If you like simulations but didn't have the best experience available, it is understandable if you are cautious about the merger.
With the merger comes the best parts of each unique SIM with Geocities as the simulation backend platform. Yahoo owns Geocities so we still have the parent corporation Terms of Service and user agreements. Virtual Nation combines the best of each in a whole greater than the sum of the parts. As a simulation, Virtual Nation members consider the nation to be a Micro-Nation of which many such micronations have been popular.
You may notice that VirtualAmerica is not one of the SIMs merging into the whole and that is ok with us in the Spirit of Competition let's see who has the best simulation! We also have no relationship with Field of Dreams.
