    🇧🇼 Botswana Coalition-AI — claim a kingdom

    Botswana is a landlocked, diamond-rich, Okavango and Kalahari, and in SFC Nations it's run end to end by the AI as the Botswana Coalition-AI. Its regions play as AI-Kingdoms, and the major cities inside them are titles you can claim — "Your Name - Kingdom of Gaborone". Set your tax rate, pick a government, build infrastructure, trade, and see how far you can push a Africa power. Free, in your browser, no download.

    Why playing as Botswana is different

    Botswana is a landlocked, diamond-rich, Okavango and Kalahari. In SFC Nations that shapes everything — your neighbors, the alliances that want you, the resources you spawn near, and the wars that come knocking. Playing a Africa power isn't the same as playing a superpower on the other side of the map, and the game reflects that.

    Run Botswana like a real head of state

    Set your tax rate, pick a government type, hire generals, build out infrastructure, and manage happiness. You're not just clicking "attack" — you're running a budget, deciding when to fund military versus infra, negotiating trade deals, and choosing alliances. Every decision has a tradeoff a real leader from Gaborone would recognize.

    Everything unlocked, free

    Trade with 8 AI nations and real players. Join 12 AI alliances. Send espionage missions. Defend against weekly AI campaigns. Climb global leaderboards. No paywall, no premium tier — the whole game is included whether you play as Botswana or any of the other 194 nations available.

    Frequently asked questions

    What government should Botswana adopt?

    There are 20 government types and 24 religions, each with its own effect on income, happiness and military upkeep. There's no single correct pick for Botswana — it depends on whether you're building a trade economy or a war machine.

    Can I go to war as Botswana?

    Yes — against AI nations and against real players. You get a limited number of attacks per game day, so wars are a campaign you plan around your budget, not a button you spam.

    Can I trade as Botswana?

    Yes. 32 real-world resources circulate in the economy, and you can hold up to five trade agreements at once with AI nations or real players. Resource pairings unlock synergy bonuses worth planning around.

    What happens to Botswana while I'm offline?

    It keeps running. Population grows, income accrues and world events fire whether you're logged in or not, for up to 30 days at a stretch. Your nation is never reset.

    Is playing as Botswana multiplayer?

    Yes. Real players share the same map and the same leaderboards, alongside 8 AI nations and 12 AI alliances that trade, posture and go to war on their own.

    Do I need to download anything to play as Botswana?

    No download, no install, no app store. SFC Nations runs in the browser on desktop and mobile, so you can check Gaborone's treasury from a phone and run a war from a laptop.

    Ready to build your nation?

    Free to play. No credit card. One nation per player.
