If one cares to look objectively at the past few months, one could easily notice that for several months, the USA did not have any colonies and, in fact contrary to what petrol or anyone else says, Canada did not liberate their regions 3 months ago or more recently in the past few days. Three or four months ago, there was an understanding that the USA would give the useless colonies we held at the time back to Canada in the good faith that a rental deal would soon after be made for CEC. Political turmoil in Canada and general avoidance stalled that deal from ever happening, and so USA waited and helped our alliance-mates.
When I became president of USA in early June, after being de facto President for the preceding 2 months (just ask
In helping USA’s allies in Trinity, we were offered the regions of Mexico then held by Brazil. I wasn’t about to pass up an active war as my citizens and new players practically died on the vine. So I took a week out from my planned actions with Canada to absorb Mexico and did so with relative ease. It quickly neared the time that I would seek re-election and with that came an idea that has been tried on this server but in a different part of the world by someone who currently carries USA citizenship and I’ve had good discussions with him about various things over the course of my terms.
Then one day, I got online to discover that Taiwan had effectively gone rogue and started a DoW law anyway. This had precipitated Swinke kicking them from the alliance and I pushed a DoW law through my own congress to pre-empt the Taiwanese attack. From the start, my goal was to enter into a rental deal with Canada as I’d been trying to do for months. I attacked CPC to block Taiwan and continued negotiations in earnest with the Canadian cp. CPC was taken with ease and Ireland decided to get into the fray. Again, in order to protect the possibility of a rental agreement, I attacked CEC before the Irish could even finish their DoW voting.
In unilateral talks, a rental agreement was reached and signed, with the secret stipulation that I’d wipe Canada to end the wars they had been drawn into. This whole time, I had been trying to get a definitive answer from China about what they were planning to do in regards to Taiwan, but only got silence. At this time, Petrol spun all of my actions as imperialistic and condemned them, marshalling support from EGIL and the UN. (As an aside, I was trying to get something similar to EGIL in place in North America at the same time I was protecting Canada from outside interference) Ironically, EGIL dissolved and Egypt held onto the Israeli regions in contravention of that agreement, which strikes me as a bit of hypocrisy on Petrol’s part, I’m not going to lie.
So now, as it was always part of the plan to give Canada most of her regions back, let me knock from your pedestals anyone who thought that you somehow “liberated” Canadian regions by overpowering the USA. Indeed, any glory you think you might have earned for your actions really rests with those who bravely defended the USA when Taiwan actually attacked 3 days ago. If you now feel cheated of honor somehow in the events that happened, I must place the blame entirely at the feet of the Canadian government who insisted on keeping this a secret even after my attempts to persuade them.
Finally, I have to thank everyone how helped the USA defend herself in this initial fight. Thanks to the members of Trinity who have stood behind the USA and me as USA's leader and policy-maker. I have always striven to conduct my business with honor and integrity. To accuse me of behaving contrary to that is to speak falsely and frankly, anyone who does so now should be taken to task about that. (Just a thought, if you’re lying about this, which is what a false accusation is, perhaps there are other things you aren’t being truthful about.)

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.
