If you're only doing it to "train players", then I honestly think you might be a little bit surprised as to what's involved.
I suggested another - even smaller - nation so that you can get your feet wet without much pressure. You need to develop experience, and I'd hate for you to follow YC, as I fear that it could be a negative experience for you - big shoes to fill 'n all. You're still a lil' raw... but you have passion - and that's something that's sorely missing in a lotta guys. Build up the experience... and who knows?
