So I lost an election, but I didn’t lose the argument. Why? Because there was none to be had, our new President, for all his worthy ideas and ideals has not been voted in for anything he said, only for his tribal allegiance.
I think tribal allegiance is the best way to say it. I would like everyone to stop saying nasty things about Croats – I know too many decent Croats to hear this anymore. But the LnL tribe is a different matter, their bloc voting has thrown political discourse into irrelevance – why argue about an issue, when it doesn’t matter? Why shout when you will not be heard? Why bother talking to a president when he’ll be out of the office, and probably the country, by next month as he passes the hat over to the next person in LnL who’s turn it is to be President?
All this was obvious. We knew the fate this once inspiring ecountry now held. But the one thing we could do was hold some semblance of unity against this common threat to the very survival of Egypt as a pluralist society. This is my greatest regret. That we could not hold a proud and united face against the stranglehold this tribe has over our enation.
This is not a pure malfunction of the mechanics of the game, but actually a true reflection of reality. How do you think the old regime of RL Egypt held on to power, even when there were supposed elections? The tactics are different but the outcome the same – the suppression of political discourse and of the intellectual evolution of a nation. Across the Arab world, including in the RL Egypt, the people found an answer to this malaise. People gathered, still gather, in the central squares of cities across the Arab world and in peace and non-violence declared ‘enough!’.
Today I declare ‘enough’. I will stand in the centre of Tunis, Tahrir Square in Cairo, Taghyeer square in Sana’a, and in all the burned out Squares of Homs, Dera, Manama, Tripoli, Benghazi, and Taiz – and declare ‘enough’.
Will you join me?

Well, Vote! I always vote for calling for unity.
However,
I think Lock'n'Load has taught all of us eEgyptians a valuable lesson. United we stand, divided we fall. Now try to take most of the situation and involve in running this country. There is no better thing in this kind of situation that brings people together, but working and playing together for better eEgypt.

Yes, Ahmed AE, I somewhat agree with Franz Kafka on this part about Filthy Croats. Unless you wanted to insult me as well, Ahmed?
Calling bad names will not help anyone, it's only a way of expressing helplessness. So get involved and do something to help eEgypt.
Ahmed AE, I am sorry if that is a lesson you have learned. Croats have reputation to be the most loyal and the best allies in this game, who would even sacrifice their regions and homeland to help their allies. LnL as a MU still has to prove loyalty to eEgypt. Give them a chance once more and try to work with them and learn from them. They are all mostly experienced players, who might teach you a trick or two in this game. I doubt that they came here to steal money, they could do better in other, perhaps more populated countries. I guess they only want to play this game, just like you do.
Lmao....Give them a chance...are you Serious...this is hilariouse tbh...and no..they know there is no chance they could ever get their congress medal in croatia so they come to countries like egypt..take over it. steal the money etc..this is called PTO
they are not experienced in anything but in PTO...and LnL have given all croats a bad name
i officially hate Croats now.... you are RL croats behind the computer screen, you have changed in alot of Egyptian eyes...Croats are nothing but filthy money stealing PTOers....i will remain picturing you guys this way untill you prove otherwise... we are not even trying to get the country back. im just sitting and watching you prove my point
ha ha its ahmed again xD xD well cry me river.
i must say you are racist and bad trol
janko koji k ti se furas sa ovim mamlazima, kad pomislim da sam tjeo srat grcima kad su bili napali egipat zlo mi dode za ovake rasiste

@Ahmed AE
Received insults are forgiven but not forgotten. You have a lot of work to distinguish individuals from groups and nations.
ahmed ae
you are boring.. everyone knows that u are liar and just a bad troll... ;😉)
now stfu and leave normal people alone! no mercy for traitor of Egypt's citizen!
^this
sad trolling ahmed (edd_dread) former member of egypt congress is a member of croatian congress so please stop your trolling and start helping the country
This is a game, and every player can go to whatever country he wants and play game as he likes... and by insulting others (and whole nation) wont get you anything good, that only shows what kind of person you are...
I guess since we dont have a president I keep my position. That's pretty awesome.

President of eEgypt
Its all about democracy and being raped!
in many aspects, this game reflects RL! unfortunately, some people only enjoy when they abuse the game on the expense of others
I agree with Franz, the political module is very weak in this game! we know that rl matters, but nothing is done to reflect that! in this game RL nationalism counts (see Croatia vs Serbia)! it might not count much for Americans, as i noted that they really do not have that complex, and they play the game as game without the ill patriotism!!!
Attack in gangs, it proves your right.
