You see that's the oft forgotten part of the "fog of war". The fact that they lie. They're not going to tell that they've agreed to a pact where they co-invade say Poland and divide it up. They're not going to tell about their secrets plans to invade France and form an Axis. They'll lie instead.
There's historical evidence.

They probably didn't see it. Dictators have as hard a time conceiving of shared victories as they do admitting to long secret backroom alliance agreements. They don't want to look any bit less strong than they can.

I think the reason DC's played the run aggressively last year was for multiple reasons. Drake Maye can make plays as a runner himself and obviously Stevenson is a good player but they had a rookie with terrifying speed(for a DC) and big play potential as well. In Maye's first year as a starter they were probably betting on their pash rush + forcing a young QB to beat them with his arm and coverage reading. This year if they get the anticipated upgrade in blocking plus upping the talent on the WR room it could become a real conflict for defenses. Especially given that multiple rookie/young players at key positions on offense now have a year of NFL experience under their belts as well.
But seeing visions from the future "Long Night" as Aegon I had done; he chose to support his sister =claim to the throne over his own. In order to preserve a united approach to future threat.
@Web3luveer Daenerys had been a strong but just leader in many ways right up until the end. Killing off the Jon Snow and Daenerys aspect of the story killed off any sequels and the story itself.
@Web3luveer Seriously! They could have re-established the Targaryen dynasty and the we could have sequels. By killing all the main characters they killed the story itself.
Changes beyond the region are driving South American states to get more serious about enforcing their writ in and around their borders.
The pressures from outside are manifold. First, there’s the change in U.S. policy toward the region, exemplified by the January 2026 raid that captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Washington’s counter-cartel coalition and new secondary sanctions authority against Cuba point in the same direction: The U.S. is reasserting dominance over the Western Hemisphere’s security alignments and economic policies. Second, disruptions around global chokepoints, particularly the Strait of Hormuz, have increased the value of South American energy, food, minerals, oil and Atlantic export routes. Finally, U.S.-China competition adds another layer, as ports, infrastructure, satellites, defense contracts and energy systems are turned into instruments of influence.
Brazil and Argentina demonstrate the two main responses available to the strongest South American states: Brazil is building domestic capacity to protect its territory and periphery, while Argentina is regaining relevance through selective cooperation with the United States. - Andrew Davidson
