US-Canadian war

Thank you for your comments on my first article, today I will come to you with a story from the old ages of the game, with our first war - which was not a victory, but still, it's a part of our past: the US-Canadian war!



This was the first major conflict in eRepublik. The USA, encouraged by the fact that the president of Canada at that time, Faltnor, had very few appearances in public, was willing to test its military strength. As such, it confidently declared war on Canada on April 11, 2008. The result of the conflict was a draw after 14 days of war. This was due to the actions of the many freedom fighters who joined Canada in search of action and fame. Another interesting fact was that this war triggered a chain of events which led to Canada being one of the most active states in eRepublik.

Legends say that many Citizens died in this war and that regions of the USA were highly disputed by the two sides. During the initial stages of the conflict, the USA had the greatest advantage, taking many Canadian regions in the first day. These where eventually recovered, and after a short ceasefire, only one Canadian region remained in USA hands. This was the region of Manitoba, which was eventually recovered by Canada with the assistance of many other states after intense fighting in one of the bloodiest battles in eRepublik history. A peace treaty was signed between the USA and Canada the day after the battle.

The USA-Canada War was one of the first wars in eRepublik and ended April 26, 2008 after 15 days.

In the final battle of the war - the Battle of Manitoba - President Nave Saikailah became the first tank in eRepublik by spending gold to recover health and fight continuously, killing many Canadians in the process. In the beta era, this method was referred to as pulling a Nave for several months.
