#4 “We are bored and this will be fun.”
If you are so bored, move to a different country and wreak havoc there. All you’re doing here is sidetracking the players that are having fun for a few days while you have your attention tantrum. How about you instead change your gameplay to make it more interesting so you don’t also disrupt international issues so you can have your jollies.
#3 “It's just about the medals and achievements.”
I hate to break it to you but you don’t get medals for participating in a civil war. For those of you that will fight on the rebel side, the only gold you’re going to get is the gold from the 8-15 BH medals that you already know will be going to the foreigners that you bribed to show up for you. I’m inclined to believe it will be closer to the 8 figure than to 15. Achievements in this game are as meaningful as the participation certificate you get for sitting on a bench all year. Have fun with that worthless piece of virtual paper, boys. I’ll just be over here continuing to lead the country.
#2 “There aren’t any good battles for us to fight in.”
What is your definition of a “good battle” exactly, and do you even look at the battles page at all? USA is in this coalition that is commonly referred to as an alliance. I don’t know how many times in the last month my friends in Supreme Bankai and I have been the only fighters for the whole of our primetime that actually fight. You speak disparagingly about the so-called decline of our power and the eroding of our Empire, but you’ve done absolutely nothing to stop it. If anything, you would be the very reason for it in the first place. So this is not a truth but rather a self-fulfilling prophesy that will no doubt continue in earnest if you ever were to gain political power here. Why don’t you find a good battle that our alliance mates are involved in and influence it in a meaningful way instead of sitting on your hands.
#1 “The eIron Throne is mine by right.”
This is the most commonly used reason for this civil war. In order to make the argument, we have to throw out the fact that e-sim doesn’t have thrones and monarchies but each country leader is voted on democratically. Everyone knows that this references a book series turned TV show, which means it has no bearing on any e-sim discussion and should have been flagged as spam the second time King Stannis Baratheon shouted it. But for the sake of argument, let’s run with that thought anyway. We have to change some things to make it relevant. “The Oval Office and the post of country president are mine by election.” But when we translate the Game of Thrones rant into the e-sim world, we quickly discover that
“SEND FORTH ALL LEGIONS! DO NOT STOP THE ATTACK UNTIL THE CITY IS TAKEN!”

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.
