operate from a candidate focused style instead of democratic federalized local/state based consensus building.
Kind of odd since we have better tools of communicating with each other & operating things asynchronously yet pre-revolutionary war era Americans could easily stand up local chapters & report back to larger district assemblies.
Old pander bear must have finally saw a revolt when the dum dum left started abandoning him.
Crazy to know that millions of Ukrainians are refugees in America & Europe yet there is no desire for neighboring countries to offer any refugee options for Palestinians. Guess none of their neighbors want to risk a repeat of Lebanon & Kuwait.
I'm following this project for sure. Glad to see developers making the switch.
Thanks for sharing this.
A lot of time people just want to ignore aspects like this unlike with most other conflicts.
By the time I learned about tape drives the small local sears had already liquidated everything & I wasn't smart enough to figure out mail order yet. Also, Later on I just wanted the new stuff for Windows 95 and better games. Wish I had loved that old tech more back then.
After just figuring out a little BASIC, I learned some DOS commands and thought changing all the file names to something juvenile was funny. It was on our family Tandy PC and it wasn't well received. My older sister still brings it up. Similar boat since I didn't back anything up and had to reinstall DOS 3.30. Didn't do anything as cool as you and update it much further.

You know Seychelles, this tall and about that big. Known for their naval prowess & huge commitment to the free navigation of trade.
Buffalo (Buffalo Billion) funded a deal with the Solar City to make panels & they outfit couldn't make a customer appealing panel color or compete with the quickly dropping price of Chinese imports. Even after Telsa took over his cousins operation they had the same trouble when even trying to adapt it to roof tiles so to satisfy the obligation for employment numbers they just had workers improve their Mapping systems.
