“ It is foolish to not to fear the unknown …one can never know if the unknown would be your friend or your foe.. Never underestimate the unknown.” Quote from Dr. Maxwell
Intro: The new dominion of Nova Atlantis of full of diverse and complex problems and background….a place filled with organize crime that has to been yet to be purged….such a wonderful place for the Dune Empress to vested, isn’t it? Yet there were secrets that lay in Nova Atlantis, that need to reveal to the Empress for the stake of the future.. so began the purge of the organize crime for Nova Atlantis..
At the Sultan Palace, Istanbul
The Sultan was in meeting with his two personal Accountants (An Armenian and a Jew) , they were reviewing and revaluating the Sultan financial assets for his will and for the next major tax cycle. Doing these revaluating of assets were painstaking process, which could last weeks, depending on the size of your assets…it was a real pain for the wealthy to go thought this process, it was why the Sultan kept putting off his revaluation in till the last the minute, before the taxation collection board deadline for an update on all financial assets of the Sultan was up. For most of the time the Sultan was locked up in his office with his accountants, since it was the Pax Al Muslimeenia , the Sultan had a lot of free time, since the nation was running on cruise control so to speak. With this free time…he had to do this blast accounting that he hated with passion, but he had no choice to get around to it and do it for once.
With the Sultan busy with handling financial and running the affairs of the government. He had little time to visit the many regions of the Khailfah, he had to appoint number of his ministers to visited these regions on his behalf. Yet he had one more region to visted..it was the dominion of Nova Atlantis and he had to appoint someone within his family, who he trusted to go on a mission to that dominion.
The Sultan had called his wife Dune Empress of the Imperium Roxelane Lisowska bin Bashir (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/EvaLongoriaX.jpg) to see him for an important meeting, she walk down the long hallways of the Palace, to reach the Sultan office. When she reach office, she went the front desk, the was Sultan Secretary Anna Akhmatova (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/5b30c738.jpg), who busy organizing the her desk and set up the Sultan meeting schedule. Roxelane just walk up to her and began to speak
“Anna, how you doing?”said the Empress
“I am just doing well, Roxelane. I see you’re here for meeting with your husband?” ask Secretary Anna
They were both on a first name bases
“Yes, I am here to see my Husband…are those accountants gone yet?”ask the Empress
“Oh.,those blast accountants…been here since like seven o’clock in the morning…since its like twelve they are on break for an hour.. So Sultan is enjoying his break…. watch Antioch vs. Istanbul…in the regional football (soccer) league..” reply Secretary Anna
“Ah…his favorite team is on eh…this should be fun…doing meeting while his hometown Antioch vs. the top team in the league, Istanbul…. fun ,fun ..”Remark Roxelane, then she said good bye to the Secretary and went in the office
Sultan Suleiman Al Bashir II ( http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/73.jpg ) was watching the Football game on his plasma screen, he was shouting in Ottoman Turkish the following
“ Come on, come on…its tire one to one…come on Antioch ..make this goal and I’ll be happy man tonight!” said the Sultan, he stuck into the game and didn’t notice Roxelane entering the office, she just took a seat in one of his leather seats and just watch him..
Then the game reach it climax, and Antioch made the game wining goal!, The Sultan made little victory dance for hometown team of Antioch , then he realize his wife was on the room and he quickly turn off the T.V.
“ How long you have been here?” He asked Roxelane
“Long enough to see that scene of your cheering for your home and that victory dance of yours…I am still having a hard time not laughing..” Reply Roxelane, then she starts to laugh
“Yeah, yeah…” remake The Sultan who roll his eyes
“What’s so important for you to call me in for a meeting?” Asked Roxelane
“Well my dear, I have an key assignment for you….I need you to go Nova Atlantis for a state visited…ever since they became a dominion..its one of my duties to go over their and tour of their major cites, since I can’t find the time to go with these important matters and I am going to ask you to go to Nova Atlantis on a state visited.” Said the Sultan
She took a minute to let it sink in and reply “I’ll do it…but why me?” she asked
“Because Sophia is busy meeting the state banking companies and Haziqah also to busy with meeting the state mining companies and as for me… it’s the bloody accounting and soon I have meet the leading housing building companies and try to get them to increase production of new homes…e bay.” Said the Sultan
“ I get the point..so who is coming with me…I know the kids can’t..do to school and etc..” She asked
“Well, I assign a number of people to come with you, like your uncle Dr. Hasan Salihamidžić, he is coming along to see if he can expand his medical company in the new dominon, then there my unlce Dr. James Maxwell is going also to do essay about the new dominion and do some research and that’s petty much besides a few AMI officals and Imperial Blackguards mens…that’s reminds me…I been meaning to ask you…how come your unlce is Bosniaks and yet your backgound is of Spainish speaking and of German backgounds…how does the Bosniaks thing factor in…” Ask the Sultan
Roxelane rolled her eyes
“Agh…I kept on telling you this so many times…you kept forgetting this.. I am half Latino..and 25 percent German and 25 percent Bosniaks..that’s last time I going to tell without getting annoy…so what city am I going to send to visted?” She ask
“Sorry…I have keep forgetting that …alright the city your going to visit is in New Great Britain, the largest Island in the Dominion…somewhat bigger then Great Britain…the city was found by Swedish in the 1700s..it was name Gotham City…its major city in the north half of the Island…do the location of Nova Atlantis, which is in the most Southern part of the Indian…its climaic is like New Zealand…green and mountianus…just to give you heads up Gotham has a lot of Gothic architecture it…you will be leaving in two days,and be in that city for one week, alright? And oh yeah Eid ul-Fitr is tomorrow get ready for it” said the Sultan
“Ok, I’ll get my stuff pact up and let our daughter Zainab bin Bashir and son Ismail al Tiberius Bin Bashir know that their mother will be gone for bit..meh we have our nanny and Sophia and Haziqah to watch over them. Oh good Eid is tomorrow, better pick something nice for that.” She said and the left the office
Over the course of the next two days, many things happen like Eid ul-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan, which was celebrated thoughtout the Khailfah on November 4th, 2005, its was a very importnant day for the Khailfah…it mark the end of fasting. Althought most of the people miss Ramadan passing…it was odd for most outsiders to understand why they missed Ramadan , when its over.
