[MoFA]The Polish Eagle vs The Russian Bear
Foreign Office
Hello and welcome to the second article by the Ministry Of Foreign Affairs! This segment article will aim to deliver to you the latest and most important news that has happened across the eWorld. Today we’ll start with something a little closer to home and talk about the latest Natural Enemy launch against France.
So as you may have seen, on day one of Blue And Evil’s term France was proposed as our Natural Enemy and the law went to congress to vote on. As you can see here more members of congress voted yes than voted no. Fortunately when a Natural Enemy law is voted on, it requires 66% or more of the votes to be yes so it didn’t pass. I say fortunately for two reasons. First of all we have a “Non-Aggression Pact” with France which was drawn up by Poland in their current treaty with France last month which was signed by the UK MoFA last term (for whatever reason the treaty wasn’t posted in the UK last term so I’ll be posting it below). The second reason is what I will be talking about next!
Something pretty major is happening over on the continent. Not long after the French NE was launched, Poland launched one too – although this one was against Russia. The goal here is simple but hard to achieve. They plan to remove China’s grip on the 100% resource bonuses they currently have over in the East which will hopefully deal the final blow the alliance of EDEN by attacking their last unbroken bastion. To make things a little more clear, I did a crude diagram below.
While things will be pretty slow to start with, this looks to be a pretty major operation drawing in many resources from across each alliance to help or thwart the plan. What will be interesting to watch is what’s currently happening within Poland. As Poland and Russia are pretty large nations, all concentration will be on the frontline. In the meantime the nations that Poland occupy will have a chance of launching resistance wars and getting their regions back while Poland is distracted, so it awaits to be seen what unfamiliar colours start popping up on the World Map.
Finally, we have the current situation in Switzerland. Currently wiped by Slovenia on request, they have are under occupation from a PTOer who has used enough multis to get into congress and pass laws sending money from the country accounts to himself. Fortunately for Switzerland, the previous CP managed to clear all accounts and lock it away safely so no more could be stolen and arranged being wiped by Slovenia so that they can sort themselves out come congress elections and do their best to make sure the PTOers and his “team” don’t make things even worse for them, so on behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and, I hope, the whole country we wish you good luck at the next elections!
Thanks for reading once again, to save space in the article I’ve put the treaty between Poland and France at the bottom so you can read it if you choose to.
Thanks and see you on the other side,

It's about time we saw another large scale conflict : D
eagle is US symbol.../me complains about use q:
Don't see why the US should get all the eagle related fun and apparently there are lots of people getting on this eagle bandwagon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eagle#Eagles_as_national_symbols ... besides Poland has been using it's coat of arms with eagle on since 1295. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms_of_Poland ... I say Poland got there first.
The US doesn't even has the best coat of arms with an eagle ... look at Iceland's ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms_of_Iceland
An eagle, a rock giant, a bull and even a dragon ... a friggin dragon no less.
... If I was a coat of arms I'd want to be Iceland's.
ALOT of countries use some form of Eagle in their national heraldry.
Poland was using the eagle, as a national symbol, before the US existed. In fact, before Columbus. 😉
I seem to remember that picture from somewhere else...
Whew! That's some lease price demanded.
The French-Polish treaty...I noticed France were about to take another region in a RW last night, Is all well with that? Because we know France do class treaty breaking as a hobby in eRepublik.
Beta, you have out done yourself with this article, pleasurable to read and very well written.
That one seems to just be people taking advantage of ePoland being distracted. ePoland looks like its about to lose its10/10 as well now
How many regions will Poland have to take?
typical of the yanks to complain of people using the eagle as their symbol like trying to close restaurants in scotland called mcdonalds
Would have been nice to have known about this treaty when we signed it! : P I'd have published it myself if I'd known. Surprised they signed one with France so soon after the last one was presumably broken:
http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/what-goes-around-1-2192826/1/20
it just was not renewed, not broken
Fascinating, informative etc thanks
All they got to do,is RW the Pakistani region of NWFP,and China will lose 3 of its resources.
Very interesting article, keep them coming!
