ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST
One week after Latvia packed up its bags and left Veto, USA has decided to follow suit and leave VETO as well. The President of the USA, Liquid HOMICIDE released this article to announce their formal departure from VETO. I urge everyone to check this article out.
For USA, as with Latvia, it did seem for them that this departure has worked in their nations best interests. For USA, their new unspoken alliance with UK and Sweden enabled them to capture CEC with minimal opposition and take advantage of the high Grain area. However, I'm not really sure if this is the case! USA declared war on UK, but was this just to gain the territory, who knows.
USA is certainly a rising power in e-sim! Their recent baby boom has really shown their strength, but the important thing is if their new-comers can stand the test of time and continue in the game. It will certainly take alot of time and effort for the US heirachy to make sure that these new players maintain interest to take full advantage of their progress.
Unfortunately for several countries, this certainly does put them in quite precarious waters. Canada and Ireland, which are smack bang in the middle of USA and UK, and also Mexico to the south of US. Unfortunately for Canada, they received the raw end of the deal. USA leaving VETO means that their original arrangement of 'renting' out CEC to Canada is null and void.
Although I definitely respect USA's decision to leave, I must really question one of USA's comments in regards to their leaving VETO. As all countries understand, being a part of an alliance means sacrifice sometimes and priorities.
It was only 1 month ago that USA had only 1 territory, and so did Canada. Being part of the VETO alliance enabled USA to gain all but 2 territories back (which they had a NAP with Russia). It seems like the USA has forgotten about the coordinated attacks that took place 1 month ago which made certain countries divide their attacks when Australia, Canada, and USA all regained their territories at the same time. But it seems that for USA, their view of the VETO alliance is summed up perfectly by the infamous words of Eddie Murphy
Just two quick comments about liquid homicides article
You can claim our inactivity all you want to, but don't deny how many times we showed up for Australia and France.
I don't think anyone can deny this at all. I think that the US was a fantastic contributor in every single war that was done for VETO. I think that USA will be an asset to any alliance they are in
You can claim our non-participation all you want to, but don't deny your meetings were set up so that it was fairly impossible for us to participate, due to our timezone difference.
This is one thing that I unfortunately have to disagree with. It is true, the meetings were definitely held at an inconvenient time, but that being said, USA is in the same timezone as Canada and Mexico and we still managed to get most MU leaders and major members from each community from these nations along to these meetings.
In any case, we wish USA the best, and we look forward to standing beside you guys in war, but also looking forward to when the time comes that we all face off against each other.

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.
It's 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.
