What is Terra Engine?
Terra Engine is a geopolitical simulator that recreates global dynamics using real historical data and in-depth modeling of international mechanisms, from diplomacy to environmental phenomena.
This project born from my passion for software engineering and geopolitics aims to create an immersive experience to understand the mechanisms shaping our world.
