ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Free West Alliance

Okay, kiddo, imagine you and your friends are playing on the playground. Sometimes, you might see bigger kids trying to take your toys or boss you around. Now, imagine if all the kids who believe in fairness and being nice to each other decided to team up together to protect themselves from those bullies. That's kind of how the Free West Alliance works!

The Free West Alliance is a group of countries in the Western hemisphere (like North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand) who have decided to work together to protect their interests and promote democracy, human rights, and freedom. They believe that everyone deserves to be treated fairly and without discrimination, and they try to promote those values around the world.

Just like how you and your friends might make rules and help each other out on the playground, the countries in the Free West Alliance work together to make agreements, share resources, and protect each other from harm. They might work together on things like trade (which means buying and selling things between their countries), military cooperation (which means working together to protect each other from threats), or environmental protection (which means taking care of the planet we all share).

The Free West Alliance isn't perfect, and sometimes they might not agree on everything. But just like how you and your friends might have disagreements but still try to be fair and kind to each other, the countries in the Free West Alliance work together to promote their shared values and protect themselves from harm.
