Raw Materials industries available in V1
Published on July 25, 2008
Dear Citizens,
Following the good response that we have received regarding the API idea we have created a wiki article where you can find more details about the external application system. What we can say for the moment is that a lot of new modules and features will be created outside of Erepublik but stay connected with it.
In v1 we will also have available new economical domains and most important of all will be the introduction of raw materials. Labor and raw materials will be needed in order to create final products like food, weapons and so on. For example, if you are the manager of a hospital company, you will also need to buy stone from the marketplace. Citizens will be able to create specific companies in order to extract the raw materials with the help of their workers.
Kaleb wrote an interesting article about the skills available in v1 providing more info and some tips.
Community coverage:
- A tutorial needs to be done in a fun way. Josef thought about this and started creating a comic tutorial. He also offered a bonus for his readers. In Portugal, DomiBoss wrote the manual of war for his fellow Citizens.
- el de antes de el celebrated 200 articles in Se Lo Que Hicisteis (SLQH). Congratulations to him and hope this will motivate other newspaper owners to reach and outrun his performance.
- The 250th day in the New World is approaching fast (this Sunday). Special goodies will be available that day in Erepublik.

Large sets of XMLs (Extensible Markup Language) like the latest news or the war coverage, will also be available in order to help others create this kind of widgets.

The Erepublik application programming interface (API) is a set of functions (or procedures) that we will provide, in order to support requests made by other computer programs.

Inflation in Erepublik
Published on July 11, 2008
Inflation represents the rise in the general level of prices of goods in Erepublik over time. Inflation can be thought as a decrease in the value of the unit of currency and it is believed that high rates of inflation are caused by high rates of growth of the money supply.
We have introduced the inflation rate system in Erepublik, which will help Presidents to have another tool to use when they decide the tax rates in a country. The inflation rate is daily updated and you can find it in the economy section of each country page. It is calculated based on the rise in prices of all goods sold from the marketplace during the last seven days.
Here are the inflation rates for all countries in Erepublik for the last seven days.

- Another Erepublik community meeting, this time in Constanta, Romania will take place tomorrow at 17:00 local time. Three team members (George, Cristi and Geo), will have the chance to meet Shoby, the President of Romania and other Erepublik Citizens from that region.

Coverage of the latest events in Erepublik
Published on July 1, 2008
Dear Citizens,
Last week we had a good time reading stats about country's populations and growth rates made by gR3Ed. Interesting to see that the population in all the Erepublik countries had at least a 30% growth in the last month.
One of the features in v1 is that all countries (and citizens, organizations, parties, companies) will be linked to their wiki pages. There, citizens will be able to read about the history of the Erepublik countries. You are, of course, welcomed to complete and edit those history pages.
As you may know, last week we had some issues with hacking attempts on the admin account. The situation is now under control. Sadly, these events consumed time and resources from our team. As a result instead of working for V1, some of us had to track down and solve those glitches. We just worked extra and now we are back on schedule and full speed towards the next version.
Another Erepublik meeting, this time it is in Bilbao and it will take place on the 16th of August. As we have stated before, we encourage Citizens to organize this kind of events and we always try to help if we can. For more details, you can contact Taguaro or read a complete coverage in Agora. If you wish to organize an event in your city, please let us know.
The first set of statistics about the city's population in Erepublik was presented by Astromaniac in his newspaper Vere Mundus. In his latest articles, the top three cities in Erepublik (regarding the number of inhabitants) were presented:
The 8th General Elections in Erepublik are taking place today. Please remember that Citizens who moved from one country to another in the last 10 days are not able to vote in these elections. Good luck to all competitors and tomorrow we will be back with a full update of the new Presidents.
Thank you for your support.
