Longue vie au Roi Woldy

Longue vie au Roi Woldy

First things first, Jimbojoy and I have embarked on a new form of media-tastic entertainment, and have recorded for your audio pleasure, a podcast. Entitled ‘Bob save the King’ where we discuss all things eUK, eRep, and sometimes we even talk about real life!

It would be fantastic if you could give it a listen (it’s just under half an hour long) and we welcome any feedback to make it more enjoyable.

You can find the link to the podcast here, and the discussion thread on our amazing show here.

I’d also like to announce that Invalidation is now a lord, for being so awesome.



In other news,

It occurred to me just today that, eFrance has no king.

I see it only fit to point out that my mother, was an eight French on her fathers side, his second cousin being a Mr. Pierre Baget of Marseilles.

Therefore, through my mother I see only fit to make a claim to the eFrench throne, in order to install a fit-to-rule regíme (that’s a french word) of royal autocracy on their unruly and unhygienic country. Needless to say, I am as unmoving on this issue as your average frenchmen is on the prohibition of cheese.

In other words, eFrance, your King has arrived.
That is to say, eFrance, votre roi est arrivé

You saw it here first, I am now self proclaimed King of eFrance, and I make it my goal to have a celebratory banquet on the issue in Versailles palace.

But where is this het up agitation coming from? What has happened to spur my noble house into occupying and ruling eFrance, as well as establishing Pope Shadow’s papal reign there?


I told you I was French

Well when I glanced at the French media the other day, I caught wind of a few things. Being far from fluent in french, I was disturbed by what I saw. Then, after having it translated, I was even more disturbed.

Allow me to summarise; this chap, the Présídént of Fráncé, was interviewed by someone appropriately named after Cesare Borgia.

The interviewer at one point asks the Présídént what he thinks of Belgium and the UK, to which he replies that although it’s ‘nóthíng pérsónál’ he sees the UK as being an appropriate target for Frénch ággréssíón. This has been seen by a few people here as a tad audacious, as we believe the UK is one of the few countries to have stuck to the spirit of the Strasbourg treaty, which was recently overturned by Frénch Congress 20 votes to 2.

Even though efforts have been made to preserve our relations, it seems that now the two sides are rearing to go and itching for a fight. eFrance has supposedly been itching to gain regions from Belgium, the Netherlands or the UK for some time now.

Regretfully, one congressmen has gone as far as drawing up potential invasion plans of our fair isle. (It’s not very good, so don’t worry)

Leaving hypothetical scenario’s behind, the Frénch Présídént does make a good point, that we are of equal size and could have a good laugh bashing the frogs. I’m sure we all welcome opportunities for fun, seeing as we are perhaps one of the more care free and fun-centered countries of the new world.

Of course, our allies could get involved and quite a large theatre of war could develop, especially with the UK’s ties to alliances such as, well, ONE, and Frénch ties to Terra. We wouldn’t however be fighting anyone new, seeing as we’re already engaged with the írísh.

On a more serious note, war with France is quite an exciting prospect, although old allies, the RL connotations and rivalry between our countries could serve us to happily troll each other and make eRepublik slightly more interesting, as well as offering some variation from the mundane battles with countries such as Ireland that we have grown oh so used to winning.
