Interview with Elagabalos

Day 1,795, 03:05 • Published in Albania Turkey • by James Sonny Crockett
Elagabal, tell me about your RL location, age and something other things.
I’m 22 years old and I live in Switzerland. Outside eRepublik I like to go to training and hanging out with friends.

How you come to eRepublik?
I was active in a forum and a Croatian friend, MarinHRV ingame, brought me to the game. And there wasn’t Albania, so I had the choice between USA, Croatia or Israel. I choose Israel because I wanted to met RL Israelis. But I got bored after some weeks and was inactive for about 2 years. Then I heard about that Albania will be added soon and so I joined the game again and talked to Kris Hasa to come to USA and support the Albanian Unity Party. I’ve met aLalban, today the first and current only original Albanian God of War.

What did you do for the Albanian babyboom?
I made promotion in a forum and brought some Albanian players, that all are still active to play and fight for Albania and hold Albanian citizenship. Some others are in the USA, one is in Phillippines and the other one is in Germany.

Did you get Albanian citizenship after Albania was added? Was you active there then?
Yes, I got Albanian citizenship and was one of the first Albanian players. But then I wasn’t much active because I thought that my mission was accomplished. After inactive times I went back to Israel, where I was “born”. I’ve met Formic, better known as Daniel Ender, a known Troll from Bolivia. We became friends and built together with Tom Kafir and Yaniv the Team Rocket. Today I’m broken with Ender because of different views, but I say that was a great time with him.

Then you went back to Albania and built a in this time strong MU and the 2nd biggest party in Albania. And your old friends from AUP time became rivals. Why was that so?
In fact I didn’t want to support eternal presidency from Napoleon 54, even when I always respected him as a person. But everyone player should have the chance for the presidency. So I started the rebellion in form of articles against Kris Hasa, he became my biggest rival. And I started to troll, so half of Albania was call me a traitor and I would be a spy of ONE. Yes, I have Macedonian friends like Admiral Trench, Gushtafar and DevilsBreed (former MKDHero). In reality: I was never in contact with ONE HQ, Macedonian or Serbian government. It was the art of Trolling.

You switched between Israel and Albania, why did you go to Israel again?
Israel was on PTO by pro ONE players and so I went back for defending against them. I became member of the glorious MU Sayeret Matkal and I was Knesset member. Then I had short time in the US Seal Team 6 and then back to Sayeret Matkal. I talked to Amun Nefer, one of my Jewish bros, after ICA did open a branch in Israel. In ICA I’ve met great people like spunk BG, Irishbhoy1967, Padraig, MUFC92 and so on. Then I went back to Albania again.

After then you decided to dissolve the group and went out of Albania. How do you feel in Colombia? Would you come back to Albania one time?
Colombia is great! I’m never bored there and the people are also great. It’s awesome here. I don’t know if I would ever come back to Albania, but I don’t think so. I think I will stay in South America, in Colombia, because it’s great there.

But if you will come back and would be CP there, what would you do?
First I would go out of EDEN but still hold MPPs with these countries. With this decision I want to unite Albanians to fight more for herself. I think EDEN isn’t good anymore since Turkey (no offense) joined. And I would try to improve the relationships with CTRL (if this alliance still exists then lol) countries, especially USA and Brazil. Albania could be good strategical partner for them because to block the other Balkan countries to go to Western and so protect their ressources.

May you will be the second original Albanian God of War after aLalban, how do you feel?
I’m feeling great, even when the eWorld is full of God of Wars. But it would be glory to be the second God of War, I appreciate aLalban a lot, he’s a really good guy. The current CP of Albania, festimbeqa, is great too and I know him personally. I appreciate kushtrimzz a lot too.
And of course I want to greet all my comrades from my former group of Plisat/Luanet!

Thanks for the Interview Elagabal, do you want to say anything?
I say from Emperor to Emperor: Salve!
