eRepublik reaches 200,000 alive citizens
Dear citizens,
There is some news around the world that is worth mentioning, like the fact that two months after the burst of the third World War, PEACE's victorious march seems to have reached a halt point: after being wiped out, Canada slowly recovered most of its regions through Resistance Wars; in Europe, Russia didn't succeed in conquering Finland`s Nord Norge region. Neither Hungary nor Serbia succeeded in the attempt of conquering Central Croatia. Greece defeated Turkey several times during this period. Spain has probably deliberately chosen to be wiped out in order to “get rid” of all those MPPs helping France. Now Spain is doing the same thing as Canada, recovering its regions one after another through resistance wars, and is also declaring war against France. After a long time, the USA is the one pushing the “attack” button, trying to recover one of their regions from Portugal.
A series of victories for Eden/Fortis lately, some of them smaller but good for morale, others very important. All these could announce a more stable balancing of power distribution.
But at least for today, we should forget about the wars, battlefields, guns, strategies, marching soldiers, screams and suffering. Today we should celebrate, all of us, like brothers, no matter the nationality! What is there to celebrate? Well, if we look back over the past two to three months and count the improvements added to eRepublik, we could find some reasons, but the true reason for celebration is that eRepublik has reached 200.000 citizens! One fifth of a million alive citizens, no Organization or dead citizens counted here. A big number that is!
Of course, the eRepublik team is very proud of this achievement. This is the result of two years of hard work, passion and dedication to this project, which aims to offer you, our citizens, a fun time and lots of new friendships. We could not have turned eRepublik into such an interesting game without the help of our citizens, whom we thank. Both the “pillars” who are more than 1 and a half years old and can remember eRepublik having only 3-4000 players, as well as the newer citizens who remember the V1 launch of eRepublik having some 30,000 citizens. Since then, eRepublik has grown ever larger, month after month, now reaching over 200,000 citizens. What a journey, we would say!
When our dear Plato (the historical one) was born, Athens was at the height of its power, and in those times excluding slaves there were some 190,000 citizens. We have more citizens than Plato had townsmen!
In order to celebrate this day, we are proposing you three contests in the forum, and three on Twitter, with questions about eRepublik. The contest will start today (day 643), in the forum at 04:30, 06 and 08 AM, and on Twitter at 04:30, 06 and 12 AM. To participate on Twitter, you need <a href='https://twitter.com/signup'>an account</a> in order to follow eRepublik and see the questions. Also, you should answer this way: “@erepublik your_answer.”
Of course, there will be some winners (for example, the funniest eRepublik related story), and the winners will receive some prizes! Good luck!
Updates:
-our first lucky winners from the Twitter contest are Ryo E , pepsiMIN and alby. More will follow !
Regards,
The eRepublik Team

Long live eRepublik \o/
\o/
10% of those 200 000 are most likely multi's....
shush
I wouldn't call less than half of the regions most, but that's just me I guess.
Kudos for reaching this far. I will refrain myself from complaining about the bugs due to this special occasion. For now.
cool
Congratulations eRepublik!
I Am INDIAS UNCLE SAM
200,000 suckers. Yep. Still one of em.

congratulations everyone!!!
Nice.
100
Congratulations eRepublik!
we will see the day which you got 300,000 citizen...
viva erepublik
viva e-iran
200k citizens? is that so!
if there are 200k players who can read (cause they can sure browse the menus, read the events and the press headlines), how do you explain that the most popular articles in the international media get 1000-2000 votes and 100-300 comments? out of 200.000 possible votes/comments.
we didn't have enough propaganda in the game, now there's also the admin propaganda.
200,000 living ePeoples? for,all respect )) keep movin`
Cheers from eUKRAINE
os lo aveis creido? que pena me dais.
if you fix the bugs maybe you would have 200000000000 by now!
Congratulations!
the best is yet to come!!!
la mai mare...
and get ride of the bugs..pleaseeeee!
You should really stop using the decimal point as a thousand-separator; for a moment, I thought you meant we had 200 alive citizens.
Thought "I could have sword we had more than that!"
It don't see like a big number. A oGame server has like 100.000. Of course, on this one a user as lots of data, but anyway.
I think the most impresive sucess of eRepublik is the rules of the game. How complex and interesting strategies based on these rules are. This game is interesting 24/7.
Lets hope "the admins" (as some users chose to name then) understand why this game and don't try to convert this game in something else that is not. ( "raise a NGE", if you are a pre-CU vet, you will understand ).
AWesome. YOu countinue to pump work into this game.
You STILL fail to fix your persistant server issues!
Interesting!!!!!
YAHOO!!!
..clear multis you will get result..how many ''alive'' will you have then
anyway gz ...
Erepublik reaches 150.000 multi accounts
Bújtatott KARD kampány!
Congratz erep

With 200,000 alive it makes me wonder how many are dead.
...now to get rid of the multis
Woot
SIXTEEN THOUSANDMAXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXX
Congratulations!
I'm new in Erep
you should also omit the dead people from the rankings systems. or implement a system to do that.
And how many really active?
If u include multilang interface than number of people will be greater
well i must say it's a really big party to celebrate 200k citizens...
