An update from your newly elected Congressman and Secretary of the Interior.
AS OF NOW WEST POINT MU IS STILL BEING DISCUSSED.
This week has been a little hectic. With the elections and becoming a Congressman I have been busy. Within the first 30 minutes of becoming a member of Congress I had posted a proposal that will create a new Military Unit for noobs. It is code named West Point for now and you may hear about it from some others later on. What it basically accomplishes is two things: the first objective is to get new players oriented with the layout of a Military Unit and how they function and the second objective is to train these new players to become prosperous citizens of the eUSA.
How does it accomplish this you may ask? The first step is to introduce an entire class of citizens all at once into the Military Unit. From day one they will be told to get to know one another and find out who they are going to be playing with over the course of the next week. Over the course of the week we will be sending out training documents to all of our players giving them detailed descriptions on how the economy, battles, and politics in the game work.
At the end of their training intensive week each player will be given a diploma from West Point United States Military Academy and will be a fully fledged graduate of said facility. We hope this academy will function not only as a sort of starting zone for new players but will help encourage our new players to become active within the community. Once players graduate they will be messaged periodically asking about their adventures in the game.
The cost of joining West Point is $15. While this may sound like a lot from a new player, there are many options as far as financial aid goes. Our first and most obvious option is to pay up front, the $15 charge. The second option is to pay at the end of the week before graduation. The charge will still remain $15 and will be contracted to ensure payment. The final option is to take up to no more than 1 month of an $18 debt.
Other updates with Congress this week: We are currently in the process of nominating a new Speaker of the House. The current nominees are
DannyCrowley (incumbent) and 
Lilith of Apollyon . We are also discussing a budget for each of the departments of the executive branch but are working on getting estimates for expenditures from all of the departments.
If you have any questions about West Point, or any questions about any other congress related matters feel free to ask in the comment box or message me in game.
Sincerely,

Secretary of the Interior

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.
