Sure, It started off as imperialism, but when the americans found about the natives, they knew that they knew about the island well, some remedies for sicknesses on the island, and also the tobacco plant was found here. (Maybe drug abuse wouldn't be as bad if it wasn't for the english finding it?). So they thought they could be friends with the natives. It would double thier knowledge, and may have more of a chance of surviving should they catch a sickness. But it ended up in the 2 points i mentioned earlier.

Sure, it could be fixed by multiculturalism, but for how long will that last? By attacks that have happened before, I meant attacks on certain cultures in general. These can be sparked off by cut-off aid. Also, it can start off hatrid, or racism which would trigger more attacks.

An example of multiculturalism going bad is "wild west" America (don't know what best to describe it as). The cowboys (also can't think of a better word to use) wanted to have a multicultural society with Native Americans. They traded guns, and metal products, for medicines, or for them to give them some knowledge of America, or medicines, etc. But this just triggered the following:

1) The Cowboys gave the Natives illnesses from England that Natives were not immune to, and did not know how to cure.

2) A difference in opinions started fudes, which then led to war.

The war could have been prevented by anti-multiculturalism, and presumably there would have been less casualties if we had not traded firearms, and knowledge of the land.

Mainly places in Africa, that suffer from draught. They depend on us to give them food. What happens when we can't supppley them with what they require, becuase if we do, we won't have enough to feed our own country? Anyone who has traveled here, (from that naton/culture) could commit another attack like the ones we have seen in the past, which not only proves that the consequences of multiculturalism are mainly bad, but would spark off any number of riots, more attacks, and basiccaly crime. All down to multiculturalism.

I guess it all depends on what kind of journal you want.

One the player can read afet the game in the form of a story,

or

One that gives a list of events up to the last save, that helps you recover if you have done something/what you have done.

The point I am making is that it is due to multiculturalism that 9/11 happened. I am not saying that we should give any less attention/choices to othe rcultures, I am just saying that perhaps if it wasn't for multicuklturalism, we may not have tried to "help" less economicallly developed countries, then ended up doind nothing more than prolonging the enevitable.

Perhaps if multiculturalism was not favoured by so many people, less tragedies would befall the world. A recent example is the SARS virus that started in South-East-Asia. Did that not get to America, England, Holland, etc by travellers? Would these travellers have come to these contries if we had the majority had not been in favour of multiculturalism? NO!

Different cultures belive in different things. This can cause conflicts between the cultures, whether it is religious, or or not. Take September the 11th as an example. Asama Bin Laden had different beliefs to Americans, so he decided that to show how strongly he felt, he would bring down some of the largest buildings in New York. The actual suicide bombers were taught to fly in America, if it was not for multi-culture, they would not have been taught, and most probably not do what they did.

We do not need multi-culture to survive. Take world war 2 into consideration. America looked at the Atlantic ocean as a mud puddle: No one would be able to attack, etc America due to it's existance. It hardly ever got attacked. Once at Pearl Harbor, and Once on september the 11th. But they managed just fine without the influence/aid of other cultures.

If we hadn't created Iraq, Saddam Hussain wouldn't be it's dictater. We created it because we thought we were helping that culture, but we did nothing but create something to slowly destroy.

AGS wasn't really designed for making Platforms, although with the new "regions" it is possible, I doubt anyone will. Allthough, you are free to have a go.

Yes. OK.

How long will it be before the "ghost" forum is set up?
