Politics

Eire Aonair's principle political values are outlined in their constitution. Additional political stances are decided democratically by the members of the party through a process of proposal and voting. Stances can also be reversed, replaced, or amended through a voting process outlined in section one of each stance. These stances are not partisan commitments, but represent the interests that should be protected by the party's leader in representing the members.

Northern Ireland

In May of 2011 Eire Aonair passed its official stance on the territory of Northern Ireland in eRepublik. [2] The stance outlines that Northern Ireland is legitimately an original territory of the UK where Ireland is defined as the Republic of Ireland rather than the island. This conclusion is drawn in response to ideas of a United Ireland that come from historical real life history. The stance goes on to say that despite this conclusion, Northern Ireland is still a natural target for Ireland's military since the other two of the nations neighbours are historical allies, and Northern Ireland is a border region with Ireland. This stance supports a strategic view of Northern Ireland rather than a fanatical one.

Democratic Practices

In September of 2011 a new official stance was passed by Eire Aonair outlining the democratic expectations of the party for Ireland. [3] The document supports a discrimination free democracy where loyal citizens are encouraged to vote without being under duress or authoritative instruction. It also makes comments on the ideals of logical debate rather than rhetoric or pure propaganda. In addition, the conditions of party support are outlined stating that, "(the) official political support of Eire Aonair for a political candidate does not represent a guaranteed vote from all of the party's members."

Members

Eire Aonair has been home to many players of various real life and in game backgrounds ranging from anarcho-capitalists to socialists. Dominantly Eire Aonair's members communicate in english and endorse an Irish cultural foundation.

History

Foundation

Eire Aonair's name and symbol (the raven) were inspired by the influences of Eire Aontaithe and its founder Wandering Rian. Eire Aonair was founded on March 17, 2011 by Ian E Coleman. This was after the complete wipe of eIreland in December 2010 that had removed all of eIreland's previous political parties - an event that forced the nation to start over from scratch. Three months after this event, the political scene of eIreland was saturated with new political parties. The high saturation of eIreland's political scene explains the slow growth of the party and much of the continued difficulties that would be faced in the future.

Eire Aonair was originally founded as a freethinking semi-partisan party - a party driven by principles rather than political ideology, that would look for the best ideas from every corner of the political scene. The party would encourage free speech, constructive debate, and smart gameplay. As shown by Eire Aonair's constitution, strong emphasis was placed on the welfare of gamers, encouraging a healthy and supportive community and a balance between gaming and real life.

Bremen Clubhouse

Due to timing, shortly after the foundation of Eire Aonair, the party came under attacks from the Bremen Clubhouse, a group of hostile British political take-over agents. At the time Ireland and the UK were continuing their long and heated war with each other. After falling under the control of hostile efforts, Eire Aonair was able to exist underground for one month. In the following month genuine members were able to regain control. During this same time, all of eIreland was engaged in a strategic Anti-takeover effort to avoid giving congress seats to hostile take-over agents - Eire Aonair played an important role in ensuring the success of these efforts.

Early Efforts

Eire Aonair and its members have headed many breakthrough projects ranging from economic to military matters. The first member to create a project was Stranger Here Myself who developed The Moynihan Group as an economic think tank. Stranger Here Myself's work and ideas would later lead to award winning projects and in-depth economic discussion.

In June of 2011 Eire Aonair's Donnzer worked with the party to develop the The Black Buck Initiative. This initiative was designed to collect military intelligence and was later re-calibrated to collect information and statistics for analysis. [[4]

In late July of 2011 an article published on behalf of Eire Aonair, Eire Aonair Test Run Company Project: A More Efficient Commune, won the award for Article of the Month in June 2011. [5] This project was the collaborative effort of many members and involved active experimentation and economic study to increase the efficiency of military communes. The project concluded that by using a purchased based model (rather than a production version) efficiency could be improved by more than 40%. The new model was the brainchild of EA economist Stranger Here Myself. Sir Adriano Prette ran the practical research and analysis for the project, including the management of the company and the calculations of efficiency comparisons

Also in July 2011, the party took large steps to improve internal communication under the guidance D-Glennon. This coincided with admin changes to ingame communications that allowed for a shout feed and conference private messages. At the same time, through his suggestion Joey Millz initiates the creation of an Eire Aonair Department of Recruitment. The new department aims to help generate interest and gain new members for the party.
