WHITE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE
DAY 234 - APRIL 26, 2012
****
Duty, Honor, Country: West Point
Tired of the old, traditional Ivy League schools? Want to get your education in something worthwhile?
Well, you’re screwed. At least in real life.
But here in the sUS, check out the West Point military academy! West Point, headed by devoted Commanding Officer
8675309 , is a military unit where people can spend a week learning the basics of war, fighting, and working as a team – all important skills for your eSim career. Some of the most experienced military scholars in the country will help you become integrated with the ins and outs of the game, and prepare you for joining the nation’s elite units. Two days worth of newb salary (15 USD) is all the tuition you need; if you need financial aid, please see the Deportation Office to be transferred to our sChina base. Apply at the link above!
We’ve been allies with sCanada for a while. We’ve got nothing against the Canadian people or their culture (except the Raptors – I mean, come on, no one likes them). But we’ve got a problem with their president,
libertines .
When we took Canada East Coast from the sUK a few days ago, we did so with the good intention of actually paying Canada for taking their original region. But instead of being cordial and working out a deal, President libertines became rude and unjust about the entire thing – to the point of risking our national security by maligning us as supportive of certain allies but not others. The fact is, we wanted to compensate Canada for using their region, and we’ve been as supportive as anyone can possibly be of VETO countries (which libertines says we leave in dust) as well as non-VETO countries. President libertines has twisted the facts and risked our international standing – all because he wouldn’t let us pay his nation a fair price for a region. You can read a full summary of the situation here , in an article by Chief of Staff
Lord of the Blings .
We are grossly offended by President libertines’ actions, and we will not tolerate his treatment of us. Therefore, consider our relations with sCanada unfriendly for the time being. We want to be allies with our northern neighbors, but their president has made this impossible for now. We are more than open to peaceful negotiations – as long as President libertines is not involved, and certainly as long as the tone of discussion is not threatening and unfriendly, as their president has acted in the recent past.
Let us also reaffirm that even though we are not currently part of an alliance, our personal duonational alliances are just as strong as before and will not waver on our end. Whether you are in ALPHA, TM, or VETO, if you’re our friend, we’ll stand behind you 100%, as long as you stand behind us with the same vigor. That is how allies treat each other, that’s how we’ve always acted, and that is how the sAmericans will continue to act.
Signing off,
Mark Michaelson
Secretary of Media
Liquid HOMICIDE
President of the sUnited States

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. 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.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
