New Homeschool Curriculum
What if your kid learned how a real economy works by running one?
Homeschool Nations
Turn your child into a head of state — one decision at a time.
What if homeschooling meant more than worksheets and textbooks? Homeschool Nations turns SFC Nations into a complete civics, economics, and geography curriculum for students ages 10–16. Your child will found a nation, manage a treasury, form alliances, and respond to crises — all while mastering the same concepts they'd otherwise meet in a classroom.
About the Book
Homeschool Nations is not another dry civics workbook. It is a semester-long role-playing experience built around the same decision engine that powers SFC Nations, the free browser game where players build and run their own countries.
Over twelve chapters, your student steps into the shoes of a head of state. They will choose a form of government, draw borders, write a constitution, manage a treasury, negotiate alliances, respond to natural disasters, and decide whether to invest in schools, armies, or infrastructure. Every lesson connects to a real concept: separation of powers, supply and demand, taxation, trade deficits, diplomacy, national identity, and the hard truth that every budget choice has a tradeoff.
The book is written for homeschool families. Chapters are designed to be completed in 30–45 minutes, with a reading section, a hands-on mission, a workbook reflection, and discussion questions for the dinner table. The parent answer key explains the “why” behind each mission, so you can teach with confidence even if you have never studied economics.
By the end of the semester, your child will not just know what a president or parliament does. They will understand why nations rise, why they struggle, and what it actually takes to lead one.
A semester of learning disguised as running a country
Most homeschool civics programs hand kids a textbook and ask them to memorize branches of government. Homeschool Nations hands them a nation. Every lesson is a decision: set taxes, choose allies, respond to a natural disaster, invest in technology, or defend a border. The concepts stick because the consequences are theirs.
