State Gazette: A Week in War Era Belgium #3

State Gazette: A Week in War Era Belgium #3

Welcome to another edition of the Belgian State Gazette, your weekly recap of the chaos, success, and questionable decisions that make our country the most entertaining place in War Era!

Monday:

https://preview.redd.it/q3dj3s0owv1h1.png?width=1402&format=png&auto=webp&s=30cb757f3f4638b6b080f979b32699b1dbacc141

Where is Eco Era? Our president promised us a quiet month of eco in his campaign. But let's be serious, the game is called War Era, our allies were yapping:

>Why is Belgium not helping us?

>Where are those strong, muscular smurfs when we need them!

>Please Babu come help us!

So we locked up our factories, swapped our farming clothes for tactical gear, and starting blasting at the Portuguese soldiers that were lost in Northern Africa.

It didn't take long for our great country to join the top 10 of weekly damages yet again, great job troops!

All Belgian passports revoked! Imagine coming home from a long day of work, opening your phone to play some War Era, and finding out that you're no longer Belgian on the Discord. Well it happened to every single Belgian on Monday night. The government installed a cutting-edge, impenetrable new border control! Every single Belgian had to prove their nationality in order to regain access, typical Belgian bureaucracy!

Tuesday:

Two new Belgian mods! Vatou recognizes that Belgians simply are the best in everything. Today, new moderators for the game were chosen, among which, two Belgians! Congrats to Belgmender and JacqueDeBalsac!

We pushed Portugal all the way back to the Iberian peninsula today, great efforts were made by allied forces including Belgium. Winning this war means that we secured our Iron bonus in Egypt! At least for now.

Wednesday:

The Department of Domestic affairs is reporting the new Discord structure is in a testing phase.

Today we fought with Panama against the Venezuelans, 54 million+ damage was done across the battle by Belgium, and victory secured!

Thursday:

Today is Ascension. For a lot of Belgians, the start of an extended weekend. Not for me though, but that's not really relevant.

A guide for new players. The department of education will publish a guide for new players this weekend. With the game getting more complicated each update, this will definitely come in handy for our new recruits!

Our Dutch friends invited us to play 'weerwolven van Wakkerdam' with them. I hope they will keep the howling at night to a minimum.

Friday:

Nothing worth mentioning on Friday, except for our troops still doing loads of damage!

https://preview.redd.it/4uhcoasuwv1h1.png?width=1536&format=png&auto=webp&s=94c08cc91cb1f66aa911b85c5f0162ed2bf4441f

Saturday:

The government asks your opinion! A question was raised in congress:

>Where do you want to see Belgium go in the future?

The government believes the people should have a say in this as well! A community poll will be released, which will be a nice opportunity for everyone to vote on the long-term direction of our country.

Sunday:
Sunday is tournament day! Stay tuned to see what MU made it the furthest in next weeks edition.

Small sidenote, a tournament needs a power of 2 as total amount of teams, so some teams skip the first round to accommodate. Those teams are marked as 'Bye'.

First round draw:
- Royal Air Force (Team 535) - Filhos Do Pao
- The Schtroumpfs (Team 8) - GUERREROS DEL SOL
- Belgian Black Devils (Team 47): Bye
- Belgian Armed Forces (Team 707) - Add Stock Companies

Forget 12 Points, Let’s Take 12 Regions in War Era!

Tonight, Belgium will probably not get to the final of Eurovision—but in War Era, we’re already winning. No off-key singing, no wind machines, just pure strategy, betrayal, and the occasional frites-fueled victory.

While Europe votes for the best song, we’re voting for the best way to crush our enemies. Whether you’re a mastermind president, a logistics legend (supplying troops with bier and bullets), or just here to roast the Dutch, we’ve got a role for you.

Why Join?

  • No talent required (unlike Eurovision).
  • 5 minutes a day to outsmart Europe.
  • 300+ Belgians scheming in Discord—because misery loves company.

Enlist now: https://app.warera.io

P.S. If we lose in Eurovision, at least we’ll win in War Era. Probably.

State Gazette: A Week in War Era Belgium #2

Welcome to another edition of the Belgian State Gazette, your weekly recap of the chaos, success, and questionable decisions that make our country the most entertaining place in War Era!

Monday:

Vatou made Louis Georges Boulanger president again! What a chaos last week, Belgium without a president! Our good friend Vatou made sure we didn't have to go through the hassle of going to the voting booth again and appointed the winner of the elections back in his role of president.

https://preview.redd.it/w8kui57v6g0h1.jpg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7cd63a787c2621e07b2a029682b0dcedc7f4b50d

Our new president got straight to work. Not only did he install a new government, the ministers now get help from very capable slaves cabinet employees! Is this going to improve our government, or is it just a way for our president lay back in his chair and delegate all the work? Time will tell!

