What is Terra Engine?
Terra Engine is a geopolitical simulation game that recreates real-world dynamics using historical data, AI systems and detailed political mechanics.
Explore and understand the mechanisms shaping our world through strategic gameplay and simulation.
Development
I'm Jérémy, a French developer combining my passion for software engineering and geopolitics.
I develop this project in my spare time to analyze and understand current global dynamics.

Main features
Comprehensive database spanning from 2000 to 2024: 200 countries, 3,000 territories and cities, 1,000 key figures, and 40,000 historical records
Intuitive web-like interface with powerful features: search engine, data visualization, keyboard shortcuts, and dynamic map overlays
Optional historical mode that ensures events unfold as they did in reality, while allowing for alternate history scenarios when disabled
Optional phone call system with simulation characters. Chat naturally with world actors and perform actions through conversations using a language model.
Detailed political simulation with various government types, elections, successions, and power dynamics between heads of state and government
Diplomatic system with opinion modifiers, international relations, and various diplomatic actions between countries and leaders
Access current global news directly within Terra Engine. Browse worldwide events and interact with highlighted entities mentioned in the news.
Simulation of historical and dynamic natural disasters: earthquakes, tropical cyclones, volcanic eruptions. Damage system based on hexagonal grid cells
Event system with conditional triggers and branching choices that shape the course of history
Every person in the simulation is an autonomous AI agent with their own agenda, responding to diplomatic, political, and global events
Camera automation tools to control viewpoints and simulation speed, enabling the creation of video recordings
Extend the simulation with mods: add new languages, events, properties and more. Already available in English and French
