Welcome to eRepublik and welcome to the eUS! The focus of these articles is to give you access to both information and resources that can help make your first few weeks in the game easier and more enjoyable.

The first thing you should know is that the United States has an official message board outside of the game. On this you will find a section called "Welcoming Committee" where you can ask any questions that you have and get help if you should need it. This is also where a large portion of our community meets to discuss current events in the game, game mechanics, and just talk in general. You can these forums by clicking this link: The official United States Forum for eRepublik.

Another important place you can check for information is the eRepublik Wikipedia site. You can find this here: eRepublik Wikipedia. On that site, you will find a large part of the information you will need to learn how to play the game. A few key articles from the Wikipedia are:
Experience and Features
Work
Food
Train
Fight

These will teach you the basics of the game and help you to get off on the right foot.

You should also know that the eUS government has programs that can help you should you need it.
