Irish Radical Contest III

Day 1,948, 19:18 • Published in Ireland USA • by Raven Anarcho

A new alliance is formed, as 2 historically friendly nations head yet again into war. This issue will feature the third Irish Radical Contest.

HEADING SOUTH

Tensions have risen once again between South Africa and Uruguay. In order to guarantee a congress, Uruguay has attacked South Africa. It is believed that Brazil and Chile will strike hard soon, in an attempt to prevent Uruguay from having a congress come election day. Uruguay has promised to return all regions to South Africa after elections. Both nations have had a good history, with exception to recent months, leaving much of South Africa angered and skeptical.

TEMPORARY TREATY

The US, South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan have all signed a 30-day treaty. In that 30 days, Taiwan will rent territories from South Korea, before returning them at the end of the 30 days. No other regions are to be held, and a Non Aggression Pact is to be signed by all members. The US has said that should Taiwan attack either Japan or South Korea, it will take that as an attack on itself and react swiftly.

ALLIANCE IN THE PACIFIC

South Africa and Australia have finally made their alliance, NaN (Non-Aligned Nations of eRepublik) official. It will be added to the game’s alliances soon. A charter had been worked on for weeks and the alliance has been talking to multiple neutral nations. Like Asgard, the alliance consists of smaller nations at the moment, looking to help one another out in times of need, something both nations have gone through recently.
