As this will be my final address to the nation as CP this term, I would like to thank everyone who supported me over the 2.5 weeks I have been in office after the whole impeachment affair.
To begin, I will first talk about Australian Org, due to lack of resources in Australia (i.e. no SA or NSW); this has been a mammoth task to keep this afloat. Right now there is more gold in their then when I first took office. Originally I was planning to make a long term investment with guns with Vic but as Argentina took Victoria this was no longer attainable.
Thanks to
Masterilke , we played the money market a little and managed to get raise some capital for food investment in NT. We chose this location so we could supply jobs in Australia, as at the time there was none on the job market that night, another consideration was tax revenue to the Australian Treasury.
This wasn’t a high profit enterprise as we don’t have grain, or capital of Australia, but with the state of the economy and lack of resources coming into office it was too costly to set up foreign investment while trying to have a presence in the Australian economy.
I would personally like to thank
Masterilke for his advice and personal contributions towards helping the Australian economy and running Australia Org with 
Veldrin and myself. Cheers Mate
To this end, Australian org is in a better position than when I came in, but it hasn’t been easy with no revenue due to lack of territories.
Next I would like to talk about our country’s Defence situation.
Coming into power, Argentina already had NSW and SA, and Australia Org was let’s just say, not strong. The DoD had some supplies left in it from the past governments which were passed onto the ADF.
Originally I planned to get supplies and do co-ordinated attacks with VETO, which takes time to gather supplies that will last a few battles rather than just 1, then lose it 12 hours later. However after only having Australia Org and Department of Defence for just over 1 day, and repeatedly telling
brutas33 not to start a RW till we were ready, he started one.
Argentina CP who hates
brutas33 took Victoria as punishment as we hadn’t had time to prepare for their counter; our medium Iron and any form of tax revenue from that state was lost. This didn’t help my cause trying to strengthen Australia Org etc with supplies. Any action taken against Argentina needs to be planned for the long term, not for 1 battle.
Another front, on which I will admit the government failed, was our MoD
Lion ElJonson , due to university commitments couldn’t be around, when I asked him to be my MoD and placed him in my cabinet, I assumed he would be online once in a while to at least prepare some plans as this was his area of expertise. I don’t blame him for this I understand real life comes first; I just wish he would have informed us first. All good Lion ElJonson no love loss here and good luck on your exams etc.
Finally, the other day a resistance war was started, to which we told people not to hit or we would lose another region. A few however decided to hit hard turning Argentina’s 7-2 lead into a needlessly close 8-7 win for Argentina thus pissing off the Argentina CP again who decided to take NT as punishment. Again we are in no position to stop them.
If players take these kinds of actions, acting alone rather than in unity with the government, Australia will keep being weak. I understand people want Australia back, but this is a timely issue that can’t be done overnight, and by taking these actions you make it that much harder for those who are trying to plan for the retake.
Once I realised I couldn’t rely on
Lion ElJonson and saw VETO being friends with TM, I contacted the Slovenian MoFA and negotiated a MPP with them, in an attempt to befriend TM. This proved fortuitous however as not long after VETO was disbanded.
With the setback of VETO being disbanded, I decided after talking with my cabinet of
Archduchess Diablo I and Veldrin , our options were to see if a new alliance would be formed and/or open more doorways with TM. I couldn’t just sit around and wait to see if a new alliance would work and so I made another 2 MPPs with Iran and Poland, both TM countries. We have also created a MPP with Ireland because we love the Irish and we get along with them well in IRC. DRINK UP BOYS!!
In Summary, during my term, I have managed to get more gold into Australia Org, and also create 4 new MPPs, 3 with TM countries to get our foot in the door, and supported VETO previously. I am interested to see if this new alliance with some ex-VETO countries will get off the ground and be a power player to which Australia could also be a part of. At the end of the day it’s just Alpha versus the world pretty much, anyone who hate Alpha is a friend of Australia.
As this was my first term as CP ever and I had only been playing the game for about a month when I took office, taking on this position has given me a greater understanding of the game and how Australia works. If I ever run again at least I know what I’ll be doing next time!!
On that note, I would like to thank the following people for their ongoing advice and support during my brief term in office. We were dealt a bad hand coming into office and I think we did ok considering, as Australia now has some sense of direction of where it wants to go and how we get.
Veldrin my Vice CP, for his ongoing support, insight into the game also being a long term player, his auditing skills and helping me run the MOF, all those early morning investment discussions giving Australia Org some direction and plan. Thank you so much brother.
Archduchess Diablo I for all her advice regarding VETO, alliances and military strategies in this game, thank you for your support to a noob player who was a freshman in this game
Roxiux , our MoE man who has done a great job with new player guides, however I’m still waiting for the one about Irish beer!!
Masterilke with solid game insight and professional advice, filling in the blanks to things I didn’t know about the game. You bloody legend!
Luis Ariel Zavarella what the hell, for his kind 11g donation to Australia Org for CS and being annoying but full of advice on IRC
With all that being said, I hope the next government, whomever it maybe, will continue to work with these TM countries and also support any possible alliance to which Australia may be a part of forming.
Good luck all candidates and good night Australia!!
Signing off as CP for the very last time –

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.
