Quote of the Day:

“I bring a lot of experience to the office, a lot of know how and most of all I bring my huge ego...” - nea milosu (on why he should get your vote for eCanadian Country President – [troll win])




eCanada

Over the last week, eCanada has been slowly loosing it regions on the British Isles to eUK and eFrance. While the eUK and eFrance have been doing most of the attacking and eCanada lack-lusterlessly defending, last night eCanada turned the tables somewhat and attacked four regions owned by the two eNations.

At 20:00 eRep time, eCanada attacked Scotland (controlled by eFrance). One hour later eCanada attacked Wales, United Kingdom. An hour after that eCanada launched an assault on the french regions of Brittany (at 22:00 eRep time) and Pay de la Loire (at 22:25 eRep time).

The attack on eUk and eFrance comes just one day after eUK Country President announced that they would soon be attacking Northern Ireland, eCanada's only remaining region on the Brittish Isles, and start reclaiming all of their regions that are currently under the control of their allies eFrance and eNetherlands.

Due to the timing of the attacks, should they proceed without retreat [and re-attack] by the eUK and eFrance at a time more favourable to the eNations, then both eNations would need to mobilize troops starting at around 4 a.m., their local time.




eAsia

The wars raging in Northern eAsia, seem to have calmed slightly over the last 24 hours, with only one battle currently in progress. An eRussian led resistence war has once again started in eChina controlled Eastern Siberia. The resistance war is slated to wrap up at around 12:00 (eRep time).

eIndia and its allies failed to conquer the eSerbian controlled region of Sindh last night. As of yet, eSerbia has not launched a counter attack on eIndia to reclaim the region of Balochstan, which eIndia captured 2 days ago. According to eSerbian sources, while the eNation would like to launch the assault to reclaim the region, they are awaiting confirmation from Phoenix as to whether they will need to focus their resources elsewhere.




eFinland

Yesterday eFinland was successful in capturing the final eNorwegian region back from eRussia. After their success in capturing the final region of Sorlandet, eFinland launched a training war with eNorway to help the recently beaten eNation to build up its experience points and battle readiness before land swapping them back into their previously held regions in eScandinavia.




ePoland

Yesterday, ePoland reopened the war in central eEurope by attacking the German occupied region of Northern Bohemia. The region which was originally controlled by the eCzech Republic (eCR), had fallen into ePolish hands after the eNation invaded is small neighboring country. eGermany and eHungary had stepped in last week to defend the eCR, and took back the region from ePoland.

The battle for Northern Bohemia is slated to wrpa up today at around 12:00 eRep time.




1ronman

According to the approved citizenship request page (http://www.erepublik.com/en/country/Canada/citizenship/applications/approved/192), former eCanadian turned eSerbian, 1ronman, has been granted eCanadian citizenship once more. The application, which was granted by Democratic Action League(DAL) Party president and congress member jbdivinus yesterday, was known by the appropriate authorities in the eCanadian government. According to jbdivinus, 1ronman “won't be causing anyone trouble”.

1ronman has a long history in eCanada, including serving 13 terms as a congressman, helping to found and lead the Brolliance, acting as an Assistant Military Commander of EDEN, and most notably, once again, holds the title of highest ranking eCanadian citizen based on experience (with a whopping 10,536 experience points). However great his accolades are he will most likely forever be know as a thief and a traitor to eCanada after it was discovered that he had stolen several thousand gold from the government in June 2010 (for more information check out: http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php/1ronman).

When knowledge of the theft broke, then eCanadian Country President Dade Pendwyn, posted the following : http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/cnd-theft-exposed-1422683/1/20

In response to the allegations of theft 1ronman posted this : http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/1ronman-is-innocent-1429817/1/20

[at the time of publication, I had yet to receive a response from eCanadian Country President Acacia Mason, nor 1ronman regarding the issue, though to be fair, it has only been ten hours since I began the article. I will update the article as information becomes available.]
