        Confirmation letter to DIA :

        I, dr.PlagueRat, currently on an expedition in the Notylopian rainforest searching for the Fountain of Youth, hereby join the DIA. Lojal to the cause of intellectual and cultural growth, however. I think more wisdom should run through the governmental canals, by the way!
        This party could be the clue, with it's connections to the Thinkers Guild. Well, have a nice day!


        As a former Culture Party politics philosopher, I hereby advise all my collegues to join this party in a quest for adding common sense to Apolytonia.

        New proposals:

        1. We should also be prepared for struggle, when challenged by increasing odds.

        2. We should read and write to fill our minds with information.
        A library would have been excellent.

        3. Cultural expansion (city switching) and development (buildings)should be our primary task, at peacetime.
        At this stage, however, territorial expansion would fit well.

        Who would agree?

        (NB: should we rather discuss this elsewhere?)

We think of strong armies as a deterant to agression against our nation, but view industrial development as the most effective means to maintain superiority over all civilizations of the world.
          Same thing, twice as many words.

            So essentially the DIA focuses on perfection of our cities and resources and not mindless land-grabbing? Well then, please allow me to join.

              Good day to you
              Ummm... how do you propose to build and maintain a strong military without a strong and healthy infrastructure to support it?

              These things depend upon each other, they are not mutually exclusive.

              Good day to you.

                Well, since the UFC got bumped by a comparison to Austria-Hungary, what would the DIA compare themselves to? Germany? Italy? the UK? the USA?

                  DIA

                  Hey, im not bashing DIA so that wasnt the point of the post. Hell, im a member now. I'm simply saying you can stand around all day building temples and marketplaces and all that, or for the time being go rape and pillage a civ with a decent habitat around them. I know that is what is currently going on, and im not saying that everyone at DIA doesnt want this to happen. Im just illiterating on my previous post. More power to the DIA.

                  peace

                  Self-quieted, self-existing,
                  It is like a wave of water.
                  Luminosity is veiled only by the rising of desire.

                            We still outnumber you. By a couple I think. I haven't updated the list in a while.

                              The DIA has 27 members, with many other supporters.

                              The UFC has 28 on the list, with other member's "status pending".
