在读过了前面那些不同时代和地区的古代文明社会的糟糕生活方式之后，大家恐怕都已经对穿越到古代产生了强烈的畏惧，觉得古代人的生活真是太可怕了，我们身娇肉贵的现代人实在是吃不消。
所以，与其穿越到难以适应的古代，追寻什么虚无缥缈的梦想，结果一事无成就死在了那边，还不如把穿越的年代选择得靠后一些，距离我们现在的世界更近一些。
嗯，聊QQ上网打游戏什么的是不奢望了，但最起码也要不那么讲究迷信，观念习俗之类得要与当今世界类似，还要有电灯、自来水、卫生纸和抽水马桶可用。
然而，在中国的历史上，想要达成上述这些目标，我们似乎就只能穿越到近代之后了。
按照我们中国历史教科书上的划分方法，近代开始于1840年的鸦片战争。而在这之后的170多年历史时间段，基本上可以划分为清末、民国和新中国三个组成部分。
如果穿越到清末的话，首先是时间稍微嫌早了一点，很多现代化的生活方式不是还没有发明，就是尚未传入中国。其次是男同胞们就需要剃发留辫子，感觉像是多了根猪尾巴，实在是太难看也太屈辱。女同胞们倒是问题不大，要是有办法“抬籍入旗”，更是连裹脚都可以免了（清朝的旗人女子不裹脚）。
所以，在当今的网文界之中，穿越清朝这一题材的小说虽然很多，却因为作者性别的不同，而在内容上呈现出两极分化的态势——写穿越清朝的女作家，总是落墨于宫斗、宅斗和家族恩怨，沉迷于格格阿哥、公子小姐们之间的爱恨情仇，最多宣扬一点进步思想（往往很可笑），很少有描写如何推翻这个王朝的。
（题外话：最近在网上看到一本女作家写穿越清朝八旗贵族之家玩宅斗的新作，刚刚开了个头，内容中规中矩，没什么新意也没什么纰漏，无非就是《红楼梦》和《还珠格格》的复合体，再加上若干网络词汇。但女主角穿越的时间点，却真是让人不知该说什么才好——宣统二年，也就是1910年！
只要再过一年，清朝就没了，这位具有先进意识的女主角，不想着如何劝说家里人去租界拉关系当寓公避祸，却还在为一点鸡毛蒜皮的事情怄气，真不知脑子里是怎么想的！）
而绝大多数写穿越清朝的男作家，由于打心眼里厌恶这根辫子，却总是着眼于天下争霸，征战杀伐，并且杀气腾腾地叫嚣着“穿清不造反，屁股套电钻”！除非是穿越到了清朝最强盛的时间段，或者附身到了八旗贵族，实在是没办法合理地竖起反旗，否则总是琢磨着怎么造反，最起码也要把头上的辫子给剪了。
鉴于上述缺陷和分歧，穿越清末的话题在这里暂且不作考虑。
如果是穿越到建国初期，似乎只能体会到热火朝天的革命激情，精神生活上缺乏自由和多样性，物质生活方面也实在是很贫乏，再加上一次次的运动和批判，恐怕会让好逸恶劳的当代网民们感到有些畏缩。
至于穿越到改革开放之后……那已经不是历史架空类幻想小说，而是现代都市类文学作品的范畴了！
如此看来，剩下一项穿越到清朝灭亡之后，新中国建立之前的民国年代，似乎就是最轻松的选择了？
既然如此，就让我们浮光掠影地到民国时代去走上一遭，看看那个时代的风貌吧！

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.
