What is overprotection ?
If you were active in the game in the past weeks you'd notice how the prices of good has went downhill, to the level of having some certain things becoming dirt cheap, that's all because of Overproduction, there is more produce than demand, and it is becoming an issue, a crisis some World Leaders would call it, just how like some of the following countries leaders (Bulgaria, France, Japan, Lithuania, Romania) has responded to our question.
Here is what has the president said about the "Overproduction phenomenon"

I believe the game is advancing too fast. There is high possibility that next war will be mostly fought with q5 weapons for majority of players. Do we really want that? In my opinion q5 should be like royalty. We can't expect people to fight as hard as world war 2 all the time (lots of time required to command and manage country), and even then there were plenty of times where it was struggle to sell supply. At this point we only need to look at what we can do to counter that, some examples could be:
1. More meaningful tournaments. (Better prizes, better UI, and shorter). Its a MUST, especially if there aren't global scale wars active.
2. Raise pollutions, maybe go with a route that industrial buildings are more useful?
3. Reduce NPC spawn after like 20th npc? We dont want to higher prices right away, as it would lead to more PTOs. But at some point, generation should be slower.
4. Reduce NPC production. I personally have no opinion about how it could logically work yet.
5. Find ways to make managing country less demanding, so we would be more willing to go into wars more often. I mostly mean transfering supps through market. Let us at least directly donate to MUs, country, holdings. Its painful to move everything from one entity to another and look out for currency, storage space, raws

It's normal for peace periods like this. Lack of real battles and the small number of total battles means people don't have a place where to spend their stuff, And despite that everyone keep producing daily and stocks keep growing to the point where storages are full and they are forced to lower the prices of supplies more and more
France | Majestic Doggo
It's hell, we've got a saturated market in France after the war we're forced to fire French people because we can't pay their salaries anymore the state is going to start investing in holding companies so we can pay our people the economy is kinda dead, A lot of people have left the game which doesn't help stock sales either
We expected the markets to be saturated in a long time and not just in 4 months the departure of players coupled with the increase of NPCs has made the market saturated at high speed the NPCs don't consume enough for us to have a healthy market and everyone is self sufficient (everyone is able to produce these weapons as it food) not helping the drainage of stocks
We secretly hope that admin's event will make the stock run out but we have big doubts given the success of the Christmas event
Japan | Safer
Its a bubble, overproduction does not exist. The simple thing is that gold is very limited in this game, which makes it valuable. Products wont sell for gold unless there is a very good reason for it, which during peace there is not much reason to keep buying things.
Producers want to sell more, buyers don't have a strong incentive to spend valuable gold. When a real war happens all this overproduction you say disapears in 7 days as it was proved 2 world wars now.
Due to my busy life and online time i didn't manage to find time to ask more presidents, and didn't wanna delay the article furthermore, hope you enjoy reading this.
