Hello fellow sIrish citizens,
Election time is nearly upon us. The following is the election manifesto of the Free Ireland Party (FIP).
Background
The Free Ireland Party was set up a month ago to make this country strong and economically viable again. The FIP is open to all citizens of Ireland, whether you lean to the left or right of the political spectrum. The last election was the first election that the (FIP) stood candidates for congress. The party’s two candidates
★ tommyvercetti1200 and myself 
DUB were voted in by the sIrish people.
Why vote for a small party like the Free Ireland Party, surely they don't have the same influence as the bigger parties
While we are currently small, we have big aims for sIreland. If we compare the number of TD's after the last congress election
The Society of United Irishmen (8 seats)
Bread, Instead of Bullets Party (5 seats)
The Political Union of Right Politicians (4 seats)
New Ireland (2 seats)
The Free Ireland Party (2 seats)
While I’m sure all TD’s had good intentions when elected, the following is the percentage of TD’s per party that remained committed to sIreland (i.e. that have bothered to remain in sIreland), the rest of TD’s have disappeared while sIreland was invaded by the UK (they mainly fled away to other countries or weren’t bothered to log in for even once a week).
The Society of United Irishmen (37.5 % committed)
Bread, Instead of Bullets Party (60% committed)
The Political Union of Right Politicians (75% committed)
New Ireland (50 % committed) (however have gain another TD)
The Free Ireland Party (100% committed)
While no party can be fully responsible for their members, the above figures indicate that some parties are willing to put forward candidates that don’t have the interest of the country to the forefront. We in the (FIP) will not allow any party candidate/TD to disgrace the party & sIreland. Any TD that doesn’t conduct themselves in a proper manner will not be allowed to seek re-election in the next congress election under the (FIP) name.
What goals does The Free Ireland Party hope to achieve in the term of the next Congress
1) Continued co-operation with our President
LukeZo
2) All-party talks/proposals with the leaders of all political parties aimed at ending the current deadlock with the UK
3) Further development of the AES (Apprenticeship Employer Scheme) link here
4) 90% sign up to sIreland Forum link here (which our President
LukeZo recently set up. All party leaders should encourage their members to sign up and participate in discussions
5) Reform the Military Units (MU). All Irish Citizens should be encouraged to join a MU, we need to expand the number of members allowed.
6) When/if we get the Midlands back, we need encourage Irish citizens to live in sIreland and help the sIrish economy. We have 8 Government owned companies, only 1 is in the Midlands while 3 are in Shannon (which will continue to be under UK control into the near future) and 4 in foreign countries. Our aim is the have at least 6 Government owned companies based in the Midlands (1 each of Iron, Grain, Diamond, Q5 Food, Q5 Gift, Q5 Weapons) where Irish citizens can work. While this will take time to implement, the sale of the foreign based companies will help
8) We would like to see a voluntary contribution scheme implemented to help fund different projects. This scheme is aimed not just at the richest in sIreland, but anyone that can contribute money/gold to help sIreland prosper. The government will set out different projects that need funding (i.e. help buy a food company, increase size of MU etc.)
Citizenship
1) We propose that all citizenship requests be dealt with by a representative of the 5 elected parties. If 4 out of 5 of these representatives are agreeable, then congress will approve the request. The biggest party shall approve the first request for citizenship, then the second biggest and so on, and shall be repeated until all citizenship quotas are used.
2) All requests shall be dealt with within 3 days
3) We are a small country, and need to boast our numbers therefore unless it’s obvious that they are a PTOer, we should be using our full quota of citizenships (currently 20).
4) If any sIreland citizens have friends in other countries, invite them to apply for sIrish citizenship
5) I propose a small fee of 1 gold for all citizenships approved. So a potential sIrish citizen needs to donate 1 gold to Government before his/her citizenship is approved. This money will help fund a government project and hopefully discourage people who don’t have the interest of this nation in their heart.
Recruitment & Membership
The Free Ireland Party is looking to increase our membership. Any like-minded citizens are welcome to join us here at the (FIP). We are also looking for suitable candidates to run under the (FIP) banner. If you are interested in running for congress as a (FIP) member, please contact me directly. We hope to increase the number of TD’s we have in congress.

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.
