One of the most successful wars ever.
Sossu
An hour ago UK recaptured the last region held by Canadians in the latest war fought on the British Isles. Though we have now been “defeated” on paper, Canada is the only and true winner of this war and I wholeheartedly congratulate you. When we look at the goals of the campaign, Canada bashed UK with all they got and crammed humiliation down their throats. Canada’s goal was solely having fun and dick around with UK. I doubt Acacia Mason expected such success when he first attacked Scotland, but as the invasion continued and continued, we got yet another, very heavy proof that UK is indeed the eNation sucking the hardest.
There were literally no expectations of success when Canada attacked alone against UK and all their MPP😒
. Yet on August 19th, only 3 British regions remained. It took 24 days to finally shove you guys off from Britain, and the entire Phoenix wasn’t capable of doing it. It took France and the Netherlands to take half of UK in a complicated and unnecessary operation to stop you from invading London. Had Phoenix paid the smallest attention towards their member nation, you could have been stopped way earlier. So in the end, Canada held territories against the entire Phoenix alone for 24 days. This is one of the most successful military appearances in the history of eRepublik.
This war wasn’t fought only for giggles. Canada pushed all the way to the northern parts of Norway, shoved UK from Nord-Norge and opened a way for Finland to pull a friendly wipeout on Norway, who had been PTO:ed and had severe MPP-sets against themselves. Wiping them out cleared these MPP-sets, and once the PTO has been quelled, Norway can once again live in peace. Finland proceeded southwards and cleared the rest of Norwegian territories with the help of some allies from Russians who had established a base there. This opened a possibility for Finland and Norway to forge a deal that will leave Vestlandet, or Valhalla as the Brits used to call it, to the hands of Finland for the end of the year. The oil found from Vestlandet will strengthen the Finnish economy and this move couldn’t have been pulled without your help. On behalf of Finland I thank you. After all, the gods in Valhalla can finally host drinking games with people who can really stand up to the spirits.
In their latest stroke of genius, UK has activated the Spanish MPP😒
. We might get back to bashing the Brits sooner than we think.
If you ever feel down for some reason, brave Canadians, remember these two things:
24 days.
They were saved by these guys.

I have to compliment Canada's effort also, and say a war well fought 🙂
GGRyan
UK Deputy Prime Minister
Well done.

See you in London, next week \o/

All truth.
Viva Canada!
Articles like that are essentially lies to oneself, as everyone who reads know that it is really bieased and out of context of the whole picture of what has been going on in the time of this supposedly geniously led war.
But what else did I expect? I already know that Sossu is only real good at picture articles on general erepublik theme (like the one on the military module) and REALLY biased and full of hypocrisy when it comes to things like this.
I would like to thank GGRyan for not being a fag/troll.
Canada will Acacia the button soon....I hope!
I thought this article was going to be trolling the US invasion of Russia...
It wasn't entirely alone, I was one of the many eUS citizens who moved to Canada to fight the Brits o/

great article Sossu. Canada has a strong future in V2 because of the north american timezone. Looks like the bro's got the advantage.
Canada won only because of his time zone.
@Crazy
You could say that at ANY reporter trying to cover an EDEN/PHOENIX war. While Sossu could in fact be biased, I still like to read his articles, as REGARDLESS of what alliance he may or may not be biased with, he's still a good read.
@eSupernova: No, because WE'RE AWESOME! 😃
@Ernesto-Che-Guevara
Thousands of gold spent, Norway back with no nore activated MPP's, Finland healthy, the best time we have had since WWIII.
and oh yeah... proved once again that Phx doesn't give a rats ass about the uk. Even some well known Brits who came into ecan IRC admitted that going over to phx was a mistake 🙂
We will be back... Go Spain! \o/
And thanks to our American friends who joined in on the war, and letting us join in on yours into FER. Great times.
Well done.
24 days. Thousands of Golds Spent. 0 Results. Gratz Canada \o/ x2
Is it just me, or do Phoenix trolls get weaker and lamer by the day?
Hear Hear! ~ oh an ignore these foolish trolls (they clearly don't understand the way the game works)
The admins stupidity and incopetence won. I mean did they expected that ppl would deprive themselves from sleep to participate in those patethicly ridicuolous battles that v2 introduced.
I like this! Canadia is osom : 3

