The European Union is a (economical and social) reality. Why trying to blame people who have shared so many things (good ones and bad ones) accross the centuries to group together for fun in a galactical conquest game? (or is it because this scares you?)
The USA got their flag first on the moon; we will get ours first on Alpha Centauri!

Whoooooa Trigger!!! No one said it was a conspiracy. We were just wondering why you wanted to be Impune's Lap Poodle is all. Boy did we stir up the kennel with this one or what? Oh well. Return to such European fun as debating the merits of the Chunnel.

It is nice to see that people from other aliances starting to be courious about us.
Maybe we are a potentional threat ?
Threat.? HEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEE you overestimate yourself. You're either one of two things in this metaverse.
G.R.O.S.S. or G.R.O.S.S. Roadkill.

Look, the Whole World is in AWE of Europe and European resolve. In particular, here at Galciv you've translated that into a formidable Empire. Granted.
But, most of us poor non-Europeans  would just encourage all of you stalwart "Europeans" (and hey, that is something to be Proud of) to form other Empires which will BETTER reflect your very obviously diverse and proud National traditions. You could then be a big fish in a little pond. Just like that new Finnish Empire. Just like Belgium's proud history of being regularly subjugated. Finally, as someone once pointed out: think "eternal damnation" when people and poodles lie down together.

Christopher, maybe we should just form the Former British Possessions Empire. 
| |
|
Pontius, ALL Australians and New Zealanders (and I would guess Americans and Canadians too- maybe not Mid Westerners whatever they are) would be PROUD to be considered a Former British Possession. Let's do it. Because, let's face facts, the British have lost their Empire and maybe aren't too good at Galciv (or at least the jury is not yet in).

Humph. Typical European isolationism.

Christopher, that would be gr8 for you guys. Run it by your empire bosses. My guys would say no however. They are fond of our name and our empire. I owe it to them to stay true to it. But I think it would be gr8 for you guys. And the British playing these games seem content to submit themselves to other's will. So I don't think you'd get much help from them.
Oh, go and discuss your 'Former British Possession' stuff somewhere else, or can't you help yourself and is this the only way you can give in to your urge to be involved with the European Alliance

Tell me again just why I'd want to be one of Impune's Lap Poodles? I didn't quite get that.

Pontius, its patently clear that the "Europeans" (and we Aussies now call ourselves "Southern Hemisphereans") don't want us on their thread. Indeed, I think they've left Galciv altogether based upon their scores.
We Southern Hemisphereans really look up to the Northern Hemisphere and especially the homeland as many of us still refer to Mother England. Gosh, we still have a European monarch. I want to know what happened to that Bulldog spirit, that spirit epitomized by their cricket team, their soccer team, their swimmers... Doh.

And don't forget that ski jumper. Eddie the Eagle. That's the olde spirit.

Ok, guys
This is the thing: I really wish we could have our own website, but, right now, I feel we should keep the forum in this thread. Why? For two main reasons:
1- It really is a source of comic relief. When you read a guy from the midwestern whatsoever saying that Belgium has no culture nor soul you can only embark on hysterical laughter.
2- I think this people are starting to get an idea of what Europe is really about. While we hear gross statements on the nature of our alliance, people all around the world should know that we are about a lot more than a united currency and some common institutions. We come from the continent that has shaped world history, for the better and for the worse, that has been torned apart by major wars, who have now decided to come together. All of this should not be done in secret - let the world read about how swedes, for example, benefit from the efforts that have been made to unite the continent, let the world realise that we are as proud to be french, italian or whatever as being europeans. Because I am. Let them think, if they want, in conspiracy theories, let the scores, and our forum, do the talk.
Nice to have you all here in our thread, you are obviously here and not in the gross communication thread for one reason. And do not hesitate to ask questions - 
The warmest welcome to all new members. Changes will be soon made in the senate.
Hey, I cannot go on holidays for a week that you guys top the tables
