However it is worth noting that the spell also says the condition to end the spell must be something the DM agrees to AND is likely to happen in the next decade. So it won't be a cakewalk to be suddenly immune to aging.
The first part is hard, but 9.5 years passing is guaranteed to happen in the next decade.
It won't be so glacial long, unfortunately. It's already very real for many people along the equator and for those countries that don't have billions to throw at managing the impact of storms and droughts.
Seriously India, how many times do you have to let this happen before creating some laws? It's not like you need to invent stuff, we've got this problem mostly solved..
States (a state is a government, a nation is a group of people) can do whatever they want with their passport. One of the perks of being sovereign. But there are groups of countries that have mutually agreed what should be on a passport and how/where.
The EU is a big example, but there is also a common passport for ECOWAS for several West African states and many others.
That said, I think they all list sex/gender, but I'm open to being corrected by someone who actually knows.
It's important to note that russia will never "run out" of anything. Making tube artillery isn't hard (compared to say, modern radar systems or nightvision gear), and they can just keep making more.
What they're running out of are the ungodly amounts of cold war reserves meant to rush the Fulda Gap. The "free" soviet holdovers that Russia could re-mobilize relatively easy is finally gone, after using up all the easy stuff, all the kinda-hard stuff, and now also the not-quite-a-rusted-scrappiece-yet.
But they CAN still make new guns, it's just much slower than pulling them out of storage. And that means Russia will have far fewer guns in the field. And that's kind of a big problem for a military that has spent the last century basically centered around massed tube artillery and tanks.
Putin’s never going to let a large mass of soldiers return home lol
Traditionally, letting a whole bunch of poorly treated, battle-hardened soldiers with a severe grudge against their leaders back into your country hasn't gone well for said leaders. Letting them die in the field for little additional gains might be a strategic choice for Putin not suddenly finding himself in unexpected exile or "unexpected exile"
He's not wrong...
