* In foreign policy, the Ryan Administration fights two wars; the Second Persian Gulf War with the newly created United Islamic Republic, a union of Iraq and Iran, and the Russo-Chinese War, fought over Siberian oil. Not long before the latter war, Ryan had successfully pushed for an expansion of NATO to include the Russian Federation, in a futile attempt to deter a Chinese attack.
* Pronounces the "Ryan Doctrine"; this states that anyone who attacks American citizens anywhere in the world, no matter who he may be, will be held accountable by the United States.
