The only reason Rheinland operates in its totalitarian military structure is because the RM chose to promote and develop the Gottkanzler that way. Which subsequently has placed RM as the only logical and practical implementation of federal and military power now.
You essentially locked out alternatives, and then take the step forward of discouraging them and encouraging them to your banner. This doesn't exactly foster the sense of freedom and creativity that we all seem to cherish.
Perhaps. Though, to be honest, I did not promote that form of Rheinland. It sort of developed out of my control...
All I'm saying is that, generally speaking, it is better to have one unified faction than numerous separated ones. This attempt is definitely eons ahead of some that are in Rheinland right now, so I'm not saying not to do this. I'm saying that joining the RM is better, in my opinion. A lot of people disagree with that, though.
