The lost continent of Atlantis
•
by Keldire
Well here we all stand at the edge of the precipice. Atlantis has fallen or at the very least ceased to function as an alliance. We have internal squabbles that further hurt our cause and the sad fact is that we are now on our own until either Atlantis recovers or folds and we move on.
I find myself torn in the Germany/Sweden conflict. I am new to eRepublic and have not witnessed any of the things that both sides are claiming. To be honest I really don’t care. We live in this moment and not the past. We must learn from the past but we must also carry on. To hold past wrongs against each other is to hinder any forward progression and thus our alliance will be forever a failure. Until Atlantis recovers we must do what suits us best. At the moment there is no Atlantis.
Romania has surrendered and perhaps for good reason. However I doubt that a boycott will work in their favour. There are too many people who will still buy gold and still play the game. I don’t have the answer but to give up everything and fold is not the way to go. There will always be people to replace those that leave and unfortunately I have little faith that their tactics will force any real change. I honestly hope I am wrong.
The Swedes may have done many things for Atlantis, I am not here to argue that point but I must ask... Why throw it all away? With Romania down and out they are in the position to take the reins and lead us as a figurehead for the alliance. Instead they choose to destroy all they have helped build. Why not push for a vote to have Germany’s membership dissolved? They could then do as they wished without going against the other members of Atlantis. Assuming Sweden won the vote of course.
As a nation, eCanada needs to pull together. In the eworld all we can count on are our fellow ecanadians. We must prepare for the worst and hope for the best. We must strengthen our resolve and be watchful for those who would take advantage of the current situation. Whatever we chose we must do it for eCanada’s future and the future of all the people who call eCanada home.
We have some important choices to make regarding our stance on world issues right now. The choices we make today will mark us for a long time to come. Make sure you know who your are voting for. Their choices are going to be your choices. If eGermany is any indication, we will be held accountable for those choices for a very long time to come!

Excellent Article and a good commentary on current issues keep it up.
Flawless logic and inspirational as well. This is one of this times where they say "when the going get's tough....". I'm still waiting for true leadership to unfold from the present administration. Providing wars is great but this instance right now is the time to make the tough decisions. With ATLANTIS on the verge of collapse,eUS contemplating reforming it's own alliance,eUK stating that it will fight for eGermany but asking it's citizens to remain neutral,now is the time for real leadership,and a chance for a new beginning. let us see what we as a nation are made of. Voted ,Subd.
As a whole right now, PEACE cannot be defeated, all we can hope for is that dissention force a few members of them to our cause. I can hardly see this but there is some pretty good chance that we will lose completely europe, except for maybe spain but if we keep on fighting for our own personnal interest, the spaniard might lose this war if they have no one to back them up.
Well, IT is good. I like your intake and your solutions. The pointing of flaws in our alliance. Maybe we should be a new eEmpire.
An Alliance for the eAmericas perhaps...
As a soldier, I agree that what's happening with Atlantis is very sad.
Unfortunately, over here, we have very little or no influence at all over the course of events unfolding in the northern Europeen hemisphere. To take sides, or be overly open to one side in particular could be asking for trouble, imho.
As sad as it is, an Alliance with the US would be the best military move we could do.
Chaos rules Europeen politics at the moment...Isn't there a saying that without chaos, there would be no solution? Anyways, we are just gonna have to ride this one out, we are helpless while giants fall.
Canada, let's help our german friends fight back the swedish hoards.
exellent artice, and i agree with eric gunn and chucky norris. and i suppose duke leto maybe. it's easy to say that somthing needs to be done, but a lot harder to do it. lets support our government completly with whatever choices they make, cause we need to be united as completly as possible to do what needs to be done. whatever it may be.
Thanks for all the comments and votes folks! I am really glad that my first article was so well received!
I think it is a bit early to be making rash decisions one way or the other regarding eCanada's future. Nobody can fault the administration with any kind of lack of action because at this moment there is no action to take. Europe is a huge question mark and as a nation, we cant even decide what side to take with the Sweden/Germany conflict. Right now we need to just hold on and be very careful with our next decisions. I think we should be glad that the current administration isn't jumping to conclusions and giving in to panic!
Remember, Things could always be worse!
"Europe is a huge question mark and as a nation, we cant even decide what side to take with the Sweden/Germany conflict. "
Except that we are Germany's ally, and fighting the Swedes, who so deserve it for sticking a knife in ATLANTIS' back. Something they will no doubt regret soon enough.
