Join the new world

The US continues it's internal struggle while the UK's bridge to Portugal may have just collapsed beneath their feet. This issue will also hold it's first contest for Food/Gold.


ENEMY AT HOME

The current president of the eUS, Inwegan, has made his primary objective for this term to be defeating the current PTO party, the AFA. His secretary of state, Israel Stevens, has recently served as CP and did the same. The US has even withdrawn temporarily from armed conflicts, focusing it's energy on preventing the AFA from gaining too much support this upcoming congress election.

NAIVE

The UK and Canada were believed to have established a temporarily friendly war, to allow the UK a path to attack Portugal. The Canadian side has turned the war into something personal, as one official said that the UK had made the decision and attacked prematurely without agreement from the Canadian government. One eCanadian citizen also sai😛 "You brits might be backstabbers, but we sure as hell aint. Never ask Canada to betray her allies."

MERCENARY MACHINE

Mexico had been dominating Colombia in their recent war, however the smaller country gave everything it had in it's most recent resistance war, beating mexico comfortably. Mexico has responded with another NE and intends to begin a full assault once more. Much of Mexico also believes that gold was spent to buy Mercenary assistance for Columbia.
