Ode to ATLANTIS
•
by Professor Evil
Before deciding to come back, one of the first things I did was check the eworld's wiki. Imagine my surprise to see that ATLANTIS, once the basis of stability in the west and elsewhere, has been disbanded!
I'm sure some members are too new to remember the alliance, as they evidently dissolved some time ago. There's an endless spring of knowledge on them and rival PEACE in the Wiki, as I don't really have a right giving a history lesson being so new to this new world.
For those that do remember it, I'm sure you share what is actually a poignant pang of nostalgia. I had my problems with the group. I revolted when they imposed a fine on the eUS for fighting Mexico instead of Indonesia, I remember Argentina, and plenty of other things that were wrong.
But then there's the fond look at history. There was the time where ATLANTIS was truth, when PEACE was the dark enemy in the shadows. And then the hearty respectful rivalry of two powers who were in it for the same reasons, and respected each other alot despite their scornful hatred.
I've heard we're part of the Phoenix alliance now, which sounds good. I've always been a great lover of eArgentina. But already my heart yearns for that time when the world was so polarised, that great cold/hot war that was fought on every front on earth.
So to those that remember, please raise a glass to ATLANTIS. And the old alliance that reminded us all we were brothers.

Welcome back... Pheonix = Peace btw.
Thanks very much!!! Also very glad to see that you're still here. Didn't realise it was composed mainly of PEACE nations, although I read that the eUK joined PEACE briefly. Still, all is good!
cool avatar 😃
I thought I'd comment as I;ve seen you on many of the oldies friend list >_>
Thanks very much! 🙂 Alan B'Stard is an absolute legend, I thought about taking him off my avatar when I was reborn but decided against it.
Comments are always appreciated. I wasn't too sure what state my friends list was in after rebirthing, but loads of people never took me off which I like.
Also see that you were president of the eUK, mucho respecto
The ATLANTIS / PEACE days were interesting, and it's fun too look back on them, but I would say there's just as much tension between EDEN and Pheonix, though I'm not sure we'll see anything quite like the North American war for a while.
Didn't research that far, to be honest. I need to research more before I start doing foreign affairs first.
Thanks for the post though, and it's good to see someone remembering the old days!
Welcome back 🙂
ATLANTIS vs PEACE was good. From both sides 😛
But PEACE were better, and now we're in Phoenix as a founding member 😃
Thanks! 🙂 And I didn't realise we were a founding member, this is all very good.
People seem to struggle to spell "Phoenix" >.>
So yeah, Serbia, Brazil, Hungary and the other bros, we have gone through a lot of challenging times with them 😉 And we love them all the more for it.
"though I'm not sure we'll see anything quite like the North American war for a while. "
The current EDEN vs Phx war is pretty intence, and the recent Liaoning battle probably had more spent on it and more damage done than the entire of the US invasion, 50kG spent and nearly 30,000,000 damage done.
But all in all its the same PEACE vs ATLANTIS war but more strategical and a lot more intence (at times 😛).