The day after Eid ul-Fitr, in the early morning, Roxelane was getting ready for her trip to Gotham.. She already give her son and daughter a hug and told them that she’ll be back in one weeks time. She was dress in her favorite black designer trench coat; with long black skirt which down to her ankles. She was wearing a blue button up dress shirt with long shelves, and then She had on her green hajib, with his black sunglasses and black high heels. She got her suitcases in order and she was ready to leave, then she headed to see her husband the Sultan, before she left for a long week in the Dominion of Nova Atlantis. She headed to Sultan Office and walked in the office to the find the Sultan doing some paper work for the bloody accountants. They chatted for the bit and said their good byes, and the Sultan give her a hug and wish her trip the best. Then she was on her marry way to the front of the palace to way for the limo to pick her up.. Five minutes passed, then a Black BNW limo came up , the Imperial Black Guardsmen help load her suitcases into the limo. Then the doors to the passage section was opened and she got into the limo, and she saw who was already in the limo, the first person she saw was her Dune Empress Secretary Rena Vlahopoulou (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/kristin007.jpg), who was wearing a black business suit dress. She explain that they give her two day notice and they came by today to pick her up. Then she who else was in the limo it was her uncle Dr. Hasan Salihamidžić (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/abc1f3fc.jpg) and there was on left…it was good old nutty The AMI Fifth Chief Directorate-Dr. James Maxwell (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/sora.gif) was sitting the limo. Both her uncle and Dr. Maxwell were wearing black rain coats and suits. As they drove to the airport, they made small talk…
“So Uncle Hasan, why are you going to Nova Atlantis to set up new branches of your company private hospitals?” ask Roxelane
“To be frank, I see a golden opportunity to expand our company to new lands…even thought that market in Nova Atlantis is tough to get a foothold in…besides since your going…and I might as well go…besides your mother was going to kill me , if I didn’t not going to Nova Atlantis..for some odd reasoned.. “ Reply Dr. Salihamidžić
“Wait why did my mother want to kill you…oh she is major shareholder in the company and wants to make more money…so she saw the opportunity to expand..not ye, isn’t true Uncle?” said Roxelane
“Agh…. how smart of you…Roxelane.” Answer Dr. Salihamidžić (Her unlce was on her father side)
Then there was a few moments of silence
“Oh goody we are going to land , where they all have Yankee..like accents…do some weird reasoned.. and to think that region of the Dominion was once part of the British Empire…I must what the hell is wrong with this picture…its freaking ex British Colony…and they speak Yankee English….well a kind of Yankee English…which sounds more like Canadian English to me…but its still a bloody what the hell for me to understand they don’t have of a more British English background then to a American English. I better put that in my essay…this bloody complex with a complex, as I said it..” remark Dr. Maxwell
“Clam down…Maxwell don’t get work up on their accents…they are loyal subject to the Khailfah…besides we have to formal visited them to make them feel welcome in the Khailfah. From what I hear about this new dominion they are very important to us..and we don’t want to insult our new subjects don’t we?” Ask Roxelane
“True…but this is a major complex for me to get over..without going crazy..” remark Dr. Maxwell
“ I thought you were already crazy..” Joked Roxelane
“Its funny and yet its so true..”reply Dr. Maxwell
They kept on talking to themselves for 20 more minutes, after that they reach the Istanbul International airport. As they got out the car, they were welcome by the Imperial Blackguard who led them to the Airbus A380 Superjumbo jet, which was a government plane, assign to tranporting high-ranking governemnt officals to the many regions of the Khailfah. The Airbus itself was fitted with many counter meauses and defense in case it was attack… The KLM government had Airbus fitted with these top secret counter measues to protect the plance at all cost, the plane had nearly 555 passengers and half of them were Imperial Black Guards, Black Hawks, AMI agents and High Guard agents all assign to protect the plane and the govt. officals on the plane. The other half were mainly just the personal and guest of the fight. The Empress, the two Doctors and the Secretary, got on aboard and were seated in the front of the plane. As the plane was getting fueled, a number of Black Hawk officers got on aboard the plane, they were the brothers Karamazov and co, and they were the following… AMI Black Hawks Head- Flag Rank General Fyodor Yakovlevich Karamazov (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/e1d8f6b0.jpg)(31 years old), then his oldest brother the legendary Field Marshal of the Al Muslimeen Army(Black Legion) Dmitri Karamazov(38 years old), then his younger brother Flag Rank Commander Ivan Karamazov(28 years old) , and his youngest brother Lieutenant Commander Alexei Karamazov ( 25 years old). Then came another key officer was with them Colonel Pavel Smerdyakov(26 years old), they were all dress in black business suits and were wearing black sunglass…they had a important assignment in the Gotham City, they were order to come along with the Empress to do their key mission..They were seated in back of the plane out of the sight of the Empress and her company.
After the plane was fueled , they it took off to Gotham City. After the plane left the airport, it was join by 10 MiG-29s fighters who were assign to protect the Plane at all cost. It was going to be long fight to Gotham City, about an ten hour fight non stop to the city from Istanbul. One into the fight, Dr. Maxwell excuse himself from the front section of the plane and made his way to the back section to have chat with the Black Hawks, he already knew that they were on board the plane and what their assignment was…
Dr. Maxwell walk into the section where the Brothers Karamazov were sitting and took seat with them.
