Shanda Interactive Entertainment Limited, a popular Chinese media company, will release the Chinese version on October 19th.

Players are given the task of managing an underdeveloped nation and providing for its people by raising money and performing charitable work. Since the first release in April 2005, over four and a half million people have downloaded the game.
