Depending on how much the paint is diluted ( with water ) or modified with acrylic gels, media, or pastes, the finished acrylic painting can resemble a watercolor or an oil painting, or have its own unique characteristics not attainable with other media.

Due to acrylic's more flexible nature and more consistent drying time between colors, the painter does not have to follow the " fat over lean " rule of oil painting, where more medium must be applied to each layer to avoid cracking.

If Germany were to occupy oil-rich Romania, this would undercut all of the British strategic assumptions based on Germany's need to import oil from the Americas.

Ribbentrop argued that with Soviet economic support ( especially in the form of oil ), Germany was now immune to the effects of a British naval blockade, and as such, the British would never take on Germany.

Because of the Balkans were rich in raw materials like iron, zinc and above all oil that could help Germany survive a British blockade, it was viewed as highly important by the Allies to keep German influence in the Balkans to a minimum, hence British efforts to link British promises to support Turkey in the event of an Italian attack in exchange for Turkish promises to help defend Romania from a German attack.
