So, with that being said let's dive in to days 319-326 (some of 319 was covered in the last article).
War
Wars this week have been insane, I figured it would actually be better that I don't even bother naming all of them, and just list important ones with some added input in each, but not a really huge analysis.
-Canada East Coast wars: The US had a scare this week, almost losing CEC because of the Ukraine and Serbia attacking with a power, wars have been going all week but they haven't really went anywhere other than the 8-6 victory over the CEC. Wars in the CEC at the moment are mainly drain wars, but one today saw Canada win a round with the help of 2 Canadians by the name of strcat and almex, dealing around 1M damage together.
-Cork/Kerry - As with CEC these are just drain wars, unlike the CEC however, we did not have a scare here, the most rounds we lost were 4 in a single RW.
With so many wars going on in the world, I really can't talk about them, everything has gone insane, battles are raging across the world and territories are being taken and reclaimed I really can't report on them all, but battles of interest will be listed, (W) and (L) signifies wins or losses, the ones on the right are the ones we were supporting.
China (W) vs Indonesia (L) 8-3
Slovenia (W) vs Italy (L) 8-3
Sweden (W) vs Russia (L) 8-5
Poland (W) vs Lativa (L) 8-7
Moscow was also taken, but it wasn't included in DoD orders, so I haven't listed it - I couldn't possibly hope to list all the wars, so I'm sorry in advance.
Politics
Congress - Well, this week we had congressional elections, I'm not going to get really into it, because congress really does tend to take up so much time what with the articles and all that if you don't know about some candidates, I'd assume you already have one, so instead of going over each one I'll give you a list to check out on your own.

Five people recieved the same amount of votes as Robert and Nathan, this congressional race was a tough one, but I think that a ton of people that got in can do a great job, and I look forward to how they handle the situation that we're currently in.
MPPs
MPPs were made with the following countries in the last week
-Italy
-Hungary
-Indonesia
-Russia
-Bulgaria
-Lithuania
With alliances gaining power, and the world in a giant power struggle you can expect to see more wars all around, the US is between a rock an a hard place with its RWs and obligations to help countries, so far we haven't won any foreign DoD orders this week, and we've been having issues stabalizing forces to fight back, but the tables are starting to turn I believe, and as our group grows in power our bonds should grow, barring another baby boom from Poland.
World News
It's not that there isn't any world news, it's just that there's so much it's hard to report it, at the moment there's a major power struggle with the alliances of the world, and it's pointing to Nexus at the moment, while the US's judgement on joining anonymous may be questioned, the fact that we backed those who backed us is very important to me, and it seems our country is dedicated to actually keeping our friends closer rather than what would make it easier for us, which is really the most important thing to me.
Final Thought
With the world now at war, and the US on the brink of smashing Poland without an MPP, you really have to think on how we have grown as a nation. Our quality is outstanding, and our brothers all around the world can have the same said for themselves. Empires are not built in a day, and they do not topple with a few hits from a strategic assault, but our attacks do leave cracks in the foundation, and as we grow and gain experience in our E-trial, and the first year of our world comes to us, a change is on the horizon for all of us, this war could be the end of many Countries, or the start of a revolution that will strike the world with such ferocity that our names will be known, and while I don't support the destruction of nations, I do think it's necessary in order to destroy all-powerful alliances. Imperialism is a terrible philosophy, but when everyone you stand in arms with falls victim to these principles, you must rise up and fight for what you believe in.
As the cracks spread in the foundation of Nexus, and we build up as a nation as well as an alliance, we must know that with great power comes great responsibility. This not only is coated in us, but in our brotherhood. We cannot become an all powerful alliance, we need to stick to our gut and stand by our friends at all times, but if a tyranical empire's foundation begins to be built, our citizens must realize that we cannot be that alliance and country. Our views must mature, and we as a nation must mature into a stage where we don't view power in such a lustful obsession. As always, love and respect one another, and you may gain rewards from your labors.

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.
