SimStates (formerly State of Nations) is a multiplayer politics simulator. Players assume the role of made-up countries, solving various issues and posting “roleplay stories” on 3rd party forums. There are 123,456 active users as of 2024, with over 6.9 million user-created SimStates since its release.
The platform is no stranger to controversy. On 7 November 2017, a scandal erupted surrounding Primo Franso Deitorr of Iverica. A string of online tabloid controversy hit main-stream. Leaked photos and false witness claims had apparently placed Deitorr at the heart of a sexual harassment claim. The posts were tracked by an investigatory NGO, their findings claiming that the leaked story originated from “memes” and “roleplaying games” posted on the websites 4Chance and State of Nations. The false story had originated from the player with the username “Stados Unidos dei Americá”, who had used Deitorr's photos and edited them into the identity of a fictional character “Kevan Spacer”, a man of dubious sexual identity and ethics.[1]
