[MoFA] Interview with Sweden

Day 2,688, 16:35 • Published in Norway Norway • by Norwegian Consulate


This weeks interview was with our old friend and self proclaimed "Eternal MoFA" of Sweden, Maze Putin Stalfitta!

1. I am sure most Norwegians know you by now but could you please introduce yourself for those who might now know you.
I am Maze Putin Stalfitta formerly known as Maze87, Eternal MoFA of eSweden, Member of Fredrok4, First man in eSpace, Bringer of feminist party to erepublik, Old Commander of Nordic Assault Squad and so on. I have played for 4,5 year and havent really focused on anything but all 3 modules(economy, political and military) pretty likewise. I play for fun even if that is hard to belive 😃

2. Sweden left Asgard to pursue Orion but as we all know Orion never managed to actually become an alliance. What went wrong?
Some country in South America couldnt handle their congress and that country had close allies that also pulled out.. I dont blame them, if i came from South America i wouldnt understand democrazy aswell 😛 (*joke* no butthurt please). No but when i was MoFA in December we got in a similar situation so it wasnt really taken out of the clouds or how you say it 😛



3. You have had recent battles with Denmark and currently hold one of their regions, was this a Training War or a real war and if so can you explain how it came about?
*Inofficial* -->There are some good danes (you find some of them in eSweden and there are some evil ones that dont want Swedish-Danish friendship but rather hang with ze Germans so we wanted to help the last living good Danes(we got reports about Stente started building concentration camps for people in eDenmark who went to IKEA and likes meatballz..Even children who likes playing in the snow were supposed to be sent there..) So we wanted to help them out.
*Official*--> We were bored saw a chance of war for the Swedes(TP-medals, less boring and so on) and ofc all know that Denmark is South Sweden!

4. I have heard “rumours” that have said Sweden is pursuing Pacifica membership and judging by your MPPs I would say they would give weight to those rumours. Is Sweden actively pursuing Pacifica membership?
No, Pacifica and Asteria share many allies and we have some old friends in Pacifica as well as some new/old. Currently Sweden is non alligned but not neutral, we would like to be able to take offers aswell as having an MPP-stock worth paying for that also makes us harder to invade.




5. What is Sweden’s opinion on Norway founding/joining Nebula?
I havent thought about it much but with the interest towards the countries you currently work with i totaly understand why, If it is a good way to go i let the future tell.

6. Originally you were Maze Putin. Why the name change to Maze Putin Stalfitta?
Maze Putin is IRC name formerly was Maze87, Stalfitta is an act of trying to start an Swedish nobility like Jernkuuk, von Heldorf and the poor, lousy and slutty Af Hora from the region of Bohus..

7. You have spent much of your political life as the Swedish Minister of Foreign Affairs and have served many times in Asgard HQ. Do you think you will ever run for President?
I dont think so cause with the job and small children + a lot of time in the gym and so on i dont think i could be as active as i would like to be if i were and that would take a lot of time from government to fill up and we dont have that many really high active players in Sweden nowadays.. And i blame Plato and erepublik development team for that.



8. Do you ever see Sweden and Norway in an alliance together again, or is Norway to small to carry around?
Sure the strength is hard to measure due to tactics and Sweden is a low pop country aswell and with the game getting worse and worse nothing is written in stone. But a good relation towards each other i think will hold up for a long time. Unless we some day need fruit bonus..

9. And lastly. If you could wipe one nation off the eRepublik map for all eternity who would it be and why?
Pakistan ofc… The people there only have sand between their ears.. If they havent eaten their ears already that is..



Thats all for now folks! This will be my last article as the MoFA for now as I will be retiring the position after two months of service. Im not sure if these articles will be continued but I hope they are. Thank you for reading them and taking part!



As always don't forget to V,S,S&E!

Kind Regards,

Joshua Morriseau
Minister of Foreign Affairs
