5 country's we should become better friends with
Pheenic
We're at a critical stage were we need allies/friends to succeed. Here are five country's we should think about becoming better friends with.
1) China
Population (As off Day 1,147): 5,801 as off Day 1,147
Rank (As off Day 1,147): 11
China is our next door neighbor. They're a really friendly country, and have always been nice to us in the past. They've gone through a period of being conquered by another country in the past, so they have something to relate to us. They recently helped us with our war against Pakistan. They're a growing empire here in eRepublik, and have becoming a driving force in the eRepublik political landscape.
You can't ask for a better neighbor. Do the right thing, and get an alliance/mpp with them. They've always been friendly to us. How 'bout we show them that we want to be friends too?
2) Romania:
Population: 8,662
Rank: 4
Romania has always been friendly towards us. Traditionally, we've always had an alliance with them. They fought in our war against Iran. They helped liberate us. Romania has always been really, really nice towards us, and it's time we made it official that we want to be friends with Romania too. They also have a big population, which can only work to our advantage.
Make it official: We support Romania.
3) USA
Population: 15,463
Rank: 6
This is a tricky one. Ever since we betrayed the continent of Asia by letting Serbia through us, the USA has turned a cold shoulder on us. Some say they were using us for Karnataka, and the minute we didn't offer them something, they stopped being friendly, but I don't agree with this. Maybe the US Government did that, but the people didn't. You have to realize that before we messed things up a few months ago, the American people actually liked us. They supported us, wished us the best, and were friendly. But at the moment, not so much.
This is to anyone who doesn't like Americans/Thinks they are rude/mean/whatever. All Americans are not like that. Trust me. I would know. Get to know some of them, and you'll find out that they're actually nice people. We need to show them that we actually want to be friends, and we're actually committed to a friendship. It'll take some time, but soon, I'm sure they'll realize that we've gotten over our mistakes, and want to be friends.
4) Indonesia:
Population: 10,046
Rank: 8
This is another one that might shock some people. There's a chance Indonesia might attack us in the near future. The thing is, we can't afford another war. We just don't have the resources to defend ourselves. I'm tired of the hatred between the two country's. We need to get over the past. We're neighbors. I bet we could work out a deal that'll have everyone happy. I mean, c'mon. How many years has it been since this little rivalry has gone on?
Send an ambassador over. Go to their forums. Become friendly. Treat them nicely. Get the deal done.
5) Greece
Population: 9,758
Rank: 12
Greece has slowly become a huge country in eRepublik. They're also a very friendly country that in the past has contacted us about becoming friends (This was months ago, if I'm not mistaken). I think Greece and India have a lot in common, and could really hit it off.
I say we become more serious about being friends with them. Although they are far away, we need some European allies, and Greece is a great one to have.
Bonus one: Any future Arab country
Population: N/A
Rank: N/A
The minute one gets established in eRepublik, seal the deal.
I'd like to make it clear that I don't mean get an alliance/MPP with every single one of these country's (Though that would be great). I mean become friendly with them. You can be friendly with a country, but don't have to be allies.
So, those are my Top 5. What about yours?
Note: Population and Rank in eRepublik are as off Day 1,147.
Comments
Agreed Pheenic...good assessment.
i would like to add another country to the list though that would come as a surprise - Iran.
I have known quite a few guys from there on a personal level and am really proud to have them as my friends. the game does stupid things and paints people in the wrong light but the Iranians I have been fortunate to speak to are really close to my heart. I guess they are too much like us Indians! Passionate all the way!
lol you make me laugh
Australia has been trying to be friends with Indonesia for as long as we have existed. if you have something they want then you cannot be friends only potential targets
I'd add Australia to the mix. They're pretty cool. Been making some Aus friends recently.
China: We're good friends already, and hopefully will only cement that in the future.
Romania + Greece + Croatia: EDEN support is what we are all about now, and into the future. And not to forget Sweden, Canada. Poland we want to remain friends with, but Europe is turning into a rather dicy place at the moment, and our allegiance remains with EDEN nations.
Indo + Iran: We've had rather 'interesting times' last year. As Ash, I too had made some friends across the border back then. Only point being I personally wouldn't want to alienate our friends in order to bend over for anyone else. As it stands now, at least Indo is not exactly on friendly terms, given they have hostile intent.
I'd also like to extend our circle of regional friendship - Korea, Japan, Malay-Philli, Russia (as Pheenic, you were suggesting). Its not like we haven't been friends with them before.
Arab nations FTW. Also I'd personally like to see Sri Lanka into the mix!
In any case good initiatives Pheenic. o7
I think we should wait before considering an MPP with USA (Panam thingy) 😁
Romania : Talks are on
China : Discussion in congress on
Can we sign an MPP with ST6?? 😉
What about Poland? 😉
I want to add South Africa into it too. i really liked this small country, they've seen same fate at us and we hav lot in common.
They helped us many a time and we've done the same too.
THough they r not so much stronger as Cro or Romania, b ut still u can consider them as a frnd.
are those all nations you mentioned like each other???
if so, great article!
I think pheenic that all of those are good ones all we are gonna have to do is greatly tighten our budget to keep these MPPS.
Well we are done with eAus. Now we want to move on and have some fun by attacking eChina. Sometimes you just can't have it all. So what would it be? To be one of us or one of them?
