Welcome to the second article in our 'Why Play' series, the last article was about Foreign Affairs and this time we are focusing on the Domestic or Home Affairs side of the game.
Why is the Domestic side of the game important
Home Affairs are a key part of the game. Domestic issues cover a broad area, from communicating with citizens, to giving them fun things to do, to keeping player's wellness up. Essentially, the aim of Home Affairs is to keep people playing the game and keep them interested, as well as teaching them how to play. So without Home Affairs, there would be no game at all.
The Career Path
Step one: Apprentice
The first step in a career in Home Affairs is to become an apprentice in one of the wide range of departments in the Ministry of Home Affairs or the Ministry of Communication. To apply, you should wait until the 6th of the month, after the CP elections and then a thread should be put up in the general section on the forums, which are the essential place to be if you want to succeed in erepublik, telling you how to apply. The areas you can get involved in are: Media, which runs the NNA which publishes weekly articles showcasing the best of the weeks news; Gifting, which involves gifting new players food and weapons; Entertainment, which provides entertaining things to do on the forums; Recruitment, the department in charge of bringing new players to the game; Education, which deals with writing articles to help players; Wiki, which is charged with updating the UK pages on the wiki and Mentoring, which provides help to players who want to get more out of the game by learning from an experienced player. Once you have got your apprenticeship in your chosen area, the key thing to do is do a lot of hard work, like mass pming, writing lots of articles and brainstorming good ideas. Whatever area you are in, doing these things will get you noticed quickly.
Step Two: Under Minister
After a few good terms as an apprentice, your application will be considered for an under ministers position. An under minister is in charge of the day to day running of a department and working with the Minister to make sure the department achieves its goal for the term. To be uM you need to be able to organise your team effectively and to generate good results, whichever department you are in. If you manage to have a successful term you should be moving up the ranks pretty soon....
UnderMinisters are a vitaly important part of our government structure. Whilst Ministers will spend a lot of their time communicating with the underministers, with cabinet colleagues or writing reports and articles, it's underministers who keep their respective departments working day to day.
Underministers are the ones who generally need to ensure that apprentices are doing the daily tasks of the Ministry. They also need to communicate regularly with the Minister and also work to remove any obstacles that get in the way of apprentices being able to complete their tasks. Inevitably, good underministers will have to get involved in the day to day tasks themselves. Leading by example not only helps with getting the tasks done but also shows the kind of commitment that is required in order to run a department to a high standard. Expanding on this, good underministers should be able to use their initiative. If the general, daily tasks have been done and there is a team of people or even an individual available, they can find them something productive to do. There are always messages that need to be sent and people who could do with assistance.
If they can do all of these things and keep the department running smoothly throughout the term then they are sure to be capable of stepping up to Minister level. It's the route to high office.- Dan Moir former MoHA
Step Three: Minister
The highest role attainable in the domestic career path before CP, where you need experience in other things, the job of the minister is to coordinate all the departments so that all the MoHA or MoComms schemes run effectively. The Minister is essentially an apprentice and a uM and a minister all in one, with ministers needing to put in a lot of hard work like an apprentice, help plan individual departments and propose ideas for each area like a uM as well as manage and organise the whole ministry in their role as a minister.
The job of the Minister of Communications is to inform and educate the public. This includes overviewing several departments in the ministry: Education, Wiki, PMing, and Mentoring. The education department creates articles that provide a wealth of information. Wiki makes sure that the eRepublik Wiki is accurate and provides accurate data, along with tutorials. PMing reaches out to the public, sending out messages to people about important events and needed information. Mentoring helps out newer citizens who have questions on how this all works. By helping out and educating the citizens of the eUK, MoComms hopes to achieve in creating a stronger society.-Stefan1992- Minister of Communications
The Ministry of Home Affairs is a very important part of the eUK Government. Involving Entertainment, Gifting, Recruitment and Media it has a serious side to it but also a fun twist as well. Entertainment is there to make the eUK Forums an enjoyable place to part of while Media sums up the weeks articles and awards the best with shiny medals. Gifting is where we supply people with low wellness with some food so the can be a little more secure in their safety, along with this we also have the Get Gifted, Get Guns Scheme, otherwise known as GGGG. Recruitment's job is to bring in a new generation of players to keep the United Kingdom on the forefront of the global map. If you're interested in working in any of these Departments, please message me and I'll sort it all out.
If you're struggling with wellness and would like a little boost, please contact the British Health Clinic and you should be supplied within the same day- Daniel Thorrold ,two time MoHA
Does home affairs sound like the career for you, well if it does get involved today and start contributing more to the UK!