“ Ah gentlemen ready for your assignment in the Gotham city?” He asked them
“Of couse, yet I wonder…how can you know what our missions are…you are the only The AMI Fifth Chief Directorate…yet you know all about us…its somewhat alarming..” comment Flag Rank Commander Ivan Karamazov
“My my…someone doesn’t know enough about the system…I am one of the highest ranking officers in the entire KLM Intell agencies…I know what goes on in the AMI , High Guard and SIA…because I am one of the few people with alpha lockout access to all the files of the intell agencies…the other who have this access is Khan, Bester, Sloan and Seyyed( The Highest ranking heads of the KLM intell)…your thinking how can this happen…it’s a conundrum for you guys to understand why I have such a high ranking access…yet I highly doubt you’ll find out why ….its all ridden within the system…” reply Dr. Maxwell
“Maxwell, why can’t you just give us clear answer and complex with a complex answer for now..” remark Field Marshal of the Al Muslimeen Army(Black Legion) Dmitri Karamazov
“Then it wouldn’t be fun, wouldn’t it?” reply Dr. Maxwell
“Come on Maxwell…do tell us how you get that level of access…even I don’t have that much clear and I am the bloody leader of the Black Hawks!” said Flag Rank General Fyodor Yakovlevich Karamazov
“You truly want to know why I have so much access to the AMI….well you’ll never find out why…maybe another time…you’ll find out..I’ll give only one hint to this complex…its not because of family. I have this access…its nothing related to blood…that’s your only hint…” reply Dr. Maxwell
“Damn you Maxwell, you have more complex then Khan himself…” remarked Colonel Pavel Smerdyakov
“Its people like you who keep on asking me these questions, that makes my job more fun day by day. Besides I know well of your mission to purge Gotham city of its unwanted elements….and yet you wonder why you have been picked for this mission..its easy…the Black Hawks do not follow the laws that the AMI, High Guard and SIA have to follow…the Black Hawk existent outside of these laws…they have standing orders to do anything to guard the state from any threats…just giving you a blank check to do whatever you want all in the name of protecting the state. Enjoy it boys.” Said Dr. Maxwell
“ Maxwell, I will never understand you..but thanks anyways…I guess.” Remarked Fyodor Karamazov
Then Dr.Maxwell left the Black Hawks and headed back to the front section of the plance. He took his seat next to Roxelane, who was half slept when he was seated. He manger to awake her up..they were only a half hour into the fight..and she was almost knock out.
“Where did you go?” ask Roxelane
“Oh I just took a walk…I can’t sitting a seat for such long time…” reply Dr.Maxwell
“Alright..” She reply and went back to sleep
It was going to be a long trip to get to Gotham City…a place where the nights were of a dark nature…and not to pleasant.

He had standing orders to lead a massive purge in the corrupt dominion, it was known in the inner workings of the Central Government about how corrupt was Nova Atlantis compare to the regions and dominions of the Khailfah. As the most corrupt dominion in the entire Imperium, with the title the Imperial Central Government tend to look down at the Dominion elect officials, and barely trusted its appoint officials. As soon as Nova Atlantis went from protectorate to Dominion, the central government made case to study its new dominion to think up of ways to combat the corruption , after the study was made a report and send to the Sultan for review. The Sultan had meeting with the Grand Vizier of Dominions and after the meeting, the Sultan order the AMI to purge the dominion of all corruption and dismiss all corrupt officials…to make sure they don’t make a “come back.”.

“About time we get rid of that dumb bitch…the only sole reasoned we give her that post…was because she was the Empress of Nova Atlantis…now with the Dominion stable and the people loyal us then to her…we can finally get around making this dominion free of unwanted elements. So how is the first assignment of JAG taking you, Anne and how is your sister?” ask the Empress

“How true..”reply Anne
They kept on talking to each other in till they where told, they will be landing at Gotham International Airport within the next 10 minutes and get to their seats as the Airbus was getting ready to land in the airport. The weather for Gotham city was clear skies and the temperature of 26 C (79 F) degrees, it was claim and peaceful day when the Empress came to visited. The Plane landed without any problems, then the red carpet was role out and the Dominion Honor Guard of Nova Atlantis, the first people to come out of the plane was the Imperial Black guard walk down the stairs and stood side by side by with the Dominion Honor Guard. Then finally Dune Empress of the Imperium Roxelane Lisowska bin Bashir and her unlce Dr. Hasan Salihamidžić walk down the stair of the Airbus, and then follew them were was JAG Judicator Anne Maxwell and Dune Empress Secretary Rena Vlahopoulou. They walked down the stairs were greet by the Dominions leaders, they were

The Empress walk up to them and shake their hands, even thought as she shake the hand of the High Commissar, in her mind..she had half a mind to bitch slap her and beat the hell out of him…Also Dr.Maxwell had the same ideas sending the High Commissar and the Dune Empress get into a Cat fight and Dr.Maxwell would be standing back with Cuban cigar , watching with pleasure. Then after the Empress shake hands with the leaders of the Dominion, Dr.Maxwell came down the stairs and took his place with the Empress on tar mat ..Then his agents, the Black Hawks, and last JAG Judicator came out the of the plane. With everyone ready, a line of limos were waiting for them , so they could taken to the welcoming party. After the Empress exchange greetings with the Nova Atlantis leaders, Then Empress along with Dr. Maxwell, Dr. Salihamidžić, and Flag Rank General Fyod were taken to a awaiting limo, they got in to the car along with the leaders of Nova Atlantis..they were told that were being taken to a party that was being held in their honour, the person who hosting it was one of Gotham leading philanthropist a person by the name of Bruce Wayne. The party itself was taking palace at his mansion known to the locals as Wayne Manor…which just outside of Gotham city.
On the limo ride to Wayne Manor, the Empress didn’t say anything to Nova Atlantis leaders, she just nodded in to whatever they said…she was in deep thought about the coming events. But the quiet that the Empress wanted was broken by a question asked by the President of Nova Atlantis- Robert Harold Macmillan, the question was this
“My Dune Empress , I must ask you this key question…what is the new with Dominion Reform act, is still being debate in Parliament or its going to be voted on?” ask the Nova Atlantis President
“Well, the last time I heard a update on that Act…it going to voted on tomorrow by the Parliament..its been heavily debate in every major level of the government.. and I know from what I have heard its going to be a very narrow vote for passing it or not passing…I know and understand why its such a key issues for the Dominion Governments to follow.. If this act passes…the Dominions would grant more rights and more over their own affairs…we shall see if this act is to be passed or not to passed…we shall see soon.” Reply Empress Roxelane
The President nodded in agreement and no one said a word thought the entire trip, it only took about an hour before they reach Wayne Manor, when they reached Wayne Manor..they saw that the manor was on a massive estate, and the house itself was big mansion that appear to be a few hundreds years old. Then the entire group of limos stops at the driveway of the Manor. Everyone from the Airbus was getting out of the limos that the Dominion Government sends them, The Empress Roxelane was somewhat amaze by the mansion, but no one could tell, because she was wearing sunglasses, which hide the expressions of her eyes. Waiting at the steps of the Mansion was Bruce Wayne (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/a93948c6.jpg) himself. He walked up the Empress and welcomes her personal and he spoke in fluent Arabic
“Dune Empress of the Imperium Roxelane Lisowska bin Bashir, I would like to welcome to Nova Atlantis, I hope you and your staff enjoy your stay in Gotham city..its very interesting place.Now would you just fellow me to backyard we’ll having the party in your honour over there.” Said Burce Wayne
“Ah thank you for the welcome. Mister Wayne, please lead the way.” Reply Roxelane trying to be polite as she can be
Then Bruce Wayne lead them to the backyard…
Not far from the Dune Empress, Prime Minister, High Commissar, President and Dr. Hasan Salihamidžić, and then her staff plus guards was Dr. Maxwell with Agents, the Black Hawks and the Assassins. Dr.Maxwell just passed a remark to them to just blend in and disapper into the backgound..and so they did… it was just Dr.Maxwell and his daughter who were the onlys together thoughtout the party and noticeable, everyone else disapper and were watching from the shadows..and no one would notice them…since the AMI is skill in the art of mind tricks. For the most the party of a social event..where all the elites of Gotham and Nova Atlantis came to see and welcome the Empress to their Dominion.
