Brief Explanation

The UAE was a guest at the 2011 G20 Summit in France. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs wanted to engage young Emiratis in the G20. The site was promoted with a banner campaign "Take your seat at the G20". It includes a face matching game for younger visitors; and the i20 game where older gamers can manage an imaginary national economy through a 20-year economic cycle. Funding can be raised through tax collection and raising industrial output; investments can be made in R&D, education, infrastructure, civil defense, etc. Events like earthquakes can cause setbacks if the economies are unprepared.
