Nations is a real time strategy game focused on ruling a country through the history. The game provides a range of mechanics, such as economy, industry, society and wide lawmaking. You decide whether you focus on internal development of your state, or expending its territories – or maybe both of these things simultaneously.

You must provide your people with food, consumer goods, and a sense of safety, otherwise your state shall begin to collapse. Remember, that one destructive factor may cause another. Establish laws, construct buildings and manage resources in order to maintain your country stable and prosperous. Build up your military and expand to gain influence – but be careful who you attack. Some nations may be stronger than they seem. Some of them may be danger to you – conduct diplomacy and make alliances to secure your borders. Send your agents and organize covert actions to sabotage development of your enemy, or build up influence in their land. You embrace your goals and you decide how to achieve them.

The game is in early access, which means that new mechanics will be added, and some of already existing will be expanded. It is very flexible and meant to be modder friendly. Right now you can create your own nations, cultures and scenarios using simple text and graphic editors. In future support for modders is going to be expanded and an official, easy to use editor is to be added.