“Such a wonderful party, isn’t it my Empress.” Remark High Commissar of Nova Atlantis Alexandra von Ludwig
“But of couse..so many interesting people to meet and talk to ..” reply the Empress somewhat remote voice
The Empress unlce was busy takling away to Mister Wayne about joining a partership in setting up new medical centers in the region. Just leaving the Empress alone with her Dune Empress Secretary Rena Vlahopoulou and few Imperial Black Guardmen to deal with the Nova Atlantis elites..such a fun job it was..
Then the Prime Minister of Nova Atlantis-Benjamin Hamiliton Sinclair decide to talk to the Empress for a bit
“My Empress, How are things back at Istanbul , I take everything is going well?” ask the Prime Minister
She took a moment to answer, she was somewhat absorb about enjoying seeing the wonderful rose gardens.
“What…well everything is well in Istanbul…well its well to our standard…well is when our high ranking governments official arguing and getting into to fist fights. or sometime beating each other with wooden cane at the floor of Parliament..and in some cases during a speech of a Minister, all depending on what debate on what topic…yet everything still works fine..” She replied
“Ah how enlightening…”reply the Prime Minister
Dr.Maxwell and his daughter where keeping their eyes for two people…who were these two people..his daughter didn’t know..
“Father who exactly are you expecting to see at this party?” asked JAG Judicator Anne Maxwell
“Oh someone you know and someone you don’t…that’s who I am looking for my dear..” reply Dr. Maxwell
Then a voice came from the behind them
“ Dear bother and my dear nieces, why isn’t so shocking that I would know you would be here!”
“ And here is the someone you know, my dear..” reply Dr.Maxwell
“Ah isn’t dear old uncle Dr. Edmund Maxwell..its been a long time uncle!” reply Anne
“Yes it is…been such a long time, hasn’t Anne…the last time I saw you was when you were only 14…its that one of the downs about being a overseas then OI now AMI, nowadays I get post in the remote areas of the Khailfah and file reports about the Dominions and this dominion is the most fun and interesting...”remark AMI Agent Dr. Edmund Maxwell (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/6b83e363.jpg)
“So it is…a interesting, it was thanks to your reports my dear younger brother…AMI is now acting on it..its good to see once again.” Said Dr.Maxwell
“Well, then brother so I am …so I am..besides I won’t be in Gotham city for any longer…staying here for ten years isn’t fun anymore, I am being reassign after this assignment is over back Istanbul.. oh there is someone looking for my dear brother…you know them well…just kept your eye out for them…and if your wondering who is they, its one offspring and one person you known since the beginnings…that’s your hint…” said Dr.Edmund Maxwell

Here is the Act of Dominion Reforms
Intro: We the members of the Khailfah al Muslimeen government here by pass these acts in the hopes of improving the freedoms of the Khailfah dominions. These new freedom will give more support to the Dominions and make less dependent on the Central Government for aid. Just forming nearly complete self-governing states within the Khailfah and under the protection of the Khailfah. These following the articles would go into greater detail what powers and freedoms would the Dominions have.
Article 1
All the Dominion Governments, overall leader is Khaif Suleiman Al Bashir II, of the House of Al Bashir, Emperor of the Balkans, Sultan of the Khailfah al Muslimeen, Padishah Emperor of the Dune Imperium, Kayser-i Rùm, Tsar of all Russias, Kaiser of the German Empire, Protector and keeper of the Holy Cities, Sultan of Sultans, Khan of Khans, Commander of the Faithful and Successor of the Prophet of the Lord of the Universe, I.E Khaif and protector of Orthodox Christianity. Yet the Sultan can appoint two officals that he belives that are in his best interest to manger these Dominions, The first offical is the currentlly existing office of High Commissar, a new office must be created this post officially will be the office of Viceroy, but the title will diff from each dominion. This new power will share the powers between the High Commissar and Viceroy, that will be advise Privy council of the Dominion, which its members will be appoint for life terms, they will be appointed by the elected Dominion Government. The role of the Viceroy to take more of active role in the Dominion daily affairs and advice the elected Dominion Government, on key issues. The role of the High Commissar does not change, yet the Viceroy is acting on the Sultan behalf and may appoints officials to key posts in the Dominion, but has to be approve by the Grand Vizier of the Dominions first. Yet under this new system, the Viceroy can appoint and run the day to day affairs of the Dominions Imperial holdings (in other word He or she would in control of all Central Government assets in the Dominions) and the High Commissar has the right to dismiss elect or appoint officials on the grounds of undermining the state or other crimes against the state. Also the High Commissar is also the acting head JAG for the Dominion and can strike down laws of the Dominion that do not go with the laws of the Khailfah and the policy of the Khailfah.

The Dominion Governments will have the right to have their only limted regional policy, which will allow the Dominions to fix their own problems without the need of asking the Imperial Government for help. Just taking off the stress of dealing with the Dominons day to day regional problems for the Imperial Government.
Article III
The Dominion Governments will have greater say over their own affairs, yet will still advise and follow the policy of the Imperial Government.Also the Imperial Government will grant complete home rule to all the Dominons. The Dominon Governments will be grant move power to decide their polices within the framework of the Khailfah, just making them less dependent on the Khailfah to fix all their problems. Yet we are still the loyal subjects of the Khailfah and vow to never to break away from the Khailfah or plot against our Khailfah. With this vow or plegde of blood loyal to the Khailfah, we the Dominon Government shall no longer press the Imperial Government for more rights ,freedoms, and vows to support the Khailfah in any war that the Khailfah may fight in the future.
