Join the new world

Back in 2011, a long time ago (I feel old), the country of South Korea was faced with the Colonial Era (I'm not going to call it PTO). Today, they are being faced with something on the same scale/category so I decided to write this article for nostalgia's sake.

My memory sucks so pardon me for any lack of details and feel free to correct me in the comments.
So back then, the now popular, Clopoyaur brought his small family known as Fortele Speciale Romane and took over South Korea and, just like that, started its Colonial Era or gave birth to the FSR Korea (No, it wasn't FSR South Korea, don't make me go into that).

So, why am I nostalgic? And how did I even get involved?
I was the Minister of Japan back then and Japan just had to get involved in all this huge amount of drama. We got involved by request of the South Korean resistance and, by declaring South Korea as a Natural Enemy we started a short (almost 1 month long) war that involved a series of back and forth territory swaps (and probably some insults as well). FSR had a lot of funds and some names like Clopoyaur, Alfagrem, Unikul Sergiu, just-me, etc.. just kept popping up. It was annoying really since I tried my best to make my name pop as many times but didn't do as good.

One of the most memoral moments for me is that the war was ended not only by both CPs but had the participation/signature, by Clopoyaur's request, of the Ministry of Defense and the Emperor of Japan, Kokawayoshi Makoto.

For referance sake, here are the articles launched by Japan back then.

CP - erepublik.com/be/article/1685365/1/20
Emperor - erepublik.com/en/article/1684362/1/20

In my years as a MoD, MoFA and CP of eJapan I can definitly say that FSR was the first to aknowledge the actual value we give (or gave) to the Emperor in eJapan, while he was around, and brought him to the negotiation tables. Maybe, he was the only impartial person on our side back then.

Like the war, the Colonial Era was also short (3 months) and it ended on the suprisingly good note because Colopoyaur and his crew eventually helped South Korea with its babyboom of over 6000 players.

The question is, besides the fun that all of the involved had back then, what can we take from this?
The MU letters have changed slightly, it isn't FSR but FAR now but how can we compare this to the current situation and mechanics of eRepublik?
Will it also end on a happy note?

And yes, I had fun. While, Clopoyaur totaly eclipses me in strenght, damage and rank, we totaly considered ourselves rivals. We hated each other, we argued a lot but now we're just getting old (and I'm already obsolete). Anyways, if any of the readers were part of this "era" feel free to contribute and, for those that weren't, your opinion is just as valuable.

PS: I might do images for this, to make it more eye friendly, idk.
