My fellow Americans,
After meeting with key supporters, and reading the letters of encouragement from friends, I have decided to seek the office of President of the United States!
I have been playing this game for over 3 years, and I have seen what this eNation has gone through, and see what it is today.
From our early days of near total occupation from Russia, to our wars and struggles against Poland, to our more recent wars with China and the Philippines, we have remained a determined and resilient people.
We have built one of the strongest economies in the game, and have one of the lowest tax rates of any major nation.
Though we are small in numbers, we show ourselves valuable on the battle field, and unwavering in our defenses.
Our little nation has proven itself worthy of world recognition in the past, but sadly I have watched as our influence has faded away due to in fighting and near chaos.
I'm really not interested in hearing anymore about why the infighting is going on, for I have already heard both sides of the story. I am here to remind you of who we are, and what we should be. And if we can not find unity, we will find destruction.
We as a nation possess two of the most valuable raw resource producing regions in the world... We already produce far more than several larger nations such as Serbia, Italy and Lithuania. But, because I "Believe in America" I know we can attract even MORE business and productivity to our nation. Hence strengthening the financial influence the United States has on the world market.
As a member of Congress for nearly two years, I helped craft and debate our current economic policies with some of the most respected leaders in our nation. I am certain once we re-open this topic we will be able to find even more unique ways to bolster our economy.
As our market grows, our revenue will grow, and as our revenue grows we will find ourselves with a stronger National Defense. With the Department of Defense being the primary item in the budget, the more we have to spend, the more supplies we will have to defend ourselves and our allies.
Though I would like to renew the patriotism of Americans for their Country, I also want other nations to "Believe in America".
Never should the world be forced to question where our loyalties are. Never should a US ally experience a battle without seeing "Old Glory" represented on their side of the battlefield.
Never should an ally of the United States be left to question how they will be able to defend themselves. Under my Presidency, America WILL be there, and the world WILL know you CAN "Believe in America"!
I Believe in America, and I hope you do too. Will you join me as we go about spreading the eAmerican Promise of Strength, Prosperity, and Loyalty?

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.
