(In the following article, sTaiwan represents the nation “Taiwan” in SECURA server.)
There are two political parties in sTaiwan, one of which is “TT Party,” mainly made up by players from MU “Taiwanese Tiger.” As for this MU, we believe it is established by almost RL Serbian players, whose leader is Clyde, current sTaiwan president. As we can see, under the leadership of Clyde, sTaiwan has signed MPP with alliance SUP so right now sTaiwan government is proSUP.
Clyde had posted an article called “Congress!” informing sTaiwan has joined SUP. (Article:http://goo.gl/WGYCv )
Another party is called “Black Lotus.” Maybe people would be curious about why this party is named “Black Lotus,” and we have to say that it’s just a little joke from a Taiwanese player.

)
The party “Black Lotus” was originally from “白蓮黨.”(“White Lotus&rdquo
During the first party president election, Taiwanese players won over other candidates with major votes and then changed the party name into “Black Lotus".

People may ask, “What kind of party would ‘Black Lotus’ be? What goals are ‘Black Lotus’ going to accomplish?” Before explaining all these quesitons, people should have more understanding about where these SECURA Chinese players are from and how they know about this game.
Before the SECURA server starts, all these Chinese players joining e-sim are also players in eRep and get to know each other in eRep. Almost everyone is from two MU in eRep, “Taiwan Armed MOBs” and “OUTER HEAVEN.” When the PRIMERA server just started, we have introduced e-sim to our friends in OUTER HEAVEN’s RC(RaidCall) channel, recruiting them into this game, and further attracting newbies directly in eRep.
In eRep, all of us are citizens in Republic of China (Taiwan). Many of us are former government officials or even presidents, while others are mainly active national guards.
As an example, there are 5 SECURA sTaiwan players having been as a president in eRep.
What is more interesting is that they are just simply 2-clickers in e-sim. We join e-sim because we simply want to introduce TAIWAN to more foreign people, letting them know there is a real beautiful place called Taiwan in RL. In general, e-sim Chinese players are almost from eRep. Actually most of us are rather active in eRep than in e-sim. We can be easily found in IRC channel #PTT_Formosa and #e-sim.cntw, and mainly active in #PTT_Formosa, our eRep ROC main channel. As for #e-sim.cntw, you can find China and Taiwan people since this channel is sChina and sTaiwan joint main channel.
In the beginning of SECURA server, there are so many non-Chinese players in sTaiwan that the dominant power is controlled by TTP, leaded by Clyde. After getting through the hard start of SECURA, we’ve decided not to miss the first congressmen election. Through this chance, we want to make more Chinese players participate in sTaiwan’s every single move. This time, we have elected 20 party members to compete in congressmen election, under the party name “Black Lotus.”
Currently there are 3 main alliances, being CPA, GIP, SUP, in SECURA. Since Chinese players hold a rather small existence with about 300 players, we decide not to undergo tremendous changes, while possessing no active proneness toward wars between alliances. We still need battle fields, and we choose to stand with our allies and continuing MPPs with SUP allies.
Although we are RL ROC players, we welcome foreign friends born in sTaiwan. Although we use different mother tongue, stay in different RL country, have different culture, we can be true brothers in sTaiwan, in this game.

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.
