You're forgetting that we're going to be putting former slaves and servants in power, and have probably already garrotted a good portion of the nobility in land we control. I think the civil war, if it happens, will look a lot more like the Russian Civil War than a revanchist powerhouse... especially since they won't immediately be able to import a ton of soldiers drawn from the ranks of Indian and African peasantry.

I just want to point out that our beef was with the Almoravids, not the farmers and workers exploited by them. It was their monarchic elites that kept attacking Iberia. Surely, the maghrebi people will understand this and promptly forget all about the hell wars and occupation

Grammarchist posted:It's kind of hilarious that Al Andalus is singularly responsible for every societal advancement in Moroccan History. We might need to send the tanks in to enforce LGBT rights decades from now, but for the time being I'm sure our southern comrades are ready to do their part in the war against fascism. We're dragging them kicking and screaming into the 20th century, and come Stellaris I'm sure we'll be doing the same come the 23rd century.

Seems like a good time to finally join. C, with the HoI AI being what it is, now that Al-Andalus has overcome the initial difficult setup the Ad-Hoc Communist bloc should be able to fairly easily conquer the entire world outside of Gharbia. Maybe a tiny chance the fascists will win if France doesn't collapse from manpower problems, but even if they (somehow) don't, Egypt is probably going down, and Benin won't be able to fight Iberia, let alone Serbia too, but it should make things more challenging to keep direct control of Moroccan territory than turn it into some useful puppets. Looks like Eurasia gets to trade its fate of oppression under France and the Commandant for starvation and slightly less oppression under Iberia and the Supreme Leader.

I seem to recall there was also a time when they offered to be our friends again but the Shura had juuuust voted to destroy them so they were rejected and instead allied with our biggest enemy, creating the Morocco/France alliance that lasted like 500 years and destroyed Iberia like five times.

Yeah there's an entirely probable alternate timeline out there where Al-Andalus and France split the world between them before we lose it all because of radical liberals or getting real pissy about the Philippines or something.
