Well, Lativa, Lithuania and Estonia may be hard to claim, considering the Russian Federation has soldiers occupying it xD Germany wouldn't be too happy being claimed either haba
As for alternate fuels, it isn't always viable economically (Hence why we haven't done it yet). We are low on food for the world as it is, you have to displace food crops for the correct crop to synthesise into biofuel. Countries with a larger population would be the ones suffering more here since they would need to import more, especially if they have a large population for a relatively small area. Societies with a lot of viable free land and a low population are going to do well... Provided one if the larger countries doesn't barge in and steal it from them first. Of course, as we go on in the RP, oil is going to run out, so I guess people who have a lot of land are going to be my prime targets *Toddles off to world map*
