Join the new world

Hate or enjoy the article, could you please leave a comment to get me to 25? I somehow got 70 votes on my last article (crazy) but the JJ Mission cares not for votes. A long read this time around but hopefully structured to be easily digestible, thanks to everyone for your continued support. Hope you gleam some insight from this idiot's inquiries.

UNITED KINGDOM // RANK #35 // POPULATION: 315

The goings on in the eUK are quite easy to see, things are relatively peaceful aside from the odd mishap. FragUK continues to burn the sky as our ace pilot, Camat M does a great job of keeping our TW's running as smooth as possible, Noel De Never 12 lines our banks with gold and currency for flying well, and of course our President Huey George manages to keep order in the chaos. I'm still coming to understand eRepublik and the eUK, however as I see, Sir Humphrey Appleby is not only our Prime Minister but responsible for making sure the country isn't bankrupt. So thank you to all of congress and government for keeping the eUK standing. Special thanks to Keiththunder for their dedication in keeping us all up to date with the occurences of our nation.

Edit: Belated thanks to the NHS and Select28, they take care of noobs like me and are often neglected in this duty. Silently working and not asking for thanks, they deserve a whole new class of medal. (No they didn't message me, my dumbass just forgot like a lot of us forget to donate to the NHS, hint)

What about the rest of the world though? In this article I will try to share insights to some of the eWorlds happenings. In my previous article I discussed Armada Garuda, from Indonesia - so where better to start?

INDONESIA// RANK #1 // POPULATION: 3,992

AG seemed to have a falling out with Maxdi, the party president of UDELOE - the biggest party in Indonesia. Maxdi has been silent on this feud via publications, Maxdi's last article simply gave out free food and some... shall we say, candid, pictures of various women. Indonesia's president is Chacaramell, of the UDELOE, a relatively new player it seems. The second largest party is Partai Republik eIndonesia, the third being Allies of Indonesia - the PM JDoe.COBRA hailing from them.

They are currently the world leaders, in the Pacifica Alliance (Which includes our neighbours Ireland). Their TW partners are USA, India, Sinapore, Netherlands and Romania. They also have a MPP with Japan. Running for President are Gajah.Mada - UDELOE, Namagasonamagaso - Partai Republik eIndonesia, Rekayasa.COBRA - Allies of Indonesia, Jarl.COBRA - PARTAI KOMUNIS eINDONESIA.

IRELAND // RANK #56 // POPULATION: 96

So what about our neighbours across the way? Well it seems they've been curious about us too: https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/dail-leaks-2745309/1/20

"10.Discussion about the UK derailing discussion of Bulgaria: OP WHS"

Oh to be a fly on that wall, hopefully they were discussing popping over for some sugar, I'm sure we would oblige them and would like to be on friendlier terms with our eIrish neighbours. Most likely we were involved in their discussions about Bulgaria, and the strategic positioning of their regions within the eUK.

It seems a well oiled country part of the Pacifica Alliance, TWs with Finland, Canada, Poland and MPP with Brazil. Presidential Candidates include Armanych - Eire Aonair, Seth the Magnificent - Hybernia, Georgelakeland - Creations Of Caring Kindness.

CANADA // RANK # 37// POPULATION: 220

The eCanada Winter Games have kicked off, be sure to have a look in and check out competitors and winners. See if there's anything you can get involved in too: https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/ecanada-winter-games-full-info-2745466/1/20

Two horse race for president: Exalted Druid - The Canadian Progressive Front & Rylde - Military Dictatorship Party. TWs with USA, Armenia & Ireland. In Orion Alliance

NETHERLANDS // RANK #51 // POPULATION: 127

This article seems to pretty much some up the state of things in The Netherlands:
https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/-notie4cp-rampenjaar-disaster-year-2746202/1/20
It's in english if you're worried, seems they've had a rough go of things, there's gripes about Code here - seems to be a punching bag of late. From the journo's perspective, they say that Code is angry about ties with their alliance Hydra.

MPP with Latvia, TW with Germany and others previously mentioned. Candidates: NoTie112 - Revolution et Libertas, ElGorro - Iron and Wine, Alex uut Lindt - Geuzen Partij Nederland.

BULGARIA // RANK #14 // POPULATION: 925

Our sparring partners Bulgaria enjoyed some success in the recent event, some citizens feel the rewards were not as great as they should be; a sentiment shared by a fair few across the eWorld. A lot of Bulgarian media has an appreciation for the female form, aside from this there is great dramatic flair in a lot of the articles.

Unfortunately a lot is lost in translation, it almost appears from wording that they are in an actual war with Croatia- I'm sure it's just a very passionate TW ..ignore those screams from the horizon. Presidential candidates are silent, however there is vocal support for LordMattrim of the Bulgarian National Front.
Also up for election are, NO CARRIER (Level 2030) CareBears Party, NoFly11 - Democratic eBulgaria, Reslawpreslaw - Next to the Future, Vanch0 - Bulgaria for Bulgarians. They are in the Asteria Alliance which includes Serbia.

Here is an article from a returning player, the comments are filled with great tips for new and returning players. If you understand or can translate Bulgarian it is, in my opinion, worth the effort; if readers desire I will provide a translation:

This publication needs no translation as it is a series of adorable animal photos:

Serbia // Rank #3 // Population: 2,174

It's all kicking off in Serbia, lots of news, where to begin? Well they were robbed, then a government official kicked all of the cabinet out of the cabinet (their telegram channel). I am unsure if this, Strahinjić III who disrupted communications is the same who robbed the government of 1.600.000 dinars but accusations levied against them is that they were a Croatian sleeper agent:
https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/-1344-2745983/1/20
https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/-1344-2746012/1/20

A historic article ( https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/tetka-marinija-i-topla-fla-ica-te-e-ibrahima--2740677 ) does make mention of this Strahinjić III, and indeed mentions CODE and Croatia. History repeats itself? At any rate this article accuses them of bug exploitation and medal thievery.

On thieves, making their home in Serbia, claiming to be the largest merc group in the eWorld is the MU Wolves or Vukovi. The Wolves' motto - badly translated - is "WHAT WE STOLE WE STOLE, WHAT WE DON'T STEAL"

Pravoslavac IC XC seems to have landed themselves in trouble, eIndia now has a vendetta and perhaps bounty against them. They were farming Indian wars and got a little too greedy it seems, screenshots in english: https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/-1344-2745923/1/20

This fellow journalist is attempting to get the MM medal, they are offering 10 tanks to anyone that helps them, help them out.

Croatia // RANK #12 // POPULATION: 1,065

First of all, some lovely photography from this publication: https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/dvotjedni-povratak-croatia-2021-part-2-2745345/1/20

So it seems that Croatia, is in a war with Asteria. In this article: https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/stari-ratovi-nove-pobjede-2745021/1/20 'Real wars' are listed, conflicts have been with Romania, Ukraine, Peru, Iran, FYROM, U.S.A and Serbia - with only Ukraine, Peru and Iran managing to claim singular victories.

The U.S of A had their offensive airstrike thwarted by Croatian defenders recently:

A real life meetup was held in real life Zagreb, pictures here:
