In Defense Of The eUK
Acacia Mason
For those who feel the need to check the weather forecast, NO, Hell did not freeze over this morning. I really am writing an article in support of the eUK. Though I have a history of being one who would sooner conquer the eUK then support them, times are changing and my attitude towards the eUK has changed with it.
Recent MPP signings by the eUK have a few people’s panties all up in a bunch. Is it suspect? maybe. Is it a sign of a forthcoming backstab? maybe. For now though, it is just what it is...an MPP signing. I know many will point to the history they eUK has of backstabbing. We must remember though that it is just that...history. Leaders and rainmakers change in every nation. What used to occur may not be the standard today. Should we really be gunning for Mr Woldy when nothing has materialized just yet? I think not.
Lets consider that we are currently stradling two alliances in Terra and EDEN. If we were to outright Acacia the button on the eUK, we would essentially be attacking an ally and that in turn would very likely lead to us being ostracized by Terra. It would leave us alone and in the cold and a prime target for NWO.
Lets also consider who is currently pushing the buttons in eCanada. In Jacobi we have the most experienced CP we have ever had. Rest assured that if he feels there is a real reason to Acacia the button...you can be darn sure he will do it. I have every faith in his vision and his decision making process. Until he thinks the eUK is an imminent threat, I will continue to support them as an ally and continue to be friendly towards them.
I know that we are all sitting back and watching some of our largest allies slowly get wiped from the map. Its frustrating, and the beastly alliance that is NWO is certainly making its presence on the world stage felt. Paranoia WILL start to set in as the threat gets closer to home. That same paranoia will magnify events like the eUK MPP signings. We must guard against reading too much into it. Place your trust in the Executive and let Jacobi and his team do what they were elected to do.
Rest assured though eCanada, as I begin to think about running for CP in May, It is not lost on me that a potential war with the eUK could very well fall within my term. If that is to be the case, and history repeats itself, how poetic it would be to find myself once again having the chance to Acacia the button and beginning our march to London once again. For now however, we wait, watch, and let Jacobi do what we elected him to do.
Yours In National Unity,

Declare them an enemy outright? Maybe not.
Trust them? We're idiots if we do.
Are we? We've had our moments.
Better to be the first to strike than the first struck.

Yes, the UK switched sides once. It was a big deal then because Erepublik was younger and an alliance shift like that had not occurred yet. However since then tons of countries have done exactly the same thing: Bulgaria, Italy, Poland, Spain, Brazil, Japan off the top of my head.
It really is quite silly that some are STILL making a big deal out of the UK. That history is ancient and completely irrelevant today.
Canada and the UK are so similar in culture and attitude (compared the Eastern Europeans at least), that good relations and an alliance between the two makes sense and is beneficial for both countries.
BTW, isn't the UK threatening our Irish Bro's? I sure hope no one is planning on selling them down the river.
No, Ireland is trying their best to provoke the eUK and are hoping the anti-UK sentiment is enough to drag us into their little war.
I would sell them down the river simply because eIreland are willing to sell us down the river in order for them to have a war with the eUK.
Would we gain any important resource regions by attacking UK? If not, why bother.
I think they have an oil region
You lost me at "In Defense Of The eUK."
