Return of the Regions - Part I (updated)
Bundeskanzleramt
Part II:
http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/return-of-the-regions-part-ii-832364/1/20
Dear Germans and friends of Germany,
With all (but one) German region now in the Hands of the Italian, French and Hungarian forces, we started the negotiations regarding their return yesterday!
There is some good news and some bad news.
The bad news first:
We are currently not on the same page with the Italian demands and are having some major disagreements - I will not disclose details, but we are working hard to achieve a solution both nations can accept and the negotiations will probably take a little longer!
Now the good news:
Germany will receive all French and Hungarian occupied regions within the next week or two with the exception of Hesse and Mecklenburg.
France wants a border with Sweden and the easiest way to do so is to give them Mecklenburg for now. Mecklenburg will be leased to France for a symbolic 1 DEM. The region is not lost though and there is a way we can have it back if/when we want it.
Hungary does not put claim to any German region but has offered to stay in Hesse for a while as protection. The region, in the heart of Germany, would enable them to instantly counter any possible attacks, acting as a military base! For now Hesse will also be leased to Hungary for a symbolic 1 DEM. They have however also agreed to give the region back to us when we want it.
The Hungarians had two requests that we gladly met:
1st: The wars with France and Hungary will remain open to give us the option of future territory swaps.
2n😛
No MPP with Indonesia until those wars are closed.
Hungary also offered to start auctions to cover the cost of the RWs!
I urge everyone to not randomly start RWs!!!
All interested in contributing to the costs of the RWs or wanting to participate in the auctions, please contact me!
The following is the order the French and Hungarian regions will be returned in:
Brandenburg (http://www.erepublik.com/en/battles/show/6742 Fight RED!)
Schleswig-Holstein,
Westphalia,
Mecklenburg,
Lower Saxony,
Rheinland,
Saxony
I will try to keep everyone updated, so you can expect to receive updates regularly!
Best wishes
President Gobba

I'm sure Germany will rise soon!
It's good to be informed about what our government does.
Voted 🙂
I am so happy for this. Great work Gobba 😃
Good...but not great. vote
Strongly agreed.
I hope the problems with the Italians are not severe and can be solved in due course.
voted
Hopefully we get on the same page with eItaly ASAP.
I wanna move back to Bavaria. LOL
Good to know. Forward Germany!
What about the Italians?
DO they want to stay in Bavaria?
Good work Gobba, and of course, nice work PEACE GC.
At least we know what is going on, which is more than we can say from some previous administrations. I would rather loan some German regions to France, Italy and Hungary for their aid in liberating Germany and beating back the savage Poles and Swedes instead of handing everything over to our enemies who have routinely invaded our country since the introduction of the war module.
voted!
Its sad to know, that the negotiations with Italy are difficult. 🙁
Great work, by why have military bases when we can just have alliances?
To be honest I want my Hesse to be a part of eGermany.
This is great news but the Italians cant have Barvaria. It is to important to Germany and we need its resoures and hospital.
Bavaria's hospital got destroyed by the Poles and Swedes when they took the region. We also have three High Grain regions, of which Bavaria is only one.
In my opinion, lending Italy the region for a set period of time as token of appreciation for them helping us beat back the Poles and Swedes is the least we can do.
Vive la France! Éljen Magyarország!
Why Hesse? Why dont they take a part of Eastgermany - Posen or Schlesien or so? We need protection at our borders and not in the center of our country...
So, the negotiations have begun... Good luck.
Thanks to Italy/France/Hungary.
Of course Mecklenburg maybe isn't lost, but it's not german too and so still aren't united 😕.
🙂 Germany will receive all regione except: Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Schleswig-Holstein, Brandenburg, Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Thuringia, Hesse, North Rhine-Westphalia, Rhineland-Palatinate, Saarland, Baden-Wurttemberg, Bavaria. HAHAHAHAH
I'm glad that there'll be more of eGermany soon - though I'm with keksjanik in weeping for my beloved Hesse...
As always, thanks for the update, Mr. President!
but Germany needs Barvaria Italy is fine they have high resource regions. Germany has three why cant Italy take Saarland or some region like that. Barvaria is to important.
@Zotti & Zotti
It is better that they should take part of western Poland - Mecklenburgia or Berlinovitze 😉
@ zotti & zotti:
first og all, posen is a polish region since after world war 1, schlesion belongs to poland since after world war 2. so those are NOT eastgerman regions.
and thats why it is hesse:
"The region, in the heart of Germany, would enable them to instantly counter any possible attacks"
it's not the plan to protect the border, the plan is to be able to launch a counter attack after a swedish/polish first strike on the german border regions.
The main problem is that the MPPs dont give protection against TO attcks...
If Hungary gives back every territories, then Sweden and Poland may try another TO in Germany :/
Hopefully we wil have citizenship soon and then we can sign an MPP between our countries.
PS:
And i also hope there wont be problem with Italy...in fact they dont neeed any germen region...they already have high grain and medium wood :/
Just 7 days Gobba wrote:
"Sweden and Poland are willing to give us most of our regions back in time. They are however not willing to hand over Schleswig Holstein and Brandenburg. (Two regions native to Germany with high grain).
