E Republik/YMMV

• Alt-Itis: Averted with a vengeance; this is one of a very few ways to get Killed Off for Real, and the most common by far.
  • That being said, you have to (1) get caught and (2) have the admin team ban you. Those two steps can take a very long time to do, and those alts can do massive damage in the mean time. For example, somebody created a ton of alts to rig a party leader election in eThailand. The alts were banned, but the results of the election were not overturned.
• Broken Base: Not everyone was happy with V2. In fact, a massive spike in ragequit left a power vaccum.
• Memetic Mutation
  • "Serbia is Kosovo"
  • "Poland cannot into space ;_;"
    • The origins of this one is contested with Krautchan's /int/, who used it as a running gag on the Polandball comics.
  • "Pertamaxxx!"
  • "Pride! Power! Pakistan!"
  • The Polish baby boom was partly caused by the popularity of a video on YouTube.
  • "Nie mogę ci pomóc, jestem koniem" (I can't help you, I'm a horse) and Poland being called "Horseland".
  • Glove Is Love.
• Never Live It Down: Some countries will never catch a break.
  • Brazil's population boom came from Neopets.
  • Spain put their whole treasury into a company that was for sale for about 30 gold, and was subsequently bought by Hungary.
  • Ireland managing to get its military companies, depot of weapons, and ministry of defence banned in one fell swoop.
  • Iran declared war on Canada...and their President forgot to attack before the Canadians.
  • Russia failed to impeach their banned President.
• They Changed It, Now It Sucks: Recently, the admins released the massively hyped V2. Result? The game's population is now the lowest it has been in years. Great success!
