Play as Charlotte, North Carolina
Charlotte is a sovereign city-nation of North Carolina — research triangle, banking hub, Appalachian to Outer Banks. North Carolina sits above it as the federation head, the Crown of the bloc, the way Washington DC once stood over America. Charlotte 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 Charlotte.

North Carolina 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 (84,269 soldiers, 3,026 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 Charlotte
Why claim Charlotte instead of another state?
Location shapes trade proximity, who sees your mobilisations, and which coalition armies are cheap to reach. Charlotte puts you in North Carolina's wider interior, which is a different opening than the capital.
Is playing from Charlotte free?
Yes, entirely. No download, no paywall, no premium tier — Charlotte plays in your browser on desktop or phone.
Can two players claim Charlotte?
Each player anchors their own nation, and multiple nations can trace their origin to Charlotte. What separates you is what you build — population, treasury, technology and army.
What do I do first after claiming Charlotte?
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.
Which states border Charlotte?
Inside North Carolina you'll be neighbours with Greensboro, Durham and Raleigh. Any of them can be claimed by another real player, so the state you pick decides who's next door.