Article IV

3. Romania
4. Czechoslovakia
5. Hungary
6. Yugoslavia (Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Slovenia)
B.Lands to transfer from direct rule of Khailfah to the Dominion of European Union
1. Austria
That was it, The Sultan finnish reading it and then sign it into effect and then he began speaking
“Many of you are wondering why did I transfer core muslims land of the Balkans to the Eurasian Dominion , it’s a simple really. Its design to make sure that we have strong hold on that dominion…and make they can’t plot against us, and if they do we’ll find out thought our much more loyal subjects in the Balkans. Besides it may appear that we lost our Balkans lands forever…but if you think about it…we just made our rule over them more indirect then to direct…we still will have our Imperial garrisons in the Balkans, India and Southeast Asia. The sole reason we pushed for the creation of Dominions for India and Southeast Asia was to counter any feeling for the other dominions to try to stand up against the Imperial Government. They will the voice against acts of protest against Imperial Government from the Dominion Government…so therefore I am insured that they can never have a united front against the Imperial Government..these are our most loyal dominions(India and Southeast Asia). Besides we will make a example out of Nova Atlanis to show that we made bussniess and don’t mess with us..” said the Sultan, he pause for moment and allow it to sink in his ministers head.
All his ministers nodded in agreement and the Sultan began to speak again
“Now let me introduce some of my assissints to help me rule the Khailfah and the office of Sultan..” Then the Sultan nodded his head to his Guards to allow two officals in, aright before the Sultan allow the two new officals to enter, the Sultan said something
“Now is the refresh your minds on these two key post, The Mu’awin Tafweedh (deputed assistant) is appointed by the Khailfah, who is given the authority to assist him in undertaking the responsibility .The function of the deputed assistant is to report to the Khailf the actions carried out and the issues he executed within the authority delegated to him , he is not equal to the Khailf, his job is to report to the Khailf, and execute the directives given to him. Next is the Executive Assistant- his function is executive and not ruling, he is to execute the instructions of the Khaif in both domestic and foreign affairs. He is to relay to the Khaif what is received from these spheres, this administrative office is a medium between the Khaif and the others. The Mu’awin Tanfeedh( executive assistant) must remain in direct contact with the Khaif, similar deputed assistant, however the executive assistant is considered to be an assistant with the respect to executive function only and not in ruling. With that being refresh…now allow the two new officials to come in and yes I have appointed them to their post, to that answer that question.” Said the Sultan
Then the Mu’awin Tanfeedh(executive assistant) -Abdul Aziz Bin Bashir (Sultan Brother) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/a6dbb64e.jpg) enter the room, many people confused him with his older brother the Sultan, yet there are different between him and his oldest brother. First of all Aziz has Green eyes and the Sultan has Hazel eyes, plus Aziz a bit more darker skin, plus he is much younger and youthful then to his brother and was the head of the arm forces Intel core, he resign only two month ago and was appointed by his brother to this post in the Imperial Government. Then came the Mu’awin Tafweedh(deputed assistant) Dr.Asad al Bashir( The Sultan cousin.) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/murphy.jpg), he is one of the Sultan least known to the public cousins, he was a vizier before being appointment to the post of deputed assistant, he is very bright and could be a very useful in advising the Sultan..
The two assistants took their seats in the table with the other ministers. Then the Sultan when to talking about the topic at hand
“We must make sure that every dominion will understand to dare plot against the Khailfah or to even allow groups within their dominions to do so without being crush…will not be allow…its time we make a example of one of the dominions to show…whoever dares to stand against us…will be deal with in a painful way…there is no point to allow these elected dominion governments as plot against the Khailfah…the Dominion of Nova Atlantis is the most disloyal dominion in the Khailfah….we are going to make a example out of Nova Atlantis and purge her of all unwanted elements such as mobs, organize crime and crime lords . Plus we are going to purge Nova Atlantis of all disloyal elements that are plotting against the Khailfah. This will set precedent for the other Dominions to follow…those who allow unwanted and disloyal elements in their dominions…will face the blade of the Assassins or the gun fire of AMI and Black Hawks…Outsiders would say we repress democratic ideas and democracy….well I have to tell them , there is such thing of democracy in the Khailfah…its just state of mind or illusion in the Khailfah…its appears that we do have it…yet it doesn’t mean anything…there is two officials in the Khailfah one appointed and other elected..who has power over who…the JAG courts made it very clear that the appointed officials have power over the elected at all times. As it stated in our constitution, which was written back in the reformist constitution of 1908…which the framers of the constitution stated that democracy will lead to the ruin of the state and allow disunity within the Khailfah…just goes the saying as one of the reformist say in that time period “ To hell with democracy , long live the Khailfah as a whole and down with the democratic idealisms! With that my Ministers, we have always been a non democratic state, we just keep the illusion of democracy to keep the people happy and allow them to think they have a voice in the policy of the state…these dominions think they have more say over their lands…they don’t …they have as much say as the regional governments under direct rule of the Khailfah have..which means…nothing… at all…we give illusions and they are happy with it…such foolish notices and yet they work so perfectly.. I allow people to think I am figurehead ruler , so they don’t think so much of me…as the saying goes still water runs deep.. and I am more then it appears…I’ll be damn to allow anyone to plot against me…” Then the Sultan pick up a glass full of water with his robotic right hand..” not even my wives will be exempt from my wrath … they will have those post as minor advisers..nothing more, nothing less….its all to given them a illusions of power.. You have to be a master of illusions to handle the post of the Khailfah….I took a vow when I was appoint and elected by the Viziers of the House of Vizier to swear I will protect the state at all cost, and I will protect the state from those plotting against her…yes yet another purge is coming… against those in the dominions who dare stand against us and our system… MAY THEY FACE DAMNNATION FOR PLOTTING AGAINST THE KHAILFAH!” then the Sultan crush the glass of water in his right hand…” Now my ministers…we must never bow down to them…they must bow to our will as leaders of the Khailfah!” Said the Sultan
President of the Presidum Hussein bin Osman began to speak and he clapped his hands
“Well said my Sultan, you have learn much since those first days as the Khaif…you have follow the late Sultan Musafa bin Asad footsteps to the teeth…and have set up your own path of leadership for the Khailfah…my my Sultan you have learn well from us…” He remarked
“Long live the Padishah Emperor of the Dune Imperium, you have finally prove to us that you are the one true leader that we have been searching for such a long time.” Said Chairmen Naguib Mahfouz
“ Ah, yes it took this long for me to prove to all of you, I am the one Sultan that lead the Khailfah to more greatness and stabilized her even more. Let gentlemen I grow tired…I must rest, this meeting is over.” Said the Sultan and everyone left the room.
