It's time for an English guide as well since many players in Sweden aren't Swedes. Also it's a good tool for company owners, with company's abroad, to send their employees. Forgive me for my bad English tough. It's still in beta stage so please notify me about errors and such so i can improve the next version.

This is a small guide to help you get started Erepublik.

Other useful info:

2. Work & skills - There are three different professions or skills.
Weapons/food/gifts/moving tickets - skill manufacturing
Grain/wood/oil/iron - skill land
Housing/defencesystems/hospitals - skill constructions

When you chose a profession and works, you will improve your skill in that profession.

The higher your skill gets, the higher salary you can get.

Strength is a skill of its own and can only improve by training.
Strength in combination with your wellness, what weapon (if any) you use and your military rank will decide how much damage you can do in a fight.

3. Wellness (You can see your wellness by clicking on your avatar picture and then "Bio")
You start with 50% wellness, your wellness decides:
* How well you preform at work, how much you produce for your employer.
* Hos much damage you will do in a war
- Everything you do costs wellness, to train costs 1 wellness, works costs different depending on the Q of the company.

This is why you need food, if you are without food you will lose another 1 wellness per day until you die.
There are different kinds of food, but buy only Q1 in the beginning. The food will give you about +1 wellness/Q.
So if you eat Q2 food you will get +2 wellness per day.

Other ways to improve your wellness is to buy a house, houses will give you about +Q wellness per day.

You can also use gifts, you can receive +10 wellness every day, from gifts.
Gifts gives you +Q wellness but you need someone to give them to you.

As you can see your wellness is very important and your employer will always fire the ones with the least wellness first.
It can be hard to improve your wellness at first until you have skill enough to buy better food, gifts and a house.
But use the money you get at lvl6 to buy food and perhaps a house.

4. War
When you go to war you will loose 10-40 in wellness depending on hos you do.
Every day that you have fought you can visit the hospital, that will give you Qx wellness.

After a fight a link will appear "visit hospital", don't fight your wellness under 50. Then its better to fight again the next day and revisit the hospital.
Your goal is to have 90-100 in wellness at all time.

5. Politics
There are many different party's in Erepublik. You can see then under "My places" -> "Party". This to read in the media and see what party suits you.

Show your activity in your party and they will soon recognize you and perhaps you will represent your party in congress one day.

6. Businesses
If you are interested in starting your own company, there are many possibility's.
First of all you should start an organization as you can not worth in your own company otherwise.
In most company's you should have 10 employees in order to get maximum productivity, after you that leaves 9 more workers.

Different kinds of company's:

- Raw materials, you can start your own raw materials-company and sell your products to other company's.

There are a lot of different raw materials:
Wood
Grain
Oil
Iron
Diamonds

High/medium decides how much every worker will produce, high generates twice as mush raw materials and medium. So be careful to check which zone you start your company.

- Refined goods, if you start a manufacturing-company you have two things to consider. You need to buy raw materials and pay salary's. Therefore you will need a hight start capital if you start an construction company.

In manufacturing you can do:
Houses - Needs wood
Weapons - Needs iron
Food - Needs grain
Moving tickets - Needs oil
Gifts - Needs diamonds

So before you start any company make sure to research before you decide so you dont start a company that is overrepresented in the makes or which isn't lucrative.
Also consider that a lot of products is depending on wars, for example a weapons company will probably need much more money since you will need to produce weapons and maybe not sell any until the next war.
Hospitals and Defencesystems is not recommended since they are usually run by the government and are very hard to make profit from.

7. About Q (level on good/company's
Q decides how much of, or how good, a product is. If you eat Q1 food you get +1 wellness/day, Q2 gives you +2 etc.
Q i raw materials decides how much you get from one product, for example if you buy 100 Q3 grain, you will receive 300 grain in your company's storage.
For every Q that you upgrade a raw material company, the productions decreases with 10%, but you get products worth more.
For manufacturing company's you need Q times more raw materials for your product, a Q1 weapons need 5 iron when a Q3 needs 15 etc.
