Come here, buddy.

Maybe I am a coward, a scoundrel, and a villain, but in the event of a fair war, I would most likely prioritize the safety of the people closest to me (and myself, I wasn't born to be cannon fodder). So, if there were such an option, haha, then option 3 would probably be the best. Otherwise, I don't even know, I don't see much difference between the first two, and the economy in both cases will collapse to zero in the event of equal opposition.
