Playing Risk is a lot of fun but it isn't the same as real life. It is about as close as playing monopoly is to becoming the next Donald Trump. Try studying world politics, amassing a large army, and then give it up because it isn't going to happen.

Yes! I play all the time, and I will rule the world one day!
Mwahahahaha!
