Delivering the Word!

-Seraph-

It is easy to judge me.

Hello, I am the absolute ruler of the "Holy Empire of -Seraph-", known as the Queen of Seraph, Jophiel. I am forewarning everybody that the things I am about to tell you will probably offend you and likely bring you to draw arms against me. But know, I do not fear you; for God will smite my enemies with a thunderous clap and will force them to bow before me in fear.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The province of Seraph is a beautiful, serene state. The protecting wilderness provides a stunning background to an already magical city. The building designs of it can be compared to the ancient Roman and Greek designs. While the outershells of those buildings look like nothing more than granite, you'd be sorely mistaken. They are made of a special type of stone, by the grace of God, that was discovered through human error and blessed my the Lord of Heaven's Armies. The stone, which is fined miles to the east of the walls of Seraph, is both beautiful and bullet proof. Another example of how God has provided for us.

The population of Seraph is mixed by age, race, creed and even religious practices. Everyone, who resides in the city during the day, wears ancient style togas and sandals in order to eliminate the unneccesary stress that fashion conflicts often present. The labor workforce wear animal skined uniforms and boots based on their practiced trade. You will find the simplicity of our fashion is carried over through much of our ways of life.

The official language is Latin. The currency is the Seraphim and our national animal is the Lion.

I would go more depth of daily life in Seraph, but that is another letter for another day. I am here to talk about politics, am I not?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am looked upon as a Corrupt Dictator, but I suppose history will look differently upon me like Jesus Christ is viewed differently than his present. It's the difference between 'war hero' or 'ruthless invader'.

A monarch set up for Seraph is in place. There may be other seats in government but it is mostly for show. I, the queen, have absolute rule over the nation and decide what is best for my people.

The stereotype for 'dictators', seems to be that all they care about is power and money. Let me assure you that none of those are a high priority are on my list. I have the welfare of my people in mind when I ask them to take Jesus Christ as their savior; when I go to war to add sinful nations to Seraph in order to save them from that sin; and even when I ask of 25% of their earnings, yearly. I only wish for my people to lead their lives to God and follow His commandments.

The laws of the nation are very simple indeed. The ten commandments are the law, and I am the final judge. (I will go more in detail about this in the daily life letter of Seraph.

I take a lot of critisicisim for my tactical aggressiveness when using my military. Again, this is a great way to ensure economic stability and ensure that conquered nations bow to the will of God. For His will is the only one that matters.

This concludes the politcal report of Seraph. I will go into much detail in future letters.

OOC: If i could get feedy on this...I'd be very grateful :)
