King of birds Simurg drops a magnificent feather; the birds which are tired of discord decide to find it. They know that the name of the king means “Thirty birds”, that his palace is situated on Kafa, a mountain or a mountain ring-shaped ridge which circumvents the earth. At first some birds demonstrate cowardice: nightingale refers to his love to rose; parrot — to his beauty for the sake of which he has to live in a birdcage; partridge cannot part from its hills, heron — from swamps and owl — from ruins. Finally they undertake this daring journey; they overcome seven valleys and seas. Many pilgrims quit, others perish during the passage. And thirty birds who have reached purgation owing to their work alight on Simurg mountain. Finally they saw it, and here they understand that they themselves are “Simurg”, and that “Simurg” is each of them and all of them together.
Simurg Efsanesi;
‘Efsaneye göre kuşların hükümdarı olan Simurg ( Zümrüd-ü Anka ), Bilgi Ağacı’nın dallarında yaşar ve her şeyi bilirmiş’
Kuşlar Simurg’a inanır ve onun kendilerini kurtaracağını düşünürlermiş. Ama içlerinden Simurg’u gören olmamış. Simurg ortada görünmedikçe kuşkulanır olmuşlar ve sonunda umudu kesmişler. Simurg’un yuvası, etekleri bulutların üzerinde olan Kaf Dağı’nın tepesindeymiş. Bir gün uzak bir ülkede bir kuş sürüsü Simurg’un kanadından bir tüy bulmuş. Simurg’un var olduğunu anlayan dünyadaki tüm kuşlar toplanmışlar ve hep birlikte Simurg’un huzuruna gidip, yolunda gitmeyen şeyler için yardım istemeye karar vermişler.
Kaf dağına varmak için ise yedi dipsiz vadiyi aşmak gerekirmiş, Bu vadilerin her biri bir diğerinden daha çetinmiş. Birincisi; İSTEK, ikincisi; AŞK, üçüncüsü; MARİFET, dördüncüsü; İSTİSNA, beşincisi; TEVHİD, altıncısı; ŞAŞKINLIK ve yedincisi ; YOK OLUŞ vadileriymiş.
‘Yedi vadi üzerinden uçtukça sayıları gittikçe azalmış.’
Kuşlar, hep birlikte göğe doğru uçmaya başlamışlar. İsteği ve sebatı az olanlar, dünyevi şeylere takılanlar yolda birer birer dökülmüşler. Yorulanlar ve düşenler olmuş. Önce ‘Aşk Denizi’nden geçmişler sonra ‘Ayrılık Vadisi’nden’ uçmuşlar. ‘Hırs Ovası’nı aşıp, ‘Kıskançlık Gölü’ne’ sapmışlar. Kuşların kimisi ‘Aşk Denizi’ne’ dalmış, kimisi ‘Ayrılık Vadisi’nde’ kopmuş sürüden. Kimi hırslanıp düşmüş ovaya, kimi kıskanıp batmış göle.
Önce Bülbül geri dönmüş, güle olan aşkını hatırlayıp; Papağan o güzelim tüylerini bahane etmiş (oysa tüyleri yüzünden kafese kapatılırmış); Kartal yükseklerdeki krallığını bırakamamış; Baykuş yıkıntılarını; Balıkçıl kuşu bataklığını özlemiş…
En sonunda gittikçe azalan kuşlardan otuz tanesi kaf dağının ardına varabilmiş..
Sonunda sırrı, sözcükler çözmüş:Farsça ‘si’, ‘otuz’ demektir. ‘Murg’ ise ‘kuş.’
Ve nihayet beş vadiden geçtikten sonra gelen Altıncı Vadi ‘Şaşkınlık’ ve sonuncusu Yedinci Vadi olan ‘Yokoluş Vadisi’nde’ bütün kuşlar umutlarını yitirmiş. Kaf Dağı’na vardıklarında geriye sadece otuz kuş kalmış. Simurg’un yuvasını bulunca ögrenmişler ki ‘Simurg – otuz kuş’ demekmiş. Onların her biri birer Simurg’muş. 30 kuş anlar ki aradıkları sultan kendileridir ve gerçek yolculuk, kendine yapılan yolculuktur.

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.
