Play as Lansing, Michigan
Lansing is a sovereign city-nation of Michigan — auto industry heartland, Great Lakes shoreline, northern forests. Michigan sits above it as the federation head, the Crown of the bloc, the way Washington DC once stood over America. Lansing runs its own treasury, its own resources, and it offers citizenship to anyone who asks. Claim it, found your nation, and your capital lands on the real coordinates of Lansing.

Apply for CitizenshipMichigan is the Crown
Michigan 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 (22,421 soldiers, 555 tanks) and holds a defensive 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 Lansing
Can two players claim Lansing?
Each player anchors their own nation, and multiple nations can trace their origin to Lansing. What separates you is what you build — population, treasury, technology and army.
Is playing from Lansing free?
Yes, entirely. No download, no paywall, no premium tier — Lansing plays in your browser on desktop or phone.
Which states border Lansing?
Inside Michigan you'll be neighbours with Ann Arbor, Flint and Grand Rapids. Any of them can be claimed by another real player, so the state you pick decides who's next door.
Can Michigan help me in a war from Lansing?
Yes, for SFC dollars. Michigan will join your side while it's backing 3 wars or fewer, which makes early declarations cheaper to support than late ones.
Why claim Lansing instead of another state?
Location shapes trade proximity, who sees your mobilisations, and which coalition armies are cheap to reach. Lansing puts you in Michigan's seat of power, which is a different opening than the capital.
