Description:

Since 2000, USGovsim has been the top government simulation on the
Internet. Players across the nation compete in elections and on the
Congressional floor to reach their goals of holding office and to press
forward their ideas for improving the nation.

In this game you are a politician, thus your goal is not just to debate
and propose bills. Your goal is also to remind the people from the region
you represent why they should always vote for you. If this means switching
party lines, voting against what you truly believe in, or being somebody
you aren�t, then that is what you must do. It IS intriguing, and if you
join this game and vote for bills you like but your state does not, you
will rarely do well. Why? Because the American people want a charismatic
and upstanding representative of their collective ideals, they dont want
an extremist radical who wants to let everybody own a tank, or abolish the
government. This game is unique in its demand for players� accountability
to their constituents. This game is about true politics: The ones who can
adapt and moderate their issues win, the ones who cannot...well...they
don't survive...

USGovsim remains the only successful game to incorporate aspects of the
House of Representatives, the Senate, state Governorships, the Presidency,
Vice Presidency, and the Supreme Court. Other govsims either focus on only
one part of the government, or are a cheap knockoff of our creation. If
you�re looking for a game to play that is a full and fair representation
of the United States government, check out USGovsim.com!

And remember, just as in politics, anything can happen in USGovsim! We
look forward to seeing you play!