We have not accepted their offer"
"Even if I now accepted such an offer, in the long run, the next German President or the one after that, would want those regions back! And there is a pretty good chance that this whole spiral of "broken words" and "mistrust" resulting in a war would start all over again"."
GRR! Sweden and Poland wanted to give Germany most of regions back, except TWO. This was the BAD news.
Today Gobba wrote:
"Now the good news:
Germany will receive all French and Hungarian occupied regions within the next week or two with the exception of Hesse and Mecklenburg."
WOW! Hungary and France want to give Germany most of regions back, except TWO. This is the GOOD news.
Muahaha!
First of all, Hesse and Mecklenburg are non-vital regions, and they are to be returned in a set timeframe, whilst Brandenburg and Schleswig-Holstein are 66% of our High Grain regions, and a very important part of the German economy.
Then again, it's always easier to loan some regions to your friends who have come to help you as it is to your enemies who want to completely destroy you.
@Borzymir
Ya it is good news except the Italy part because these people are our allies. Also POland and Sweden wanted 2 out of the 3 vaulable regions in Germany. WE could notlet that happen. Gobba is doing everything right here and is letting us know what the government is doing. HUngary and Rance have good intentions.
Many thanks to our french and hungarian friends. It shall be not forgotten.
I am very thankful for the French and Hungarian generosity, they only take two regions of negligible economic importance, and it seems they do it for good strategic reasons that aim at threatening Sweden and Poland (which alone is worth those two regions).
I hope that we eventually get some friendly agreement with Italy, too. I'd really like to get good relations with our PEACE neighbors, and if not both sides are happy with a deal for either the return or the adequately paid lending of our regions, this may become a problem.
good show of friendship
Zotti,
die grenzen sind durch Hessen geschützt.
Wir haben einen MPP mit Ungarn.
Sobald die Sweden oder Polen angreifen, können die ungaren direkt von Ungarn aus Deutschland unterstützen.
Great work - thanks to Hungary and France 🙂
you have your freedom again, dont screw it up
Glados, where are you?
Borzymir: Sweden wanted, not Poland. Poland would just take the territory Sweden would give to us.
GLaDOS: Screwing up is not an option, it won't happen again.
Yeah! Hungary, France, Italy, Indonesia... PEACE is very friendly, full of good intentions and fights for liberating nations.
HA-HA-HA!
When are they going to return Ural (high iron) and Caucasus (high oil) Western Siberia (high iron, oil, wood) back to the Mother-Russia (their ally in PEACE)? I will tell you:
NEVERRR EVERRR!
When they 'liberate' a country they take what they want. Hungary just DON'T NEED your land for raw materials, because theay already have high grain, iron, oil regions. Sweden, Poland, Finland are in minority in Europe - admins didn't give them any high region. That's why they HAVE TO to take them from neighbours to balance thair economy. And they will take them.
Seems I have joined at a difficult time.
But all the more rewarding when the dire situation has been escaped from.
Darn. My organization is based in Bavaria, so this is bad news for me o_o.
@Borzymir : at least we give back some regions...
Btw since when are you the defender of "mother russia"? 🙂
Or are you just waiting to TO Russia too and you want every high region of it...? 😛 🙂
I am not a defender of Mother-Russia itself. I am agains hypocrisy, against cheap Hungarian propaganda.
Every country is hypocrite in this game, just accept it.
For example: You tell us to liberate Urals and Caucasus too, but you invaded Germany.
USA proudly liberated CentralGreece, but they left Germany alone and they support the Croation oppression in Serbia.
etc etc...
No, no. It is not hypocrisy to attack somebody. Do your homework and check in a dictionary.
I am not, we are not hypocrites.
First: we claimed that we need German high grain, we want a revenge and we want to destroy this country. And we did it. Without all that nice propaganda words for dummies. Without lie.
Secon😛 Poland do NOT tell that you HAVE TO liberate Ural and Caucasus, because it's not nice to have others' land. Certainly not. Want it - have it. But do not tell the world this bullshit about your will to 'liberate' countries.
USA, Sweden, Croatia, Romania, Spain, Finland, Poland... We helped Greece, right. Not because we cry: 'freedom to everyone!' like PEACE countries do. But because Greece is our ally and it has high iron. No propaganda, just friendship and common bussiness. And no ex-Atlantis state is going to occupy Central Greece, like you do with Russians regions. Regions of your so called "ally".
Hungary is protecting the Russian High regions from an ATLANTIS TO.
And here are the facts, Hungary, Italy and France, supported by PEACE, have pushed back Sweden and Poland, who destroyed Germany, and are now in the process of giving back the regions to Germany. If that isn't liberating, I don't know what is.
"I am not, we are not hypocrites."
So EVERYONE is hypcrite, just you are the ones who arent...
OK 😉
good news
PEACE is also in the process of taking over the danish regions that sweden is holding on to to protect denmark from PTOs from, oh lets say Hungary or Brazil, the usual culprits. But PEACE is "freeing" those regions as well, despite denmarks reluctant to have them back.
I also find it hilarious that eItaly is apparently making demands on a nation they're liberating out of their own choice, how is that any better than sweden? Atleast we let you know beforehand what we want 😛
