ATLANTIS or TITANIC?: Romania Loses Two More States
Nick Everdale
ATLANTIS seems more like TITANIC today after Romania, the anchor and superpower of the European alliance, lost two more territories to a concentrated Hungarian offensive. Southern Basarabia and Chisinau fell to PEACE this afternoon in a continuation of the hugely successful PEACE offensive in Eastern Europe.
The eUnited States, which has in recent days distanced itself from the foundering ATLANTIS after disputes over trade and invasions of American allies, offered no public comment on the recent defeats. Once a major focus of the State Department, Romania has become a second-tier focus for the eUSA after the loss of its two high-productivity steel regions over the weekend.
Recent weeks have been brutal for the Romanian Army, and the once expansive empire that consumed all of Russia and most of Southwest Asia now holds only nine territories. A medium-scale boycott of the current wars staged by some Romanians only worsened an acute lack of soldiers for front-line combat.
In the United States, the effects of Romania's suffering are not yet apparent. Though they suffered a brief spike after the loss of Romania's iron regions, iron prices settled down within two days. The price of weapons has declined as well, though it is not certain whether this is merely a sell-off that may lead into a mass sale of now unprofitable weapons companies.
The Fair Dealer Editorial Staff feels compelled to ask what the endgame will be if Romania continues to lose its territories at such a staggering rate. With PEACE slowly consuming Europe and Asia, is there any way the United States - impoverished following a disastrous Russian War - could mount an effective resistance?

Our government is like the sports fan that is rooting on the Steelers, Phillies, and Celtics because of what they did last year, but the year before was cheering for the Giants, Red Sox, and Spurs...which is to say, it's a fair weather government.
I would much prefer to see our government stand with our allies through thick and thin, rather than flip-flopping all over the place and isolating themselves when our allies go through difficult times.
now, U can sell Iron for the romanians, and It's a big business for U!
I enjoyed that summary of recent affairs.
Voted and subscribed.
Nice article.
"...a disastrous Russian War..."
You had ONE battle with Russia. As I read other articles(of course I can be wrong here), you were not organized by anyone, the US populace got 2 conflicting orders. Russia had 9-10 or something like that MPPs opened.
I dont think it was disastrous, the US still has great potential, just need more experience in organising an attack.
Point taken, sir. I was going to say "Russian Invasion" at first.
Attacking the day of a war game killed it for me, I know I and many others had already fought and used the hospital.
Actually, there was no need for the Titanic reference as Atlantis also sank into the ocean as well.
Good article. I don't like the silence of our govt. regarding these losses in Romania. Also, is it worth turning a blind eye to the most powerful Atlantis country? I think it makes a bad situation much worse and more dangerous.
