    Play as California

    California is largest economy in the coalition, tech, film, agriculture, ports. Inside the United States Coalition it's a sovereign, fully AI-run country with its own treasury, army and war record. You don't take it over — you claim one of its 10 cities as your home state and grow your own nation from there.

    Hiring California in a war

    The coalition operates on its own. When you're at war you can open the Coalition War Aid panel and pay California in SFC dollars to commit its forces to your side. It will only accept if it's currently aiding 3 or fewer wars — past that, its army is spoken for and you'll need another backer.

    FAQ

    Can I ever take over California itself?

    No. Coalition countries are permanent AI states. Your route to power is building a nation inside one and out-growing everyone around you, not conquering the AI government.

    What is California good at?

    California is largest economy in the coalition, tech, film, agriculture, ports. That shapes the economy around Sacramento and the kinds of pressure the AI applies to its region — worth reading before you decide where to plant your capital.

    Is playing in California free?

    Yes. Every coalition country, every city page and every game system is free in the browser. Nothing about California is behind a paywall.

    Does joining California lock me into the coalition?

    Your home state anchors your capital inside California, but your diplomacy stays your own. You can ally with world nations outside the United States Coalition and still hire coalition armies when it suits you.
