[CP] State Of The Nation
Acacia Mason
Good Morning eCanada
I come to you today to update you on our battle with the eUK and the direction we are currently heading as an administration. We are at the halfway point of my term and its time for a high level view of where we are.
First off, I want to congratulate each and every one of you who fought and found victory on the battlefield. Your efforts produced the most successful military invasion in our history. In the span of just one week we reduced the UK to just 3 regions. No other Prime Minister has been able to accomplish this sort of feat and it is not lost on me, just how powerful this nation is when it chooses to focus on a single goal. For a foreign PM to lose all but 3 of his/her regions in one week without intentionally trying is truly incomprehensible. Add to this that he then rage quit and well...eCanada, you have truly raised the bar in terms of political, economic, and military warfare. I am very proud of all of you. You even proved just how massive a fail the eUK is by demonstrating that they could not beat us one on one...only after enlisting the help of the Mime Parade (read eFrance) could they find success. 2 on 1 just to beat us...congratulations eCanada on proving just how powerful we really are.
Further to this, in speaking with eCan business owners, stock is depleting, sales are brisk and there is a genuine optimism about business in the country again. War makes the economy spin and the most recent invasion of the United Faildom has been a massive boon for our business’s.
What then do I have planned for the UK and when will we be able to hit London. The Military module is heavily slanted towards the defensive side. It is far better to be a defensive team then to be the offensive team, unless of course your CP is a complete boob (read John Bartlett) in which case you can completely blow this fact out of the water. When one attacks a region, the opposing side has the chance to retreat and force the battle into the opponents time zone. By doing so, the attacker ends up paying gold for the defender to end up retreating and pushing the battle to a more favourable time for them. Why then do I not just retreat again and push it back into our time zone? Simple...once you attack a region you set off a clock that locks you out for 72 hours from attacking again. To retreat would mean I would have been handing the region back with no chance of attacking it again...essentially handing it back for free. What does this mean for us right now? Simple...the eUK has enlisted the help of eFrance (the only way they had any hope in beating us). When we attack, the United Faildom pulls their act of cowardice and retreats, they then re-attack. If we win that battle in their prime time, eFrance attacks next. This is the only way they can win...by using a double team because we are simply that good...and they are simply...well simply that fail.
In short, to continue to attacking the United Faildom is to simply hand them our gold for no real good reason. Why not let them spend all theirs to take their regions back instead. Without adding a few other nations to pull a double team of our own, there is little point in continuing to spend. Add to this that we are now being called on to focus our efforts elsewhere, and make no mistake, EDEN leaders have taken note of our military prowess and as a result, we are continuously being asked to participate and spearhead more important EDEN operations. The fact is, EDEN does not care about the United Faildom...they don’t view them as a threat and after watching them lose all but 3 regions in one week...neither do I and neither should you. Let’s let the whiny child have its toys back.
As your government, we will continue to bring opportunities to fight and you can be sure that if EDEN does not present them to us...I will. I have proven to you that I am NOT afraid to hit the button. I am not afraid of MPP’s, no matter how many there are, and I am not afraid to put us on the field of battle because I know just how damn powerful we are. If they want to attack us, let them try. We have a stack of MPP’s of our own and unlike the useless boob CP in the eUK, I will be sure to execute against it.
The next two weeks will continue to bring more opportunities, more successes and a renewed presence at the EDEN table. We are NOT a supporting cast member. The last two weeks have proven that eCanada is a leading player...and we will continue to lead whenever possible. We are one of only a handful of nations who can fight in the North American timezone, and with timezone fighting being all the rage (thanks to us for showing the eWorld how its done...) EDEN has not lost sight of just how important a North Amercian time zone army really is.
In closing, I want to wish all our Congressional Candidates success in the coming election and to those asking if I will be running again in September...I will make an announcement on that after Congressionals.
Yours In National Unity,
Prime Minister of eCanada

\o/
We winned.
Very Nice Article o7
I was kinda hoping we'd take the rest.

I hear London calling...
ZZZZzzzzZZZZZ

So UK wins then 🙂 jumping before you're pushed - winning a war then surrendering when you begin to lose is NOT a victory - well, maybe in Canada.
I really don't care if we take new regions or not, I just don't want the UK or France to take any of our precious provinces/territories!
inb4Tomazim
well put. and if you do decide to run again, you will have my vote. simply for comments like "Let’s let the whiny child have its toys back."
...oh, and o7 as always, Acacia. I'm expecting Tag-Team Failure to start trolling us soon and our dear, eternally well-informed friend Osric to jump on this and say he was right all along (he wasn't), but we've proven our strength. It takes two nations playing a retarded game of tag slow us down? Really? For shame, Phoenix.
It was a great run Acacia - if there was a really good reason to finish them off we all know we could do it but the price would be too high since we only gain bragging rights and more useless regions. As it is we're left with plenty to brag about. o7 eCanada o7
This is called a victory!!!!
It takes on nation attacking us in our sleep to surrender to us? for shame, Canada. For shame.
Voted friend
To all the eUK trolls... your CP ragequit over this war, and you lost most of your country. To try and play this as anything more than "We survived!" is arrogance without basis.
hey Tomazim i wouldn't call this a surrender. as that would require us to give gold and some regions to the eUK. rather i would say we feel bad for you. losing all your high resource regions and your precious oil, having uncaring allies who didn't lift a finger to help out until you started BAWWWWing at them, losing gold on those hospitals and DSefense systems in Vestandlet and to top it all your CP rage quits!! now that is a rough week.
Most of what you say is true and justified. Congratz on the nice war and success.
But I fail to take you seriously as a person, let alone a country president, when you use "fail" as an adjective and call an enemy a "boob".
So as said, well done on the war, but calling people "boobs" brings you down in the long spiral to trolldom.
Sorry to keep on with this, but insulting people doesn't really fit in with -When I close my eyes I remind myself that there is a real person on the other side of a screen who, though not a RL friend or foe, is still someone I should be respectful of.-, does it?
😁 Is it bad if I kind of agree with Darren Marcus? 😁 I'd rather just celebrate our victory - good natured trolling is fine but chanting FAIL at the other side is kinda lame - we won, let's act like we've been there before
Darren Marcus is a boob.
o7 Acacia, mah tank is ready for some more killin!
thanks for the activated MPPs! And for what?
Total victory is still possible in the UK if certain neighbouring countries could be brought in to swap / attack.
I have something to say. Something RESEARCHED. http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/the-stalemate-1496739/1/20
Does anyone else find it ironic that the only way the UK can actually win a war is by retreating. LOL
Best of luck in the second half of your term, Acacia. You've been great so far!
Win.
Bartlett is a boob, haha
Give nothing back - finish what we've started and TAKE IT ALL! If you want to make a point and send a message, there is no better way!!!
PS - On another note, we have to remember that this is a game and that the UK is our ever trusted friend, brother and ally in real life - and should be treated as such online as well - so let's avoid pettiness chaps, and play in the best spirit of brotherhood and comraderie.
why does he sound like that president from fallout 3 ?
😛
It may sound like I'm trying to defend the eUK. Nah, go ahead. Take them/us down a peg, they/we are far too arrogant.
But I warn you not to fall into the same hole. N'est-ce pas, Tenacious P?
o7
Point is the attack was a waste of time and doomed to failure in the first place...
