So, what's happening in eIndia? *EDIT 1868 0200*
Death and Taxes
***Right, you can ignore the waffle below and just skip to the last part. The good news is that we are safe from a Serbland wipe***
Good evening eIndia. Time for another article I think. During today I've popped up in a places giving vent to a certain amount of frustration about the lack of information about our predicament. I'm not the only one to do this of course, but what I will try to do is to give you what information I can gather about what is likely to happen in the next week or so.
I shouldn't have to do this of course, this is the job of the government. People have argued that the government shouldn't be giving vital information away about plans, well, I don't expect that, what I do expect is the simple art of communication. To be in a government is a privilege, and part of that privilege is that each department must communicate with its citizens.
OK, enough whining and complaining (it is after all, only a game), let's get the show on the road....
We start with something odd, a proposed impeachment of the president of Thailand by his Minister of Defence here:
Now, there are three possible reasons for this. The first one is that it was proposed just to have a laugh. Well possible, but the other likelihood is that there was a disagreement between the MoD and the CP on future strategy. As the CP survived, we can only surmise that this disagreement was based on these two items of forthcoming legislation:
The natural enemy proposal against us here:
Or the MPP with Brazil:
Now unless some helpful Serb tells us what it was about, we'll never know. But my money is on the Natural Enemy proposal, not on the proposal itself, but purely on the timing, as we shall see later.
However, as I'm unfamiliar with Indian/Thailand relations I thought I would do a little bit of work to see if I could dig up some background on Thailand. There's not a lot to be honest, but I was able to dig up this article by Mystela:
Now Mystela is a nice girl - Canadian in RL - but I'm sure she's a bit biased in her article. She also says - and this is important - that Thailand suffers from heavy government regulation of internet use, and as a consequence it is difficult for RL Thais to play the game. I do think there is a truth to this, but I can also say that when I was fighting for Thailand a long time ago, I did have a conversation with an RL Thai who informed me that Thais won't play the game because the Serbs are too strong and they have no chance of getting their eNation back.
But there's more; here is the current state of affairs of the media in Thailan
😛
Yep! That's it. One miserly article in the last seven days about their MPP with Brazil. So, not really much of a community is it? When we look at their MU profile it all becomes clear.
This isn't a country, it's an MU. All they are is a mobile military unit for the greater Serbia, strategically positioned to intervene by way of MPP's into whatever battle Serbia thinks is worthwhile. So please, don't call them Thais or Thailand, they're just a bunch of PTO Serbs or Serbland with all the classic traits that they bring to the game, bullying and arrogance.
Now, with that out of the way, let's look at the current battle position in eIndia, and the reason why the Serbs may have been arguing about the timing of their NE:
We're about to win this RW here in Maharashtra:
Well, when I say win, I mean Croatia are about to win it for us. Do Croatia love us that much, well, maybe a little but the main reason is that it seals off their border with Indonesia like this:
So even if eIndonesia take Karanataka (eventually as eCroatia have initiative) their NE will fail and they will need to NE India to get at Croatia.
But now that Serbland has arrived to complicate things even further. You see, Serbland has only one access route here in Southern Thailan
😛
And should they take our two southern regions then they could get stuck too like this:
It's all going to get very messy with four countries playing musical chairs with multiple RW's by India, Indonesia and Thailand all trying to allow or prevent access.
And the reason for all this? Simples.
CoT/TWO want to kick eCroatia out of India and they want to wipe China as the last bastion of EDEN. This will require CoT attacking from India and Spain attacking through the Philippines as TWO.
One wonders what USA will do? China was always their great friends along with Brazil, so will they attack them through Republic of China?
Exciting times? Absolutely! The next few days will require a lot of hard work by eInida - her government and people - but they will need to work with Croatia and China if we want to survive. Why? Have a look at the MPP stacks.
As we say, read them and weep. That's what you get for neutrality....
Thailan
😛
India:
I do hope I have been of some service with this article.
EDIT **********************
Right, here's the bad news. Croatia have decided to RW Andrah Pradesh. Here it is:
Why does this matter? Well it means that should India win Thailand will have access into our hinterland like this:
I think you guys need to talk to the Croatians and ask why they have decided to open us up like a tin can as a sacrifice to keep them from Indonesia...
************EDIT for 02:00 Day 1868*************
The RW in Andrah Predesh failed yesterday and Croatia who had the initiative now attacked that region here:
http://www.erepublik.com/en/military/battlefield/37158
This battle will end shortly in a Croatian victory thanks in no small part to an inability of CoT and TWO to understand the importance of the battle. Thanks friends!
We have lost Tamil Nadu and will also lose Kerala, As a result, the Serbland NE and the Indonesian NE fail as no border exists. We can then RW these regions back and it will be as you were. See below:
Croatia and India are lucky. So is China. The second CoT front to attack China has been set back yet again, and we are now closer to CP elections in the US.

time to kick some thai booties & serbilanders..!!!
Well I like it until the very end when u said that CoT will use India to attack China. Oh come on, wait is Thai going to attack China? Are you joking? Croatia is going to win war with Indonesia, thats obvious. CoT is not taking any action in the war against China, as they are having good relations.
USA, Brazil and Spain are trying to find a solution to triple NE China. This is the reality for the last 2 weeks, and we all know that. Anyway, we may now have only 2 MPPs but even before when we were in EDEN we had like 5 which are pretty useless as Greece and Croatia would not be able to fight for us.
I know that our gov is doing everyting to sign MPPs with other countries no matter which alliance they belong as we are seeking friendship. We are negotiating with everyone and we will see what will happen. India is a small country dude, our damage in a week is about 1 000 000 000 while some of the units make about 3 000 000 000... That says about our influence.
