The War Within Alpha - Warbands Feature Overview

Liberia was an African colony set up by America with the intent on sending emancipated slaves from the US and Caribbean islands to Africa. The African-American and Afro-Caribbean settlers were mostly Anglicized of Christian faith and English names, culturally different from the people the settlers came into contact with.
Despite being only 10% of the population, the Liberian settlers brutally oppressed the natives, creating their own version of an apartheid. The US Navy even helping crush and repress native revolts.
Now with Liberia being a shithole, but an identifibly American shithole, could the US just annex Liberia? Considering it's population is only about 4.503 million, it couldn't be that much of a burden on the US economy, plus you could get a decent amount of cheap labor.
Alternatively, I'm sure our neighbors up north wouldn't mind gaining some more land. I can see it now, @Tennisace, Governor of Liberia

Didn't you guys try colonialism with the Philippines and then decide it wasn't much fun?

We let the Philippines go, but we still held on to Puerto Rico and Guam.

No need to annex it. Just make Obama president for life and let him fix it.

Why not? I'm sure they'd fast integrate into our beautiful and diverse urban youth culture of rap music, crack cocaine and pimping your sister-in-law.

If you say so, I just can't fathom how anyone would want to remotely associate themselves with Hell on Earth. Originally Posted by Seja Victrix

We have our hands full with Puerto Rico, who waited until Trump was in charge then declared bankrupcy. We can't pick up another territory right now.

Tennisace doesn't really love Canada. He just has a faux persona that people should be able to see through and actually hates Canada. Originally Posted by Seja Victrix

His ideas are in line with the leader of Canada, Justin Trudeau. It's not like he has mostly fringe positions even if he were a faux persona. Originally Posted by Collegeguy
