West Virginia 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 (105,383 soldiers, 3,857 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 Martinsburg
Why claim Martinsburg instead of another state?
Location shapes trade proximity, who sees your mobilisations, and which coalition armies are cheap to reach. Martinsburg puts you in West Virginia's wider interior, which is a different opening than the capital.
Is playing from Martinsburg free?
Yes, entirely. No download, no paywall, no premium tier — Martinsburg plays in your browser on desktop or phone.
Can two players claim Martinsburg?
Each player anchors their own nation, and multiple nations can trace their origin to Martinsburg. What separates you is what you build — population, treasury, technology and army.
What do I do first after claiming Martinsburg?
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 Martinsburg?
Inside West Virginia you'll be neighbours with Morgantown, Huntington and Parkersburg. Any of them can be claimed by another real player, so the state you pick decides who's next door.
