Seeing Sosa Sosta post on this matter, made me want to make my own article. Given the fact that this leader has given us Croatian's a chance to thrive and escape the changing government within my homeland.

I was born in Croatia on Day 224. Brought into this game by a friend who chose Croatia as his own birthplace on Day 206. Together we created businesses to assist our growth and were invited to Martial_Ant's Political/Military Parties.

Overtime, the Bulargia leaving conflict had everyone within the surrounding areas fighting over provinces and being backstabbed by Alliances and solo Nations alike so that Croatia was unable to expand from their mainland. At the time, everyone was bullying us into submission as we watched and struggled to gain what we could outside our borders. (This is my own perspective as I did not know the greater scheme when I started)

Being a part of the inner talking of Croatia, we saw that people within our own Nation were losing hope in our development. Which brought on the government of Manga in the coming future. We continued our journey in hopes we could handle ourselves diplomatically and defensively. But in time, it came time for the presidential election. We had lost too much of the popularity vote to succeed in either Presidential/Congress elections. Leaving Manga as the winner and immediately changing everything we stood for. 

With that verdict, most of the previous government left to continue and escape prosecution for our beliefs in the Croatia's future. (Might be a bit much in roleplay but true) We had no other option to look elsewhere as we felt the whole world was against us. This is where Sosa Sosta comes into play. Each of us contacted the current President of USA at the time, explaining our situation and willingness to assist as we could to earn the trust of the US Congress with no ill will intended on anyone but to show the world a better life together.

Sosa Sosta showed us hospitality when it seemed there was no way out of our position. Most other Nations closed their borders or just watched as Croatia began to crumble due to the changing government. Throughout the "Land of Opportunities" in the West, many Croatian's were welcomed as understanding of the situation grew within the US Citizens.

It has been a little over a month since this took place. Dating from an article that Martial_Ant published himself within Croatia on the matter named, "A new beginning" on 23-05-2025.

Now it seems like things are turning around in Croatia in some regard. Martial_Ant is now Vice President. But it looks like Manga still holds 40% of Congress while another 40% don't have a party at all. We all hope that Martial_Ant's Parties regain the popularity for a better future ahead.

And if you haven't read yet, here is Sosa Sosta's article, "Long Live Free Croatia !" on 07-07-2025.
