Well, I have two answers for this one...

Answer #1:  I would like to build Companies for the NAC, the 
Pan-African Union, the Arabs, and the Oceanic Union.  I'd also like 
to build some Merc and Colonial units, mostly because the figures are 
cool.  The closest I get culturally is League of Latin American 
Republics, but Politically I guess I am a NAC'er (I'm Puerto Rican).

Answer #2:  Good question.  The NAC and the ESU are enemies.  The 
LLAR and the NAC probably don't like each other much.  Does this mean 
the LLAR and the ESU are allies?  This is somewhat relevant since I am 
trying to develop the OoB's for the "Mexican's"...  I don't imagine 
the Mexicans would have NAC equipment, unless it is captured junk 
from one of the border wars...

(This is as good a time as any.  A whiles ago I said I could always 
use my non-Jon-approved OoB's for the Puerto Rican National 
Liberation Army - the "Macheteros".  Somebody connected Puerto Rico 
and the "Macheteros" with Mexico.  Other than the Spanish language, 
there is nothing much else Puerto Rico and Mexico share.  Puerto Rico 
is a U.S. colony/territory/commonwealth/headache (pick your choice, 
but be careful which one you use when speaking to another Puerto 
Rican), and the Macheteros are a currently inactive pro-independence 
Terrorist group.  There, I said it.  To quote my boss, "back to live 
action, ladies and gentlemen...)

Any geopolitical alliance map out there?

Alfredo (and no, I'm not a terrorist... yet.... ;-)