We have no chance in winning MPP war, but in RWs our weekly damage is bigger then Thais and we have much more money. It is the job of Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (we dont have this one I think) MoD and maybe MoFA to write something about the situation, which they didnt as we are a small country and everyone can get easily informed via chat and PM.
Vladimir, getting Croatia out of India is prio#1 and then to attack China. Most people have been surprised that they have failed, including me. As far as CoT attacking China, it is just as a damage drain, that much is obvious.
With CP election soon, I really question whether USA would attach China. As I said before, I offered to pay 50% of the MPP with Ireland, as we have a huge amount in common with them. No-one seems to have taken up the offer.
The fact is that a PM can only include 30 people and IRC is not the way to communicate a mass message as well you should know.
It took me 50 minutes to knock up this article, why the hell can't anyone in the government do the same?
Wrong. Getting Croatia out of India is priority for Indonesia not TWO especially not Serbia. We all know that Serbs want Croatia in Asia (or we dont?) because they are using Croatian core regions as bridge to their resources. While Croatia is in Asia, Serbia can sleep safe and sound.
Believe me, CoT is not going to attack China as they have no common border with them and Bulgaria is counting that China will join them after dissolvment of EDEN. MPP with Ireland would be right deal, but they want us to pay for it, which is wrong! If they really think we are allies they would pay their part of the deal, not ask us to do it. That is embarassing us and its unacceptable.
The fact is that gov had to work all day and I was on the some meetings, believe me India is planning everything. We wont let our people down I`m 100% sure. I agree that some ministries could write something more about this but yeah I hope they will be soon. Only thing I disagree is that you are putting this all on the current president who has nothing to do with the informing of the citizens, that is not his job.
You seem to be the good guy who is trying to help... If you are interested in some kind of a job or activity let me know.
Actually Vlad, based off the the meeting today (after you left) most of what you just said is incorrect.
Voted
Well, things have just gotten a whole lot worse: http://www.erepublik.com/en/military/battlefield/37136
As someone has just explained to me, this leaves us open to a complete wipe of India by Serbland.
There's no way that EDEN is going to dissolve. There's no way that China will join CoT. Ireland refused to join based on the reality of the situation of what joining CoT means. EDEN will survive, and I'm hardly a big fan...
We will fight to secure Andhra... @CFovetS how so? I still dont know why r u pushing this conflict, I backed off and u should have. The things I just said are obvious facts, which can be checked via MAP egov4you and simply talking to gov officials \o/
Um, Vladamir, the last thing you want to do is to win Andrha Pradesh as it will open us up for a complete wipe by Thailand. Check the map mate.
Great article, enlightening comments.
Subbed.
D & T -- great article, enlightening comments..now i am afraid of serbs. They are definitely going to stomp us and eat us alive. Please guide this eNation. We are not used to writing articles when we could call our guys / chat in IRC / skype. That could be the reason you are finding difference of opinions. Everyone here is as afraid as you are.
Govt. is a fail here. They didnt even inform us that you officially offered to put ireland mpp in place. Please stand for CP, we need guidance this term. We will be facing aggression from china, croatia, thailand and indonesia. we will be put to bonded slavery. please help us.
Forgive Vlad, he is a serbian n00b. He would be a double-agent imo. I dont know why he is supporting the govt. I think all along his intention is to derail us and gift our lands to serblands. A big fail Vlad.
Common guys, you want me to shake in fear like 😁. Get a grip of yourselves. Two of your guys are involved in cabinet thread. If you want to know what the govt. plan is stop the fear mongering.
You guys are trying to act as a opposition party. We (eIndians) do have our difference of opinions in the govt. But we never show them during a war. Before writing your "enlightening" articles, come to IRC and put your points for discussion and "HELP". There is a forum as well to voice your concerns.
This is a brilliant article... all respect o7

Seeing the big picture is how you play this game!
Voted HARD!!!
Let's hope this opens up some eyes
@Treian --> "Seeing the big picture is how you play this game !" --> we are doing just that. Your big picture stops at analyzing the map and mpp stacks, our big picture goes even further to bringing baby booms in RL. You wouldnt understand that. Aren't you the guys who came here for the bonuses and that you are crying now bcoz you may lose the bonuses !!!
Well aren't you the guy who asked "what will eIndia give you" when you came here 3 months back ? You guys are getting further from "integrating" here. Get something into your numb skull --> we (Indians) dont fight among ourselves in the open when there is a war coming. We do it after the war.
Great article! Very easy to read and understand. I agree with you that there should be more information dissemination from the government through the newspaper media. However, in the meeting yesterday, many things were on the table, facts and strategies laid out in an objective way. Our internal network of communication seems to have picked up really well. We are opening up new channels of communication too. o7
Great Article, Splendid Analysis..
I never said anything about Andhra. It is not started by Croats but by Indonesians to buy more time and ensure MPP fight.
Anyway RW for Andhra will be over soon and Croats will attack taking it...
There is no way I, or any other non RL-Indian person should run for CP. I wouldn't even have any 'foreigner' in the government bar 'special advisor' eIndia is for Indians. You guys have a fear about PTO's. You are absolutely right to be afraid of PTO's.
BUT
My guess is eIndians treat this as a social game with the strategy on top. Most of us non-RL Indians treat it as a strategy game with the social aspect on top. The game itself is changing, but particularly with alliances. I happen to think eIndia could be one of the game's powerhouses, but only RL Indians can make that happen. But to get into a position to do this, you will need help.
I'd like to think that that is why I, and others, are here.
We're not here to rob you, or take you over, we're here to help you. To wake up a sleeping giant.
More on this later
What? I`m not RL Indian also, so many are not... We all fight for India mate
We can take care of Thai booties but we don't want Dirty serb Holes!!!
moooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohahahahahahahahaha
