People of the United States, I salute you all!
We have come a very long way since our humble origins from being reduced to one region by Russia, but alas, it has been more than a month already since that happened - how time flies? We are all sitting here not getting any younger as the seasons change and the weeks flash past.
Indeed, how time flies.
However, even with the passing of time, and changing of season, things are indeed getting better. We have a functioning economy, with a good deal of income for the country being generated daily - it's not a fortune, but it's a start. We are growing in numbers, and I for one am glad to see so many new faces everywhere everyday.
Militarily, we are also growing strongly and steadily. We have managed to single-handedly turn the tides of battles and wars being fought abroad as well as able to easily keep control of Canada East Coast.
However, we all know that we can do better.
The Sword and the Shield: Military
The military is the sheild that protects and defends our nation as well as the sword that strikes out against the aggressors that surround us and seek to attack us. Thus, it is important that we properly invest in, expand, and improve all aspects of our military.
One of the first aspect that I will tend to if the people of the United States deign to grace me and elect me as their President will be to continue the Hells on Wheels program, which gets more weapons into the hands of our citizen soldiers.
I will also look to expand the funding for the Department of Defense. It is highly critical that we expand the Department of Defense’s budget as it is key to our nation’s expansion and defense. I will push to get more funds to the Department of Defense so that our soldiers can rank up and level up faster than ever before. Due to the extreme growth of our economy, our budget should be easily able to accomodate a large increase in defense spending.
The United States also has one of the largest numbers of militias in the world. This is something that we should exploit. Currently, many of our militias are fighting in random battles around the world and are wasting damage that could be used elsewhere. What I propose is that we form a committee or department to oversee the integration of the militias into the Department of Defense and to get the militias to follow Department of Defense orders in exchange for government subsidies on food and weapons. Thus, we will be able to maximize our damage in key battles and wars abroad and at home.
The Fuel of our Nation: Economy
The economy is the fuel that drives our nation. It is what drives allows our citizens to grow and our military to excel and improve its damage.
Our economy is quickly reorienting to grain, which is in our strength at the moment. However, we cannot allow our economy to become too dependent on grain and should attempt to diversify by acquiring an iron or diamond region to improve our economy. We currently have a high iron region in the Pacific Coast. We can attempt to take it back via negotiations with the Russian - and possibly by assisting them in capturing another iron region elsewhere in the world.
Though reacquiring the iron region would, in the short term, be bad for our business owners due to the fact that it would drive wages up, it would, in the long run, vastly improve our economy and we would make much more money from reacquiring our regions than we are currently receiving from the Russian rent. However, I would like to emphasize that if we do reacquire these regions it will be via negotiations and not through force.
I wll also keep the peg at its current rate of 0.02 gold.
And finally, I would like to introduce my cabinet:

Also on a final note, I would like to apologize to those who think I haven't been putting forth enough effort into my campaign. I had college mid terms this week as well I traveled back to Egypt to visit my family and thus had problems connecting to the internet.
I believe I am the best candidate for the job despite what the naysayers say. We can do this! We can make this nation a better place for all!
Vote Khaled Ibrahim for President of the United States!
Regards,
Khaled Ibrahim

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.
