Liquid HOMICIDE Alliances
There has been a lot of talk of alliances in eSim, as always. However the to and fro, the addition and subtraction, the dominance and the dominated have gotten a bit muddled in the past few days. As it is important that Americans know our fellow Sigma members, and the difference between them and The Musketeers, Nexus, or Alpha countries, the WHPR is providing a short segment on the alliances and their relation to the USA.
Sigma
The most important alliance to the everyday American is Sigma. These are our bros, and consist of USA, Sweden, UK, Spain and Ireland. Remember our war with Portugal? The entire purpose of the war is to prevent Portugal from invading Ireland and through extension the UK.
Alpha
Our current arch-enemy in the world is Alpha. Many Alpha members would like to claim that this makes Sigma a “mini TM” but in reality if Alpha would just back the hell off they wouldn’t find themselves fighting us so much. The members of Alpha are Lithuania Bulgaria Romania Indonesia Brazil Argentina Italy Hungary Netherlands Portugal Macedonia Turkey and Russia. With any luck the beating they are receiving will convince them that maybe they can't be the bullies they always desired. We predict the coming fall of Alpha, but what will fill the power vacuum remains to be seen.
‘
The Musketeers
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. While Sigma isn’t subservient to ™ we do engage in coordination when necessary. The main reasoning behind this is that they too are constantly at war with Alpha nations and thus have a common enemy. We have an MPP with many nations of ™ but they come secondary to our bros in Sigma. The members of TM are China Greece Serbia Croatia Slovenia Bosnia Ukraine Germany Israel Iran and Canada.
Nexus
Nexus is an odd bunch of bros and weaker countries who attempt to support each other. Comprising of only four members we normally deal with Nexus as individual countries and not as an entire alliance. The members of Nexus are France, Finland, India, and Switzerland.
Media Wrap-Up
What is the Media Wrap-Up? This is a sort of hiatus from the usual government media, bringing
you a concise summary of a few of our latest eUSA redactors. The concept was created to shed light on our brave, fellow US citizens who decided to start a newspaper. Below are links to four newspapers we have selected and a quick overview of their writing style and finesse. Check them out!
Latest NewsS (RL Albanian)
My newspaper aims to give news not just from -sim but from RL life
The Daily Bugel
My newspaper, The Daily Bugle, is aimed towards bringing truth to the eWorld. Throughout the day I read all sorts of articles, look at the markets, political, and militaristic events gathering information about the resent happenings to give a clear picture of the eWorld to my subs. I like to question a lot and really dig into finding the truth.
Fruit.txt
my newspaper aims to occupy the media with pro-Fruitcommando propaganda, silencing all opposition. It will also report on various tragic events such as explosives planted in various buildings, political opponents to Fruitcommando becoming deceased, all of this Fruit.txt not being in anyway responsible for.
Stranger Than Fiction
No real focus as of yet
Government Interview
In today’s U.S. government there are many secret voices of power, but here in the WHPR, we would like to divulge information on these mysterious citizens. But who to choose? That, my fellow eSim players, is up to you. We have selected a multitude of these hidden voices and will do interviews with them every article. But, it is up to you who we choose each week. So please visit the link below and select your candidate for next week’s article!
Form
WHPR Press Corp
The expanded workload of the White House Press Report has driven us to hire a few code monkeys and moles to help us out around the office. As such we have established the WHPR Press Corp to help us out on these tasks. If you don’t mind sending PM’s to a multitude of people and would like the potential to submit your own segments of the WHPR simply fill out the application.
Form
Graphics Competition
We are ditching Elitists graphics in favor of new, patriotic, and all around amazing ones. Unfortunately for us, none of us are very good with Photoshop, paint.net, or even paint and cannot live up to the high standards Khaled demands. As such, were offering up a prize to whoever can redesign the logos for Cornocopia and Information web.
Department of Misinformation Web
Doyou have individual thoughts? Do you believe that you know what is bestfor your country? Think again! The Emir always knows best -- but the Emir has forced a poor scribe named
Feefaroni to write a guide on how to play the game in a manner best suited for you!

Operation Malnutrition
While the Malik personally would not care if you died of hunger, his top advisers (now deceased) informed him that a malnourished population produced 100% more items than a dead population. So, Khaled decided that it would be a great thing too have a government program to feed the hungry and to keep away those pesky Western internet activists.

The Malik’s Writing Prize
Seeing as we are an accepting (and slightly overarching) goverment, we are offering prizes to the more intelligent members of our society (to entice them into revealing themselves.) This will be very similar to last month’s “Pulitzer Prize” -- but the Malik thought it best if we got rid of that Hungarian-American and instead replaced the namesake with a more intelligent person (i.e. our great leader, Khaled Ibrahim)
We will be offering 5 Gold prizes to:
a) The most interesting and captivating rebel.
Bonus Prize: Brain Hemmorage.
b) The most loyal and endearing article to the regime.
Bonus Prize: Monthly writer’s stipend.

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.
