Commentator of Vale Watch wrote: Thank you for you valuable contributions.From what we have discussed so far,we can sort out that Vale and Atlas have these distinguish features:

Vale:Naval hertiage depended on geography, Naval colonzation, Ten years' war of resistence, Aggresive expansion on Mountain Glenn, Source of the idea of unity among the nations, Generic Western Culture.Netherland fits these pretty well,but the idea has a obvious Chinese alternative.

Atlas:Tech advantage,Imperialism,Warmonger,High income polarization,Energy Monoploy,Strong army,German-style buildings.Germany or USA fits these

So there comes a conclusion:Vale alludes from Netherlands and China,Atlas alludes from USA and Germany

That's...not what I said at all. I said that if you take extremely generic events and apply them to something, of course you're bound to get similarities. Imperialism connects to a lot of nations (even modern day China is pretty imperalistic in how they treat Tibet, Mongolia, Hong Kong and Taiwan. By your own logic, Atlas should therefore allude to China), and a rebellion and major shift in goverment can also be applied to a pretty massive amount of countries. Likewise, the argument for 'unity among nations' can also be compared to the United Nations or European Union.

Let's take a biological example. Predators that hunt fast prey are generally pretty fast themselves. That's a generic and common trait. By your logic, all fast-moving animals would therefore be related because they happen to share one or two extremely generic traits. And a single glance at a sailfish, cheetah and peregrine falcon (who are all very fast animals) will prove that simply isn't true.

It honestly sounds like you want Vale and Atlas to allude to China and the USA respectively because of personal reasons, because the 'evidence' you present is extremely lacking, non-specific, generic, coincidental and ultimaltely just doesn't prove anything to the point you make stuff up.
