Gotta Make Our Minds Up, Which Path Will We Take?
Shoi12
Terra is a mess. The new age is coming. The new alliance will change everything, again. What I'm talking about is the emergence of talks between Spain, Brazil, and the US, among other parties, forming an alliance, first widespread here. If this idea comes to fruition, and it most likely will, it will spark a new era, where friends become enemies and enemies become friends. The question is, where will Canada stand?
As of right now, there are three major alliances: EDEN, pro-EDEN Terra, and rival ONE. However, this new alliance would gut out two of Terra's strongest nations, Brazil and USA. It would also cut Spain and most likely Poland from ONE, along with Croatia, China, and Argentina as possible additions. This could, if all is as planned, make the new alliance the most powerful in the game. The eRepublik's own Miami Heat could destroy in its path. Think about who's in the way.
Without founders Brazil, Argentina, and USA, the only major nation left in Terra is Russia, and formidable as they be, they alone are no match for the new alliance, codename SUPER (Strong and United Power in E-Republik). Even with other decent 'powers' like Belarus and France, Terra will be helpless. On top of that, most of SUPER, save USA, are not fond of the Frenchies, so there's that.
Alright, so what about EDEN? EDEN does have some countries with formidable power, but the main focus for SUPER is to leave the Balkans alone, while EDEN focuses in the Balkans. Portugal and Spain are rivals, but Spain's shown that when push comes to shove it can beat Portugal, and China won't be an adversary, but rather an ally this time. On top of that, deceivingly strong Croatia may jump ship and work with SUPER.
The last group is ONE, and by far the most interesting. Of course, the greatest variable is whether or not Poland joins Spain, though it is highly likely they will go with the Spaniards. Where does leave ONE? They only have FYROM, stuck in their hundred-year war with Greece, and Serbia, who while expansive is still stuck in the south. Slovakia and Moldova are stuck with Ukraine creepily grinning at them. Bulgaria's strong, but though Turkey's weak they somehow put up resistance quite well. Especially with two of their greatest members jumping ship, there's no way for them to fight back against such a powerful group.
So it's pretty clear there's not much stopping such a group. So, as good friends with the US, where do us Canadians go? Do we stick with dying Terra or do we hitch a ride with the Americans? As a country only recently returning to respectability, we need to make ourselves worthy of worship. And what better way than to go to the strongest alliance? Maybe being America's hat isn't the worst thing after all. And look at what we could do!

Until next time, take care!

Best regards
Poland, Germany, France and Spain in one alliance. They can't expand fully then.
Also I would recommend choosing either Turkey or Bulgaria, preferably Bulgaria there.
I hope you guys are ready for another occupation by Poland...
I don't think they will just sacrifice war on you and the U.S. just to be stuck with their worst enemies
@ GameChanger I agree.
@shoi12 Firstly Poland is ONE of UK's greatist allies. Also think how much land/resources they would have to give up o_0. Sorry but you got no hope. Secondly Spain tut tut why have you got this in your head >_> SPAIN BORDERS SERBIA AND SOON POLAND. If they left ONE they will be wiped in days.
USA citizens are thinking of leaving Terra.
Your alliance Terra is falling apart.
EDEN is in a mess because of its HQ
If anything more countries will join ONE not TEDEN.
BTW i love your articles keep it up mate 😉
Despite whats been said i can guarantee you that the Spanish are more than happy in ONE. Once Poland have wiped the Yanks it'll be interesting to see how the canada vs Poland war spans out, especially as at the minute weve been told to focus on evicting the Yanks and not the Canadians
No one picked up on the title reference : (
@Brits Spain has long thought that they've been neglected in battles. Remember when China + Portugal wiped them? They had no backup to help them out, and I agree with several articles from higher-ups that them leaving is a possibility. And, in addition, Poland and Spain are bros for life, so they will probably stick together. And as for France, they're not going to be in this alliance because Brozil can't stand them. --->
--->As for Bulgaria, I think they're more than happy with Serbia. And if they joined this new alliance, I guarantee Serbia will munch up all of their lands in a heartbeat. The reason this alliance WILL work is because it avoids the Balkans, where the most stupid wars are taking place. I mean, FYROM vs Greece will NEVER end, period. But as for Terra, it'll have no one left besides Russia and France after USA and the South Americas leave, so I'd think that tagging along is the best option. --->
---> And this alliance really depends on Poland. Spain, USA, and Brozil are guarantees, and Argentina and Croatia are nice, but Poland is super powerful, and controls most of Germany and France. If they join, half of western Europe is part of the alliance, along with China, who has the strength to give good support. Most of Poland's borders are with neutrals like Belgium and Czech Rep. and with average ONE countries like Slovakia and Switzerland. If Poland joins the alliance, it'll be unbeatable
@ Redcoats (brits) ^__^ uh Spain is clearly not happy in ONE and that has been pointed out many times since last Christmas, and uh I am pretty sure Poland is closer to Spain than the UK so thats awkward
^ *by closer I mean relations wise
Feel free to leave ONE as well, UK. We'd be happy to have an ally in the region. We want to invade Drunktopia anyway, so might as well stick with Poland and Spain, eh?
I got it Shoi, Friday right?
Canuckicans! http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/oh-canada1-2065228/1/20
You lot really are grasping at straws if your holding out on the hope of Spain leaving ONE.
Still the next week or so will be very interesting for Canada, U.S. and ONE
as an ex member of the espanish armed recruitment forces I can say that our new gov and the general populace do NOT want to leave ONE. There was a small group trying this out in the previous noob gov and the china invasion, but the nation turned against the president when it was leaked
Still wouldn't be surprised even with all that in mind.We all know ONE never puts Spain as top priority, instead putting Serbia and Poland up there instead. Will Spain want an alliance that puts its needs first, or will it tough it out? That's something to be answered within the next month.
