Music for my American soldiers!
Alright, it's been a few days since my last article, so of course, there's plenty to discuss. Our growing damage numbers? Check. Our ability to start pulling some of our two clickers back into the metagame? Check. A little more communication? Well, okay, I could be doing that better.
I'm sure you've all noticed the new MPP, with Argentina. They're our neighbors to the south, a smaller country, but quite enthusiastic. I also know that some of you raised concerns about their allegiance to ALPHA, questioning whether or not we're changing our own allegiances. To this, I answer no. We are a neutral country, able to pick and choose our friends. Our allegiance remains first and foremost with our most trusted allies and to ourselves, at this time.
Some of you have raised concerns about the UK being a pro-ALPHA country as well, but to this I reply: No. They're not. They're as neutral as we are, and in the same boat, looking for new friends and allies.
It has always been my policy to hear each nation that approaches us out, and the same for when we approach them, in order to better understand their concerns and needs.
More importantly, I feel that as Americans, regardless of whether or not we live in the North or South continents, we should get along, and this is a step towards that goal.
As always, I'm always available to answer questions and concerns from diplomats and our citizens both.
In world news, the Swedes continue their push towards Lithuania, after a close win in Kurzeme last night. As of this article, the battle in Lithuania Minor looks to be lost. As usual, we continue our support of our Swedish bros in their endeavors.
In other news, Argentina has renewed their campaign against Australia, a fight that has been ping-ponging back and forth for quite a few months now. This observer wonders how much longer the French can continue to cover this war and the RWs that consistently pop up in their conquered territories in the Netherlands.
Meanwhile, Poland continues their campaign against Lithuania, holding a current 5 round lead on the Lithuanians, as of this posting.
The Croatians and Hungarians have also continued warring, with the Croatians holding a 3-0 lead in Central Croatia as of this posting.
We'd also like to thank the Canadians for the free training war for our newbies the other night. It was very considerate of them to spend their gold to keep our babies busy.
Thanks, guys!
As I'm sure that everyone can tell from the myriad shouts clogging the box lately, Congressionals are under way once more.
In the spirit of this chaotic time, I offer this solid advice; be careful who you vote for. Many times, the most active shoutbox spammers only do so during congressional elections. Instead, inform yourself on what each candidate has done in this game and also what they potentially bring to the table. I know the temptation to vote for your friends and buddies is always there, but let me be frank. Do you really want people in congress who are only there to either screw around, or take the gold and run? I don't.
If a candidate can't be asked to offer a solid presentation, even if it's only based on lulz, then they obviously can't offer the time to do the job responsibly either.
I wish the candidates luck, and I hope that this month offers a term less full of headaches.
We're a growing power, and our congress should reflect our ability to work together to solve our mutual problems as a nation, not for personal vendettas, not for singling out any individuals, especially ones who have actively donated their time, gold and energy to helping shape the USA into the burgeoning power it can be.
Signing off!
As a post script, I wanted to thank my readers for getting me my 2nd Media Mogul. Thanks, guys!

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.
