Congratulations to all those involved in the decision-making behind backing Latvia! Honestly, brilliant job! Really!
For starters, we lost our Capital region (And only high-grain region) for about a day. The 2nd highest paying job is at 3.45 or something of the nature. (At skill level 6) It is utterly absurd that we destroyed our own economy from the foundation just ot help Latvians in their stereotype-fueled war against the Finns. Honestly, this kind of action, by the government of Estonia, to make this kind of thing happen should not ever be allowed again for it is the epitome of Nation Self-Destruction.
Dear (all Gods)!! As such a small nation we need to have stronger allies and stop being walked over by Latvia! I got an alert the other day that there were no skill 0 jobs in Estonia AT ALL. That's how bad it is!
I can say with my full heart that it is this week I am disgraced to be a citizen of Estonia. I once thought it was a land of niceties and friendly people, however it is clear the government does not know what is best for their own people.
All law proposals (Aside from the alliance) have been shot down drastically. I will admit, some were foolish, but others would have made change for the better.
But what is my conclusion?
Simple: The Estonian Congress is run by an elitist group of people FOR that elitist group of people.
Any change-proposal that might possibly have a positive affect on the major population is shunned upon and we might as well be back into the Soviet Union all over again with lack of competence galore. It is sad.
Now, don't misinterpret what I am saying please. I am friends with many people of congress, the noble and good-willed ones. This is not an assault on ALL politicians (Every sword has its edge) but the stupidity with which was acted upon in the decision to aid Latvia is so tremendous I cannot physically express any further level of dismay that I am actually feeling.
Apart from that, have a good day to all of you, let's see how DOE turns out....
(Death of Estonia)

what bloody law proposals are your raving about ?
Not only the stupid/incompetent ones (which take up the VAST majority), but ones such as raising the import tax on grain (since we have a high-grain region) - which was shot down...
I agree, this decision in in no way profitable for eEstonia.
We raised the import tax of only recently No need to raise it more at the moment. All law proposals are discussed in the riigikogu forums. If they are passed there, they will be proposed in the game. We hope to have more and more active parliament members who visit the forums. Everybody can have a say there, its not a matter of elitarism, its a matter of being willing to put some effort in.
"All law proposals (Aside from the alliance) have been shot down drastically. I will admit, some were foolish, but others would have made change for the better.2
Almost all of them were false proposals in order to earn XP.
"Simple: The Estonian Congress is run by an elitist group of people FOR that elitist group of people."
I as a congress member, Estonian Defense League battalion commander and an officer knew nothing about what was going on. I only found out what was going on after we already had lost Põhja- and Lääne-Eesti. I speak for myself and I believe that for many of my fellow congressmen when I say that we were kept in total darkness about what was going on. The decisions were made by a closed "elite" group and the congress was cut out. So please, don't blame the people who had nothing to do with this.
Voted.
Latvian asshattery was entirely reasonable and expected, willing Estonian participation in it less so. Better keep your tongues firmly stuck in Hungarian excretory opening, as nothing less will shield you lot from eventual retaliation.
Many apologies, I may have made it seem more anti-congress than I wanted it to: I however was unaware if it was just me as a congressman kept in the dark or not - so I went off of what I had - I'm very sorry for framing congress this way, I now understand that it is not congress's fault.
What other people besides the president knew of this offensive? I mean I know there are people who like Finland, and if told would have ratted this out, but did ANYONE else know?
As long as you had a job before we gave Pohja to Latvia, you were fine. At least I was.
There were 10 people who made the decision. 2 disagreed. I am 80% sure that I know all of the eight, but I dont know who the other 2 were.
Just move in Finland, better place.
Very good points made. I was personally ashamed this nation could be walked on in such a way as it was. I lost all my funds for a day, that was nothing bad because I could cash in gold but imagine all those who are lower levels who one day had cheap food and high paid jobs and then the next they had expensive food and rudementary paid jobs! Out of all the people who should have been contacted would be the general public, the people who probably suffered more! I found no message, no article...at least, in English that I could easily find, and no announcement personally made by either congress or our "glorious" president. It is a sad day for Estonia.
I certainly hope more people of government besides the "Elite Inner-circle" are consulted next time...
You guys were walked on when Hungary TOd Estonia back when the country was introduced to the game.
eEstonia is done for, you should attack eLatvia while you can, while I, a elithuanian, will help them get eFinland.
Best of luck to you not geting taken over by eLatvia 😃

Хахахаааа...
Ребята, что вы парите?
Вы сдали регион на сутки!!! О каком разрушении экономики может идти речь?
Как можно разрушить то, что ещё не построено?
And how the Russians mock us:
"Children, what you soar?
You have handed over region for day!!! What about destruction of economy, there can be a speech?
How it is possible to destroy what was never constructed?"
Nice to see your wonderful and positive comment Corovaneerz...
