Quote from byteme:
Clearly, having the likes of Ethiopia, Eritrea and Nicaragua as part of the first coalition was vital for its success.
Not sure why Qatar is listed twice in the second coalition but having Qatar, Jordan, Morocco and UAE on board is not insignificant.
I don't have a dog in this fight but it seems to me comparing numbers in this way is somewhat meaningless.
