eAfrica is home to only two countries. This makes running countries in Africa damn near impossible because we have no ally neighbors on our continent and we're too far from Europe to make a notable difference.
I'm personally fed-up with having to deal with South America. Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against the people there, but they might as well classify eSA as a South American country. The fact that we're thousands of kilometers away from the Americas makes no difference to the speed and precision they attack us. This is a flawed system and makes living in eSA all the more frustrating.
What do I want?
We want to live in eAfrica. In a game called "Medieval Europe" unoccupied territories are home to barbarians or natives. This makes it fun for kingdoms to try to annex these territories. Make no mistake, it's not easy occupying these territories, but for nations far away from the war it's great fun to take land AND TO MOVE CLOSER TO THE WAR through taking these lands.
So imagine a "Scramble for Africa" game module where nations close to Africa can actually colonize land. That would give Egypt and SA something to write home about.
The admins will have to recognize the fact that RL numbers of African countries won't spike soon. The internet infrastructure in Africa is abysmal and I'm afraid the economic infrastructure in many of these countries are even worse.
This will change the face of war and open more fronts of wars for dominating countries. I believe it may balance things out for countries will have to decide in what theater of war their priorities lay.

Thing is, the moment those countries are there, it does not allow much chance for smaller countries to move closer, stronger nations would move in. But we would definitely be more part of the game. And Foreign relations might be more effective, where currently because we are out of the way those interested, are mostly interested to get back at another rival.

The awesome thing is global powers will automatically suffer from over-extension, making the game more dynamic. Duration of occupation may vary more.
There would definitely be more options, and more likely chance that smaller countries would be able to have better bonuses, might not be permanent, but more likely that smaller nations could steal a region due to the larger being over extended.
Its shocking that Tunisia, Nigeria and Kenya are not in the game purely looking at internet access.
Another solution us making the map a donut like the movement map is. Link Russia to Australia, South Africa to Scandanavia, Canada to Argentina and/or Chile.
If this will provide more $$$ for Plato, it will be implemented at dc
In that case they need to introduce the Arg -Falklands - Sandwich - Cornwall link already.

This link will make war games easier which is currently all this game is about.
wars will also have more meaning more challenge
It's called Civilization V
or Victoria 2
Victoria 2 ROCKS!!!!
I got one forfeit point when i said to plato create a new country (nigeria, because of oil). Otherwise, countries like montenegro are here. crazy thing.
Excellent article ! voted
Interesting, good suggestion. While adding countries to Africa with very little damage power makes it continuous airstrikes target. For example, Bolivia, in America. But it's good your segerencia, we all started out small and eventually we became strong.
