    Maryland is the Crown

    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 Silver Spring

    Can two players claim Silver Spring?

    Each player anchors their own nation, and multiple nations can trace their origin to Silver Spring. What separates you is what you build — population, treasury, technology and army.

    Which states border Silver Spring?

    Inside Maryland you'll be neighbours with Ocean City, Rockville and Hagerstown. Any of them can be claimed by another real player, so the state you pick decides who's next door.

    Is playing from Silver Spring free?

    Yes, entirely. No download, no paywall, no premium tier — Silver Spring plays in your browser on desktop or phone.

    Can Maryland help me in a war from Silver Spring?

    Yes, for SFC dollars. Maryland will join your side while it's backing 3 wars or fewer, which makes early declarations cheaper to support than late ones.

    Why claim Silver Spring instead of another state?

    Location shapes trade proximity, who sees your mobilisations, and which coalition armies are cheap to reach. Silver Spring puts you in Maryland's wider interior, which is a different opening than the capital.