I present to you, the government Louis Georges Boulanger I:

https://preview.redd.it/fz0yrszl5g0h1.jpg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ceb0dcfa1850f378c8e0a596870e5a36f2e7864c

President: LouisG-Boulanger

Vice-president: buhdeuce

Minister of Economy: De_Nederbelg
Cabinet: Dimitri De Tremmerie, Defelle & Cornet

Minister of Defence: Rups
Cabinet: Poyoo, Father Abraham & Duke

Minister of Foreign Affairs: Nicol
Cabinet: Babu & Jan Alleman

Next to these, some 'unofficial' ministers have been appointed:

Minister of Education: BelgianSuccubus
Cabinet: Babu, Santiago2be & Svzwouter

Minister of Domestic Affairs: Bogger
Cabinet: Dimitri De Tremmerie, Poyoo & AkimboPanda

Minister of Technology: JacqueDeBalsac
Cabinet: Nicol & Marc Durboyse

Minister of Intelligence: AkimboPanda
Cabinet: Poyoo, Jan Alleman & Cornet

Tuesday:

Another week of alliances snapping? No worries, irrelevant alliances are removed as they cost our country a lot of money. We remain friends with our allies, even if this is not always visible in-game!

The newly installed departments from the government have immediately started to do their work, a quick overview:

  • Advice on stocking up gear & sustainable war builds
  • Reorganizing Discord
  • New recruitment campaigns
  • Flipping the market

After the presidential campaign follows the congress elections, this day marked the start where candidates could register themself. Who will be voting our laws for the upcoming month? Who will be re-elected, will we have new congress members and who will lose his seat at the table? Stay tuned for the results!

Today we mark a new milestone for our country, an active population of 350 players!

https://preview.redd.it/tk4i2k1u5g0h1.png?width=421&format=png&auto=webp&s=60b5f12e87b60d730da547c56efa2ccb37fa6197

Wednesday:

Wednesday started with the game being down, and that on congress election day! At last the voting booths opened, for the second time in two weeks, the Belgians queued patiently waiting at their local school, town hall or sports hall to vote. 38 candidates for 20 seats. Keep reading for the results! Of the 'old' congress, 6 members did not put themselves up for re-election, we thank them for their work of the last month!

In other news, our Dutch neighbors broke the alliance with our country. Just to save money off course, we know how they are.

https://preview.redd.it/kk9rjfrw5g0h1.png?width=246&format=png&auto=webp&s=07af824e3476cfdfe57d32741184274648a6aec3

Thursday:

It was early in the morning when the results came in, a new Belgian congress is elected! Congratulations and good luck to all 20 congress members. And to the citizens that missed their seat in congress, keep your head up, keep working hard, and try again next month! Some stats & facts:

  • Babu has the most experience in congress, with 5 elections
  • 8 members of the 'old' congress were re-elected
  • Only one member of the previous congress did not get re-elected
  • 12 members were not in the previous congress, for 10 of these, it's their very first time
  • 176 citizens voted (Belgiums active population is around 350)
  • MRW (the party of the president) is with 4 seats the largest represented party
  • PISS and Tank Belang both have 1 seat and are therefor the smallest parties in congress

I was a bit shocked to see that the former president of Sweden made it into Belgian congress! I would have asked him for a reaction, but he seems to be muted for his behavior.

https://preview.redd.it/hrur27iz5g0h1.png?width=124&format=png&auto=webp&s=e9b1ab6a59fbeb69c1419a8564556ad827853ec5

Also, if you are wondering how broke our country really is since our last war:

https://preview.redd.it/mqd8h6c36g0h1.png?width=345&format=png&auto=webp&s=5f2d327d9d69e8dc1d9394aa32ddcc947aa02e42

The Department of Education created a commander training, this will be available for members over level 15 that are part of the 14th Medical Battalion.

Friday:

The new congress is definitely keeping their promises, laws are being voted at the speed of light! Keep it up guys!

Meanwhile, the Department of Domestic Affairs is reporting that the entire Discord will be reworked. I sure hope we get some more channels!

For over two months, Belgium and The Netherlands had shared occupancy of the regions of the United Kingdom and Ireland. This day, with SE England being reclaimed by the UK, marks an end of that era. The citizens across the channel however remain deeply grateful for the gastronomy of the Low Countries. Until we meet again lads!

Saturday:

Saturday was a quiet day, were the Belgians hungover from Friday night? Who knows, but the government reports that the departments are working are very hard behind the scenes for their ministers.

Our Minister of Defense came with a nice plan for our MUs to have more consistent damage output, go check it out in Discord if you haven't yet!

Sunday:

Most of Belgium celebrates mothers day today, so most of the Belgians were stuck in line at the flower shop, or were spending time with their mothers.

