这个四处劫掠的民族从一定程度上导致了赫梯帝国的解体,他们又被后来的史学家称为吕底亚人。 这块土地是丰饶的,这里的居民充分利用上天的厚赐开发了各种矿藏。其中最重要的是银金矿,一种金和银混合的矿物,当地人用这种"白色的金子"制成了世界上最早的钱币。货币的发明导致贸易的繁荣,吕底亚王国富强一时,尤其是前612年亚述灭亡之后。英语中说"像克罗索斯一样富有"(rich as Croesus),这位国王在位时,是王国的全盛时期。征服了希腊在小亚细亚的所有城市。
整支部队分成八个分队(créme de la créme),每队两百人,国王的卫队有四百人。分队编有四个小队(tetrarchia),各有49人。分队的指挥官叫ilearch,小队的指挥官叫tetrarch。 为什么会有49这么古怪的数字,很简单:站队的时候小队长在最前面,后排三个骑兵,再后排五个,以此类推,最后一排十三个,整个小队就是49人。
他的儿子“矮子”丕平(Pepin the Short)在751年篡位,建立起加洛林王朝。其子查理曼一世(Charlemagne)更是家系中最杰出的征服者:774年战胜意大利北部的伦巴底人,自封为伦巴底国王;消灭阿瓦尔人的国度,占领大半个匈牙利;打跑萨克逊—日尔曼联军,为今后的德意志定下了版图。他将差不多整个西欧和中欧置于法兰克王国的统治下,800年,教皇利奥三世为他举行加冕称帝仪式。仿佛亚平宁半岛曾经的荣耀又开始闪光,与会者高呼:“生命和胜利,永远属于伟大上帝的受冕者,罗马人的皇帝查理·奥古斯都!”
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.
"E-Sim is one of the most unique browser games out there"
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.
