=== Alliances ===
+

Recent history has seen a great deal of change.  The United Kingdom  was once a member of the [[File:Flag-ATLANTIS.jpg|20px]] [[ATLANTIS]] alliance but adopted a policy of neutrality following the organization's dissolution, initiating a period characterized by extremely low relations with it's former allies such as the [[USA]] and [[Sweden]]. As a consequence the UK eventually joined [[File:PEACE-Seal.png|20px]] [[PEACE|PEACE Global Community]] in a memorable episode of political turmoil prior to the [[PEACE Invasion of North America]], a controversial move as PEACE and ATLANTIS were traditionally enemies. The United Kingdom left PEACE in November 2009 after many key allies had also left. The United Kingdom became a member of the [[File:Icon-Phoenix.png|20px]] [[Phoenix]] Alliance, the successor of PEACE, on December 06, 2009. On the 24th of February 2011, the United Kingdom left Phoenix and joined [[File:Terra.png|20px]][[Terra]] but left on April 25th 2011, due to dissagreements with other member nations mostly over their treatment within the alliance and foreign policy.
+

+
−
After leaving Terra the United Kingdom tried to maintain the [[Strasbourg Treaty]] and for a time succeeded. However with the changing political climate and growing ever-closer to [[Order of New EWorld|ONE]] nations the treaty became a [[NAP| Non-Agression Pact]] despite both [[France]] and [[Germany]] remaining Terra members. It was eventually disolved (neither side will agree on the reasons), and currently the [[United Kingdom]] is at war with all of their former Terra allies.
+

The UK joined ONE in December as a full member nation of the alliance, having been pro-ONE for most of the year. When ONE reformed after a long ajustment period the UK entered into [[TWO]] as a founding member.

=== Trade ===

−
The United Kingdom occasionally blocks trade with enemy nations. Due to poor diplomatic relations, frequent targets include {{CountryLink|Ireland}} and {{CountryLink|USA}}. For example, in June 2011 [[Greece]] and [[Croatia]] were both embargoed by [[Jamesw]] following their support of [[Ireland]] during the UK's invasion. During the months of December and January, [[Thomas765]] and [[Kravenn]] began embargoing EDEN nations that dumped products on the UK market. France became a target of this by Kravenn's term as CP and the French were consequently embargoed for 11 months.

Geography

The United Kingdom (commonly known as the UK) is a twelve region nation bordering eight other states, this unusually large number of borders historically made the UK a key strategic crossroads between Europe and North America.

The resource distribution has left the eUK with a regular Weapons bonus of 60% and a food bonus of 40%.

The presence of Oil has seen the UK become a regular sparring partner with Canada who seeks to grab that resource for itself whenever the UK finds itself distracted by an invasion from a larger nation or during its periodic wars with Ireland or occasional raids from France.

The UK has been part of many military alliances, recently becoming part of the SIRIUS military alliance as approved by a national referendum in July 2014.


Due to current occupation of neighboring nations the eUK is currently bordered by Poland, Chile, Germany in place of Netherlands, Belgium, France & Denmark
