Maryland doesn't compete with its cities — it presides over them as the federation head, the seat of the bloc, the way Washington DC once stood over America. It sets the bloc budget, fields the federal army (24,941 soldiers, 654 tanks) and holds a balanced posture. If you go to war, you can pay the Crown in SFC dollars to fight alongside you, provided it's backing three or fewer wars at that moment.

Questions about Rockville
What do I do first after claiming Rockville?
Set your tax rate, collect your first day's revenue, pick a government, and build infrastructure before you buy soldiers. Military upkeep sinks new nations faster than any enemy does.
Why claim Rockville instead of another state?
Location shapes trade proximity, who sees your mobilisations, and which coalition armies are cheap to reach. Rockville puts you in Maryland's wider interior, which is a different opening than the capital.
Is playing from Rockville free?
Yes, entirely. No download, no paywall, no premium tier — Rockville plays in your browser on desktop or phone.
Can two players claim Rockville?
Each player anchors their own nation, and multiple nations can trace their origin to Rockville. What separates you is what you build — population, treasury, technology and army.
Which states border Rockville?
Inside Maryland you'll be neighbours with Hagerstown, Ocean City and Salisbury. Any of them can be claimed by another real player, so the state you pick decides who's next door.
