Hi folks!
Some of you from SFP and BC may know me, the rest of you might not, my name is Lucy Barnes. Following today's Question iof the Day edition I got some interest in e-history, so I decided to start a newspaper on it. As I hardly have my own resources I will use wikipedia sources. First article will be about our very first president, Korbin King!
Korbin King was a citizen of USA.
He was elected and served as the first president of the United States of America.
He went missing in April 2009 and it was believed that he died, however he was seen in California in November 2009.
While much of the USA's early beginnings were based in chaos, as none of its inhabitants were familiar with Erepublik or its functions, several people rose to prominence rather quickly. Initially, the largest Political Party in the USA was the Democratic Party. There was some uncertainty with who would lead it, and purely by accident Korbin King was in the Party president's seat come time for the General Elections. As such, he was easily elected as the first president of the United States.
Korbin carried much of an isolationist policy for his terms in office, with high taxes for imports and low taxes for VAT. The population of the United States struggled for much of the early time, and as a result the USA was left with a small but active group of citizens for its first population boom, which occurred in mid January.
On December 15, 2007 Korbin King, attempting to find a solution to lower the unemployment rate in USA, created the first bank in eRepublik. The Federal Reserve Bank has been used as a tool that the US administration will use to support the economy by giving loans to the Citizens that want to launch start-ups in eRepublik.
King left office at the end of January, amid criticism on his economic policies. After he retired, he became Mayor of Honolulu until May of 2008. The Q3 Hospital in Honolulu, which King paid for by selling his companies, was been enshrined as the Korbin King Memorial Q3 Treatment Center. It was destroyed when it was conquered during World War III.
He moved to Thailand and has become the president of Thailand in December 2008.

Nice!
Very good beginning. Hope to see this develop into a great 'History of America'....
\o/
nice article!
There are a lot of people that are looking for these types of articles.
America's history with EDEN (European Defence & Economy Network) would make a fine article.
Thank you for this idea, will do soon! Requests will make top priority for me 😉
Great article!
Way to go Luce!!
Keep it up
Nice.

Korbin King...
...now, that is a name that I have not heard in a long time.
Impressive copy/paste.
Who keeps letting this guy in?
Everyone keeps saying, "I thought he was with you."
When was the last time you did anything other than insulting one liners?
When was the last time you wrote an article? How about you write one explaining why you believe the USAF should be retained. Oh, right you're a MENSA member and above that kind of thing....
Still camping in the woods with Boy Scouts?
I didn't ever say I wrote it myself. And I don't feel it's bad as I added my source, which is hardly read by any people, unilke ingame media.
