Might want to read up on the ELIZA effect, I don't think everyone will have the mental willpower to avoid that scenario.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the League of Nations largely the brainchild of Woodrow Wilson, US president during WW1?

It was structurally different to the UN we know today, but it was still pushed forward by a US president.

I've seen website-based examples (similar to CandyBox2, back when that existed), but not a standalone game.

I don't think it's a bad thing, though. It's not like it's required, and gamification may help the average user's knowledge.

I'm currently hosed by the fact that I am in the middle of completing my Electrical Engineeing degree (approx. 2 years left), and I don't believe my credits would be transferable to an institution across the Atlantic (never mind the cost, shudder), so I can't even think about escaping until at least 2027.

If there's a better way forward so I can safely leave the nation and still achieve my degree, I'm all ears, but at least to me it seems my hands are a bit tied.
