Foreign Affairs? Introducing the Kravenn and Thomas765 team!
Thomas765
Hello there,
I would say that Kravenn and I make quite a good team when paired together, most recently with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs last month. We are going to work together in producing informative articles on a variety of issues in the world and involving the reader in some of the articles in the form of polling to a degree.
Firstly, to give a history about both of us...
Kravenn
- Former five time Minister of Foreign Affairs, former three time Minister of Defence, former one time country president and was Director of International Relations in ONE for five months (two headquarters terms).
- He is Belgian in real life but moved to the United Kingdom in-game as a result of the merger between the two countries on this game. He speaks French fluetly and has learned English over the years.
- Politically, he is a member of The Unity Party - the current second largest party - and has been a party president there.
- He says his favourite nations in this game are Serbia, Poland, Chile and Hungary.
- He says his least favourite nations in this game are France (that's a given
😛), China and Croatia.
Thomas765
- Former four time Minister of Foreign Affairs, former Minister of Home Affairs, former Speaker of the House of Commons and a former president of the UK. I was ONE deputy Military Commander from January to April, when I became Military Commander alongside Sir Marvin. Later became Deputy Secretary General.
- I live up in Scotland in real life but I didn't start off in the UK. I started off in the USA by accident during the invasion of the United Kingdom in February 2010, which reduced the country down to one region but we won by using diplomacy. I moved to Austria and became country president six months later. After waiting nearly a year to get my citizenship granted, I became a UK citizen in December 2010 and joined the United Kingdom Reform Party, which was second largest at the time. I later became PP and saw the party overtake The Unity Party for the first time in a year. I later joined TUP. Currently I belong to no party.
- My favourite nations in this game are Poland, Chile, Hungary and Ireland.
- My least favourite nations in this game are Argentina, Turkey, Republic of China and China.
So what will your joint articles include?
If you remember from last month, Kravenn and I did a few articles on the relationship between our country and another country up until I resigned as MoFA. We hope to continue these to an extent, whilst letting the MoFA still do their job.
In addition to that, as a result of our contacts abroad, we are able to get news relatively easily and as such we are able to get the information out into the UK media if we so desire.
We currently live in a time where alliances are changing and countries are shifting between forces, most recently including USA and Brazil. We would like to offer citizens to get their input on the alliance situations and on who they find to be good allies.
And finally, to avoid the work being put on just one of our newspapers, we'll be splitting our work up and putting information on my newspaper for one article and on Kravenn's for another every now and again.
Why are you doing this?
Well, we're both doing kind of exactly the same stuff right now. It'd be a lot better and a lot more awesome if we combined our efforts into something much better and efficient. Not only that, it means our articles are being double checked by each other to make sure things are not only accurate but informative to the greatest extent as well.
It's a great way of helping out people who wish to start out in a Ministry of Foreign Affairs either at home or abroad.
I hope you enjoy the articles to come!
Thank y'all for reading,
Thomas765 and Kravenn
P.s. The y'all is because I am a dirty eAmerican.

So u are allied together yet obviously both have issues and concerns with the current administration and their positions and policies and are going to use ur international connections to air alternatives to the current admins agenda assuming such appear it will be interesting to see how this develops and what insights (positive i hope) can be correlated and compared to ur counter parts in office. It should be a good motivational tool to ensure they actually make an effort but we'll see.

Nice to see your informative articles will be continued.
Never knew Belgian Kravenn moved to the United Kingdom in-game as a result of the merger between the two countries on this game. I thought he moved to UK because of the not that positive political climate in United Netherlands (merge of Belgium and the Netherlands) to the UK where you had quite some Belgians because of the earlier merge of Belgium and UK.
Voted!.
"And finally... We are in no way affiliated with the current government. It is up to them to produce their articles and if they're failing to do so, that's not our problem. We only aim to please."
did either of you offer to stay on?
Good to see you both still having an input. it benefits our population. Knowledge is power
@ Neil Lewis, no Neither applied for this months cabinet.
Cry Cry Cry....
I didn't intend on applying for government this month because I wanted to keep myself free from obligations. I don't know about Kravenn though.

Hooah
I didn't applied in any cabinet, I was MoFA during 4 months in a row and I needed a small break. But seems like that some people who support the current government only like informations from Gov and their party
This article whilst maybe informative is a little disrespectful to BA and his Government, if you had the time to write this and future articles why couldn't you have done so in some form of role helping the current Government?
Seems you don't accept the term of BA/UKPP and his Government and so will work independently
As I say it seems to me you have a personal issue against BigAnt?
Because it involves not committing ourselves to having to do it for the entire month. When and if we have to leave whenever and not do anything, we can. Would you agree that it would be better letting newer people in the role of MoFA instead of us two who have been at MoFA for the last year? Personally, I like writing articles and will continue to do so freely and not under pressure from cabinet like last month.
So if they stay in their role forever they are elitist, but when they let new players have a go they are being disrespectful?
Still sounds to me like you have thrown the teddy out at TUP losing the election, yes I would prefer new people always to get a chance but the wording and tone of your article can be deciphered by a two year old as an unprovoked dig at the Government
Danie Fox, whilst I don't agree with the whole branding of TUP as elitist I do think some players are, and if I personally find those players to be so I will have no hesitation in saying so
Thomas: I had no idea you are UKPP. Guess you didn't fancy take on the Ministry in a non-TUP cabinet
Kravenn: "But seems like that some people who support the current government only like informations from Gov and their party"
Seems a moot point as Thomas is supposed to be a UKPPer, however if the Count had won would you have stayed on?
UKPP? I'm only spying on your hilarious shouts.
Am I to understand from these comments that people only want to see good articles if it benefits their party? I've also not run for anything this month as christmas will sap away at my remaining time, that doesn't mean I won't also write a few articles when I do have the time (and physically can). How has anyone made a fuss about government by doing something responsible such as not accepting responsibility they can't sustain 100%?
😁😁
Agreed so much. It's only informative these days if it says "Join x party" on the bottom.
Thomas765, stop playing games with people, you know why you posted this, so do I and no doubt so do others
I hope you guys know what your doing as you will lose your beloved power for ever if you lose this risky game that you are undertaking, I guess desperate times call for desperate measures?
My beloved power? I don't want power.
There were no secret intentions. If you want to post conspiracy theories then go ahead, I don't particularly care what you have to say. All it is really is Kravenn and I working together again on articles to save wasting each others' time.
What is wrong with China????
How dare I work for the good of the people whilst not winning an election.
They're puppets of EDEN and as eRep is banned in RL China, it's ran by Croatians.

I personally don't mind these articles, being the MoFA, I welcome anybody to write whatever they wish. However I also invite anybody who is interested to join the ministry and work with us!

I like what you're doing here. Any more informations is good for me. Plus it would be sad to see these two leave the foreign affairs scene. Plus they are right to give other people a chance in MoFA ministry. Please keep writing.
