1) SURGE OF HUF VALUE
First hard consequence is strengthening of Hungarian Forint. Their currency jumped from 0.0179 to over 0.028 which is over 50%. And it continues to grow in strength. Since I hold plenty of HUF I am delighted. Also most hated revoked Hungarian in game. HUF going strong impacted on product market.
2) Product price reduction accordance to HUF strength
Second direct consequence is downfall of prices. All major producton market had prices lowered. Specially Hungarian market. All product. Ok, it is kinda easy to control market when industry is state owned and state controls supply and is major employer. This is great for people who hold HUF alone. Good chance for future profits.
3) VAT increase
Along with removal of ref cc all major states decided to take all possible currency under their own. Selling barrier for domestic producers exploded. MAX was reached overnight and all prices were killed with TAX. This means that no one except state itself cannot place goods for sale and have profit in local currency.
4) INCOME TAX INCREASE
Hungary is my reference state. Started there and complained from very start that income taxes are HIGH. Not high little but absurdly high. Even pulled many laws in order to cut them down and make country attractive for investment. Long time income taxes were at 20%. Which means that base salary is reduced and 20% goes to state as worker clicks WORK button.
Now all salaries are cut down 50%. Consequence of this move is that state will remain as THE only employer. No one will give salary in local currency once they see that they must increase it to counter tax increase.
5) 100% black market
As aftermath 3 and 4 hit with full strength, all companies will reduce base salary to 1 local currency, or change state to adjust to currency owner has. That will help states get local currencies back, since no other players will keep currency beside GOLD currency. Almost all trade will move to DISCORD ALPHA TRADE channel. From time to time some player will spend rest of his currency.
States will succeed in plan to recover control of their currency. Price to pay will be some players will leave game.
Also many wil be happy since there is no more ref cc.
New players will have to quickly adapt to use DISCORD ALPHA TRADE channel or to move to some Military Unit in order to be able to survive and progress in present state grabbing environment.

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
