Northern Alliance - The Death of EDEN
Stakerauo
The New World is going through a revolution, and we're all a part of it. ONE has dissolved, but who's next? This article will contain my thoughts and speculations on the matter!
Northern Alliance:
For a long time now, Norway, Finland and Sweden has been in discussion about founding and creating a new Northern Alliance. We've seen this before, and as a matter of fact, the Northen Alliance was the first alliance ever to be created in eRepublik. This new alliance is firstly being made because the Nordics are bored and want change, and is not a very strategicaly smart option, yet the people demand for it to happen. Later several other EDEN-, and Terra-counries have showed interest in maybe joining this alliance, may it happen.
Finland leaves EDEN:
One hour ago, Finland officialy left EDEN. This would never have happened if it wasn't for the Northern Alliance, and the Fins expect the Nords to immitate. This puts even more pressure on the Norwegians to also leave and join NA. It's hard for the Norwegians to decide, but with the news from Finland, there's almost nothing to do but put all their money in hoping for NA-babybooms.
The EDEN dictatorship:
Finland and Norway are two of the four remaining founders of EDEN. The others are Croatia and Romania. The treaty of the brotherhood claims that founding members got a certain set of privilegies which other members don't have, and with half of the current founders away, EDEN might techincally turn in to a dictatorship. As I remember from my three-month career in EDEN HQ, the regulare members aren't very found of this scheme at the same time as the leaders hate changes. In fact, the treaty of the brotherhood is exactly the same as it was when EDEN was founded in 2009. EDEN oozes of democrasy though, and of course, if a Croamanian ruled EDEN won't cause conflicts, it might always cause a trend. Roumers go that Terra is about to dissolve, and with EDEN-members leaving, some people might follow in their footsteps.
Thanks for reading! If you please, I would most certanly prefer that you leave a comment with your opinions and thoughts!

ALBANIA IS IN EDEN YOU FOOL
HAIL EDEN
It seems I had a sight in the future when I suggest leaving EDEN and joining a Nordic Alliance in my presidential candidacy of July. EDEN and ONE are over and you have to accept it.

Voted and I approve 🙂
Eden is dead long time ago.
Voted! Winter is comming and the north shall rule the eWorld.
voted : 3
Rest In Peace EDEN.
EDEN isn't dead, far from it imo. I'd really hate it to see Norway leave as well, but if that's the decision of the Norwegian people, who am I to disagree. We will, hopefully, continue our good relations. And I wish Norge all the best in her decision. o7
Norway belongs to sweden as mutch as sweden belongs to norway. We are borthers and sisters, we shall be united!

Voted! Interesting times lie ahead.
On a side note, the original leaves of EDEN is still my favourite countries in erep. Haha, I was feeling down for a month in erep when the original split up.
As far as I know, all EDEN members are currently equal. The advantage of being "founding" member was removed earlier this year, unless I'm mistaken.
And what left from the EDEN Originals - only Croatia and Romania.
The death of the Eden is the begining of the Nordic Alliance..... 😮)
If you ask me to this alliance has been dead for a loooooong time now.
V!
Interesting... we'll see
The original Northern Alliance also had eUK in it.
greetz
one of the founders of the original NA.
Interesting... we'll see (Feel like sunmannus).
Let this happen! Finland did the right decision!
Oh Stakeraou from a person who was 3 times CP i'm expecting to inform himself before typing something. According to last treaty (3 months ON) there is no advantage for founder countries.
@Nenya
You are probably right, I just seem to remember when Turkey wanted to join EDEN we were discussing the defention of members and founding members, and somebody said that founders had extended privilegies, and they were quite misspleased with it. I haven't been as active IG as I was, since I was last CP, so I haven't read up on everything, and I never noticed changes. I'm expecting my interest in this game to increase over the winter.
Either way, the main goal of this article was to
-was to inform Finland about our situation, so that Fins in general will understand if we don't throw EDEN away to join N/A, and to write in a way to so that other people, including those who read all I write, could find interest in it, and understand what's going on in the north.
