While reading in the media of ePortugal I came across an article written by their Ministry of Defense. This article talks about their new movement. They have created the “Corpo Militar Júnior Português” also could be known as the “Portuguese Junior Military Corp”. This new military group that gives out weapons and other war supplies to Portuguese Junior Military Corp working in the companies that creates their supplies. These are Weapons q1 in Portugal, Iron in Portugal, Food in Portugal q1, and Grain in London (currently in Brazil).

Interview

Q: As a citizen of ePortugal, what do you mostly do out of these three; military, business man, or are you mostly a political person?
A: I am defiantly a politician. It has been since a year ago that I've been playing the political side of the game.

Q: How did you start out as a politician?
A: I had some experiences as a businessman, but all stopped for the moment. I also had a brief adventure into the Media with a newspaper that gathered the main news from around the world. After a couple of months with no help and a writing time of 3 hours a piece, I had to put it aside too.

Q: Have you stayed with one political party or have you jumped around?
A: I have stayed mostly in the same party. There was a time in the middle that I moved into a neutral party that existed in ePortugal.

Q: What do you like a lot of about ePortugal?
A: Well, I'm RL Portuguese, so I think that answers it.

Q: What is ePortugal's relationship with other countries?
A: Portugal is a PHOENIX member, so we follow alliance policy on foreign affairs.

Q: Do you know why Portugal joined PHOENIX instead of any other alliance?
A: That was waaay before my time. But ePortugal ****IS*** a member of PHOENIX since the beginning of it as PEACE at the time.

Q: How do you feel about ePortugal's opening of the Junior Corps?
A: The Junior Corps is a nice idea and addition to our armed forces. Well, it is the beginning of our armed forces after we got wiped. There is already a rather large private army in ePortugal. So this was made for new citizens in mind.

Q: What about the PTO attempts being made to your country?
A: All PTO attempts so far have been unsuccessful. We defeated the Eden CP candidate by 160 votes.

We have also mannaged to take controll of all 4 parties, some harder then others. It was a voting down to the last minute for the PPs but with 3 resillient heroes that were up all night until 8am, we mannaged to get the needed votes. Less then 2 hours to close, we were down 17-11 in one party and we ended up at 21-20. Hard, difficult, but we got the job done.

All you need is to keep faith.

Q: What do you think about the alliances attacking each other through PTOs?
A: I hate PTOs. I think they are an unfair weapon for it is mostly sheer size of numbers and nothing more

Q: Why do you think EDEN wasn't very successful at the PTO of the President's office?
A: That is rather obvious. All focus was on Russia so we kind of flew under the radar and made it. Should Russia not be on that situation I have no doubt PT would be a TO country by now

Q: How is the economy in Portugal compared to other countries?
A: Portugal has a small population, around 1k, so the economy isn't very large. We were wiped off the map and we have yet to regain control of our main region, Lisbon that has high grain. Brazil is holding it for us so that way we have an easier life on the 25th, when the congress elections come around. The economy at the moment is rather a resistance economy and not a full running one.
