I want to take this time to thank you for granting me the opportunity to serve you in Congress. As I've already said, it is a great honor for me and I will perform my duties with diligence.
As everyone knows, over Christmas, eUSA went to war with Canada. There was a huge response from Americans and we dropped over 122 Million damage in the 14 round struggle to take CEC. I was in the strikes channel almost the whole time as we carefully watched each round. When we lost the battle, US Pacific Coast was attacked by Canada. In another 14 round affair, we dropped another 105 Million damage . That is not bad for a country with 400 citizens, but what concerns me is the waste I began to see, especially early. If you look at round 4 , you can see that the difference between our damage and Canada's and her allies would have been very useful in subsequent rounds. I was allowed to run HoW for a while in the later rounds of this battle and still found that I didn't need to order strikes at T-2 because we were ahead by 3-4 Million damage, Damage that would have been useful in that critical 14th round when we lost the round by 1.4 Million, and consequently the battle.
While dropping 227 million damage is quite a feat for our little country, we can take lessons from it and use our damage more effectively. This means not fighting in the middle of the round when our enemies have an hour to drum up the damage to match us. Instead drop it within 5 minutes of the end of the round. I understand that sometimes these rounds end after a long day and you want to get rest, but unless you're neutralizing our enemies damage, it is likely to be wasted.
While this may seem to be a dressing down, I am very proud of the effort that was put in, with only token Allied support, against some of the hardest hitting merc MUs in the game. We took them to 14 rounds twice and should hold our heads high because of that.
Let the eWorld take note, the eUSA is a force not to be taken lightly. With some improvement, we can be a force to be reckoned with.

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.
