  1. Ahlen wasahlen fi MidanTahrir! Welcome to Tahrir Square

  2. The date is February 2nd, 2011: protests have been ongoing in Egypt for a week • For Jordan and Saudi Arabia • Will you ignore them? Aid the government? Push for reform? • For the US: • Will you pressure Mubarak to step down? • The Egyptian government and army: • What will you do to retain power? And for the army, how loyal are you, and to whom? • For the opposition: • How committed are you? Will you use violence? Or will you stick to peaceful methods?

  3. There will be five 10 minute rounds. • During each round, you must each make a couple of choices, as indicated on your information sheets. • The decisions you make will effect what everyone else does, in one way or another. • All of the players have certain private information about their own incentives, preference, and what they will be forced to do under what circumstances. • Civil war, for the purposes of this simulation, is defined as two consecutive rounds in which both protesters and the army use violence • If Mubarak does step down by the end of the fifth round, we will hold elections. Any of the Egyptian players can run in them • NOTE: You DO NOT have to respond exactly the way the real actors did. You can try different things, or try the same things.
