180 days ago we embarked on an incredible journey together my comrades; one that will not be forgotten for e-sim's eternity.
It started with an idea, a theory, that by using the ancient Roman strategy of divide et impera - divide and conquer - it would be possible to wipe every country of a temporary server. Contrary to popular belief, it took a lot more than a few visas to accomplish what we did. I'll break it down.
Day 1
Our entire crew signed on the ref links of myself,
Early Game
Staying under the radar was our strategy. We portrayed ourselves as a mid-range country that wanted to mind its own business. We conquered only dead countries the first week and stayed out of alliances. This allowed us to build a record fast fleet of hundreds of NPCs all controlled by our economical specialist
Our entry into the global scene had to be done very carefully. If we seemed to be a threat, our world wipe dream would be over before it even started. When we heard that Romania and Croatia were planning a dual attack on us for control of Poland, we prepared our stocks and we let them hit us first. Our wonderful propaganda expert
Mid Game
Our dedication was unprecedented and nobody could quite keep up for more than a few days before collapsing. It wasn't long before we had swept through most of the Balkan regions. We were at crossroads. Balkans were still rebelling daily, and the rest of the world looked on to see what our next move would be. We had to prevent the world from uniting against us at all costs..
At this stage in the game, we still did not have enough stocks, medkits or fighters to take on everyone at once. Only crafty political gameplay would prevent us from collapsing. We disconnected Algeria from the rest of Vendetta, recruited Turkey to our corner to prevent a flank attack. This left an easy war against Namibia who now stood alone. We waited for them to strike first to maintain our image as the underdog victim (which was comical to us, but still quite real to a big number of ethnica citizens outside our realm of influence).
This allowed us to sweep across the rest of Europe uncontested. What they called a world war, we called a victory lap.
Mexico
Oh Mexico. When we began our quest for world domination, I never imagined we would develop an alliance and friendship with another country as real as this. I remember
End Game
We analyzed every country we conquered always trying to discover their main motivations in ethnica. Many countries that consisted of small communities only cared about harvesting gold and building up their accounts to have strong server merges at Day 180. We capitalized on these situations and offered win-win deals with these nations where they would give us their regions, and we would give them supplies and allow them free control of their NPCs. Conquering the world was never going to be solely due to raw military power. Politics and economics were indispensable to mission success.

Farewell comrades.

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.
