Quote of the day:
“Like I said previously, even major eNations such as Russia are being pushed back into their own heartland by our enemy at the moment. What could EDEN do to us?” - GGRyan (eUK Prime Minister)





New eNations

As eRepublic continues to develop, the Admins have filled in some of the ominous grey space on the eWorld Map with some additional eNations. eNations the Admin have chosen to add are Cyprus, Belarus, Republic of China (Taiwan), New Zealand, Montenegro, and the Republic of Macedonia (FYROM). Throughout last week Getty-Rable Basic Press featured reactions and suggestions from around the eWorld to the additions of these eNations. For other eNations covered in this series:
eRepublic of Macedonia (FYROM)
eNew Zealand
eCyprus
eBelarus
eMontenegro
eRepublic of Chain (Taiwan)





eRussia

Over the last week, eRussia has been struggling to hold onto its regions, subjugated to assault after assault from EDEN member-nation ePoland. ePoland has been very successful in their campaign, securing two additional regions from eRussia (Northern Russia and the capital of Moscow and Central Russia). After securing the Capital-region of Moscow and Central Russia, ePoland launched attacks on the other grain-rich regions of Volga and Volgatka, as well as the second most populated eRussian region of Leningrad Oblast (secured by ePoland today).

eRussia sensing that ePoland and EDEN were stretching their forces thin with all of the attacks, counter-attacked their former region of Western-Siberia (high Oil, Iron and Stone). The eRussian attack proved successful with today, with eRussia narrowly edging out ePoland in the final mini-battles. Immediately following the battle, ePoland re-attacked the region. It is unclear how eRussia will fair in the next round of attacks as eRomania has directly entered the assault adding additional problems to an already stressed eRussia.

Yesterday, eRomaina completed its move across eUkraine and launched attacks on the eRussian regions of Central Black Earth and North Caucasus. Should eRomania find success the will capture two valuable regions from eRussia (high-oil and high-grain) eRussia will be without major resources it requires and will cause even more harm to the eNations economy.

With the attacks from eRomania and ePoland combined, every remaining eRussian region (6 in total), with the exception of the Urals region (high-iron) is currently under attack.

In a move to capitalise on the number of attacks on their regions, eRussia has attacked/launched resistance wars in all of their occupied regions. The strategic move will divide up attacking forces, with the aim of not losing all of the eNations remaining resource rich regions.





eUkraine and Pheonix

In a statement released today, the eUkrainian Country President announced that the eNation would be leaving the Phoenix-alliance. The announcement comes after a long term PTO of the eNation by eRussia was recently broken.

While the ratification of the CP’s decision is still winding its was through the eUkrainian congress, the news represents a strategic nightmare for the already strained Phoenix Alliance. A quick look at the alliance list and it becomes clear that its former members have recently started forming alliances with EDEN members-nations (ex. eLatvia and eItaly).

The news cupeled with the series of losses the alliance has had in battles recently certainly does not bode well for its future. Without some drastic changes to the Alliance's approach (both Militarily and Politically) many believe that the future of the alliance is in serious jeopardy.





ePakistan and eIndia

Following the volley of attacks from ePakistan on eIndia over the four days, eIndia is left with only two remaining regions, Bihar and North Eastern India. The two regions have no quantity of resources and are located geographically in the North-east of the eNation.

While ePakistan has ceased its attacks on eIndia in the last 12 hours, it is expected to continue its assaults once the battles in eRussia are sorted out. With all of the resource reich regions of eIndia under ePakistan’s control, the eNation has little care towards pressing on against eIndia immediately.





eGreece

Today, eGreece resumed its attacks on eTurkey, attacking one of the eNation’s two remaining regions (East Anatolia). The attack is expected to draw eTurkish forces away from aiding in the battles in eRussia.

While eGreece will be committing its own forces to the battles in eRussia, should their previous successes against eTurkey be an indicator for how the battle will end, eGreece should not face major opposition.
