This world is pretty scary, isn’t it? There are hundreds of billions of people, tens of thousands of countries, hundreds of different ethnicities. Every day, there are dozens of new wars, hundreds of rebellions, handfuls of regime change, dozens of surgical strikes, at least one government ordained genocide, and who knows how many economic blockades. Wouldn’t it be nice to get away from it all?

Now you can! Come to Alexia, Jewel of the third world!

(An advertisement in democratic first world countries, over radio and television and on the World Wide Web in all countries)


The Alexian Empire, a nation of some odd billion.

Founded several years ago, reuniting an empire that existed a hundred odd years ago.

Ruled by self appointed “Peoples Monarch” Alexander Thompson the I, who lives in his palace up in Alex City (formerly Central City)

Being “The Peoples Monarch Chosen By The People” the emperor rules unimpeded, free to “serve his people without question or interference by opportunists.”

You get the jist of it.

The Alexian Empire is a wonderful tourist destination. It has everything you could want. Let me run down the tourists hot spots for you.

Alex City: The Capital and the emperor’s hometown, Alex city was founded hundreds of years ago by some wandering tribe or another.

Before the Re-unification, it was the capital of the Greater Nationian Republic.

After the re-unification, it was made capital of the whole people’s empire, and renamed Alex City.

It has recently experienced rapid growth, and has an approximate population of forty million inhabitants.

It is mostly a maze of sprawling tenements, highrises and overcrowded bungalows, intervened by grand markets. The streets share vehicle and pedestrian traffic, and you can expect to go on average 50km/h.

The average day:

The Tourist neighbhourhoods are a very nice place, with something for everyone. It is full of nice and clean apartements that house good honest workers.

There is a grand range of hotels, from the most expensive and fancy to the conveniently priced econo-suits.

A notable hotel is The Royal House, a hotel that is owned in part by the government, but built and run by the multi millionaire Fudail Stonechild.

This is considered to be the best privately owned hotel in the country.

The Royal House is also home to Café Royal, the most beautiful teahouse in the world.

The tourist district is filled with lovely shops and tea houses. The streets are very clean.

There are dozens museums, keep in pristine order and with the greatest accuracy by the government.

The glorious meuseum of history charters the Alexian empire all the way back till the dawn of time, through the emperialist revolution and the re-unification of the republics until this very day.

There is a swinging nightlife in the tourist district aswell. After dark, the bars and nighclubs open there doors. From the finest drinking establishments to the slumiest bars and strip walkways, the tourists district has got it all. Cabarets, raver clubs, Cheers, it’s all there.

Things to See:

The Casino:

In the east end of the tourist district is the Casino RiceTown, a massive structure of glass and concrete with manicured lawns, valet parking, and the like. There is also a hotel built into the top floors. It is rumoured to be based on the Street King’s Casino, built in the north end of the south side.

On the ground, a long bar is open to the gamblers, spanning more than a hundred feet, with ample bartenders and every drink imaginable.

On the gambling floor, a maze of slot machines greets you upon entering.

On the second floor is the card games. Craps, poker, every possible card game you could imagine.

Also on this flour is the lottery, with various prises and good odds of at least winning a free ticket, of course, the Alexian casino game of choice, roulette.

The third floor is reserved for the casino staff. On to the fourth.

The fourth floor is truly a wonder. A second bar, much like the first, has a long bar. This floor, unlike the first and second, has a very high up roof. The north wall is entirely made up of thick glass panels. From this vantage point, you can see the racetrack. The finest horses and jockeys come hear to compete, and sometimes even the semi-finals of the national championships are held here.

All the horse races can be bet on at the betting parlor, also on the fourth floor.

There is also a beautifull restaurant, which serves a large variety of wonderfull dishes.



(And I will post more at some other time.)

(Please make an embassy, as we will not accept tourists from places were we don’t have formal relations.)

My computer died.

I think it's a bit late for me to join in.

Sorry, but I don't think I can do it anymore.

However, this is really not the place to bring it up.
Alexias

In that case, then certainly.

But it's still not the best place to bring it up.

Freebesteria, might I ask what it is you are doing?

OOC> might I remind my friend, Alexias, that we have exchanged embassies, and are therefore allies? I don't want to have to fire on you.

Man, that makes no sense.

Just because you have an embassy doesn't mean your an ally.

The United States had a Soviet Embassy, and vice versa.

I'm not allied with even half the people with whom I have embassies.


However, Alexias and Xeraph are in fact very close allies, you right about that.

OOC> your'e correct on both counts.....thanks for remaining allied to Xeraph...the Emperor does not forget......

Wait a minute, wait a minute. On the signup thread, Alexias, you agreed to help me. You said it was okay. How about we work up a compromise? Alexias, you could be kind of a double agent thing. Or you could still be on my side, but not attack Xeraph. Or you could break your alliance with Xeraph. Or you could not join in at all. Take your pick.

OOC> I would suggest that Alexias use his puppet, who just happens to be a thorn in his side anyway, to fulfil his obligations to Jaghur. Xeraph won't have any problem attacking a troublemaker who has had a history of giving my staunch ally a hard time........ ;)

I don't have any puppets.

I find puppet's excedingly cheap and unfair.

Jaghur, sorry, I had forgotten that we were both involved in this game.

I'm sure I could figure something out.

Don't worry, It'll all be cleared up in do time.

However, please, please, not in this thread, if you please.

Damned and blast.

K. Sounds good.

I'll write something up.

In the meantime, perhaps just glance at the links to give you an idea.


I'll be in your war soon.

I'll need a few more minutes though.

OOC> don't be concerned about the Jaghur invasion thing. It's about to be over. We worked it out.
Alexias

Oh.

Well, if you need me, I'm around.



But please, please, for the love of god, not in here.


In fact, if you could just delete all irrelavent posts, guys, I would appreciate it.

Thanks.
