If have been asking my self why I keep playing in Canada for a very long time
After all we once where gallivanting around, fighting among our selves in a Civil War. Although people seemed to get annoyed it was fun. Interesting, some events where actually unfolding. Kinda of like watching Yosemite Sam in Loonie Toons. All was fun, and soon after the extremists gained control we plunged our selves into a war with the UK. One that was brought upon by hostile acts of the British. But after that. What happened?
Well I will tell you what happened, the same old boring people got into leadership, and inactivity steadily declined. Even I was just two-clicking for several days. It is people like Papa that, yes sure they "stabilized" the economy, in terms of what CAD was worth to gold (A rate at 0.1 gold for 1 CAD ). But again what result has this gotten us. It saved us some coin by not printing more CAD to supply our needs.
But lets face the cold hard facts, even with the High Region which was the priority on so many peoples minds. We have not done much in terms of progress. Sure we might be better off than if we were American or British. But the action, and events that shaped E-Sim Canada left with it. No more wars, no more IRC (except for a small group).
I guess what I am trying to say is that we need some changes. To bring excitement into the game. Someone start a civil war, or just do something to make Canada more interesting. Instead of sitting around, fighting for people to work for you, and steadily lose what population we have.
If the current leadership cannot change things. I may consider giving it a shot at the Presidential Elections. Give Canadians a choice to keep what they have now. Or to progress into something else. A chance to change what I believe is truly wrong with our country.

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.
