aka I still have a lot of gold to give away



With the success of last week's contest, I'm doing it again!

For reference, see Another Writer's Challenge and Contest Winners



Topic
This week's topic requires a bit of political savvy and a lot of imagination, and it's a topic I've gotten to deal with firsthand in the past: You are one of the leaders of a country that has just been added to the game. What is your biggest priority, and what is the biggest problem you expect to face?



Rules
1. Your article must be on the topic above (duh).
2. Your article must contain a link to this article.
3. You must leave your article link in the comments here.
4. Entries have to be submitted by reset on day 1479. The winners will be announced by reset on day 1480.
5. NEW RULE: If you were one of the winners of the last contest, you cannot win again. You may enter, but if you get the highest votes for one of the categories, your prize will be automatically given to the first runner-up.



Prizes
I'll be giving out prizes of 5 gold to each of the following categories (no fancy trophy pics yet, I'm still working on redesigning those):

1. The Advertiser

(for the article with the most votes overall)


2. The Quiet One

(for the highest voted article from a paper with less than 200 subs)


3. The Internationale

(for the highest voted article from a player that does not have eUS citizenship)

4. My Choice

(for the article I find most interesting out of all the entries)



So get writing, my friends!
