Leitnants .-Can you tell us a little about yourself outside of the virtual world?
As many have realize after having a contact with me via skype, my name is Artūrs. Till adulthood is about half year left. I live in Latvian, Jurmala, thewestern-Kauguri. Currently, I am still learning at Jurmalas National High School, grade 11. So to say i relax more than I study, although i can’t complain about my marks. I don’t do active some certain sport, but I visit the gym, something has to be done.
-So you are a secondary school student. What is your goal, which will you intend to pursue after high school graduation?
Have not really decided yet. I've been thinking about abroad but something draws me away from that thought. I don’t know if it's patriotism, or an unwillingness to get into another culture, but now it seems more realistic to move on in the direction which leads in Latvian. Most likely, that i wont stop learning after the secondary education, but I will continue learning at a university. In what kind of profession? Again hard to say. Best success in school is directly in the history and politics, but I doubt that I will go on the policy side. Maybe someone thinks that it's ridiculous to be self-confident, but one of my goals is to be the best at what I do. I don’t like to be mediocrity in the things that i do, i want to be the first and the best.
-How exactly did you start to play in the community of e-Sim?
About E-Sim learned from the spam @ eRepublik. The Spamer was my current companion,
Lazdas . I checked it at the beginning of the game, the 3 day, but quickly decided that the game has no future, so stopped playing. I made a mistake. I came back around the 30. day after another wave of spam in eRep. Up until now, I can’t forgive myself, that I resumed it to play so late.
-Why did you think that the game has no future?
Somehow it didn’t attract me. Maybe the design was to blame, maybe that was too accustomed to eRepublik and didn’t want to learn something new. By nature I am quite lazy, so I assume the possibility that I quited the game because of reluctance to thoroughly acquainted with the new.
-Maybe there are any developments in the e-sim about which you are particularly proud?
First of all i have to mention the participation in Basterds. It is not only a MU, it's like a family, we are few, but between us is quite friendly relationships. I was once offered a place BAY Jr., replied without a thought. Not just because their avatar is funny, but also because I know that in BAY Jr.. I will never be in such good relations as i am with members of the Bastards. What else can I show off with? Recently, pursuing Achievements in E-Sim. Even if they don’t give any consideration, I like to set goals and enjoy the achievement.
-Currently SiLatvia is fully occupied. What should we do to change it?
To understand what we want. In SILV currently are several groups that wish to implement their wishes needs. Sometimes those desires coincide with the interests of SILV, but sometimes don’t match. From that point arises the conflict.First, we should get rid of the radical syndromes that we have. Some believe that we are perpetually siLithuanian servants and we must also remain.Also the opposite view, that we are a large, powerful and cool,that we can alone get our land back, there are too many people that agree to it. I, personally, am tired of overlooking the fact that SILV is scorn internationally. One day a Veto member, on theother with Musketeers, where is the stability? How it can be fixed? Finally need to start to realize that a strong siLatvia is our common interest. Who resume to understand it - goodbye. Hopeless cases. Who wants to take care of them?
-What is it that makes you to return each day here, despite the fact that, as you mentioned it, sometimes you get tired of overlooking of what is going on?
Fun. Entertainment. If I wouldn’t find pleasure in this game, I would have been gone away.I like to talk to foreigners, not only about the game, but also about life,about different cultures, about interesting things. It is not so, that I’m playing just for fun. From E-Sim I also optimized the skills that are useful in RL life. For example, almost every day writing in English, it improves my English skills. Also, the world's understanding of maps has improved, I find no difficulty in in finding Belgrade. :3
-For a long time playing this game probably you have remained in the memory a lot of different people. Perhaps there are people that you want to mention, in a good or not so good sense?
It is not so that I can judge people just from the way how they play. Here you can become anything, in complete contrast to his life in RL. A good example is RARA party in eRepublik. In the game they are the far-left ones, as far as total nonsense. But I know that many of them are truly patriots of Latvian ,those who never discourage the extreme left-side policies.I haven’t still met players of e-Sim in life, and therefore difficult to assess what they are. Best know the members of Bastards, each of whom is an interesting man with his character.
-Which would you take as a wife:
Azartiskas or 
dr love ? 
Uh. No one, i doubt that any of them is a woman. I'm sorry, but I like long-legged creatures. With
dr love contact has been minimal, it can be said even that there was any. Azartiskas is a little more know-interesting person, maybe sometimes he takes too impulsive decisions. But so are those Lithuanians, compared to us, they are more hot-blooded.
-Then which of our e-Sim "long legged" creatures you sympathize?
Once there was an article in E-Sim for girls, and there was a really sexy brunette from Serbia.For me better goes to the heart brunettes than Blondie's or redheaded, but this is, in general. Hair color does not determine what kinde of a person it will be. From E-Sim Latvians know only
Annuciite and puuu . I doubt whether I could endure the Puu overbearing behavior, Annuciite therefore seems much more pleasant.
-Hehe,if you had the opportunity to BAN a player for life, who would it be?
I am happy for every siLatvian who plays this game, although there are few who are getting on my nerves, such as
Imperators Valis . If I had such an opportunity, I would ban the player who really has bots. It would be fairest.
-Hesburger or McDonald?
McD. I am a very principled man. To convince me of something new is not so simple. So more goes to the heart McDonald, which has proven the value.Not so often visited there, toconsider myself an expert on fast food,but at McD. food is tastier.:>
-Well, i wount torture you anymore. : D Finally, maybe there is something you want to tell our readers ...?!
First of all, thank you, that you didn’t ask a lot of questions about this policy in e-Sim, I have enough screamed about it. What could i suggest players of e-Sim? Let’s live friendly! One country, one land, one language- but argue as the worst enemys..
P.S Soon we will be able to read an interview with on of the beautiful latvian girls-

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.
