Breaking the circle

My dear friends,
There are still many dangers that threaten eBelgium, and many obstacles in the way. But for the first time the manipulation from outside our precious nation can be stopped. The reason this manipulation persisted in the past was the fear from two alliances, the fear that the other alliance would take over Belgium. In order to prevent that, they supported a status quo and stole the eBelgian right on democracy. For the next presidential elections there has been a decision to break this endless circle. When you check the candidate list you will notice it is quite short, that’s because some of the important parties decided not to run a candidate to show they are not interested in controlling this country. In my opinion Elynea is THE neutral candidate silently supported by most of the parties. I have bad experiences with agreements before the elections and I think it destroys democracy. But this time the ‘agreement’ is such an important step I cannot disagree with it, I would like to repeat that I believe this is a very fair and brave move from the Free Belgium party.
I hope our next government will be a special one, full of active players that will take a big step to getting this country back on its tracks. Maybe the president should even consider to start with a smaller cabinet that has only very active people instead of a big one where some people don’t really add anything useful. But of course this is his/her decision.
Something else that disturbs me is the recent vote in the eNL where they outed the idea to invade our country, that was really a slap in the face for the free eBelgian people and I hope someone in the government of the eNetherlands will offer an apology for this. I’m not afraid of an invasion thou, the current game situation doesn’t allow that because the moment eNL declares war on us they will be wiped of the map in days by their other neighbors. And that would be exactly what they deserved for their stupidity.
To conclude this article I would like to give my late farewell to manong. I disagreed with you many times in my short existence thou I never really had a chance to confront you with it because afterwards your decisions appeared quite good and wise. Something I maybe should have expected from an experienced player like you. I’m also sad that you last days here were tainted by much criticism on you personal which was something you didn’t deserve. Best of luck in whatever you do.
For a Free and neutral eBelgium!!

An interesting contribution once again, Rithulme, although your statement about eNl wanting to invade us isn't really true - not bothering to filter out ambiguity, the author of the poll put peaceful merge and forceful invasion under one option (which seems to be the choice of the majority of those who took part in the poll), but it also looks like most people were hoping for a peaceful reunion and understand the impossibility of invasion. I think eNl had to take such a poll to formulate an official stance towards our nation, and it was their perfect right to do so, it's just a shame that the whole thing wasn't really unambiguous and was a cause for much misinterpretations (especially in eBelgium).
In the erep article the option merge with eBelgium was clearly stated as merge by force, and indeed many people wanted a more nuanced option but still I think this is a diplomatic faux pas. They have no right to question if a merge would be appropriate, only ebelgians have the right to do that.
For me every time I see 'eUNL' in an official statement it makes me angry because that artifial construction is death, and hopefully it stays that way. But ofcourse everyone knows allready I'm very radical whan it comes to this...
You're a free radical 😛
I too think eUNl is done with for a long time to come, and considering the present situation it seems a bit delusional to believe in the possibility of its return. One of the arguments eUNl is using to justify the U in its name is the fact that there are a lot of RL Belgians there. If I may be so frank, I would say that RL residence shouldn't reflect on eLoyalty, and in this respect all citizens of eNL should be officially concidered eDutch by our government - those who wanted to become eBelgians had that opportunity, and still do, but those who plan to stay in eNL have made their choice. At best we could consider them our diaspora, which even could be considered as a casus belli at some point (remember Sudetenland) 😉 😛 No, just kidding, that would be against our neutrality, but a statement like this on a more official level could feel threatening, so the eDutch can think about that for a minute 😉
And I don't care how they want to call themself as a melting pot of RL Dutch, Belgians and players from other countries, eUNl, eBenelux, or whatever, as long as they don't come bothering us with THEIR plans for OUR country.
interesting thoughts!! To me this mean a lot thanks for pointing this out. Aldous, What you said makes sense and I agree 100%!!
I live to make sense 😉
We are not the only actors of the game, every neighbour has a role to play. We have to continue a neutral way, it's important.
😁😁^
