I am playing as the persians and a few turns ago I declared a war on tiny Japan (now a small island city
) and attacked them (without them attacking me)
The thing is I had MPP with Egypt (half way around the wrold) and the next turn they declare war on thier neighbour England and I was forced into this war (I have just entered democracy)
I'd like to know if Egypt felt stronger because I had an MPP with them and got courege to attack the stronger and more advanced England.
