Day 1,329, 15:39 Published in USA USA by Israel Stevens
Editor’s Note: I will be taking a Real Life vacation to Real Life Maine (ew, I know...). Because it’s Maine, and it might as well be a third world country, I will be without an Internet connection. Thus, no articles. I appologize to you, dear reader. And I appreciate your continued support. I will be back in 1 week, with what I anticipate will be a rather large article.

Day 21 -

North America

The United States managed to secure both wins, and losses yesterday. Their win came in Nevada, and it came via the Resistance War. The Americans led wire to wire, not once surrendering a mini battle. The bad news, is that Indonesia has already attacked Nevada, and is currently leading 3-1. America will have to step it up, and win quite a few mini battles this evening, but I am anticipating a loss.
The other bad news, came from Washington, where the Indonesians crushed the United States. The battle was started in the middle of the United States primetime, and initially, it seemed as if Indonesia had made a mistake, and attacked too soon, but the ends justify the means, and Indonesia easily won the battle.
Currently, there is a resistance in Utah, against Indonesia; in Oklahoma, against Hungary; in Maine, against Poland and in Virginia, against Spain. All three are fresh, but the United States is only winning in Utah.
To the north, some promising news for Canada, as the country won a resistance war in Alberta. There is another resistance in British Columbia, but the Canadians are getting rolled in that battle. We are still waiting for the inevitable Canadian attack on a Polish region, and it should be coming very, very soon.

South America
This region is silent currently, but Brazil did suffer losses yesterday that brought them down to only one original region. They do won a region in South Africa, but as we saw a few weeks ago, ONE had a very easy time utilizing the Resistance War against Brazil.

Asia
As was noted yesterday, China lost Liaoning. The loss of this region, led to a Serbian attack on Jilin, which Serbia has just recently secured. With the loss of Jilin, China has lost access to both of their remaining Iron regions (the famed Heilongjiang being one of them). This is a blow to what had been the world’s best economy. With these regions gone, China controls all of the resources except Fruit and Iron.
Russia has also returned one of their most prominent regions to the map. The addition of this region, means that Poland (if they do indeed get through Alaska), could now enter Russia, as opposed to Japan. It still might be easier to go through Japan, as they may lay down for Poland like they did for Hungary.
Other promising news in the region is the reemergence of the Philippines on the map. Yesterday, the secured a victory in a resistance war against Indonesia. With the win in Luzon, the island nation looks to liberate Palawan, and help China but cutting off Indonesia from a possible invasion.

Overall Analysis
The loss of regions has been begun for China. And just like all the other nations that were wiped within the past three weeks, they are getting crushed. The battles are being started, and ended before most of the Chinese population even logs on. To be frank, it’s a brilliant strategy, and something that ONE has executed perfectly.
At the risk of sounding like a downer, the most interesting thing about these wars at this point, would be: “Where will ONE invade after they wipe China?” There are literally no targets left. The game will likely be renamed ONErepublik. Sad, but probably true...