The next day new spread that the Dominion reforms act have been pass, it was a day of great joy for the people…too bad it all a illusion…

The party was going petty well, everyone was enjoying the event . Empress Roxelane was keeping up the act of hinting that she hated High Commissar of Nova Atlantis Alexandra von Ludwig , it was really an act…Empress Roxelane had the greatest repect for her, but with the changes to the Dominion Governments and the new post that was going to be given Alexandra, she had to put up an act that she hated her so no one would suspect there was no amount of favoritism involved..but the real reason that Empress Roxelane that Alexandra manger to get a high ranking post after the Dominion reforms, was to get the Alexandra out of that key post of High Commissar and give her less post which didn’t have much power, yet just enough to kept her happy and decease the effects of ineffective leadership…why the Empire kept her in power…was not clear to most people, but to some it was about her family who were the ex leaders and ruling family of Nova Atlantis..it was better to just allow them to have limited power ,so they don’t rebel or plot against the Khailfah. The Empress got a cell phone call it was from her Husband, he told that her, he has sign the Dominions Reform acts into effect, he give her the go ahead to give the letter of dismiss to all the Nova Atlantis officials, they were set to be dismiss.
Then after getting the go ahead, the Empress type in a code on her cell phone, which give the go ahead to her staff to start handing out the letters of dismissed to the appointed officials of Nova Atlantis who were at the party at Wayne Manor. Most of the Officials were in state of shock.. The most shocked was Alexandra von Ludwig…ex High Commissar, she walk up to the Empress who watching everyone reaction with most interest
“ Dune Empress Roxelane..what have I done to get this dismisses from the Sultan!” ask Alexandra and then number of other dismiss officials came up to the Empress and ask the same questions. The Empress just smile and reply
“Its all part of the Dominion Reforms act….the part about dismisses appointed officials was for Nova Atlantis alone…I have with me a list of new appointments that have approve by the Office of Sultan, and roughly 80 percent of you…have been reappointment , now I have standing orders to appoint a new High Commissar who has already been name by the Sultan.” Then She took out a letter of appointment to the post of High Commissar and open it and the said” The name of new High Commissar, he was the ex minister of Science for Nova Atlantis who resign his post, right before it become a dominion, do the reasons that he wanted to retire from government life. And now here is the High Commissar of Nova Atlantis Dr.Heizo Takenaka (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/Ottoman01/27cbab11.jpg).” At the same time Empress said his name he step out of the shadows to show him self and took a bow of support from the people at the manor. He was one of the many Japanese that lived in the Dominion, Then the Empress went back to her speech
“Now for the post of Viceroy for the Nova Atlantis, the letter of appointment has been give to Alexandra von Ludwig. Which local tile will be Empress of Nova Atlantis.” Said the Dune Empress with a smile
Then Alexandra realizes she given a “Better” post in Imperial Government or so she thought…. Everyone at the party who got reappointed was please and the happy feel to the party return
“Such a good actor she is…isn’t she brother?” said Dr.Edmund Maxwell (talking about Dune Empress Roxelane)
“Quiet right…she is very nice and has a big heart…but such a interesting actor…and plays her roles perfectly…and what do you think ?”Reply Dr. James Maxwell and he ask the two figures, who were with them. The party went for most of the night and ended at around 7 o’clock. The Empress and her group left for Ritz Hotel, a five star hotel…to get rested for the next day to come..no one knew who Maxwell was talking to..but they will soon find out..

Back in the Sultan Palace, at 8 o’clock in the morning. The Sultan call for meeting of the Protectorate states leaders…he had a important topic to discuss with them.. The Sultan and his Grand Vizier were walking down the hallways of the Palace to a main hallway where the meeting was taking place.
“Damn it man…must we do it now…sure the Protectorate government have step out of lines a few times..but must we do this now…in the palace of all places?” ask Grand Vizier Mehmed Pasa Sokollu
“Its time my old friend that we set the standard for all the Dominions…the Regions and the bloody Protectorate to respect the rule of the Khailfah… I am no longer going to stand and allow them to not follow all the edicts of the Khailfah…if they don’t like tough luck..whatever the Khailfah said a law…I am only now starting to crack down on the dissents leaders in the protectorates who refuse to bow their heads in allegiance to the Khailfah as whole…these are the ones that could lead to our down fall…history shows us that if we allow these kinds of leaders in power of key protectorate states…they could show our foes how to destroy us..like the Mongols did to Baghdad…or how the leaders of Egypt call for the wild men of Europe to stack and take the holy land for us….they cause so many deaths…never again would that happen again…I swear to never allow that to happen to our people ever again…never again..would our great cites burn and our people and lands be rape of all their wealth…never again…. I hate it you know….I hate ordering this…I personal can’t take it anymore…but I force to this for my people for the greater good….even thought its eating away my soul and mind….my believes are of Islamic Humanism ..And here I am betraying my ideas…for the stake of the state…its slowly killing me…I can’t take it…yet I learn to love…it’s a love hate relationships which makes me screaming at the top of my lungs…in my head.. oh why , oh why I must bear it…for the stake of the Khailfah..even thought its costing me my mental well being..” reply the Sultan
“Can’t we be civil to them…you yourself said it…you can’t stand it…we can act more civil then being this ruthless , maybe a less hard hand could make then act more loyal to us then doing this..” plead the Grand Vizier
“We try so many times to be civil my old friend..trust me…I have try very hard to be civil and kind to them and we got nothing of that it…this must be done for the greater good,,,even thought it may push me over the edge yet again…but has to be done…” Then the Sultan walk by and look at pass a series of pictures of his family…his children.. “ You know….I want the best for them…but its painful as it is for them to see their father go thought periods of being insane..even thought I hid it…they know.. they can tell..but..they are too young to realize what truly pains their beloved father… I could never watch my sons follow in my foot steps..its not their path…I have to show them a different path to take,which doesn’t lead to the office of Sultan..for their good.. all for the greater good..for the greater good, I have to so many mask to hid how I truly feel…so alone and yet with so many..” said the Sultan
“Yes, I will do the same my friend…government is such a cruel place and not fit for our kind of man…believe it has done the same to me as it done to you… well my friend…we have reach the doors of the main hall of this palace ..we must do what we got to do for the state.” Said the Grand Vizier and he nodded to the Imperial Black Guards to open the doors of the main hall so they could get in and gets the meeting started. Then if one was watching the Sultan , they could tell right away that the Islamic Humanist Suleiman Al Bashir II change right away to the Iron Fisted Leader of Khailfah. It was yet another mask he had to wear…he never showed both sides of his mind to anyone…to his foes..he showed his iron fisted half and to the people he knew..his mad another side..or civil side.
