Join the new world

Seasons Greetings eIreland,

As we are just a few days shy of Christmas across our eWorld, I thought I would spend a bit of time with you, the citizens with the latest updates and also remind you about the latest Christmas giveaway.

I will keep the same format as before and give you all a quick run-down on everything being done across the board.




I have been able to keep the Dáil Éireann upto date with everything going on, even when it comes to idea's and approaches from other nations. We have a few main things on the agenda, from concession deals being offered, TW offers and what to do with our countries savings.

I want to thank Congress for their inputs on each subject being brought up and discussed. I am only here to represent the nation and provide idea's, it is you the citizens and congress members who have the power to vote and choose the path eIreland will travel.




Well this past week saw the first of the energy drop with the eIreland Aircraft Program. We included 5x Energy per hit for the past week, but this might be increased after I received feedback from some of our aviators. After all, if this is a program to increase our aerial abilities, we should try and do the upmost to encourage our citizens to take part.

The Aircraft Program is always developing to suit the changes in the game, as well as the changes/challenges presented to eIreland and her allies . With this said, we are in discussions with a few people about how to keep the program upto date and make the best use of the resources being given out.

I would also like to say a special thank you to aimeisan for his/her (sorry we are all faceless here) 1,000,000 IEP donation to the Air Program. This has allowed us to turn down the monthly offering from the government.




We have been offered a few different deals in regards to other nations obtaining our Deer concession. However at this stage none have come close to representing the value we have placed on such a decent food resource (30% Food Bonus).

One offer had us paying them close to 440,000 IEP and well your governments response was:



We will listen to all offers for any concessions, but your government will not sell the nation down a river for a quick buck.




We have been asked by three different nations in regards to a possibility of a TW. These nations have been very understanding in their approach to us and in regards to any potential issues that might arise from a planned TW with them.

Turkey approached us with the offer of a potential TW. Turkey is a nation we all know well and know that we can trust. However the issue arises when we look at our citizens and who has Holding Companies in Turkish controlled regions. And only due to that reason, we had to turn down their offer. I am happy to say Turkey understands and respects this.

South Korea has also approached eIreland about a potential TW. Whilst this was a good offer and something that many players would be fine with, we had another offer before them with an old TW partner which eIreland will go with.

Albania has previously had a successful TW with us. They have approached eIreland about starting a new one up, which has been accepted for now (full acceptance will be via congress voting on the DoW law). This law will be proposed once they regain the regions of Maine in the US to allow them to move across eIreland and into the TW regions. I appolgise now if any short loss happens to producers during this transition, if you are effected badly, please PM me and let me know so I can arrange compensation.

Real War, we have many fighters itching for a real war and your government is trying to put everything in place for one. This will not be a rushed decision as when eIreland goes to war... we want to win it. I have provided some ministers with a list of potential targets and we are currently working on the pros and cons to each one.




Some of you might of noticed Warbhoy shout with the term EIRE 2020.... well this is a term you will be hearing a lot of in the next few months. This is not just a catchy jingle, but a plan to help grow and strengthen our beloved eIreland. A plan to ensure that 2020 brings eIreland back to it's glory days, both economically and militarily.

But to ensure this plan is a success, the seeds of growth will need to be planted today. So I ask you eIreland citizens, PM me and let me know if your a farmer or a fighter, so when the EIRE 2020 begins to roll out, we can ensure both our fighters and farmers can be kept in the loop and shown the best way to maximise their strength and produce output.