erm... I remember attacking the wall at 2:55am Ontario time trying to offset peace tanks during v1.
Don't like it? Stay in bed.
Where Goebbels spoke about tactical withdrawal and retreat, Sossu claims victory XD
Where Karlista spoke of sarcasm
Trent spoke of crying phoenix trolls
Also, Canada won and kicked ass, kinda shows how much phoenix cares about the Uk
Well said...I could not agree more with this article and I also extend my sincere thanks to all the allies who showed their support.
Cheers!
Hail eCanada!
Hail EDEN!
Hail Broliance!
Good job Canada. You guys raped. It was an honor to serve w/ you guys.
I support this article but i could see it as being a little douchie when read by an UKer but yeah we kicked there ass's all the way to dover
It should be noted that the UK was getting curb stopped until they were saved by France.
France.
penguin bowling France.
To everyone saying Canada wasted tons of gold, and what about the UK? If we win a region, you will have to take reattack it and it will cost exactly the same thing to attack the said region, I actually think that phoenix spent more gold than Canada based on the fact that they we're getting france in and had to liberate the Brit after, wich is twice the cost we need to open a single front.
Go Canada \o/
Go timezone o/
Let's do it again.
@The grinch :
UK Have Finland War since yesterday and their attack on Spanish Original territory. They can attack Vestlandet as soon as they want. It's a completely waste of Golds.
And I’m not saying that because I’m French. If any EDEN country does awesome Job, i don't have problem with that. But the facts are simple:
1. Canada waste Thousands of Golds.
2. 0 UK Regions are Canadian now.
3. Even if your country managed to conquer some UK regions, you can say thx to your Time zone and to USA. Without Opponents in the Battlefield, even my grandmother can conquer UK.
But i perfectly understand if you prefer think Canada is awesome and can beat 9 PHX countries alone. But i prefer facts
24 days. Thousands of Golds Spent. 0 Results BUT MUCH FUN HAD. Gratz Canada \o/
This game is about fun if your playing it cause this is your serious life then well enough said.
@Ernesto - dude get your head out of your ass, lol
1) Canada wasted gold... bust UK and France would have to waste the exact same gold to get those regions back - failpoint
1b) our economy BOOMed because of this war
2) Yes... and your point? the game is about fun, not world domination XD
3) EVERYONE uses timezone combat, don't pretend you guys didn't constantly retreat/reattack as well - naivefail
"1b) our economy BOOMed because of this war"
Boom and Bubble.
Bubble.
Bubble.
Why don't you get your own ass out of your fellow Canadians. Its pretty disgustingly gay.
@Ernesto-Che-Guevara
Gold is here to be spent. It would be wasted if it wasn't used. If you want to sit around and do nothing be my guest. We had fun, we all ranked up and we helped out friends. And watching the uk CP crumble under the pressure and quit was in itself worth it.
And as for wasting gold.. LOL... I think you all better have a word with your noobs. Every day I was attacked by an unarmed noob using 20% damage boosters, so instead of getting hit with 1 I was hit with 1.2 damage. I also got to enjoy watching greenhorns attacking me with grenades (.19g a piece) which was easily fixed with food from Canada, costing ME less AND keeping Canadian money in the system rather than it going to the admins. Talk to them before you start lecturing us about spending gold.
If your grandmother could have done it, get her set up with an account and lets watch her. I have a job opening in my titanium company I will set aside for her.
I would like to thank GGRyan for not being a fag/troll. x2
It was a great war indeed and we can hold our heads high!
Hail eFinland!
Hail eCanada!
Hail EDEN!
I must say that the war dealt greater results than we ever thought. Now imagine that was us goofing around. What do you think we are capable of if you really tick us off? Please eUK and eFrance on behalf of a military itching to keep the fight going after kicking our feet back, bring it on to Newfoundland, and just see what we can do when we defend what is ours.
And thanks GGRyan for not being a loser about the whole thing. Good on ya.
indeed good fighting.
We haz fun!
Che-Guevara guy is really obsessed with RL world problems, dude if you want gold just say so...
Canada haz da pots of gold!
lol
argentina has sinked 4 royal navy ships in the 80's.furthermore, they several damaged 20 ships. do u know what?they lost.there's no moral victories in war.who stays wins.
168 votes. Even EDEN players know this article is bs (smile)
Good times. 😃
It was epic.
Thanks Canada!
good times
lol at phoenix trolls; i refer to what chucky said, penix spent more gold in this war because 1) they need to spend the same gold that we did to take back a region and 2) because you brought france into it you have to spend double the gold to swap it back to united faildom.
we win again!!
i have to agree with whoever said phoenix trolls are getting weaker by the day...
i don't believe in phoenix
i don't believe in phoenix
(every time you say it a phoenix troll dies)