The leaders from the protectorate states were all settled in a long table. When the Sultan and the Grand Vizier enter the room..they all rose in respect and then when the Sultan and Grand Vizier took their seats, they took their seats.
The Sultan began to speak and start the meeting
“Well, I would to thanks the leaders of the protectorates to come in person to this grand meeting of the Protectorates states and protector..so to the leaders of Abari, Al-Alemand, Albenistan, Aldestan, Hidalgo, Ishtar, Qumar, and the Imperial Federation of Critannica. I thank you for personal coming to this meeting, its make things easily for us to do handle the topic of hand..” Then the Sultan voice grew deeper and he start to laugh for bit
“ You know we called this meeting..its to deal with the disrespect that the Protectorate states have giving to their protector..and during the Sino Jihad …they dare to disrespect the ruling of the PSC about stopping trade with the PRC…and you all have become corrupt…and allow crime lords and special interest groups run for your states… biting the hand that feeds you is not a wise idea…my protectorate states…after all it was the Khailfah that came to your rescues and save your nations from being conquer or falling into Civil War…about 60 years ago….we came and save your states from chaos…and the threat of being annex into a larger empires..and look at you how repay us…with disrespect and openly plot against the very people who save your nation and give trade and investments...no longer would I allow this disrespect from any of Regions, Dominions, and Protectorates…its time for a purge my dear gentlemen…” after that the Sultan pause and allow it to stink in the protectorates leaders minds…they were called here for not a meeting..but to meet their deaths…once they all realize that…all their faces turn pale white..
Then the Sultan asked the Grand Vizier the following” What time is it?” , then the Grand Vizier smile and reply “its 8:30 a.m… my Sultan.”
“Ah, good…let the Purge began now…” Said the Sultan in dark voice, no notice that already in the room were a group of assassins…well how could they notice them…they were using their mind tricks…to go unnoticed ..they could be standing right in front of you..and you’ll never know it if they were using their mind tricks. Within a moment notice the Assassins in brink of eye , took out their swords and began beheading the each of the protectorate leaders…they couldn’t do nothing…before they could even act..within a only matter of few brinks of the an eye..all the Protectorate leaders had been behead and their heart remove by the Assassins and watching it all was the Sultan and the Grand Vizier
The Sultan then order the Assassins, to clear up and get rid of the bodies, The Grand Vizier and the Sultan had manger to grow kind of glass eyes, where they block out what was happening before them….they remain sitting at the long table, drinking Turkish Coffee and then the Grand Vizier break the silence
“So now with disloyal protectorate leaders dead…we know the protectorate governments are going to elect new loyal ministers that obey the our orders..also at this moment, the purge in Nova Atlantis has began…we are killing those organize crime leaders like the pigs they are.. by doing drive bys or having their cars rig with bombs thanks to our friends of the Black Hawks or AMI..or having the good old Assassins do their job of killing by beheading and all started today at 8: 30 a.m…how wonderful isn’t it, here we are sitting in the same table where eight protectorate leaders were just killed..and drinking Turkish coffee like nothing happen…how insane have we truly become eh Suleiman?” remark the Grand Vizier
“Well, Mehmed…we have to do things that we think are wrong , yet are really good for the stake of the state livlyhood…it is why we must sit here and drink Bloody Turkish Coffee and watch these assassins, carry out body bags of traitor, who were only a few minutes still alive and here we are drinking coffee..like nothing happen…to maintain our perfect social make up…we must root out those unwanted elements..by doing these kind of things…am I personal against doing this kind of purge…but I can never allow my personal feeling mix with my policy making…I have no emotions when doing these kind of actions of purges..its appears that I have two separate sets of mind, one private ..is the person you talking to right now..and public..the person you see plotting these pruge..making the policy and rulings for the Khailfah..yet Private can’t BLOODY stand it…watching these merciless killing people…yet he too knows it must be done..for the stake of the state..but its slowly killing private..mindset..with great power comes great pains that can cause you mind to breakdown…there are times where this job has taken a great total on my mindset..nearly causing to me to think of shooting myself and the fact we are veteran doesn’t help at all for our mental well-being …but since we have been given so power for the use of good, we must use the dark side of it…to protect the light side…just leading to our madness…how long I am kept this up…I truly do wonder..” said the Sultan
“Who knows, my friend…who knows how long…we can stand it or take it..”reply the Grand Vizier

One week later, Dune Empress of the Imperium Roxelane Lisowska bin Bashir and her staff had return to Istanbul from touring Nova Atlantis, yet Dr.Maxwell and his agents, the Black Hawks and the assiassins had to stay to finnish up some loose ends before getting back home in Istanbul. The pruge was still on going in Nova Atlantis…and that was one of the key cause for Dr.Maxwell and company to stay in Gotham City. But now in Istanbul at the Sultan Palace, the Sultan call his wife Roxelane into a key meeting….it was going to be an debriefing on her mission to Nova Atlantis and on other matters.
The Sultan was in his office reviewing some local new updates on his computer and something caught his eye…it was SIA report of the Sultan neigborhood. Normally the Sultan didn’t brother to read the reports from State Investigation Agency(SIA) which handle with local matters of crimes, and organize crime , a name caught his eye Veronica Christina Hermans…it state something along the lines that her investigation techniques and interest in solving crimes…and went to said that could be a problem in the near future..
