2. The power started and ended with the Army and Wealthy with the most power in MSU's. In the duration of this game there were choices of either the Army and Wealthy being on the offensive or defensive and if they did choose to be on offense or defense then they had the chance to gain or lose MSU power. The Guerillas managed to get all of the Peasants to join their group; making the Guerillas five MSU's away from having the most power. Also, In order too prevent the Guerillas from overtaking Guatemala, the U.S gave all of their MSU's to the Army and Wealthy, the Army and Wealthy then took over creating a Democratic Government. As a U.S members point of view, everything fell into place, we got what we wanted, in the end Guatemala had a Democratic Government.
3. Just like everyday problems, there were treaties or promises, some were kept and others were broken.The Peasants made treaties with each group promising if each group gave them 30 MSU's then they would support the Guatemalan Government. The Peasants then broke the treaties and transferred to the Guerrillas and giving the Guerillas more MSU power, almost enough power to take over Guatemala.
4. The U.S being one of these groups played a major role in the game. In general they were to mediate and provide support to whom ever they would want to and because the U.S members wanted Guatemala to have a democracy they had favored the Army and the Wealthy who had the same desire.
5. Through this power shifting game there were many negatives and positives. As a U.S member;w hen the Guerrillas were in second for most MSU power, that was a negative because that meant they were a step closer to ruling Guatemala causing chaos in other countries which would then affect the U.S even more. A positive was when the U.S gave all of its power to the Army and Wealthy becoming a Democratic Nation. From the Guerillas point of view they were happy because they were one step away from leading Guatemala into what they wanted which was a dictatorship.
6. In my family household there have been many conflicts concerning my brothers and I. Being the youngest of my family I am also the weakest. My older brother complains about me wearing his socks, and through cooperation and a little bit of force we find a solution to the problem; I don't wear his socks anymore.
Another example includes the magical chair called "solo seat", the only chair at the dinner table where you don't have to worry about bumping elbows with the person sitting next to you. With many arguments (conflicts) concerning who will sit there, we have come to the solution containing three rules. #1; you have to call solo seat with a parent around, #2 you have to say it loud enough so everyone in that room can hear you, #3 if you call it first you got the amazing oppurtunity of sitting in the "solo seat."
