Regarding eGreek Citizenship.
Myronas
After consulting with the President of eGreece, I am ordered to issue the following advisory, in his name:
All citizens of allied counties are welcome to eGreece. Citizenship applications, are not to be reviewed until after the congress elections, in two weeks. Our foreign friends and immigrants, do not need citizenship in order to work, train or fight with us. Citizenship is needed only for voting, and they might want to vote for their congress candidates of the country of their origin. This measure is temporary and for security reasons only. Anyone interested for an eGreek citizenship is advised to be patient, apply again after the congress elections, and state the reasons for his application, which have to be something more than work or fight here, this can be done without eGreek citizenship anyway. Our foreign friends are valuable to our defence, economic growth and social development. They are very welcome. Still, everyone involved has to understand that we are overwhelmed by citizenship applications. We ask all applicants to be patient. There are security issues involved that concern everyone residing in eGreece.
Congressmen are advised not to approve citizenship applications until after the congress elections. Party Presidents are advised to contact their congressmen and ask them not to. They are also to contact the President of eGreece in order to discuss and conclude to a common policy regarding immigration and citizenship, that will be respected by all interested parties.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Well done.

Relax Hispalis, Apparently you dont have much experience in the game so let me explain...
PTO or political taceover is one of the major threats in the erepublik...PTO means that a hostile force takes political control through elections and starts unfolding a plan for the economical destruction of the country. Hyper-inflation, giving away regions, catastrophic taxes and minimum wage etc, etc..
So PTOs can only be done by people with citizenship, therefore citizenship is a very important thing and both individual applications and the general citizenship strategy are things that have to be planned and examined carefully...
voted
Sure, i know what it is... And i also know that although you are inviting us to come to Greece to pay taxes here, work here and defend this country.
You deny us the simple right to vote...
As you should know if you have the experience in the game... Citizenship can only be conceeded to 10% of population. So you can't ever suffer a take over due to conceding citizenship...
If this is gonna be the Greek policy... We probably have to look for another place who really want us there.
Just be being so inpatient you create suspision...
and be being so unwilling to understand the importance of Greece at the present time and why it has to be safeguarded at any possible way, shows that you dont care about Greece...
Hispalis, maybe you should post under a citizen and not an organization. You are making an issue out of something that hardly needs to be one. There are valid security concerns, if you can't understand that then you as an individual are welcome to leave. I don't know who this "we" is that you're speaking of.
I work a lot with immigrants and I have to tell you Hispalis I nevere, ever had this response.
This is the most normal pratice any country would do.
Voted, and thank you Greece for your hospitality.
voted
If i come to Greece and i pay as any othe citicen... Why dou you deny the right to vote??
There is no valid argument... As i said, only 10% of country population citizenship can be given. So TO is not possible...
What are you afraid of??
😒
Hispalis ... time to shut your cakehole, my friend. If you're not a PEACEr, you're doing PEACE's work.
Mighty Zontar here, ex-eCanadian and now proud eGreek FULLY AGREES with eGreece's citizenship policy. I'm only 28 eRep days old here, but I've already experienced eHungarians (whom I call 'eHuns') forming a party there. We smoked them out after a while, but they did annoy eCanada for a while.
That being said, I myself had to wait several anxious days before my bona fides convinced the Government of eGreece to grant me a new life. And it did the right thing ... eGreece is surrounded by enemies, and I admire its Government's rigour and ability, both of which were sadly lacking in eCanada's.
All that to say ... be patient, for the sake of The eNation's Greater Good. Or if you're a crypto-PEACEr, go back to your mudhole and practice your social graces. In the latter case, you'll learn to understand and behave like the RESPONSIBLE citizens who are doing such a great job here. Also, while you think this all over, you'll be sure to find a sympathetic eHun who'll comfort as he'll press you to his ice-cold breast.
Mighty Zontar has SPOKEN! Malignerers, know your place.
Oh, uuuuhhhh ... and Voted, heh-heh ...

