▒█Something I probably should've written a long time ago█▒
Chisholm
Sup US. Been a while since I wrote an article to you guys, hell, probably most of my american subscribers are long dead. Anyways, those who do remember me know I left for Peru on June 10th, I eventually became president of that country. Anyways, that's not really the point of the article.
I'm sure most of you old dogs (Pre-august, I think) remember when citizenship was implemented. "Thank the lawd, this'll stop PTO's" most cried. "God damn it, this'll stop PTO's" others exclaimed. What I think was slightly overlooked (and I didn't even think of) was the fact that citizens were allowed to move country to country mere minutes before citizenship was finally put in. It makes sense that this should be allowed. But in my mind, maybe a week before it was implemented would've made sense, and not the day of. It's pretty simple why.
The night before citizenship was implemented, mere hours before reset. Upwards of 100 or more mostly Poles flew into Peru. They remained hidden for a bit, but eventually exposed themselves. AFter some investigation from honest Peruvians, it was discovered they were part of the TO/Mercenary groups. "Holy See" "GROM" and "PMTF"
Thanks to citizenship, these groups all took control, with their endless multi's (we've reported as many as we could), and took congress, and there wasn't a damn thing the peruvians could do about it. Then they let in more poles who took congress, who let in more and more and more, etc etc. So essentially, because for whatever reason people were allowed to move around minutes before citizenship was granted, Peru took it up the rear end. That god blessed citizenship everyone wanted so much successfully Perma TO'd a country.
Was this overlooked? Goddamn it. It would've been so easy for them to prevent this. I thought citizenship was supposed to protect the natives of a country. Not screw over those who could'nt make internal multi's quickly enough to beat out the foreigners who decided it'd be cool to fly into peru minutes before reset and TO the only non-PEACE country in South america. To "protect EDEN's interests"
Protip: The peruvians are very giving people, had you actually worked with them, chances are you'd get much more out of them than just the couple thousand gold that's being stolen.
This is a travesty. It was so avoidable, and now one country has to essentially sit and wait until the poles decide the treasury is dry, go fight with their new money for a few weeks, and come back to take what has built up in the country accounts.
The citizens of Peru (and trust me they do exist) have been working night and day to try and find a way around this. But really, there's no way to beat them in an election, because they were allowed to steal the country away in mere minutes by being allowed to move seconds before citizenship was implemented. Bullshit if you ask me, huge bullshit. I honestly don't know why I haven't been writing ban worthy tirades every other day since it happened. I was probably too busy trying to come up with ideas to fight these guys, but honestly, there's no way.
This was a huge overlook by the admins, because following game rules, there's going to be no logistically feasible way for Peru to take their country back.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention it's the same GROM who tanked for the US in manitoba. Here's how they get their cash.
So, US, am I the only one who finds it illogical to be stealing from the only Non-PEACE, country in an entire continent to fight PEACE? They could've done it anywhere. Hell, the polish government said in an article they should be using their size to "pillage and (I think) destroy smaller countries" (I'll add the link when I find the article.)
Thanks. Also give it a shout if using citizenship to perma-TO a country sucks

The people of Peru will do everything they can to defeat the Polish backed TO.
I think the article Chisholm is thinking about is one from the POG...saying they want to rape other countries.
Wally Wilson
President of ePeru
votato.
Wally Wilson, ladies and gentlemen. (Current president of Peru trying to sort this bullshit out)
JEWITTMAXXX
I don't agree with PTO's. But I do love Poland. They are really testing my love though. At least PTO some jerk PEACE country instead of Peru which is friendly to us.
This is yet another stain on the sad tactics used by all alliances in this game and it needs to be stopped. The freedom to sovereignty for each and every nation is a given right and it is unethical to storm in and ransack the treasuries and hope of any country unable to defend itself.
sad face. Paranoia Approved
: ( Theres got to be someway around this, Peru doesnt deserve this....

FYI, they are trying to impeach the president (me).
Chisholm I'm glad you aired this out.
I don't dislike Poland IRL or typically in game at all but this is beyond the pale. Permanent PTO's suck. The fact that they utilized the moments before citizenship implementation to solidify their power in a smaller nation disgusts me. Surely, it was a pro move in terms of using game mechanics to the hilt- what the admins overlook the masses shall exploit ad nauseum!
This is so sad, thanks for bringing it to light.
voted.
While I don't agree with PTOs(Germany is OK to PTO though), it would be stupid for americans to help you, Peru, against one of their strongest allies. But good luck bro.
Same way it's stupid to PTO the one country in south america remotely trying to help you guys out. Chances are it will force them into PEACE to wiggle out of it, and lose another iron region. Gj \o/
V 'N S
so stupid from poles 🙁
>Same way it's stupid to PTO the one country in south america remotely trying to help you guys out.
How?

Like I said, I don't approve of what they did, but americans should prioritize poles over peruvians...
The Peru situation is really difficult because of how entrenched the PTO interests are. I've been pushing for aid to Peru for a while, but there simply isn't an easy way of pushing the Poles out.
We could give them AIDS?
Sad story!
