So I picked germany because, in my little country, I would have had enough metal for 6 Bismarck-class, a handful of Hippers (cute little rhyme innit?) and enough destroyers and auxillaries to guard them all.
I'm sure somebody will come along and blow huge holes in my ideas.
I will have my grain of salt ready.
