I understand if some of you have questions regarding the Golden Throne, and so consequently, I open myself to you. Ask all you want, and about anything; economy, military, personal life, etc. This is both in character and out of character.
Cool. Ask away!

Recently Asked Questions
1] What certain political views does the Golden Throne have ascertaining economy?
Actually, there's a really interesting role play going on in NationStates which sort of highlights the Golden Throne's economic policies, which can be found here (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=442563); but it's very long.
Regardless, the Empire is purely capitalist, and it believes in a no barrier trade system, except if barriers are imposed upon the Empire. It is to say, it trades with the willing, and fights against the unwilling. However, unlike other pure capitalists, the Empire also has a beauracracy to ensure the protection of the not so powerful - meaning, of the middle class and the low class. It makes sure that the powerful within the Empire's economy cannot suck what they need from those who cannot fight back.
In retrospect, the Order, which is what that thread deals with, wants to establish a full capitalism in Guffingford, ensuring that the poor - or most of the population - will remain poor; the IINSA [the Empire's intelligence service] is trying to make sure that that doesn't happen.
2] What is the current reaction to placing or recieving trade embargoes?
I don't think I have ever been embargoed in any way, shape, or form. However, my reaction to it would be to immediately break the embargo, either through diplomatics, or out right conflict. The Empire has a zero tolerance rate against those who attempt to restrict its expansion, either through land, or through the economy.
3] What is more devastating: Nuclear, Ballistic, or Chemical Weaponry?
Would really depend on what was hit. For me a nuclear attack would be much more devastating, because unlike the latter two choices, a nuclear armament cannot be curtailed by technological defenses if it manages to hit. For example, a nuclear weapon in Fedala would very well mean the deaths of over thirty million people, out of a megalopolis of over two hundred million.
4] In the Golden Empire, is there such a thing as a Medevac Zeppelin?
Unfortunately, no. The Empire's medical facilities are funded by the local government, not by the central government, however, most of our medical services are extremely well crafted, and put priority in emergency response technology, including a nation wide global positioning system, phone call tracking, and more of the such.
5]Is the Golden Throne really gold, or just painted gold, or gold-leafed?
The Golden Throne itself, where Fedor sits on, is made of not so pure gold, because apparently pure gold doesn't make very solid things. But, it's really, really expensive, and you would get grand theft if you stole it; even if you're really cool.
Cool. Ask away!
