It looks like you may have mis clicked and declared war on true neutrals. Those are the pinkish territories with white infantry in them. If you declare war on them you have to defeat them to take over territory. If you declare war on them then they become friendly to me. All I would have to do is walk in a land unit and the white guys become whatever power I walked in with. I will just leave them alone and not take advantage.

Thanks, Mike for your suggestion. A few days ago I realized the implication of my declaration of war.
At the beginning of the game I thought it to be normal for the Axis powers to declare war to everybody as that reflects the reality at the beginning of the war.
I also declared war on the neutrals, as my country, Belgium, was neutral at the beginning of WW2 (and WW1!), but was attacked by the Germans (my father and his 2 brothers were in the resistance, caught and spent 3 years in concentrations camps - only my father survived)

In the game, at the beginning, I should probably have done some stuff with that Japanese navy, but now it’s too late. Navy is difficult to learn and I’m still learning a lot ;)

Thanks for not taking advantage with those neutrals, but I would not be astonished if you will win the game.
