Battle Results
We were able to ward off Indonesia from Texas, getting the wall up to well over 300,000 but, a little after 01:00 this morning, Indonesia retreated from this battle they were losing. We were also able to secure Arkansas from the attack by Indonesia. Washington, D.C. has been captured by Portugal and eUSA has moved our capitol to our highest population state of Florida, which currently has over 5000 citizens. Nebraska has been captured by Russia. We were able to hold off Russia’s attack on Iowa. Portugal has captured West Virginia. Hungary has defeated Canadian forces that were stationed in Washington State.

War Update
With the wall well over 300,000, Indonesia was losing and retreated but then immediately re-attacked Texas, cutting the wall in half but extending the battle for another 24 hours. After their previous loss in Wyoming, Russia has now put its largest effort so far into re-attacking Wyoming, our last Western state. After the conquest of Washington, D.C., Portugal has launched an attack on Maryland.
France has used French-occupied Nova Scotia to launch an attack on Canada’s New Brunswick. Hungary has launched an attack on eUSA’s Canadian-occupied North Dakota.
A resistance war has been started in Hungarian-occupied Far Eastern Russia to give the territory back to Russia.
Due to the nature of the rapidly changing situation on the battlefronts, citizens are urged to read and and subscribe to the Department of Defense’s Battle Orders. Members of the military are to check forums and follow the orders from your chain of command.

eUS Training Division
Would you like to contribute to the war effort? Would you like to learn more about how to play eRepublik? If you are not currently part of the eUS Military and you want to learn and do more to defend North America, then consider joining the military by enlisting in the eUnited States Training Division (TD). Once you’ve graduated the TD, you should have enough knowledge to go in almost any direction you want in eRepublik. If you want to further your military career, you can move on to the Home Guard or other military divisions and will be able to request free weapons to repel the invaders and increase your rank in the military more quickly. We need your help and so do our allies! Make your mark on the eWorld today and enlist in the eUnited States Training Division today, the best eRepublik training program in the world!
The war has led to a large number of applications to the TD, so you may not get an immediate response because so many people are applying at once. Citizens are asked to remain patient for assignment to a platoon leader as soon as logistically possible.

Comments
1. The Hungarian attack against North Dakota was not stopped by Canada.
The battle is still active http://www.erepublik.com/en/wars/show/857" target="_blank">http://www.erepublik.com/en/wars/show/85[..]/857
It will end at 4:03 Erep time in less then 2 hours. The wall stands at -272.000 so Hungary will win this battle
Zoli - Corrected; thank you.
2. Please mention how Hungary got Far East Region!
With region swapping Hungary received Heilongjiang (a.k.a. Hello Kitty) with high iron from Iran. Hungary also received Alaska. You do not have an open battle with Hugnary so you cannot attack that region. You must either decleare war to Hungary or attack a country in original regions which has MPP's with Hungary (France or Portugal). This way Hungary will give back Urals to Russia as it has a new high iron region. It will probablly give back Northen Caucasus Region to as Hungary has high oil in Alaska.
Iran received Yulon and Nortwestern Territories so it has high diamond. All five high resources.
Hungary is liberating Far East Region (originally Russia) as it was used just as a passage to Hello Kitty.
3. Emerick is Great! He is winning. USWP dictartoship is comming to an end!
4. The DoD newspaper gives 2 link to closed battles. It would help if you give some tips where to fight 😛
Or maybe it would be better if Zoli wrote the articles. You should join White House and be the Chief of Staff! 🙂
White house right now is PEACE headquaters. So this is must be Peace propaganda.
@Zoli - Yeah right. Like you're going to give back those regions to Russia. You're going keep chewing up the map and making it green (according to gobba colours). Russia's gonna get screwed and so is UK. Some alliance of PEACE. You're cutting up the world like a pie in the name of "freedom". But your empire will fall.
There are 141 companies on the list. The value of these companies is 11780 GOLD.
Hungary took Heliongjiang on day 623 so Russia and Russian citizens must buy half of the companies based on their value (5890 GOLD) by day 653. As this happens Hungary has 3 days to liberate Urals. It means that day 656 is the latest day when the RW in Urals will start. If companies are bought sooner, liberation will start sooner.
Know you know one of the reason of the North American Campaign!
If this is is a world war then where are our allies?
@electric926 - you do have allies. Unfortunately this is the best they can do for you.
LOL, Zoli you sure you dont want to come over to the US? I hear Florida is nice this time of year.
