eIreland begins process of signing MPP with eMalaysia once again
In what seems to be an important move to prevent stagnation of military and civilian action, eIreland proposes a Military Protection Pact with eMalaysia, which at one time was dropped in favor of an MPP with eSpain.
eUkraine attacks eRomania at Southern Basarabia, eRomania holds on
An eRomanian attack on Southern Basarabia, an originally eMoldovan region, was conquered, then attacked by neighbor eUkraine, a member of the Entente, which did not break the wall, and was secured by eRomania.
What this means for eRomanian interests or eUkrainian policy is yet to be seen, but it is clear that the Entente is definitely pro-Phoenix.
This may in fact be a distraction to bring eRomania away from resistance wars popping up in eBulgaria.
eJapan continues its expedition into the heart of eSouth Korea
eJapan in the last week or two has been the topic of interest in the eWorld, as it has invaded eSouth Korea.
It is not clear if they intend to completely wipe out the small Asian country on the Korean Peninsula, or quit while bagging a few nice vassal states for their Emperor.
Today, there are four open battles between the Brolliance member eJapan and neutral eSouth Korea:
-Gyeongsangbuk-Do: Resistance war
-Gyeongsangnam-Do: Attacked by eJapan
-Chungcheongbuk-Do: Attacked by eJapan
-Chungcheongnam-Do: Attacked by eJapan
Outlook on eIreland, Brolliance and the eWorld
It seems that the war in Europe will continue into the near future, with countries joining in that are relatively new to the fray, such as eBulgaria and eUkraine.
eBulgaria has been sent messages via the newsmedia asking for them to consider joining EDEN as an alternative to being stuck nowhere, by offering the chance to invade eTurkey and eIran in order to satisfy resource needs and RL "tensions".
So far, eBulgaria has not looked tempted, but that may change as the war in Europe evolves.
eJapan seems to have reignited their version of "Manifest Destiny", and has continued to head west and spread through eSouth Korea.
I foresee that as continuing, unless eJapan loses initiative. Currently only eMalaysia is MPP'd with eSouth Korea, but eMalaysia hosts training wars, and may be more interested in fighting in those.
eIreland's signing of eMalaysia's MPP will bring more training wars that citizen fighters can participate in, even when the Defense Forces are deployed elsewhere in an non-MPP fight.

nice
Great update. Thanks.
short, simple and informitive.
Thanks; voted and sub'd!
That brings up something which has been bothering me. We're meant to be neutral, then we join Brolliance because it's a defence alliance, now we help try and invade PHEONIX countries through MPPS and sit back while eJapan invades South Korea. 😒 This just doesn't make any sense to me.
Good article though, very informative
Thanks

I've thought a lot about this, and I had been actively trying to "write" Éire Aontaithe's policies about alliances and neutrality, there was a whole thread on our EA forums about alliances and pros versus cons about joining any of them.
In my opinion, neutrality does nothing for eIreland, and in fact makes us stagnate and makes citizens bored, plus leaves us sitting on our island doing nothing, which is not an attractive prospect.
There is no way that becoming "neutral" again would be beneficial to us, but there will never be a perfect setup with the alliances that we'll always feel morally right about what any of our brother countries do. eJapan is our brother, and while we don't have to agree with certain things they do, we don't have to participate in their invasion. But on the other hand, if they are attacked, we should go all out to help them, even if we disagree with their internal policies.
The problem becomes this: If we have a problem with the morality of invading a small country, then why be part of an alliance with a country that does so. On the other hand, if we withdraw from the defensive alliance, we'll be at risk of going downhill again with boredom.
Regardless of morality, we should support our alliance as a whole.
(There is more that I could probably say about this topic, but I believe you know just as well what the consequences of being out there in the eWorld are.)
We support the alliance, but don't support Japanese aggression with troops.
Japan should be hauled over hot coals for their action.
It's a disgrace we can turn a blind eye.
Meh to ignorance, and hypocrisy.
Nice article Bristel 🙂