Never mind, sorry for loosing my temper.
You have to understand that eGreece was under occupation for more than a year game's time, until a couple of days ago. We are still under threat, and we are still at war. We do not afford the luxury of open borders. You have to be patient regarding citizenship. That's it, sorry if you don't like it, nothing can be done about it, for at least a couple of weeks.
Natasha, Myronas ... esteemed colleagues, there's reason to doubt Hispalis' motives and sincerity.
Since security is paramount, I'd turn down Hispalis' application.
With utmost respect.
MZ
Can i ask what will happens in 2 weeks...
Cause it is very possible that there is more than 10 percent citizenship request...
Wich of them are you going to give priority??
Myronas ... no apologies needed in this case, and none are appropriate.
Hispalis is provocative, which leads one to believe that there's a solid chance that he's a PEACE plant.
And what I said earlier: I wasn't making stories when I said that eGreece really IS very well governed. Also, I feel that it is could serve not only as a good example for our allies to follow ...it's well-administered to the point of maybe becoming the nucleus for a major anti-PEACE campaign.
Pay no mind to Hispalis.
MZ
P.S. I think I'm discovering a talent in me. Is there a Ministry of Propaganda where I can take night courses between fights? Lolll ...
As stated above, the President of eGreece will discuss immigration and citizenship with the party presidents, and then they will instruct congressmen to follow the policy will they decide. I am certain that everyone who has a valid reason to request citizenship will have a fair chance, but there is no point in rushing to give away this 10%. I cannot say more, because it's neither my place, not my responsibility. I only ask you to be patient. For all I know, everyone's application might as well be accepted in due time.
voted! We won our freedom after some bloody days.. Please be patient.. The war has NOT finished yet and we have to protect ours and YOURS future..
LOL
I'm not a Peacer xD I'm just a citizen from a invaded country... Who is looking for a new place to live.
And as you will understand. I'd like to be able to be in my new country as in the old one, with all the rights and the duties...
It is a very pover answer to accuse me of being a PEACE member.
Just tell me... Wich are the plans in 2 weeks?? How will you organize the migration??
Cause we are going to be a lot and we'd like to have rights as the rest of citizens. We don't want to be a 2nd class citizen.
I completely agree, and I believe that anybody who wants citizenship should respect their beliefs as well. They were doing just fine before we came and they can continue to do great after we arrive 🙂
I have withdrawn my request until the elections.
Hispalis, If you really cared about the country then you would respect their decision. I know they are doing what is best.
I respect the decission and the opinions of everyone. The give me some reasons and i have given reasons of my point of view...
I really think that the one who is not respected is myself.
😒
I respect your decision, but one of the reasons I left the eUS was to leave the political issues in the country. As a former Congressman of Virginia and a US Marine, I chose to take my own path by leaving for better opportunities elsewhere. I was, in fact, someone who participated in the liberation of eGreece.
As a solution, rather than to not allow any immigrants to become citizens, why doesn't the government create an immigration committee to investigate each of the applicants?
I think people posting on organizations should stop posting as organizations and submit their complaints as citizens, a request that was ignored once already.
I will agree with Hispalis. Tossing out accusations of being PEACE members just leads to USA levels of paranoia and we've seen how well that's worked for them. Besides, everyone knows I'm a PEACE member anyway and no one really cares.
No one denies citizenships, they will be processed in due time. Please be patient.
@ Ikarti
Cardinal Enterprises is my org by the way.
hispalis
since the citizenship is only for voting,i don't see any reason why you,and anyone,would not approve this policy
you can work here,create companies here,buy products here,sell them here but not vote here
you still can vote for your previous country
you don't want to vote for your previous country?you want to vote to a foreign to you country where you don't know the candidates?
besides,that is the policy every self-respecting government would follow
and nobody said that the congress will decline the requests
Voted.
Statement from a non-Greek, eGreek congressman! i.e me!
eHungary and eIndo (our de facto evil overlords) have PTO'd over 20 countries in the last 4 months. We, as eGreeks, have suffered a lot at the hand of invaders and PTO'ers. That is why we are cautious (not suspicious). All citizenship applications will be considered fully and fairly after the congressional elections. Please be patient. After nearly a year and a half under foreign occupation, we have learnt some stuff. We do it to stop all of us, eCanucks, eYanks, eGreeks even the bloody eBrits (myself included) safe from PEACE PTO attempts. Please bear with us, we have a lot of experience fighting as the underdog and know how to turn it around in the long term.
And it is generally considered good manners to post under your citizen profile, not an org. Only propagandists and spies (like me hehe) us orgs to post on comment threads.
PS just to clarify, I am an anti-PEACE propagandist and spy so don't jump on my back please
Voted. If anyone is desperate to participate in Greek politics, they should be patient to stick around 2-6 weeks to be able to do so at the very minimum. It's the least a person can do to show that they care about the future of Greece. Those who will not, were not sincere in their (presumed) wish to be a Greek in the first place, I would have to venture. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being on a "work Visa," "political refugee," or even "citizen applicant" status. It's a concept that works in the real world and the New World. In any case, the admins imposed an in-game cap on immigration, and between that and the fact that not all elected congress members are active, it is simply impossible to approve them non-selectively. Those who are here longer will have higher chances of becoming citizens, if only because they will be able to ask multiple congresses.
- A committee will be formed.
- Until there is something set up it is reasonable not to allow any more citizenships to be accepted. Until then it does not hinder you from doing everything else. I'm sure you're not upset at the higher wages and higher profits that you are making here? Citizenship has nothing to do with them.
It is sad, that we need to wait, but anyone should understand this decision. (Yes, we lost 2 opportunities to vote but after that, we will have many others.)

Μία ερώτηση
Με μια ματιά που έρηξα στις αιτήσεις,εντόπισα εναν με avatar σφυροδρέπανο κι έναν με κάτι σε ΚΟΥ ΚΛΟΥΞ ΚΛΑΝ
Με δεδομένο ότι στις επόμενες εκλογές τα κόμματα που παίρνουν μέρος,είναι ένα ακροδεξιό ,ένα δεξιό με λίγο κέντρο κι ένα κεντρώο με λίγο δεξιό,αναρωτιέμαι,ποι ά αίτηση θα γίνει δεκτή.Και οι δύο?Καμμία?Ή μία από τις δύο?Και ποία?
A question is arrissing.
If someone look over the citizenship applications,he will notice,one with communism avatar and one with Ku Klux Klan's.In next elections the parties are.One extreme right,one right-center and one center-right.
Which application will be granted? Either? Neither? Or one of them? Which one?
voted
I am quite disappointed to lose out on the xp you get for casting a vote, but I understand this decision, and as a former Congressman of Mexico, I understand the need to protect a country from PTOs.
I would suggest, however, that a smarter decision might be to selectively approve some applications even before, if there are concerns about PTOs - selecting specifically for people who are not from the PTO-suspect countries, and/or are "known" friends of Greece.
Then again, maybe voting isn't all that important - Americans voted for their own current Vichy government, after all...
Mighty Zontar your are right Hispalis is provocative..it is very obvious..
