Issue 100: News from across the 38th Parallel
malta_1990
At 5:30 pm Erepublik Time on the 21st of May 2009, with 5 votes to 0, the Congress of our neighbours, South Korea has unanimously declared war on Japan. The proposal in Congress and voting results can be seen on this link. On looking at the Debate Area of this law, one is linked to the following article by South Korean president, Yonai Keiko:
The First Step of a New Life
The South Korean and Japanese government have reached an agreement, as yet not published, to merge as one country and thus make the South Korean nation non-existant in the New World. This agreement will be terminated once South Korea is fully ready and strong enough to stay in control.
In the North, this could cause a great deal of heartbreak to the United Korea advocates who would have wished for a state breaking free of its RL split. This will also cause the Independence and Neutrality advocates some worries about the safety of NK. Whatever happens, all North Koreans wish for closer ties with our soon to be neighbours - the United States of Japan and South Korea perhaps?
😛
In a further statement in response to doubt raised by some South Korean citizens, Yonsei Keiko released the following statement:
"We have no reason to doubt the eJapanese populace or government. The actions of war-hungry citizens over a year ago when the war module was just being unveiled should not effect our relations with eJapan. As Alfagrem has stated, eJapan has the most in common and is the most friendly of all our neighbors. Trust me when I say I would never put such a plan in action unless I was fully sure that it would work, and that those we are merging with could be fully trusted."

Congrats for issue no. 100
Thanks Zoli.
it's union because sk couldn't ake the heat of being a county.
'USJ'? WTF. Can people not be original with names.
it was meant as a joke. Added the smiley
Hopefully this shuts up all of the "We must unite with our brothers!" people. Voted.
it's more a union because we got tired of admin not fixing the bugs in eSK.
After you (Richie450) liberated eSK, you might remember that there were a load of embargoes placed against us? Those embargoes officially ended some 3 months ago but every time we try to export or import from one of those nations the game says - "sorry but you cannot purchase this license due to an exsisting embargo!"
some 4 months later, many PM's to admin and replies of "we will fix this problem" and we still cannot import/export with those countries!!!!!
The challenge of building a country from ground-up is great (as you here can testify) but when you have to start and continue operating from 12 stories down in the basement...........you have to face the facts and look for alternatives.
Good day!
I am also running for Congress in Kangwon. Since, i don't have any gold to spend making a newspaper so i grabbed this opportunity to say my presentation in a form of a comment.
First of all, allow me to tell you about why i became an eSpanish.
I am a football and a basketball fanatic.
My favorite players:
Messi and Xavi of FC Barcelona ---> football player
Rudy Fernandez ---> NBA player
and this is the reason why i chose e-Spain at the start.
Second, why am i here and where did i came from?
Since, I started playing this game in eSpain and migrated to eRomania for more experience. And in RL life, i am a FILIPINO not SPANISH. And if you think i am not a RL Filipino? you can pm Elyzza Carell of Philippines, and ask her who Mayorca is.

Third, Why run for congress and why eNK?
I chose eNK since it is a new country. I don't want any PTO's happen here. And if you think i am running for that 5Gold after winning... I'm sorry but what you think is wrong. I will donate all 5Gold back to the eNK's treasury.
That's all.
Thank you!
Yours truly,
Mayorca
Interesting. This changes a lot of plans. In any case, great article mann.