Then the Sultan heard a knock on his door, he knew it was his wife Roxelane and told her to enter the office. She spoke to him
“You call in for meeting of somekind..what’s up…is about Nova Atlantis..I thought we already had the debriefing already?” She asked
“ Well its not about the Nova Atlantis my dear…its about the future of the family and the House of Bashirm where do you see it in 20 years from now?” ask the Sultan
She thought for moment and reply
“I see our son( Ismail al Tiberius Bin Bashir, who is only four years old) running for some post in the Imperial Government and maybe a take an shot in getting a seat in the House of Viziers and our daughter (Zainab bin Bashir ,6 years old) getting her education and getting married into a powerful family. As for the others( the Sultan other wives childern), I see your two oldest daughters Azeeza(seven years old) and Fatima(eight years old) going on the same path as our daughter and for little Abdul-Haady al Julian bin Bashir( five year old and ironically the oldest son of the Sultan) I see him running for a post in the Imperial Government like Ismail..( these kids from Azeeza to Julian were children of the Sultan wife Sophia). As for Bahiyaa Bin Bashir(age five years old), I see her also following the same path as the others and for Rashid al Asad bin Bashir (three years old) run for a work for the JAGs and someday get appoint to the post of Judge.( Rashid and Bahiyaa are Haziqah children).. so that sums up for the most our family.” She remark
The Sultan just looked at her blankly and said
“ Sophia, Haziqah and now you too Roxelane… have same one track mindsets for the future of our children…dear me…what has become of us…it freaking creeps me out..besides I don’t have plan to arrange the futures of my daughters or sons…let them have the free will to make their own futures..and hopefully not related to politics, frankly I would strongly recommend them to stay away from politics and become doctors or something …but anything but politics…it will ruin their mental heath for a sometime…so for their stake …I will strongly recommend them not to follow in their father footsteps!” said the Sultan
“Can’t blame a mother or mothers for dreaming for their children future..” remark Roxelane somewhat put down by her husband remarks
“I am sorry for being frank, my beloved wife…but it has to be said, I am strongly against the idea of my sons or even my daughters to get into the game of politics, which game that stucks the life out of you and ruins your happiness for life, because its replace for the hungry of power and the insane to protect what little power you have..
and I can’t allow my sons to follow this insane path of ruin..for their own stake..they will follow my advice and not go into the insane land of politics, I don’t want them face what My brothers and I have seen in that land or world. Its for their good believe me my love…I am going what is best for our families.. and I am not going allow arrange marriages for our children…”said the Sultan
“How true my beloved…we shall allow our children to decide their own futures and we just guide them to their futures.. a little push won’t hurt..but what’s this about arrange marriages ..you have something against it?” ask Roxelane
“ I have a difference on marriages and don’t want to do arrange marriages my dear..that’s all.” Reply Sultan somewhat uneasy
“Ah, I see….you don’t want happen to you happen to our children its perfectly understandable my beloved husband.. how long we know each other…since we were ten years old.. when our marriages were first arrange by our mothers..you have to hide it from me my dear.. I know you well enough..its alright to tell the truth upfront..” said Roxelane
“Thank you my beloved for understanding and oh since we are being truthful…tell your two brothers to quiet bugging me for post in the Imperial Medical Department, I replace the old head with new one…who happens to be your uncle Dr. Hasan Salihamidžić to the post of head of Health department..because he is one of for most people in Health..so best to give it him wouldn’t you said?” ask the Sultan
“Yeah, Unlce Hasan is good Doctor…I’ll go and call my younger brothers and yell at them for bugging you for postings…whenever I get the time!” laugh Roxelane
“Thanks again my dear, I just needed to talk to someone outside of Imperial Government for bit..before my next major meeting of the ministers..in a half hour from now..” explain the Sultan
“No problem call me anytime for chat..as long its when the kids are busy or sleep.” Reply Roxelane and she got up left the office to check on the childern.
The Sultan often miss having some kind of private chat with his family…as the events for the Khailfah got more and complex and took more of his time away his family..it depress him greatly…he try his best to spend whatever time left after dealing with government, with family..which was very little at times…at times making him more and more depressd, but he had a duty to the state first and then his family…

At the Sultan Palace , at the Sultan office at 2:40 P.M.
A number of arm forces officals enter his office room, they were from the following arm forces branches
Army , Marines, Paratroops, Navy, Air Force, Space Forces(Missle army cores) Home Guards” Reserve divisions” , Civil Defense Corps, and then came those banchs under the semi contral of the AMI.. Black Legions, Imperial Black Guard, the Janissary corps , and New Order corps, plus a number of officers from the East Asian Empire. They explain to him their future goals for the Khailfah and voice their discontents on how the state is handing itself and the affairs of the people. The Sultan listen very closer to his officer’s opinions and discount with the state and reply to their problems
“My friends all your points are so true and your are right in your views about the failure of the state…you have my complete support as the Amir of Arm forces( aka head of all Arm forces) to do what you must do for the state, and try to fix it…but remember leave the system and the idea alone or I’ll have your heads on a pike and I will wave my hands at your lifeless eyes…remember don’t not cross me…also I commend you on this task for the greater good of the state..but I will allow you attack one part of the system and you all know what I am talking about…remember your first duty is to the Khailfah and loyally to the Khailfah of all others…what your doing for the Khailfah is the greatest honour of all…all of you are trying to prevent the decline and fall of the Khailfah by doing this and also show our great allies of the East Asian Empire how we correct our own demons.. but you will not do anything in till the debate on this matter as happen…in till then…wait for my orders to go ahead” said the Sultan
The officers all bow in respect to the advice of the Sultan and filled out..something big was going to happen in the near future and the only person who knew about it out of the Arm forces was the Sultan and he was the only hope to stop then and make listen and obey his orders, but in this case..the Sultan was going to completely support their effort to “fix” the state the best way they could.. all in the name of the Khailfah…they were doing this.. for the greater good
It was becoming common for the Khailfah…to have random purges of key areas to show that Khailfah was in control and was able to maintain its iron fisted rule of the Khailfah.. these were the days where nights were getting darker and darker …the KLM was becoming a colder and colder place where the Imperial Central Government was bent on crushing any one who could stand a chance of rebelling or starting problems…oh how cruelly has the Khailfah become.. a place where you mind is only place where you could have truth freedom…freedom in the Khailfah has become a place where freedom is a illusion…yet you can have freedom only within a state of mind…and democracy is a mere hint of illusions and fiction…a place where the all powerful Sultan and his high ranking ministers rule and make the policy for the Khailfah…yet it’s the same place where the all powerful Sultan is nearly insane with guilt of being force use powers for the greatly…yet one must use the dark side to get to light side…but the Khailfah was heading to a path of dark lonely nights.. Oh, what brave new worlds have we yet to be seen and never will see if we never take the time to see…how lonely would we become to just bored and insane…with new worlds…gives us something new..
