Alpha Nation is a turn based strategy war game where you build a country from 200 acres of empty land into a superpower — then defend it against everyone else trying to do the same. BUILD AN ECONOMY Spend turns constructing enterprise zones, residences, industrial complexes, military bases, research labs, farms and oil rigs. Explore for new land, set your tax rate and industry ratios, and choose a government — monarchy, democracy, republic, theocracy, communism, dictatorship, tyranny or fascism. RAISE AN ARMY Troops, jets, turrets, tanks and spies. Buy from the private market or trade with real players on the public market. Run spy operations to see what a rival is hiding before you commit to a strike. GO TO WAR Hit other countries to capture land, seize buildings and steal cash and food. Declare war, negotiate peace, or launch missiles when diplomacy fails. Every attack on the server is logged publicly — including the ones against you. READ THE BATTLEFIELD A live server-wide map of who is hitting who, with strike volumes, land captured, cash stolen and the hottest war of the moment. Know where the fighting is before you pick a fight. FORM CLANS AND ALLIANCES Join a clan, coordinate targets, and send foreign aid to allies under pressure. Clan rankings track combined networth, so your standing depends on the people you fight beside. New countries start under protection, so you have time to build before anyone can touch you.
