O.K there's no decent threads in here anymore, so I left for a bit, but I'm going to see if there's life here yet.
This is the situation, it's the aftermath of the middle east, there are areas where there is no democracy/government. You and 10 friends/comrades/associates/minions have a budget of 2 million USD. Your objective is to set up a profitable, secure and working government in either barren or hostile territory. You have to be realistic and bear in mind that Russia/America may help/attack you due to oil, firearms and if you set up a government more communist or democratic. There is no working money system in the middle east, you have to buy your shit on the black market or travel over to Europe. Oh to add that fact, you're infidel scum, the Arabs hate you, the Persians hate you, the Jews hate you.

Convert. Only idiots takes religion anyways and if thats all its takes to make friends then simple conversion will save oneself from heaps of trouble. And why limit oneself to one sect or one religion, out government shall be multireligious like fucking japan (where if one tallies the members of the different religions one gets a sum that far surpasses the population).
Import water technology from Libya, healthcare from cuba and oil from venezuela. Then we'll let the yanks build a airbase or deploy nucular weapons so they'll shut the fug up. Russia, i dont know, space technology, SVD:s and tanks?

I don't think they will just hand over the shit, and i probably should of been more specific, like setting it up. Also, we're not living in happygowirly land, people hate, are intolerable etc. What I'd do is only accept people into the community who are extremely intelligent/knowledgable. world will get round that it's a good scientific community and it should thrive.
I'd set up three houses, each with living quarters and seperate purposes, one would be a storage facility, which shall store weapons, ammunition and oil, another will be a mix between a lab and a 3 bedroomed hospital (for the moment), the last house will be storage for food and more of a communal house. I'd wall up the immediate area, may employ 4 soldiers, one with rpg, one sniper, one private/medic and one officer/engineer. I'd get 3 of my friends to farm hemp, tobacco and other spices, which shall be a viable source of income, 3 others will work on food so we can become self-sufficient. 2 others shal work in the lab and as butchers/cooks. The last 2 shall work on governing/foreign affiars, basically the more political aspect of keeping everything a-okay and employing foreigners.
That's the first stage, then i would set up a simple militia with an APC and i will sell off certain things, try and govern surrounding area, expand and make deals with both USA and Russia behind each others backs. I would make sure everything is extremly sufficient so I can thrive and become an example, lots of fed up russian citizens may join.

This isn't /b/, but I'm going to allow myself to be troll'd anyway.
If i was in hostile territory i'd set base up in a bombed palace (ofcourse i would do basic renovations), then get the governments backing and control the local streets and makes sure they don't penetrate far enough into the palace. But I wouldn't go on hostile territory, I'd rather go in barren land and hemp it up.

after 12 minutes on the privy, you return to find your 4 soldiers, 3 cash croppers, 3 food farmers, and 2... um... diplomats, overcome by gayness of a nation of 13 people. The gayness is, infact, so strong that they have formed a grand dude pile and are buttseckings each other at a terrifying pace. The local warlord and his 100 retards advance unchallenged. Your imaginary friends consent, you are the only one considered raped.
