Join the new world

As some of you may notice this is infact a repost. The reason I am reposting it is that the last time I posted it someone posted five articles in the same hour bumping mine off the page but at least we were able to have a [a url=http://www.erepublik.com/article-470572.html]Party in his comments.[/a] I did however add another war to this part so that it is not the exact same thing as what I posted earlier. Hope you enjoy it.

Moldavian Annexation

[a url=http://www.erepublik.com/war-121.html]Link to Erepublik war details page[/a]
Duration April 12th- April 15th (3 days)
Aggressor: Moldavia
Defender: Romania
Other Defenders: Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria, and the United Kingdom
Total number of fights: 43
Fights per day: 14.33
Battles: 7
Result: Romania wins all 7 battles, Moldavia successfully annexed to Romania

Analysis

In the first week of war the tiny nation of Moldavia declared war on Romania in hopes of being annexed. The war was quiet at first, for the first two days Moldavia let up their arms and allowed the Romanians to march on in with only four fights in six battles. Once the Romanians reached the final Moldavian region some of the Moldavians decided to have a last stand and 39 fights were recorded at the battle of Transnistria.

This was far from enough for the vastly outnumbered Moldavians to chalk up a victory and Moldavia fell. In fact Moldavia was not able to even win a single fight in this war. Somehow they had managed to go 0-10-33. The United Kingdom was the only other country that had a citizen win a fight in the war, they won two fights in the final battle.

Turkish Jihad

[a url=http://www.erepublik.com/war-131.html]Link to Erepublik war details page[/a]
Duration April 12th- April 16th (4 days)
Aggressor: Turkey
Defender: Israel
Total number of fights: 114
Fights per day: 28.5
Battles: 5
Result: Turkey sweeps Israel and wins all 5 battles, eliminates Israel

Analysis

Although it was not the first war where a nation did not want to be annexed it was the first war that the aggressor had successfully wiped the enemy off the map. The war was no surprise as the president of Israel had been inactive in the days leading up to the war and the Turkish forces outnumbered the Israelis 10 to 1. On April 12th the Turks began their march down south and met heavy Israeli resistance at Haifa. A determined Israeli defense put up a good 41 fights, a high for the war, but it was not enough to stop the Turks.

Worn down by their defensive stand in Haifa the Israelis were only able to put up 20 fights in the next two battles at the north and central district and once again the Turks were victorious. The Turks however were not winning by huge numbers, the Israelis could of possibly stopped the Turks if they were to of gotten outside support how ever they did not have a leader to find support and most of the support they could of focusing on the war in North America. This set a precedent of smaller countries being wiped out due to other nations that would normally have been able to help ignoring those smaller countries and focusing on the bigger fish to fry in the U.S. and Canada.

In the end Israel lost and even with their defenders bonus they were not able to stay above .500 when it came to winning fights. A few weeks later an Israel independence move began but nothing major has happened mostly due to the lack of the fight for freedom module.

The War Down Under

[a url=http://www.erepublik.com/war-141.html]Link to Erepublik war details page[/a]
Duration April 14th- April 18th (4 days)
Aggressor: Indonesia
Defender: Australia
Other Defenders: South Africa and Bulgaria
Total number of fights: 401
Fights per day: 100.25
Battles: 7
Result: Indonesia sweeps Australia, eliminates Australia.

Analysis

When Indonesia attacked Australia it looked as if Australia would go down without a fight. At the time Indonesia was the second strongest nation in the world and Australia was fairly weak. This war was basically a magnified version of the Jihad. In the first battle at Queensland the Australians fought back as hard as they could and put up a stunning 289 fights but in the end they were not able to secure the region and Indonesians set foot on Australian soil.

After that stand many Aussies were tired and the weapons market was depleted, because of this the Indonesians were able to take the remaining territories with much less resistance then they faced in Queensland. Unlike the Israelis, Zaney, the Australian president campaigned hard to attract foreign support but faced too much competition with the war in North America. The remaining regions of Australia soon fell to the Indonesia and unlike in Israel we saw an exodus of the active population of Australia.

Most migrated to the United States or the United Kingdom due to English being the dominant language in both countries and have made significant contributions to their new home countries. There have also been talks about a movement to free Australia but due to the lack of the fight for freedom module we have not seen any organization of an actual revolution.

Indian Annexation

[a url=http://www.erepublik.com/war-151.html]Link to Erepublik war details page[/a]
Duration April 16th- April 21st (6 days)
Aggressor: Pakistan
Defender: India
Total number of fights: 22
Fights per day: 3.67
Battles: 21
Result: Pakistan sweeps India, India eliminated

Analysis: In the second smallest war (if you would even call it that) Pakistan made there first move for expansion by annexing India. Although Pakistan declared the war the Indian president did in fact support the annexation. India never really had a huge population while Pakistan at the time had a large number of people. The mismatch was huge and the Pakistanis never faced much real opposition.

They Indian population was so small that there was only fighting in two out of the 22 battles while the other 20 were silent battles with Pakistani soldiers just piling into the region, the Indian resistance knew they had no chance. The largest fight they put up was at Gujarat, with only 19 fights it was the bloodiest of the war but it was still a huge Pakistan victory. As expected the Indians soon fell to the Pakistanis and the annexation was completed.
