I noticed that there wasn’t any guides for newcomers, so i decided to write one. It will be really long, but I hope it will help you a little bit.
Let’s start then, shall we?
Just after you have joined e-Sim, if you scroll down a bit, you will see “Your today’s tasks” part. When you complete these tasks, you get experience points (XP). You will get 3 xp for training, 5 xp for working, 3 xp for uploading an avatar (you will get that xp only for the first time) and 1 xp for fighting.
Your daily strength gain with training is like this:
0-20 Days | 20 str/day
20-60 Days | 10 str/day
60-140 Days | 5 str/day
140+ Days | 2.5 str/day
You can fight in on-going battles, only if the country you reside in is either involved or ally to one of the participating countries. If you can’t see any battles in “Battles” tab on the right hand side of your screen, you can travel to that kind of a region. You are given 2 Q5 moving tickets (MT) once you joined e-Sim.
On the left side of your screen, you can see your rank, economic skill, strength, current location, citizenship, food/gift limits, money, inventory and health points (HP). You can lose and gain HP with certain actions. When you travel somewhere using moving tickets, you lose 0-40 HP based on your ticket's Quality (0 for Q5 tickets and 40 with Q1). When you are fighting, you lose 10 HP with every hit. When you have 0.0 HP left, you can buy gifts or foods from product market which is located under market menu to regain HP. Q1 foods/gifts restore 10 HP, Q2 restores 20 and so on. But beware that you can use up to 10 gifts and foods a day. And with day-change, you gain 50 HP automatically.
Main currency of e-Sim is Gold, but every nation also has their own currencies. You will get your salary with local currency. You can get gold with earning medals or trading goods. Also, after you reach level 6, with every level, you will get 5 gold automatically (You will get 2 bonus gold if you joined with an invitation). If you want to exchange one to another, just check the monetary market under the market menu. You can spend those gold on creating or buying companies and again, trading.
I know it was a very long article and i don't want it to be any more boring than it already is, so i will just stop here. All these aren't even the half of the game, so wait for more articles to come!

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.
