We have accomplished great things this month. We almost made a return to the map, just 8 million more and we would have won. Even without winning, we proved ourselves, we showed the world that we are still here and have not given up. It earned us respect from other countries, and some invitations to alliances (which is currently being discussed by congress).
A commune was set up for US Air National Guard, former First Line of Defense, and I would like to thank those people that have worked in it. If you want to join the commune, then I encourage you to contact either myself or jmurrib21, and a spot will be prepared for you.
A new forum for congress was made, and has much activity on it (nearly 600 posts as I write this, so much for a new forum making inactivity right Crash?), and I am going to bring it up to congress about making it open to the public, which means US MU's and Political Parties could have a forum on their to use that only their members could view, much easier than having to send a message to everyone in the Party or MU.
IRC is honeslty a difficult problem to work with. I encourage all players to read this article and create an account. With better coordination we would have won in Alaska. Besides the strikes channel (#Strikes.usa) to coordinate with, we have a channel for the US Air National Guard (message jmurrib21), the US trade channel (#USA_trade) to help our citizens sell and buy from other US Citizens, and an IRC channel for Congress should be created shortly.
My Cabinet:
MoFA: 101st Airforce
SoD: Georgesaade130
SoI: Tarvinn
SoT: GBoT
Advisors: Colonel Chamberlain, jmurrib21, mmacke4
Strikes coordinators: jmurrib21, Colonel Chamberlain
We have done great things this month, and I believe that even greater things await us next month, if you have read this far, then I thank you, whether you vote for me or not, becuase it means you wish to make an informed vote and means you want the best for the US.
Thank you

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.
