Outside the Empire

How do outsiders feel about Paradiso? Paradiso is a household name to all, yes, and to many, something to aspire to and admire. Not for all, though. Outlying countries have been known for their hostility towards Paradisian imperialism and xenophobia. None have been able to take it down yet, all rebellions and wars have only scratched the surface. Paradiso has been successfully kicked out of only a small portion of the countries they've conquered.

Countries outside of Paradiso can never match them in riches and resources, but some can come close. Iceland for one example, within the past 100 years, has been able to solidify a defense against Pardiso's war machine. It is one of the few places on the earth with even basic socialism.

The countries that rival Paradiso are not perfect, but their human rights violations are much lower in comparison. Some of these countries are united, and constantly meet to come up with new plans to take the grand empire down. The Alliance, as they are called, view Paradiso's police, the military, and Anomaly Operatives alike as weapons of mass imperialism and tools of colonial fascism. To Paradiso, there is no ending to war. War is forever, as it is profitable, and it only ends when all continents are theirs.

The Alliance are responsible for the existence of organized AO rebels.
