Western Europe Strategies

Characteristics
As Europe, immediately expanding into Greenland and giving both of it's provinces cruise missiles can be used to defend against the US or Russia while you expand into North America. Russia can immediately take Ukraine, Finland and Norway so securing Sweden then Norway is a sound strategy. You can also expand into Spain and then into Africa, since it is possible to go from Spain into Morocco through the Gibraltar Strait. Be advised that losing Ukraine means Russia can take Turkey and cut you off from the Middle East, and similarly, losing Greenland means the US can cut you off from Canada.

While this superpower seems like an alliance of western european nations, only the United Kingdom and France have nuclear weapons programs. Under N.A.T.O, some of their nuclear weapons (and some American ones) are stationed in Eastern Europe as a deterrent to Russia's large arsenal.

Israel and Iran aren't much of a threat but should be dealt with if you want to take the Middle East or North Africa. Russia will be your main rival, fighting with you over Eastern Europe. The US will fight you over Canada and Greenland but will have to divide their attention if Russia is also present. (Thanks to a fandom user).
