Flag of the Spammer's Crusade
Flag of the Spammer's Crusade by @Thorvald (El Thorvaldo)

Flag of NinjaCow64's country in Multipolarity III, and the unwitting precipitant of the 2012 General Strike after Sonereal and Mosher tried to metagame him into a different signup, sparking a fight with the board moderator. The Spammers subscribed to NC's internationalist archetype and were a chief opponent of Namibian expansionism, ironically siding with Romnesia against the international coalition seeking to break its blockade of the Gulf of Guinea, whose intervention was hobbled by the Papal States locking down the Spammers' Byzantine allies in the Mediterranean. The Spammers initially supported Romnesia in the continuation war, but withdrew over concerns it intended to expand the war to Rome. Reflecting NC's frustration with Jehoshua's usual Papal hypocrisy, the Spammer's Crusade saw Cardinal Paa R. Noid emerge as antipope in a schism in 2509.

That's a ton of spam

@Warehouse_Rabbit: Not nearly as much as the early games, thankfully. Ironically NC was much more of a Dadaist than a bona fide spammer.
