So you have decided that you want to become involved in the USA politics, great! But where do you find a government job? What jobs are there? And how do you get one of these jobs? The Department of Education will cover all these questions and help any player aspiring to be the president one day. This will be a series of two articles that will cover the in-game political positions and the outside of game positions. This article will cover the in-game ones.
First off there are three in-game political positions you can hold. President, Party President, and Congress member. All three of these positions are determined by in-game elections. Elections are held on the 5th day of the month, the 15th day of the month, and the 25th day of the month respectively.
The President
The presidents in-game responsibilities are those of foreign policy mainly, the president can declare war, propose alliances, propose peace treaties, and attack regions of other countries. The president also has more responsibility outside of the game as he picks and presides over his cabinet, which will be discussed more soon. The President is the highest political office one can hold, and with that position much is demanded. A good president must be very active on the forums, IRC, and in the game to efficiently run the country.
Congress
Congress is made up of twenty congress members voted for each month. Congress members propose and vote on laws dealing with printing money, donating money(generated from taxes), Impeachment of the president, and changing taxes. Congress members also should be active on the forums, IRC, and the game since most congressional discussions and budgeting happen on the forums. However due to the nature of the game the most deserving and active players will not always get voted into congress because a large portion of the voters may not know who the active ones are. So if you don't get voted to congress try again next time.
Party President
The Party President is voted in by the members of the political party. The party president’s job is to lead their party and determine what members run for congress. Depending on the size of the party itself the elections may or may not be a big deal. The party president position really has no influence in the government besides deciding which member can run for congress.
That is it for the in-game government positions, read the next article and I will discuss the outside of game government positions and tell you how to get a government job.

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.
