Do you know how demand and supply works? Without the Muslim world you will pay SKY-HIGH prices for that oil (leading to serious inflation). And this does not just apply to Oil and Gas but every single good you could possibly want to import, as we control the vital sea lanes.

A few reasons why your economies are screwed even if you are "self-sufficient" in terms of Oil and Gas: You are completely cut off from the most vital shipping lanes in the world. Any goods you do manage to import will be a significantly more expensive. This will, in turn, lead to higher levels of Inflation. Very high inflation means people lose a lot of their savings. People who just lost their savings tend to cause instability. Instability will further hurt the already weak economy. An even weaker economy, will lead to even more instability. Downward spiral....

Funny how all of a sudden everyone considers themselves to be self-sufficient whilst completely ignoring the geopolitical realities of the real world. If you are indeed that self-sufficient.... then your economy must truly suck.

Certainly not.

They will pay a small amount of money per vessel.

A full trade embargo has been placed on all members of the Crusader Coalition until such a time as they deem fit to leave it. - No Oil - No Gas - No Access To Trade Routes R.I.P. your economies.

Shariah law allows for this and it's in the interest of maslaha, akhi.

Islamic State is golden-brown.

Neutrals are allowed access and we may even make an exception for "Non-Shariah compliant goods" if it can be proven that it will only be sold to non-Muslims in non-Muslim countries.

Nope, just your ships and those of your crusader allies. p.s we are not "extremists".

lol Fair enough, though i need to embark on Jihad to unite my splintered Khilafah.

Glad to hear it. This restriction also applies to Islamic State air-space.

Be aware that no merchant vessel carrying non-Shariah compliant goods will be allowed safe passage through Islamic State waters. Yes, It is highly regrettable that they did not embrace Islam before their demise.

Asymmetric warfare, mate.

Speak for your side; we got things on lock.

Cold war sounds good to me but I guess we'll see when the ceasefire ends.

Fine but take into consideration my nations size in-game compared to others who have huge swathes of land. I need Australia to get to South America hehe...

Okay cease-fire holds for 12 hours, real time, starting now.

They got there thanks to my navy. I want all of Oceania, basically. That's my little empire,

I want eastern China and Japan too. I literally just sent two small armies to invade them. Oh, and the Korean peninsula, Australia, and the Philippines.

I want: Indonesia, Malaysia, Bangladesh, and East Africa.

I want eastern China too.

Note to whoever is creating the map: I want my fair share of the Muslim world. Abu Haddad can't have it all to himself

A dormant volcano overlooking a highly populated city in your country has been manually activated via a series of well placed explosives. The city is in ashes and the survivors (with their skin peeling off) are up in arms...

A few get through and kill hundreds of thousands.
