[ATLANTIS]India, Israel, Greece, USA penalty and current War situation.
Atlantis Central Treasury
Elections are overwith and the new governments have had time to settle within the walls of our alliance so now it is time to review the latest decisions and situations.
First of all I would like to adress the sad situation of India, that have been left out of ATLANTIS (for now) due to the conquer it has suffered by Indonesia. We really hope this changes soon and look forward to get the opportunity to welcome them in the near future.
We also inform you that a vote regarding whether to enforce the penalty on the US for breaking the ATLANTIS treaty has been held and the result is that they have to pay each member nation 100 Gold, as the charter demands.
What's happening on the battlefields around the world?
- The so called "Clash of the Titans", Romania and Indonesia, ATLANTIS vs PEACE, is a constant struggle. In the first events of this war, Romania lost West Siberian Region to Indonesia, a highly valuable region, and Transnistria in a RW, so we got Moldavia again on the maps for a while. In this article by Benn Dover, you can find a very good explanation of this battle. Romania is starting to be constantly blocked by Hungary, specially on Southern Great Plain and [url==http://www.erepublik.com/en/region/Southern-Transdanubia]Southern Transdanubia[/url] while some RWs have also being started on both sides to divert forces. Indonesia has also attacked Northern Region and if this region is lost, Indonesia will have access to a border with Finland. Remember that Indonesia now has border also with Norway.
- On the other side, we still have other wars ongoing on ATLANTIS vs PEACE. With the current president of Pakistan, Han Solo, Pakistan is attacking Indonesia and Iran to help Romania and Spain is also attacking France. While there are many battle fronts opened, resources are greatly focused on certain minimal targets.
- USA vs Mexico: USA has been unstoppable to conquer most of the regions of Mexico, leaving only three regions still not conquered. At the moment, Mexico is trying to reinforce alliances with another countries. The final outcome of this war is still to be decided.
- Anvil'09: The training ground opened between Noraway and Finland is still opened but with no active battles for the moment. As I said, most of the eWorld is centered on Romania vs Indonesia.
- Austria is mostly occupied now by Germany and Hungary. Only one region is left, Tyrol.
This said, we have the pleasure to greet both Israel and Greece welcome as Passive members of ATLANTIS. We are really looking forward to a strong and longlasting relationship with these nations that have proven their true eager in colaborate with us. We hope for them to grow strong under our protection for them to become the great societies they deserve to be.
As we anounced in the last article a new Secretary General and Supreme Commander will be appointed very soon. By the end of the week they will probably be introducing themselves to the eWorld. 😁
Welcome Greece and Israel!!
Go ATLANTIS!!
Diarmuid & Meiko
Supreme Commander and Secretary General of ATLANTIS

