The Stats from the Battle for the CEC.
America, We are strong... The USA alone put up an impressive 122,551,031 damage in this battle. Canada only put up 48,929,082. But if we where to look at the total damage we would find that the Attackers (us) put up 166,651,592 total damage. Subtract the US 122,551,031 and that leaves only 44,100,561 damage done by our allies which is 4,828,521 less than what Canada put up on their own.
On the flip side the Defenders (Canada) put up 190,176,975 total damage for a total of 23,525,383 more than the Attackers. Like I said previously, Canada only put up 48,929,082... So that leaves the whopping total of 141,247,893 damage done by her allies and other European nations.
If there was one thing shown yesterday it is that Canada has an enormous amount of allied support and the USA was simply not strong enough to take on this vast combination of armies.
So what happened? Why is it that America, with all its past help for these nations against G7, would find themselves standing virtually alone in combat? Now in no way do I wish to discount the nations that helped us, but frankly there was not enough nations to really make a difference in the outcome of this battle.
I can not honestly say that I was surprised when I saw nearly the entire non G7 community rally behind Canada, nor can I say I expected to win upon seeing this mobilization. But many of my fellow countrymen have asked "why". Why is it that there was such a mobilization for Canada? Well I hope to break it down for you to the best of my understanding of this issue.
Before I close this, there's still been plenty of rumors floating around about who we're aligned with, if we're in an alliance, etc. The answer? We're neutral. Neutral as neutral can be. More importantly, this allows a chance for greater flexibility in choosing our allies. We've made new friends in the Netherlands and Belgium, reconnected with some old ones in Bonkers , and Ireland, and life is good right now. Not bad for less than a month's work, eh?
I promise you this, America. Stick around longer and we'll see just how good it gets! - eUS PresidentLiquid HOMICIDE in his article [LH] Some Updates!
Canada has a very rich history with many of our allies, so its not the same invading us, as invading Mexico! -eCanadian PresidentOwenHargreaves
Please compare the two previous quotes. Now in Liquids defense I wish to remind you of where America was just a few days prior to him writing the mentioned article. Poland had us completely conquered, and left us with little hope of self liberation and NO economy. I understand the Presidents fear of aligning right now, especially with Poland still sitting at our back door. Neutrality had protected us from another Polish takeover, but unfortunately it has also dissipated our previous relations with our friends.
As much as I hate to admit this but the following quote is quite true.
As you all might know, yesterday USA displayed the true meaning of Christmas by declaring war on Canada! Merry Christmas everyone = get a gun! Seems like the NRA is in full force here, even on Christmas! For over 4 months now, Canada and USA's relationship has been abit of a rocky ship. Fact is fact, USA want CEC, and the USA cabinet is always under immense pressure to attack Canada.
Unfortunately for USA though, they were not banking on the epic allies that Canada has created over the last 4 months. While USA has been jumping into bed with pretty much anyone that will accept them (their CP Liquid HOMICIDE calls it "reciprocal allies" or something like that), Canada has been working very hard to take the "balls out approach" while protecting her allies. The result of this has been clear! The clearest example is Sweden! For a while Canada has been going balls out to help Sweden gain freedom from Lithuania, and as a result, Sweden (a long time ally of USA) teamed up with Canada to help protect the maple syrup!
Look, lets be clear here. USA has ALWAYS been the aggressor in the whole Canada/USA issue. Canada has not once in my 300+ days of playing primera have Canada attacked USA. Since Canada helped free USA from Russia over 10 months ago, Canada has been rather neutral in regards to USA. But all this seems to have changed!
For the first time ever, Canada has decided to attack USA. -ouzobat Project Maple Syrup Complete!
I believe that America has a unique position in the eWorld. We not only posses a rather strong military, but we also are made up of a strong people of, character, strength and perseverance. There isn't a single alliance out there that wouldn't love to see the US on their membership board, we can add a great amount of power to any alliance of our choosing.
I think if you look at the whole scope of things, the non G7 community is in a fight for their lives! North America is the one region that can completely turn the tide of any battle. Why? Because we are at our peak when the rest of the world sleeps! Our attacking Canada threatened to remove that asset from the non G7 alliances, an advantage that the US could greatly contribute to.
Now am I saying we need to go all out against G7... I'm not sure, but one thing I am sure about is that if you sit on the fence, dogs from both sides will try to bite you.
Thanks for your time.
Neutrality is a negative word. It does not express what America ought to feel. We are not trying to keep out of trouble; we are trying to preserve the foundations on which peace may be rebuilt. -President Woodrow Wilson.

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.
