In common speech, Boi Country exhausted the entire nation's wealth in an eight-year war, benefiting the arms dealers and financial capitalists of the Newland Republic!
Of course, not to mention the Newland Republic's influence in international oil trade.
Before the Iran-Iraq War, the second most used currency after the Liangxia Empire's Gold Yuan was the Gold Mark, with a weight one-third higher than the Newland Dollar. By the end of the Iran-Iraq War, the Newland Dollar had replaced the Gold Mark, with its weight increasing by over one hundred percent in eight years.
Without the Iran-Iraq War, there would be no current Newland Republic!
Can such an ally be trusted?
To say, even when exporting arms, the Newland arms dealers didn't offer discounts to Boi Country due to their alliance.
