Hello eUK,
Having been a citizen of the USA for a couple of months, I have seen first-hand the effects that relaxed citizenship can have. This article will go into detail to the history of the PTO of America and what we, as a nation, can learn from that.
The beginnings
America rose up as ONE fell in the final months of 2011. Resources became commonplace throughout the TEDEN empire, including France, who had suffered nearly a year of being put down by Poland and other ONE powers. America, being one of only two stable resource power houses of the world, was willing to let people into their country to benefit from the resources.
At the time, they had company owners who would supply for EDEN's armies against the now rather weak forces of ONE. The United Kingdom, Macedonia and Serbia all faced perpetual wipe. During these months, their citizens (while there was a "ONE" presence in the USA beforehand, it escalated during this period), along with EDEN's moved to the USA, where some were given citizenship. This helped ONE's armies as well as EDEN's. There was no deal nor was there an arrangement to let them in. They were just let in randomly.
ONE dissolved, CTRL was formed. The USA was in turmoil as EDENites, primarily Croatians, the French, Greeks and Romanians became displeased with the country's new direction towards Spain and Poland. It became a problem and this was highlighted when their immigration bureau was closed for a month during August. It was worse than initially thought.
Political Movement Begins
The PTOers were banded together by Ajay (Ronald Gripper Reagan) and they, with the help of chickensguys, founded themselves a party by the July congress elections. The party was previously known as The Libertarian party. Anti-PTO forces were able to take back the party in the August elections, where it was renamed "We The People".
The situation grew worse as there were more PToers elected into congress by the 25th of August.
Our beloved Admins changed the congress system for the September elections. In theory, the practice of the new form of election could help a country get itself out of a PTO situation. By the time it was implemented, however, the USA was in such a deep PTO that the system is beyond crap. The new system guarantees particular people a place in congress and also guarantees PTOers places in congress until the threat dies down.
What can we learn from what's happened in the USA?
America is one of the world's largest nations, we are barely a fraction of the size and activity of the great nation by our borders. They are barely surviving right now.
Regulating our citizenship as what's being done right now is the only way to make sure we stay in control of our own country. There's no advantage to having open citizenship, nor is there any advantage to closing it altogether.
The USA needs to work together to keep their country going. We're under little threat of PTO right now but I would strongly recommend that parties here work together to ensure the safety and sovreignity of our nation. We don't have to agree, nor do we have to do much. But I am asking that sanity be introduced into the policies of all parties. Come to an agreement on citizenship somehow. Participate in party debates with civility.
That is all.
Thomas.
More articles to come in the future. Hopefully.
Join The Unity Party today!

Educate our congress members on how to vet players...
So what can we learn from a different nation with a different set of resources, ability, population, ability to do stuff, different philosophy, institutions and an RP set-up based on their particular pecadillos?
That they are very different?
That they are suffering heavily from a policy that some in this country support.
Read, inwardly digest, and learn eUK. Do not repeat the mistakes of borders that are too open that eUSA has made 🙁
Try cutting it out Danie
Nice article Thomas, voted and read with interest

Good Article!
Good article, all the arguing currently in eUK does at least seem to have massively increased interest and article content levels from all parties.

In Norway we suffered from more than eight months of Serbian PTO because we didn't have any regulations what so ever, but now as we're liberated again, strict immigration-system is usualy the phrase that wins the election. We very rarely let anyone in, however if he or she writes a good application and the country leaders of this selected persons nation can agree with what's written we'll let him in. After all foreigners are a great source to political workers who can help carry the nation. We-
-also got a system that says you can't apply to run for party-president before you've been round for 6 months, congress member for 7 months and country president for 12 months. -and if they still run for election, they'll get permanmently blacklisted, and publicly made fun of. The system works really great, and untill now we've beaten down PTO-attempts from more than 5 greater nations. Maybe this is something the UK can copy?
oh, and we also got a medium large ATO team ready to beat down any law-breaking foreigners who runs for election.
v+ btw
I never said an all-in inmigration system. But, letting ex-eUKers, and a commitee would be less strict and fairer than current pure keering.
For once gotta agree with Alpha.
The debate seems to have been pulled in an over the top direction, Most don't advocate for an open immigration policy but an Immigration Committee.
Personally I like taking MH's idea of a congress leader elected by their peers and using it to have an elected Head of Immigration with a couple of deputies.
I understand everyone's point of view on the immigration thing, but I am actually a supporter of Keers running MoCS/MoI [Ministry of Citizenship/Ministry of Immigration]
There isn't any issue with him doing it, seriously, what's the actual issue, apart from the anti-TUPist standpoints?
Didn't USA let is lots of people from allied nations in EDEN, who then tried to take over when USA started to drift away from EDEN?
Doesn't the UK let in lots of people from allied nations in ONE? What will they do if we drift away from the old ONE bloc?
We don't have full resources so the comparison probally isn't applicable, but don't fool yourself into thinking that we are doing anything different to what USA did.
I think that USA's reaction to some exEDEN citizens still liking EDEN and trying to impose liking EDEN is a massive, massive overreaction and is actually pretty insane.
They want to stop 'PTOers' destroying the country, so they are destroying to country to make 'PTOers' go away - they are actually considering wiping themselves and I don't have a clue how that would help them.
The 'PTOers' really are just people wanting USA to be strong and have max resources, is that so different?
goku, you miss the point that :
1) eUK is a province of the Polish Empire
2) TUP is the de facto Serbo-Polish PTO.
I think Alphabethis should write NE foreign policy, he's clearly a visionary.
Lessons we can learn?
Never eat yellow snow
Never call out your mother in laws name in bed (unless you are in bed with your mother in law)
Smoking is actually cool
Incest is only wrong if your sister is fugly
Scots will carp on about independence but won't actually vote for it 🙁
A few comments above display how even when you spell something out to someone, they can still decide not to understand it because they grow increasingly moronic. What the hell is the problem with these people?
The simple answer to that, LLC, would be that they are blinded by their want for power or for their need to take away power. If something can't be spelt out even to the most simple minded of people then dio help the UK.
thomas765, I am so blinded by power that I'm not even running for Congress. But it's always to get on personal attacks, when I'm stating a truth about an abstract entity (TUP).
I repeat, our Foreign Policy is "eUk-forums-moderation" quality, put in other words, so kids and Beta can understand me, our Foreign Policy is absolutely bad and non-existent.
LLC, thanks for the personal attack, I won't reply back to you or ESO.
ROFL at the irony of Alphabetis getting on his moral high horse about 'personal attacks'. Take a good look in that mirror Alphabetis. You have done little else for months... even whilst not a UK citizen...
He's a bit of a hypocrite, yes. So it makes everything even better.
