Can't capitalist(-like) countries be friends or allies?
Is the NATO and illusion and none of those countries ever worked together or got along?
Madina is at war and of-course it will 'compete'/do what ever is possible and still honorable by its own norms, it can do to survive and take its land back.
If Madina had olives and we had vines, then yea. But as the trade system is too simplistic, it's more mercantilism than true capitalism.