Our president however is on vacation, so naturally without a leader our government is relaxing a bit. He did send us a postcard:

Welcome to the first edition of the Belgian State Gazette, your weekly recap of the chaos, success, and questionable decisions that make our country the most entertaining place in War Era!

Monday:

Venezuela's capital under fire! Over 1 billion damages dealt in total, but unfortunately for us, they were able to defend their crucial piece of land.
Little sidenote, over 1 million damage was dealt per citizen the week before!

https://preview.redd.it/c3ghcvz7v9zg1.jpg?width=731&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9bcc08f2225acf761ab351539dff38bc171dba45

Another desperate call was made from our government to put your steel factories in Iraq, and not Venezuela, not only do you support our allies, but we have a tax deal making part of the taxes flow right back to Brussels!

A weird sight on Monday, our country was not blue anymore! No it was not the PISS alliance that finally managed to put their color on the map, it was orange! Our Dutch friends celebrated their kings birthday. And as the good allies that we are, we showed our support by coloring ourselves orange, not long after almost the whole world joined, the Belgians are real trendsetters! Check it out: WarEra celebrates Koningsdag!

Tuesday:

Lots of Belgians were drained from the great war efforts and went back to their farms and factories in eco. Meanwhile, our Dutch and French friends were dealing with heavy resistance, while our war efforts end, others are just getting started!

In other news, a lot of allies were removed to reduce the costs, that doesn't mean they are no longer our friends! You can always find an up-to-date version of our allies in Discord!

Wednesday:

Country tournament time! With a lot of Belgians in eco, and the fact that our draw was not very favorable, it was decided to not put our efforts here, we were eliminated first round, so no elite chests to gamble with unfortunately, better luck next time!

https://preview.redd.it/oc68wjhcw9zg1.png?width=64&format=png&auto=webp&s=786238a42f6d28e99db4e1521fedad42d235b906

The Netherlands were dealing with heavy revolts from Norway, we helped where we could, but could not avoid a loss of terrain.

We saw from our lookout posts in the East Cantons that a lot of troops with an upside down Belgian flag were marching in Germany, I hope they steer clear of our beautiful country!

Thursday:

The Dutchies faced big revolts again, but they managed to stand their ground, good job neighbors!

To avoid Venezuela becoming market leader in steel, our allies Iraq and South-Africa swapped their specialization. If this is all too complicated for you, let me make it simple: move your steel companies to South-Africa and move your limestone mines to Iraq.

https://preview.redd.it/qqcgjmqhw9zg1.png?width=282&format=png&auto=webp&s=9058a22e98e9e1617b44bee406204337bc145404

https://preview.redd.it/5r1fm8biw9zg1.png?width=278&format=png&auto=webp&s=29ee3bf9b4442e2408718024b0942fff03a24c26

Friday:

Labor day today, and the start of a sunny 'verlengd weekend'! Looks like our government decided to actually go outside for once instead of playing War Era, as the government chat was nearly dead, or so I was told.

This day also marked the start of the presidential campaign, which traditionally starts with the opportunity to register yourself to the ballot, we had 6 citizens who thought they could handle running this country, keep reading to see who wins!

Saturday:

Voting day! Our president Nicol did not wish to continue to rule this chaotic country, we want to thank her for her efforts! But today is all about finding a replacement for the coming month. I hope you all voted for 'de goei'!

As the tradition goes, a bit of trolling by the president to go out with a bang, a law was proposed to color the country yellow! I was however quickly awakened from my dream to see a yellow Belgium as the vote was rejected. Even worse, a new vote was started by the congress to impeach Nicol as president, how will this end!

https://preview.redd.it/rmx5llj9v9zg1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4be3c397a84df75431a8f562ecd34676b2140b58

Sunday:

It was very early in the morning when the voting ended and all ballots were counted and recounted, a new president was chosen! A big congrats to Louis Georges Boulanger of the MRW party!

https://preview.redd.it/gpnwq9wtw9zg1.png?width=403&format=png&auto=webp&s=a47c954bb45d7546abbfd343e600d143e6275e05

But what happened after shocked the world! 2 minutes after our new president was given his mandate. The vote to impeach the president, that was created as a joke the day before to kick out former president Nicol, went into action. What a scene, Belgium woke up, not with a new president, but without one! Belgium without a government, this game is getting too realistic!

https://preview.redd.it/p5lc3hscx9zg1.png?width=431&format=png&auto=webp&s=26fb15bff9a52e737a4297a6b2a4cf66b50ef8b3

As the tradition goes, the infamous 'government files' were released, a look into the government chat of the past month, check it out in Discord if you haven't already! (link to War Era BE Discord)

Total chaos the day after election day! How does it end you ask?
