Do I have to name my nation "Venezuela"?
No. Landing on this page seeds your Americas location and flavour, but the name on your flag is entirely yours — call it Venezuela, a historical variant, or something invented.
Which nations will I be playing against near Venezuela?
Your immediate Americas neighbourhood includes Saint Kitts and Nevis, Peru and Paraguay, plus every real player who has anchored nearby and the 8 AI powers that operate worldwide. Proximity matters for trade routes and for who notices when you mobilise.
What makes Venezuela a different game than a superpower?
Venezuela is OPEC founder with the world's largest oil reserves. That shapes which resources spawn near you, which alliances court you, and how much room you have to manoeuvre before a bigger Americas power decides you're worth attacking.
Can Venezuela realistically win?
Yes. Rankings are driven by population, treasury, technology and military — not by real-world GDP. A well-run Venezuela regularly out-earns a badly-run superpower, and the leaderboards reflect exactly that.
How do I start playing as Venezuela?
Create a free account, name your nation, then drop your capital on or near Caracas on the real-world map. From that moment Venezuela's starting treasury, citizens and resources are yours to run.
Is the Venezuela nation simulator free?
Completely. There's no paywall, no premium tier and no gameplay locked behind donations. Everything from espionage to alliances to the war room is open the moment you found your nation.
