United Left Alliance

|
The United Left Alliance was a political party in Belgium. It was re-created in 2013 by MCKitkat to offer Belgium a real left party.
History
On eDay 2016 (28th May 2013) the party was recreated by MCKitkat as United Leftist Party, the name United Left Party being already used [1]. The main goal of this recreation was to offer a real left party, where people could defend their ideals while still following the initial goals of uniting the country and having fun.
On the 15th of June, Zangetsu-osan won the Party President elections. During his time as PP, the member number fell from 6 to 1 (MCKitkat had left the party in order to help in the Anti-Take-Over measures).
On 6th of July, MCKitkat decided to put an end on the ULA, according to him, the ULA wasn't needed in Belgium as the people there seemed not interested in the ideals of the ULA. One day the ULA will come back but until then the project ULA is finished.
Ideology
United Community
When we strive for a united community, a socialist organization is indispensable. It is important that all active members and supporters have a clear vision on what the ULA can do for the citizens in eBelgium. It goes without saying that our vision is in constant development. Discussion is therefore vital for ULA. Discussion, education, and not in the least Solidarity.
ULA wants a form of society based on equality, solidarity, and social fairness.
Why ULA in eBelgium? Mostly it's because we find it's the most sensible way for us to keep enjoying playing the game. Can we really be amused by racking up points in never-ending battles, or winning "honours’’ by getting elected to some silly thing, by working hard, or by getting rich by running a business? We in ULA, will be thinking about the game in a critical manner, especially its social aspects. Who is really profiting from various actions? Can the mechanics of the game be approached in a different way? What can we do to add some spice up the reality of the moment. And can we do that in a way that lifts people up; so that in some small way, and perhaps challenges some preconceived notions about "the way things should have been?”
More than achieving winning in elections
We want the achievement of ULA to be more than winning in elections. We want to bring solidarity back in eBelgium. It is easier said than done. It is sometimes difficult to discover what people want, and it is usually difficult to organize them. People have often superficial, sloppy, and have incoherent ideas, especially when they are new in the game We see it as the task of ULA to inform and educate them.
Respect for individuals
People attach great importance to their development, personal interests, and individual liberty. A good community cannot exist without individual freedom, limited only by the consideration that freedom does not harm the community...
The basis of this is that everyone remembers that eRepublik is only a game, and not more than that. The community around it consists of people and individuals like you, and they have feelings like everyone. Respect and the ability to look further than the things that are said are keywords to keep the community healthy.
It's a small world after all
eRepublik is an international game and there is more out there than simply eBelgium. We aspire to work together with like-minded, democratic parties abroad, not just because we believe it will improve eBelgium, but also because we truly understand we can learn from our friends abroad.
