Dustari was on the road to nowhere and we just brought them to the road of peace and glory.
Yes... many people have left Dustari over it's history on 2k2. It's lost many of it's commanding officers. Such as Olorin, the Paladins, and some backdoors.
I dont know what's really going on back there though :/

Larrien is still in power sure, but that doesnt change the fact that you "tried" to pass a treaty involving an Astrian appointed governor to watch over Dustari, and even at one point threatened to take his power away. >
You say you just brought them to the road of peace and glory..? Well Dustari would do alot better if it wasnt attacked by a king who is willing to wage wars for personal reasons. This war has done nothing but further sinken the spirits of the remaining Dustarian people, possibly moving more to leave.
Zormite and Dustari used to be fine alone, we were plenty glorious enough. It was always very entertaining the interactions I had experienced between the two kingdoms, especially so in the early wars before the sides were so hard-set...dustari and zormite would do so well together. Your barbaric means for "peace" is bent only on a peace in your favor, and will be an uneasy one if that. Your peace has robbed us of our brotherhood, forcing many of our close ties to be seperated. There is simply no reason for it!
You are already in an alliance with Pirates and forceably with Samaurai, so how can you honestly say Dustari threatens your kingdom in any way, they were of course in no condition to make any offensives in the first place! You are doing one terrible job of creating excuses for your quest for power. Bah you dont fool me one bit, nor do you fool the past and present Dustarian kings, nor do you fool many members of of various kingdoms, probably even some in your own but they would rather not admit it because its in their favor.
Sorry, but roleplaying just isnt as fun when certain people *cough*Zurkiba*cough* are over-emphasizing conflict and personal power while causing others to not enjoy equally important aspects.
And about the WW2 comparison: Instead look at it like this:
- Astri as Germany (big power trying to control everybody)
- Cresent Pirates as Italy (used to be most feared and envied but astri now seems to overshadow it)
- Zormite as Great Britan (standing alone while everywhere europe is falling)
- Dustari as Russia (not for any communism references but only because they also are standing alone on one front and germany had overtaken alot of russian lands but was never able to actually conquer)
- Samaruai as occupied/vici France (swiftly taken over by germany then allowing new government to form but still within germany's grip)
Thats how people on the other side of the coin would view it. I am of course speaking of the "Heads" side...lol.
