so it seems unfortunately despite putting up a hell of a fight the UK will be taken over by MEK who are too weak to fight UK directly. instead they have to use the dirty tactic of a dictatorship to take uk which is rather pathetic
so much for the mighty MEK...
but while the battle finishes up i wanted to take the time to thank everyone for their support
first i would like to thank UKs allies that came over to support the country.
secondly i want to thank everyone from the IDA who have fought for us and democracy no matter their stance on the UK is. we had players from poland, chile, serbia, ukraine and many other countries across the eworld come and fight. they put aside their differences and came together and fought for a very good and important cause and did billions of damage for democracy.
and lastly i want to thank those who didnt come to fight because they are allied with the UK or because they are apart of the IDA but because they came out of the kindness of their heart... and maybe the epic battles and COs :d
note on IDA
this is a bit of a set back for the IDA but it is a good example of what we will be up against and the power of some of the military units in the game. i think from here on we need to focus on increasing our power and getting more known out in the eWorld in the hope that more players will join us and fight for democracy
i believe we also need to work on a system to be able to quickly react to military coups so we can notify IDA members as soon as possible it was not till the end of the first battle until the IDA was told of the UK coup.
my advice to UK
i have a little bit of advice for the UK on what to do now you are welcome to take them or leave them
1. dont buy products from UK market place buy from a foreign market place instead
now that MEK will have control of the UK they also get control of the taxes and we need to avoid giving them our money. so instead buy products from foreign markets (preferably from allied countries) to avoid giving them money from VAT.
i also recommend using this tool to find cheapest prices in erepublik http://www.erepublikanalyzer.com/MercadoRanking.aspx
2. try to work as a manager as little as possible
it is likely they will increase work tax so i would suggest working in companies as a manager as little as possible as not only could it be expensive for you but would be a big source of income for them.
3. get wiped
a sure way to really decrease tax is to get wiped. i recommend the UK ask an ally such as croatia to wipe the UK and to give back norway regions until the UK regains control of its government. in a complete wipe this would lower tax income for MEK to just 20% giving 80% to one of our allies which is a much better preference.
also being wiped means that our new dictator cannot accept citizenship requests.
4. get a decent CP
max blue seems like a good person his manefesto was quite good even if it did not include anything about mofa and his stance on IDA in my opinion is good. but in the time we have had him as CP barely anything has been achieved other than throwing Chile out into the trash. the referendum still hasnt happened, there seemed to be no actual plan in case of something like this happening other than just hope for the best, he let MEK walk away with 210k (to be fair so did congress) and he just does not really seem at all active. after 3 days i am still waiting for him to answer a question from me.
edit: i take it back he is not a very nice guy and he cant even take simple criticism
5. work with the IDA
whoever is to be in charge on the legitimate UK government i recommend strongly on working with the IDA on planning the revolution on the UK to ensure that it is successful.
6. plan ahead
for 10 days at least UK will be stuck with dictatorship. in this time the UK finally needs to do the referendum and make a solid plan for when the UK it gets out of dictatorship. now is the time to work together to ensure the security of the UK in the future.
unfortunate events
one of the big reasons that we really didn't stand a chance is because it is MEK day. MEK day is when MEK members used all their EBs, bazookas, bombs and other weapon supplies that they have saved up over the year which you can imagine amounts to big damage. unfortunately we only found this out half way through the battle when we could see already that we had lost.
a final thank you
i want to give a final thank you gift to those that helped the UK so you can have a safe trip home, so comment below to receive 15 Q7 weapons and a Q5 ticket 🙂
something to look at for the journey home... 😃

This was a fantastic read for someone new and I actually understood a lot of this.
I wondered why nothing concrete was coming from my government but you seem to actually have a plan.
I hope to see this actioned and further more.. I hope to see some organisation.
Wipe ourselves and damage ourselves just so some people don't get tax. No thank you
Also I doubt anyone will want to work with IDA until they can prove they can actually hold their own and show more organisation
I know IDA did put some damage into this battle but I saw no real organisation and game changing damage from them like they promise to do
There are days that even a pictures like these can't make it better..
Well - sometime you need to recieve a sucker punch in the face, so things starts to get moveing.. Or a kick in the balls.. Well.. This was more like a kick in the balls for eUK.
But we will be back..!

"1. dont buy products from UK market place buy from a foreign market place instead"
Can't they just set a very high import tax which would gain them a bunch of money from us anyway?
import tax is for when you sell products to another countries market
when buying from another market you pay same price as everyone
Ah, understood. So what about export tax then?
there isnt an export tax just VAT which is same for everyone and import tax which is for selling

o7 Great article.
But your Max Blue statements were out of order because yes all those things happened, but what is the difference between him and the last feckin CP. In my books 90% of them are the same deal and then you get the 10% who are good and actually achieve new things - like Kravenn.
lol. goat's ass licker.
Think what you like, but a CP is a CP and most of them don't do shit. E.g David Cameron, Tony Blair, John Major etc. etc. etc. considering these are real life CPs, think about how useless in-game ones are.
'10% who are good and actually achieve new things - like Kravenn.'
You use Kravenn as your example of a good CP? lolwut
Yeah, she actually did stuff: introduced TG contracts, conquered Norway and Sweden and parts of Finland.
o7 Bro 🙂 Good article!
Sometimes there is nothing better than a bit of danger and an external threat to focus the National Identity.
This Dictatorship is a temporary blip - we will get our country back - guaranteed!
Invaders can empty our treasury (not that there was much left in there) but they can never empty our National identity,
Long live the eUK Resistance!
IDA?
The Idiots & Dumbass Army achieved absolutely zero as expected.
And what did you achieve in the game really?
I'm not the one making grandiose claims so I have nothing to justify
ok so I have got my answer. You have achieved nothing and yet you find yourself qualified to call others idiots and dumbasses when they come to help your country.

thank you IDA and allies for helping us. though we didn't win this one.
Well written article. o7
Great article, some good insight
