We all know that when the new countries were being added new borders needed to be created. For instance, Australia was no longer connected with Argentina since Chile became included in the game. Or similarly the border between Brazil and Mexico was broken because of the inclusion of Colombia. Other countries like Malaysia were also included, so why borders effecting that inclusion not changed?
So why then is Indonesia still bordered with South Korea........this makes NO SENSE
Currently a border exists between Kalimantan and Jeolla. This unrealistic border means that the border literally jumps right over Malaysia and Taiwan!
This border needs to be updated. Kalimantan will now border with Sabah (Malaysia) and if anything, Sabah (Malaysia) will now border with Jeolla!
YOU ALSO HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT SOUTH KOREA IS THE REAL COUNTRY GETTING THE RAW END OF THE DEAL HERE! CONQUESTS COME AND GO, BUT THE RAMIFICATIONS IS ON SOUTH KOREA HERE
One of the other issues is the amount of bordering nations that each nation has. This is of vital importance as this stipulates to a certain extent the amount that a nation can potentially expand. Obviously in Europe these are going to differ due to the geography of the world map. As you can see Russia will have many borders due to the size of the country, and countries like Switzerland will have many borders since they are land locked. But for instance.
Australia: Connects with Indonesia and Chile - only 2 nations. Perhaps another link needs to be added from Queensland to Peru
Malaysia: Indonesia, China, Taiwan - 3 nations
Taiwan: Malaysia, China, South Korea - 3 nations
But under the current borders Indonesia has 5 nations!
Indonesia: Malaysia, India, China, Australia, South Korea
JUST SO THIS DOESNT GET TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT. ALL I AM SAYING IS TO REMOVE THE DIRECT LINK BETWEEN INDONESIA AND SOUTH KOREA, AND CHANGE IT TO MALAYSIA AND SOUTH KOREA
Come on Admin! FIX THIS UP FAST!
PLEASE GET IN THEIR FAST AND VOTE, WE NEED THE ADMIN TO TAKE NOTICE OF THIS BUG!
Take for instance the border changes that occurred with the introduction of Chile.
Another example being the border changes that occurred with the introduction of Colombia
IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE:
OLD BORDER = SOUTH KOREA/INDONESIA
NEW COUNTRY = MALAYSIA
NEW BORDERS = SOUTH KOREA/MALAYSIA, MALAYSIA/INDONESIA
No doubt everyone in Indonesia is going to claim, well is should be a border, and if it isnt, well, Papua will be its border instead, as this gives them access to more minor countries to attack. They say, look, its directly above Indonesia. For those players that are geographically challenged, you must realize that the flat world map is not how the world really is! On a real life globe, WHICH IS ROUND, Indonesia and South Korea is separated directly by a multitude of countries,like Malaysia, Brunei, Philippines, Taiwan, Japan. Canada for instance is only separated by Japan. In this list, ahhhhh, we all see Malaysia and Taiwan.
Barking up the tree that Indonesia can draw a straight line to South Korea is both illogical and thoughtless, both in theory and for the progress and equality in the game. Using the skeptics "straight line theory". C'mon, guys, use atleast a little bit of sense here. If we do this, then stupid things like this will happen.
Then people will also claim that, well Canada and further away, why is this bordered with them? The fact that you guys write things like, "oh Indonesia is closer" it brings to mind comments made by Sarah Palin when she said that she could Russia from her back door.
If we want to get technical about it, lets look at the border between Australia and Chile
Australia to Chile: 11687KM
Canada to South Korea: 8153 KM
FINALLY, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH DISTANCE! IT HAS TO DO WITH WHAT COUNTRIES EXIST IN ESIM IN RELATION TO THE COUNTRIES THAT DO AND DONT! THIS DICTATES THE BORDERS. INDONESIA AND SOUTH KOREA ARE SEPARATED BY BOTH TAIWAN AND MALAYSIA
Courtesy of Pulman, another thing to look at is the general borders around the Pacific Rim. Maybe something like this might be more appropriate
Taiwan - Borders with Malaysia, China, South Korea, Indonesia
South Korea - Borders with China, Russia, Taiwan, Canada
Malaysia - Borders with Indonesia, China, Taiwan, South Korea
Australia - Borders with Indonesia, Chile, Peru, Argentina (but Western Australia)/ or India
Canada - Borders with USA, South Korea, UK, Ireland (or instead of South Korea, Russia - however this will give another border to Russia)
Chile - Borders with Argentina, Australia, Peru (only 3 nations here)
Peru - Borders with Australia, Brazil, Chile, Argentina
USA - Borders with Canada, Russia, Mexico, Portugal
Argentina - Borders with Peru, Brazil, Chile, Australia

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.
