J.D.S - Interview with the Macadonian MoFA
Joey Development Scheme
Well as you may have read in our media we are about to go to war...again. Having regained New South Wales we have seen the Republic of Macedonia declare us a natural enemy as we have with them. You will be aware of course that the Republic of Macedonia currently holds all the regions of our ANZAC brothers and allies - New Zealand.
So In this article we have a brief but friendly interview with the Republic of Macedonia MoFA - BucephalusIII who was kind enough to offer some of his time to us. And as usual we will feature the J.D.S tasks that are available to new and young players and a huge shout out to those who have donated so far this month...so, lets kick this off shall we?
Well as we stated we will soon face the Republic of Macedonia on the battlefield and this will be a new experience to the majority of some of you. To be completely honest your Directors (Myself - Dr Hugh and Claire Louise) have both fought alongside Macedonia while we were in the eUK under the banner of the ONE alliance. Our experiences with the people of Macedonia has always been positive so we thought why not allow you the opportunity to hear from their Minister of Foreign Affairs?
Now, please remember this is just a game afterall and today's foes are tomorrows allies so let us be respectful in this campaign and lets enjoy it. Also please note that BucephalusIII happily gave up his time to speak to us -
1, Why the NE against eAustralia by the Republic of Macedonia?
It is about something that we had to do to help our allies in this game which are in our alliance (CoT) and Australia is not.
2, What are your thoughts about Australia?
In RL 1/3 of my family lives there..i think your getting the picture
🙂, in this game i dont have any defined thoughts cause to be honest I didnt had any contact with Australian player on diplomatic way or an ordinary communication
3, What is it like in the Macedonia community?
Macedonian community this last year had an fall with the number of the active citizens so we are trying with everything we can to make something fun/interesting to get their attention or gain new BB (Baby Boom)
4, You have achieved a lot in eRepublik, what is your country's greatest achievement?
There was many moments of our history which brought eMacedonia toa a point of great achievements, were they on political or on the battlefield. I will mention only several from all of them: The firs conquering of several African regions in the time when we were young country, crossing all Europe and successfully helping Spain to free from Brasil, 10/10 resources, conquering Iran,UAE, part of the Saudi Arabia and transferring the capital in UAE.
5, What five words would you use to describe the people of the Republic of Macedonia?
Very emotional(behind this lies a big reason), patriotic but not nationalistic, very friendly and warm welcoming, loyal friends.
6, You were once a strong member of ONE, do you see your long term future in CoT?
I wont comment about ONE, but I will say only this that CoT is an alliance where every country has an equal rights, trust between countries and the friendship is infront of the resources. That makes CoT so different than the other alliances and as long is stays like this Macedonia wont change the alliance...ever.
...and with that I would like to thank again the Macedonian MoFA for taking the time, effort and good will to respond and answer these questions.
A huge thank you to those who have donated this month, without you we wouldn't be able to do what we do and provide vital food and weapons to our young players. Your noble deeds and generous actions are what makes this community great.
If you would like to make any donation (no matter how large or small) to the Joey Development Scheme then please send whatever you can to either Claire-Louise or Dr Hugh Jardon and it will be logged and recorded.
The tasks are designed to help new players to eAustralia and if you complete any of these tasks then you will receive 200 Q4 food and 5 Q7 tanks for each task completed. When you have completed a task contact Directors Claire-Louise or Dr Hugh Jardon and we will send you your rewards. It really is that simple because your Government really just wants to help you find your feet, there are no catches, you do not have to repay the rewards back at a later date. So, what are the tasks? - Well you can find them fully listed and explained just by clicking HERE . Good luck and happy hunting.

o/ my broo... 😘
good interview
but some how I don't believe they are trying to help their allies. the truth is Macedonia is strong country...knowing this they became cocky and mad more enemies than they can handle. as a result of their actions they lost their original regions and started to conquer smaller countries...that's why they are here.
Either way it'll be a new adversary on the battlefield for eAustralai and a pleasant change from the usual Indonesia fighting.
now we are a smaller country too xD so even if we win,you'll get your victory against us easier then in indo's case

We needed some bloody peace, we needed to build, but all we get are enemies everywhere with everyone holding a stupid grudge against us, and that I just cannot understand at all.
After all, what have we ever done to Macedonia ?... not a single thing. Just remember who started this, it wasn't us.
They needed secure regions away from strong TWO neighbors and sadly we bore that brunt. To be honest I want an Independent Australia but I recognise its a game and we would have done the same in their position.
Actually, we wouldn't. Even when we invaded New Zealand and Peru it was never with the intention of staying past a war. Its one of the reasons we find it so hard to airstrike... we love this soil too much.
Difference is eAustralia went on the march with a senate already there. Macedonia didn't have that so chose to airstrike New Zealand. I would rather have Indo on my doorstep than the enemies (our allies) that they have.
Indo are pretty unreasonable.

That quote is total BS. CoT treated Australia as if we were dogs and slaves, so he is not telling the truth. I will never forgive CoT for the evils it has done to Australia. CoT is a pile of shit and that alliance must be exterminated for the overall good of the game and for Australia. The way CoT treated us is the total opposite of what this guy said.
All countries in CoT are equal. Some are just more equal than others.
