After 12 and a half years of playing on this server, I got a little nostalgic, so I took a look back at the beginnings of this server.
I've been playing this server, Suna, since day one. I started as
Lavlja banana , who was banned after 282 days. For a reason. The next day I opened a profile called 
Zvonimir Drugi . That profile was banned again after 33 days. And again for a reason. Since then, since day 327, I've been playing on this profile, which, with some problems, was mostly active.
And now a few reminders about Malawi until Suna's reset and few first months after reset.
In November 2013,
Tambuu was elected as the first CP of Malawi with 158 votes, and Grgic was elected as the second in December 2013 with 81 votes. 
Veles had 47 votes, and 
karli00 had 15 votes. A total of 143 Malawians voted. At that time, there were 15,000 players on Suna. Only 1% were in Malawi. In the January 2014 elections, 95 Malawians voted, of which 57 for 
Zeta1950 and 38 for 
jozooo . In February, the number of voters dropped to 92, and among the 4 candidates, Zeta1950 won again with 47 votes. In March, as the only candidate, Veles won with 74 votes. Shortly after, I – still as a Lavlja banana – moved from powerful Madagascar to weak and mostly occupied Malawi. In the April 2014 elections, 70 Malawians voted, and the CP became 
Lovre1996 with 49 votes.
Then, in May 2014, along with three other candidates, I ran for the CP for the first time and won very narrowly. I had 27 votes, and my dear friend
Robija had 24. A total of 67 Malawians voted. Less and less every month. On that day, Malawi was completely occupied by Madagascar, ruled by the Turks, all quite serious and strong players (
Tsubasa , 
Yudansha 
Felis Leo ),...... They had over 300 players. Within 14 days, we liberated Malawi and even took some colonies. In June 2014, I was the only candidate, and 77 Malawians voted. The first increase since the server started. This continued in July when 85 Malawians voted for me. At the end of July, Lavlja banana was banned, I opened a Zvonimir Drugi profile, and on August 1, 2014, Suna was reset.
That was one of many incomprehensible and wrong decisions. Their intention was to increase the number of players, and they successfully reduced it. Halved it in 24 hours. In the CP elections in August 2014, I (as
Zvonimir Drugi ) was elected with 31 votes. After my profile was banned, in early September, Veles ran for CP and received 56 votes.
Since October 2014, I have been running as CP under this profile and 49 Malawians voted at that time. The same number was in November, while in December it increased to 51. Since the beginning of 2015, the number of players in Malawi, as well as on the entire server, has been slowly but surely falling.
Today, Malawi has only 5 players, and there are about 455 players on the entire server. That's how many of us were in Madagascar in November 2013 alone.
Among those 455 players, 25 are from day 1. (ranked by XP):
1.
blood duster (Croatia),
2.

25.
michal3922 (Poland).
These are the ones in the top 140 by XP. If anyone else has been playing since day one, please let me know in the comments or PM me.
I hope someone has read this. Older players can remember the beginnings, and newer players can see what was once upon a time.
Best wishes to everyone.
Yours

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. Its creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
