Can you make your country safer without making its neighbors feel threatened?
A flag on a pier. A ferry full of people. An ally with a price. Lead a small coastal state through choices about power, protection, and promises. Compare classical realism and structural neorealism by changing policy, then changing the balance of power.
Solo decision simulation
When does hiding a site pay?
Send Vela’s inspection order, then rewind the first or last meeting to see tit-for-tat at work. Decide whether to sign two draft agreements and explain why cooperation and the balance of power can pull in different directions. Then test a tariff fine and apply your reasoning to a historical treaty.
Solo strategy simulation
What can change when the weapons stay the same?
Two armed rivals meet. Investigate the end of the Cold War and the campaign to ban landmines. Carry records between exhibits, test an inspection protocol, and defend a coalition strategy before you revisit your first prediction.
Solo historical investigation
One agreement. Which theory explains why it was signed?
A country moves into the neighborhood. An agreement is already signed. Explain the bargain through five IR approaches, investigate two escorts that drew different reactions, and revise your advice as the evidence changes. Finish the week with an exam rehearsal about a new wildfire aircraft pact.
Solo exam-prep investigation
Who can stop the train after the deal is signed?
A lunar freight tunnel will cut a 12-hour trip to 48 minutes. Advise Marel before a rival gains control of the shortcut, test two gate rules, and decide what a late-night warning actually supports.
