What if the whole world declared war on Cameroon?

Cameroon survived, just: 0% of the world, down from 0.2%.

The year is 2026. One morning, the entire planet declares war on Cameroon. Nobody touches anything after that: 300 years of history, left to play out.

Of 133 countries put through the same fate, Cameroon did better than 56 of them.

Is this what would really happen?

No one can know. This is one run of a game engine that simulates every country on the real map: wars by temperament, armies from land and people, civil wars, golden ages. Same seed, same result, every time.

Can I try it myself?

Yes. Press Play this world: the same seed opens in your browser, free, and unfolds the same way until you change something.

Every page is a real run of the Play God on Earth engine (deterministic: same seed, same result). Historical facts are not implied; this is a game.
