The Oppressive Church has decided to open it's boarders for Tourism, in hopes that it may boost the Economy. This official Brochure published by the Church shows many of the majestic scenes of the beautiful nation.

Above we see the Archbishop's residency. Built in 1870, in baroque style, this somewhat quaint building is complemented by an array of flora and a pond centered in front of the building. It is located on the outskirts of TOC's capital, Saint Paul's.

The spire of Saint John the Baptist, in the city of Saint John's. This cathedral was the first large Cathedral built in the country, in 1747, this massive structure burned partially to the ground in 1923 along with nearly 20% of the city. But the spire survived, and the Cathedral was rebuilt. The spire, towering into the sky, above the flames, and above the ruins after the fire made it an enduring symbol of hope and strength.

An old photograph of the Cathedral of Saint Elizabeth's, in the city of Saint John's. The Cathedral burned to the ground just months ago during the country's time of Anarchy. Today, all that is left is a charred stone skeleton, but the stone skeleton is quite interesting in itself. The Cathedral was built in 1807.

This is the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity, in the city of Saint Paul's. It was built in 1824, and has been the administrative center of the church and country since 1903. The country is literally ruled from within it's stain glass windows and stone walls.

The Mission of Saint Anne, this Cathedral was the first Cathedral built by the Catholic Missionaries who came to the area in the 1720s. It is near the city of Catholic Port, the city where Catholic Missionaries first landed. Built in Tuscan style, with many spires, it's somewhat bazaar looking.

The new Resort Hotel Heaven on Earth blends well into TOC's naturally tropical climate. It has five swimming pools, one indoors, three spas, two workout centers, a fully stocked four star restaurant, and cheap accommodations. Having capacity for over 2,000 visitors at once, and it's own private air port and heli-pad, this multimillion dollar complex promisees all anyone could want. Only draw back is that it's hours away from any major city.

We hope this brief introduction to TOC brings in many tourists to the Tropical climate during this winter season. We'll add more beautiful scenes of TOC later.

Personally, I don't like religious states... thanks for the photographic guide to targets that I can use when it comes time for us to destroy you.

Have any aerial photos or government building plans we could have too?

Now more pictures from beautiful TOC!

The Antil Lighthouse, built in 1909 near the city of Saint Andrew's, it's a prominent tourist destination.

Sunset, near the small river town of Trinity, this sunset has been voted best in the country, and has inspired many people to travel to the otherwise insignificant town.

A view of the old town district of Saint Andrew's. That's the Cathedral of Heavenly Might dominating the picture.

The Mission of Saint Gabriel's is anything but. It's actually another resort hotel, and located near the Mountain of Saint Gabriel's.

Largest home in TOC, belonging to the now deceased Merchant Shipping Tycoon Frederick Von Hiderbilt, born in Austria in 1845, he made his Merchant empire in the Indian Ocean an settled in TOC. He died in 1916. The Mansion is now a Museum, it is on the outskirts of the city of Serenity.

The city of Dander on the Northern Coast. That's the Church of the Faithful, which is the domed church on the left, with the spire. The large building on the right is a concert hall.

Perhaps even more pictures later!

Impressive, though no match for us. We will spare you as we have another problem elsewhere.

I'm not even trying to convert anyone, I just want tourists to boost the Economy!

You spelled oppressive wrong, TOC.

No duh... Thanks for your remarkable talent of observation...

Oh, don't worry. If you want, I'll send in the mari... I mean, Tourists. Yeah. What would you reccomend the Roanian Tourists see?

So you purposely mispelled it, like the music group Korn?

Evil! *Points at Roania*

Look, hows-about this Roania... I give you access to my nation, as you obviously desprately want it for something. You have full access to all army bases, air strips, everything. But instead of annexing me, I stay self governed? Then your military has a launching piont in the Indian Ocean, and I don't have to worry about you threatening me anymore... But if you're just going to annex me after accepting this deal, like last time, then forget it...

Say you'll rejoin the Roman Catholic church, and you have a deal.

We are the Roman Catholic Church... Well, an Official branch that is actually more moral then the Roman Catholic Church itself!

And no WoMD weapons near my country, I don't want enviromental disasters on my hands... Or air strikes from your enemies...

We have no weapons of mass destruction.

Just weapons of obliteration, and civilian death. ((WO, WCD))

If someone wants to crush this guy, just TG me for a few ships to borrow. You won't need many.

If anyone lays a finger on TOC, they'll have a painful visit from the REF (Raysian Extranational Force) that will teach you to never mess with other religions ever again. Even if this guys church is screwed up, he is still innocent as far as we know.

So lay off, or we lay the smackdown. Got it?

:)

We gotcho back.

Now back to TOC Tourism!

Ok, we will. You got lucky.

Anyway, on-topic... why do your churches look so.... gothic and creepy? :P

Is there any other way a Church can look?

Tourism must be working already, my economy rose from Weak, to Fragile... Wait, is Fragile below weak? :?

Is there any other way a Church can look?...yeah?

I was just thinking, the whole creepy approach isn't really inviting of a good spirit... it makes it look like someone inside is about to beat you with a ruler... lol

Of course we wont beat you with rulers inside our Cathedrals! That's reserved for our schools...

I personally think the Gothic Cathedrals in the Tropical Climate is interesting.. But yeah, the ones I chose are kinda creepy, expecially Saint Elizabeth's... Nightmares...

This one is neat!
