“ There are coexisting isms in the history of human beings – ‘life is to be sacrificed for the cause’ or ‘life is above everything’. People tend to chant the former when they declare a war, but switch to the latter when they want to bring that war to an end. ” |
Yang Wenli is a citizen of USA, born in New York, USA on August 2, 2009, named after his creator's favorite fictional hero, Admiral Yang Wenli, Commander of the 13th fleet of Free Planets Alliance, from an epic science fiction called "Legends of the Galactic Heroes" (a.k.a. "Ginga Eiyu Densetsu") written by Dr. Yoshiki Tanaka. According to the fiction, although Yang was nicknamed as "Magician Yang", "Miracle Yang", and was undisputedly the best general of the Free Planets Alliance, he's the earliest dream was to become a history professor and live in peace. Ironically, he couldn't afford his tuition because his father died early in an accident so he was left with no choice but to attend a government-funded military academy and later became a military officer.
The Beginning
At the time when Yang Wenli was born, USA was in the turmoil of World War III and lost over 30 states. In his ignorant days as a newbie American, he witnessed the bloody battle of Texas and the fall of Ontario, Canada, an epic battle in eRepublik history.
With his increasing eagerness of serving his country, Yang Wenli studied the game mechanics intensively in the first few days before Level 5 since he could not join any battle directly. Later, Yang Wenli wrote his first article "My First eRepublik Week: from Level 0 to Level 5" and published a beta version of "Yang Wenli's Map & Directory of eUSA" on eUSA forum: eUSforum.com to illustrate the difference between eUSA's region/state connection and USA's in real life, the up-to-date scenario of the war, and to provide a spreadsheet that summarizes all natural resource, infrastructure, and in-game profile of each USA state. Both were positively received by the forum community, and for that, Yang Wenli was nominated as "the best new player of the month".
