The UK government supporting anything the USA does however insane, immoral or illegal.
In E-sim the UK has now a new tradition - Impeaching the CP.
I know some countries like to copy our traditions so I though I ought to right a guide on the correct etiquette so no one commits a social Fu par.
The start;
General grumblings about the government - it is important that these grumbling remain very vague and not directed at any individual.
After a day then attacks on the CP, one would be tempted at this stage to level very detailed accusations THIS IS A MISTAKE and should be avoided - tradition states these attack must be general.
The Impeachment
To be correct this really should be done by a member of the CP's cabinet. If this is not possible then at the very least a cabinet member must lead the attack against his own leader. There has been some talk of the proposer should then inexplicably leave the congress, this is not part of the tradition and should be avoided.
Once the impeachment has been proposed there is the very important and ancient tradition of swapping personal insults. There are very clear rules to follow here and one must not be tempted to stray from the accepted path. These insults can be directed at any one who is either pro or anti the impeachments. Acceptable insults;
Implying that your opponents parents had a very close personal genetic relationship.
Casting dispersions on your opponents sexual orientation, prowess and preferences.
At this point it is now acceptable to mention actions in the game but theses should be exaggerated, for example 'by voting for this impeachment you want the UK to fail.' or 'You want the Swiss to come and take our high resource regions.' 'When the previous CP was in power we ruled the world, now all we have is a garden shed in Liverpool.'
The Vote;
There are only two acceptable ways for Congressmen to behave in this circumstance;
Despite expressing strong opinions about the impeachment you don't vote.
Voting the opposite way you did last time, so if you previously supported a CP you must now abandon him. It would be a terrible mistake to vote the same way twice, you will ostracised from polite society.
The result.
After the result there is only one way for the losing side to act; they must declare the UK is finished and the barbarian hordes (probably the French) have been hoping for this result and will now descend apon us, raping and pillaging at will. They must now sulk for two days before starting the ceremony again.
I'm now off to drink my tea (with lemon not milk I'm not a pleb you know!)
Thank you for reading
This is meant as a joke and not directed at any individual!

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.
