Many young people get the urge to travel when they exit their teenage years and roll into their 20s. Whether it's around their country, continent or across the globe, travelling is a common interest among most people regardless of culture, language or background. Unfortunately, many people do not get the chance to do much travelling until they are much much older because of financial reasons, careers cannot be put on hold, too many other commitments, etc.
However, since
cpt is from Poland in RL, and I am a Canadian (Live in Ottawa). Our plan is to meet in Poland, do a quick week-long tour around the country to check things out, and buy stuff we'll need for our long trip, and then hopefully get going to our first Destination! On a sidenote, i don't personally know any Poles in e-sim, but if anyone wants to meet up with us and show us how to properly party in Poland, let us know
(
)
After Poland, we will go north to visit Sweden, home of some pretty cool Delta players! We will organize a big RL meetup somewhere in the southern part of the country, and hopefully some of the Finns and Norwegians in Delta will make the trip!
Amazing paint skills, what can i say! :3
For the Swedish part of the journey,
If any other Swede wants us to drop by and say hello we'd be honoured to have some drinks and meet as many of you as possible! Not only that but it's great if some locals can show us around your town so we know where the good spots are to party!
We're not sure how long we will stay in Sweden, depends how many people we see and how many drunk nights we experience! But next on our journey will be Denmark, we will head southwest back down to the center of Europe.
I don't know too many RL danes, but there's a few of you I must meet (Kurt + Kwil!)
And again, we won't be staying at hotels , so we'll either improvise or stay at the home of any gracious e-simmer who can generously offer us shelter for a night or 2. But giving us a place to sleep is far from a must to meet you! We just wanna party and have fun with as many of you as possible! So meet up with us, show us why your town and country is awesome and let's have a memorable time!
After Denmark we are not sure where we wanna go yet. We will either cut through Germany, and visit Netherlands, Belgium and go through France to Spain. Or instead we will take a more direct route through the heart of Germany towards Spain and not go down the coast.
We don't know as many e-simmers in those countries due to a lack of interaction, but we wanna see your country and we need some locals to show us around! (I speak French too btw, so that's a plus if we meet any of you french e-simmers
Although my french is pretty shitty ) Let cpt and I know either in the comments or in a PM which cities we have to stop by and what we need to make sure to see in those countries! Whether we meet up with you or not, getting good travelling tips through PM are always helpful and appreciated
Once get to Spain, we will meet up with
Following our stay in Spain we will likely head back towards Poland but we must still decide on the route we take. There are roughly 2 big options, as demonstrated by the following picture, although the 2nd option has multiple sub-options (these images are getting super advanced
)
Let us know what's the best route to take through Europe!
And tell us if we may be passing through your general region so we can say hi!
Thats all for now, we probably won't bring this up publicly again through articles until it's much closer, this is just to get some feelers and suggestions to plan out the raw itinerary of our trip.
Signing off,

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.
