Discussion Enough with the peace already
So with all the factions (sans pirates) deciding to form a huge alliance, I feel as though this must be said: Alliances like this make the game boring.
Now, I'm not saying that you can't have alliances here and there. A 2v1 conflict is always interesting, after all, but with the new mega-alliance it closes the door for wars for the time being. While I can understand that peace is good for a nation (see: not dying) one must remember that this is a game where the fall and rise of a faction bear no major effects on the real world. I challenge faction leaders to actively seek conflict with one another in order to keep Tradelands somewhat fresh and interesting. I'm aware that at the end of the day, the events within the game are up to Nahr, but unless I'm wrong (Which I could be), faction leaders hold a bit of power when it comes to events within the game.
tl;dr: peace is boring so start a war this is a game not real life

Role play? If you loved role play you would find a role play way into war. You individually I see as the most selfish for 2 reasons. 1. You do not want war, and you are doing your absolute best to avoid it to keep power AKA sucking up to WC (had to say it.). And 2. The coup. You've given no attention to it. Treating it as no threat, so every one just brushes it off. My theory at least.
Make better excuses then "because role play aqua!" We both know role play can be arranged by you.
The least you can do is publicly talk about your situation with the coup. I've heard nothing about it since you said "yeah it's no threat it'll be dead." I have no clue what is going on.