Pertamaxed for GlaDos 🙂
You owe me now 😉

you stole my flag thing for adding countries 😛
Well it's smart to copy something if it's good right. 🙂
Anyway, most interresting part I think is this:
"We also inform you that a vote regarding whether to enforce the penalty on the US for breaking the ATLANTIS treaty has been held and the result is that they have to pay each member nation 100 Gold, as the charter demands."
When will we see the official response of the USA?
Oh and I hope to see India back on the map soon as well 🙂
I wonder if USA will honour their agreements and pay
Clash of the titans is working fine.
Maybe interesting for Atlantis to offer Moldavia protection to stay independent, as Atlantis offers all nations, because Atlantis is always very wise and nice?
What about Romania and Spain and other countries who broke this "charter"? Do we overlook that and just punish the USA?
PEACE!!!
We will Win :'D
100 GOLD each country? 😶
@Emerick, if that is the kind of loyalty we can expect from an ally (not saying that it is the case) then it might be for the best. I trust the US to do the what will honor their word when signing the treaty. 🙂
@Harrison Richardson, that was also judged internally when it happened and the decisions were different.
Good informative article! Voted.
@Cocoamok: Moldavia united with Romania by the free will of Moldavian people.
I didn't see everyone paying a hundred gold to the Argentinians when they left them high and dry.
ATLANTIS is a hotbed of hypocritical lunacy, a sad bunch of pathetic tinpot dictators who will soon be lapdogs of PEACE when the Indonesians roll through and teach you a lesson not to start wars you can't finish.
I have a good feeling our leaders are going to tell you where to stick it but if they don't, I'll be disappointed.
Which would you rather have: 900 gold or the US continuing to send troops to support the alliance? Because once Mexico is concluded we'll be mobilizing more troops, but we'll be unable to buy them moving tickets and weapons as you will have our national treasury.
@Meiko - Atlantis should make public which leaders voted which way and in what ways this situation is different than past situations.
Sorry, I but see treating countries like Romania, Sweden, and Norway as a slap in the face to all the countries that they've taken over. These countries are money-grubbing jews, honestly. I've been there. Nobody in Atlantis does anything worthwhile for each other. They lost France, they lost Argentina, and they're losing Romania. This isn't an alliance, it's a bunch of kids in a forum pretending to be an alliance, and throwing shit at the US because Dish caused a stir, and DF pissed them off. If the US pays this, it'll be the only productive thing that Atlantis has ever done.
It seems that ATLANTIS is falling down, ha?
I second the comments of Eugene and Emerick (except the money grubbing Jew thing, tsk tsk tsk) And say to those of you wanting an E-United Nations, ATLANTIS may not be it, but with this asinine maneuver they are acting just like such an incompetent body would.
Just when I had started getting myself used to his bone head alliance too *sigh*.
HAIL ATLANTIS
^This is how you ignore the content of an article and shout blind faith.
PROTIP: Atlantis isn't capable of winning anything.
Emerick is pretty cool, not going to lie
@Emerick, the purpose of ATLANTIS isn't to win anything. You don't have to like it and you don't have to agree with its decisions but I would still ask you for a bit more of respect. If it isn't too much to ask...
lol
@Emerick, some countries still with the vote, viewing the current situation, as far as I know, will forget about the penalty. A sign of good will. And where is Uncle Sam official position regarding about this?
@Eugene, the voting process is not public, and the privacy is respected on this matter
Meiko - ignore the troll and answer if you intend to publish the vote and the reasoning on how this situation is different.
If you won't make it public then it won't be accepted as legitimate in the US. There is already a public perception in the US that we are being treated unfairly, transparency would go a long way toward changing America's views on this.
@Eugene Harlot, I wont publish the vote as it is private (as Diarmuid already said) and it is different because the current countries have decided it to be different. I cannot answer for each country, as I don't speak for them individually. I just bring to you the result of their voting.
"@Emerick, the purpose of ATLANTIS isn't to win anything."
I'm sorry, I must have misunderstood the purpose of a military alliance. Could you tell me where I went wrong?
I'm not down for the 100 gold/country fee. No treasury means no help from America in the future.
Welcome to the Atlantis family!
I won't accept a fiat and neither will the American public. We've already had our treasury stolen, I can't support giving it away under these circumstances. Enjoy our gold, I think you have just bought our exit from the alliance.
Why is this "contact of allegiance" only now being enforced. Why is it that the U.S. is the only target of the sanctions? What happened to the U.K. for violating the treaty in regards to sending TROOPS TO FIGHT AGAINST THE US in the war in mexico? I say, do not pass go do not collect 200 gold and go directly to PHAIL!
Why is the United States the only target of these sanctions. How come the U.K. isn't being targeted, or for that matter (Romania?) for their "imperialistic" and unannounced military endeavors. I say do not pass Go do not collect 200 gold and go directly to PHAIL. This topic would not even still being discussed had Dish not made such a hissy about it like Emerick said...
Preach it, Eugene Harlot and fourgot10!
Seems like Atlantis is going to do a better job of defeating itself than Peace 🙁
This is all bull, Why the heck does ATLANTIS insist on destroying itself in its time of trial? Seriously what effect do you think this sanction will bring? Community? Fellowship?
and in the words of Bastion "Preach it, Eugene Harlot and fourgot10!"

Pay your fee you dirty cheaters.
"What happened to the U.K. for violating the treaty in regards to sending TROOPS TO FIGHT AGAINST THE US in the war in mexico?"
The UK never sent any troops get your facts straight and the reason the us are being fined is for going to war without 48 hours notice and yes other nations have done it as well but they admitted wrong and agreed to pay if asked for it so it was forgotten about, whilst the US instead of admitting a mistake are whining about being picked upon
fourgot: We are volunteer's with our OWN money. Happens to be, private citizens have their own stocks and we can afford high quality weapons to stop you. The UK government does not fund our private endeavors. All of the UK MoD budget is directly going to deploy troops such as me to assist Romania.
WHOO!
Signatory states of ATLANTIS have routinely been in violation of the Treaty practically since its inception.
I have long opposed US grand strategy being crafted by an unaccountable secret generalsstab of Europeans. I hope now enough eUS citizens will have the sense to realize what an amateur sham ATLANTIS is and always has been.
Um, Citizen Dru: Atlantis was founded by some former US President?
Does the eUK government endorse the actions of it's citizens in fighting against an ally?
"We hope for them to grow strong under our protection for them to become the great societies they deserve to be."
What about the nations taken over or attempted to be taken over by ATLANTIS members?, don't they deserve to be great societies?

I feel the need to spam. Here's my kind response to this recent vote:
http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/my-response-to-atlantis-demands-745001/1/20
I would sooner leave this shit-pie of an alliance before we pay the penalty when Spain and Romania don't have to. This is disgusting.
Here's a slightly updated of my kind, meaningful response to this:

Read the above word carefully. Never has there been a more powerful word in the universe. This is the word sums up Atlantis.
the USA vs Mexico is war games agreed upon by the US government and the legitimate leaders of mexico.
