I apologize once again for the lack of Norwegian.
So the Presidential elections are over now, I have once again been voted into power. I was the only candidate so victory wasn’t far out of my reach. I won with a total of 42 votes. This tells me that we have at least a 60.86% active enough population to vote, which is good. If only we could make that 60.86% more socially active in-game.
So this month I decided to change up the Government system a bit. Replacing Cabinet with Ministerial Councils, I have found that in general a council of people seem to be more successful than appointing a single person in charge. It also creates a chance for more people to get involved, which is what Norway needs, a more socially active population.
So allow me to layout the current council arrangements, I am still hoping more people will apply for positions because I need help!

So as you can see as of now we have 12 council members instead of 4 Cabinet Ministers. I am hoping to see more applications to further the effectiveness of the Councils. If no one further applies then I may look to pick some peoples second option and throw them into it. Now a Council channel is going to be created for meetings, it will not be protected like the Congress channel, unless there is a meeting. During a meeting the channel will be set to invite only to avoid spies. Our first meeting will most likely be this coming Sunday. I am hoping that everyone will be able to make it.
Goals for this month
Increase Social Activeness: I want to strongly true and get more citizens socially active. Communication is what makes a strong country, it also makes it more fun because then you have people to actually talk to. IRC is something that needs to be stressed, it would be great to get some of our two-clicker players on IRC. I will be getting the Home Affairs Council to work on tutorials, how to use IRC, and help them register a nick.
Increase Military Strength: Norway has heavy hitters that has never been a problem. However what has been a problem is lack of communication. So it will be up to the Military Council to increase the communications between Heimevernet and Forsvarets, try and make sure Orders are set to battles that would best serve our Alliance SUP.
Increase Military Size: Inactivity has hit both Heimevernet and Forsvarets hard, both MUs have lost players. However its clear that we have a number of people who do not have Military units, so I would like to see more people joining the Military Units. By doing so we would be able to direct their damage to key battles, as well as give them a bonus.
Joint Military Strikes: It would be great if once a week, everyone saved their fights for a specific time. Supplies would be provided by the Government and we would all hit the same place at the same time, to show Norway’s Military might! The strikes would also be in key battles to further help our allies.
Civil War: Now Civil Wars are a great way for a country to make money. However if we were to have a Civil War it would require extreme organization to make it worth wild. We would need to make sure we had people of the same strength, using the same weapons on the same side. Clearly Heimevernet and Forsvarets would have to pick a side, because of the MU bonus percentage. We would also have to make sure that people would agree to donate the gold to
Baby Boom: We had a baby boom not too long ago. However not a lot of the boomers decided to actually stay which is very typical for a Baby boom. I am not an expert nor would I know anything about starting a baby boom. So perhaps someone would like to step up and start throwing ideas around.
Citizenship: I would like to try and get a few foreign players to apply for citizenship. Of course we need to be careful who we let in to protect ourselves from a PTO. So perhaps putting new foreign citizens under a month congress ban would be something of interest. I noticed that some Congressmen accept people in a flash. Thats okay if you know the player personally however we need to be cautious with who we let in.
These are the points that I can think about for now. As it is it’s going to be interesting to hopefully see some of these ideas take shape, as we work towards a better Norway!

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.
