Inventing the enemy

Some say (Umberto Eco, to point the finger) that we have the enemies we not only deserve, but we made.
eIndia seems to have a problem with that particular issue, being unable to find out an enemy.

From all the RL neighbor no one seems to qualify to attain this title for eIndians.
Pakistan, which is a RL enemy, is not a real enemy here, exactly because players don’t want to make the same mistake here, like in RL and, more, because here religion is not a real subject.
If in RL will not be a major war with Pakistan, there are no real chances to make them an enemy of eIndia.

China, a country with which India have border problems in north east, more problems inside the country, because of comunist guerilla commandos that China send in India, is also not worthy to became an enemy of eIndia, because they are few poor chinese players with a country invaded by romanians, croatians, etc, exactely like eIndia.

Indonesia is far of being a target for expansion of the Indian Empire from the South, and she is, actualy, a friend here. A trustfull one, but a little neglected lately, I would say.

Thailand is here, in fact, a country of serbs and hungarians so ... if you want to spend a week with a thai girl, you should be prepared to eat spicey Gulas and drink strong Slivovica.

Some of RL countries did not even exist here.

Country’s from Europe that actualy invaded the soil of eIndia did not qualify as real enemy because they are aliens here, unknown and ... wierd, in the end.

Having an declared enemy is a hard job. Especially in India, it seems.
Exacerbating the hatred feelings from RL could bring here (ingame) players that will dramaticaly change the indians community from eR. Not necesarely for the good.
On the other hand, those RL feelings, could make lot of RL indians to chose to join the game and make the difference of ... numbers. Because India got the numbers.

So, I would like to invite you to express your opinion here, answering the following two questions:

1. Do eIndia need to use RL feelings to increase the number of indian players ?
2. What country you think should be our enemy in eR ?
