Im at my first game as leader of Brazil. Its my first term as president and everything in my administration is pretty messy. Then the other day I found out that some one in my staff have been sleeping. He was supposed to inform me regarding any political changes around the globe. But accidently I found out that S.Korea have been vaging a war against their northern neighbours for quite som time now, with out me knowing about it.

Caramba!

Can some one please tell me where to hire a good foreign politicy secretary.....or maybe tell me how to get the interesting global news e-mails?.

I have the "all" setting for news in the personal settings marker.

Kind regards...

Yeah. It's very bad. You have NO idea what's going on outside the world. I want to know if some nation is having critical need on stuff maybe, wars going on etc.

little idea we need an accessible screen that shows all wars who against who should be pretty easy to implement

There is a way to tell but its very slow I guess.......

Click on a region, click on your state tab, regional news tab. You can see wars announce, alliances announce, bond issues, shortages, few other things I think but you have to look at each region one at a time and if you really want to be current and up to date, you will have to do this each and everyday , over and over and over...... But you can tell when a region declares war or has war declared on them.

Quick and easy to see who is at war. Press A> Select Tab II>Filter first column by AT WAR.

I understad the point though, and what Hundane types will work, but since messages are time sensitive you would need to do it every day as he points out.

I am in favor of an email from the State Department everytime something "major" happens in the world. Call it a "breaking story" carries on any major news network.
Examples;
War declared
Government topled by vote
Critical shortage of commodity. (today 2000 people died in Lesotho due to a critical electric shortage. Officials blame South Africa because they are refusing passage of needed shipments of Petroleum)

You get the idea.
