Join the new world

Domestic News:

Interesting news this week. Plato designs the “Battle of alliances” where alliances are against each other for the award of...”You all know the eRepublik background with the New World. As a reward for the effort, we will design a special branded background with the logo of the winner alliance that will replace the regular one for a week. This applies for all our other Social Media channels like Facebook, Twitter, Youtube.”

Belgium will also be in the alliance which is called Friendship Over Everything (FOE) with countries in that alliance being:
Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Chile, Indonesia, Montenegro, New Zealand, Paraguay, Peru, Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), Slovakia, Slovenia, South Korea, Switzerland, Venezuela, Mexico, Republic of Moldova

Currently we are in second place with EDEN in first! The gap is about 6 billion or so between us and EDEN, so there is lots to play for!

Weekly Report:
Decent week again, especially in regard to activity. I'll be doing another MoFA update on the 28/29th or so where we've got lots of articles to share. We also made the right decision in terms of choosing our side in the Battle of the Alliances - Friendship Over Everything (FOE). While the UK CP was at risk of being impeached for choosing the wrong alliance. As well as the American CP, who was impeached for being in the same alliance as the British and the Spanish. Lastly, a few more ambassadors have signed up too. Good progress so far!
