Apolyton Empire - Discussion

[Sheep]

Okay I will start posting in a few days. I am adding elemsnts of real history into this thing, and its taking me a while. Until then seeming as the Archbishop died, write about the Peace Summit.

[Mellian]

Okay...and also have to figure a general storyline as to how Mellian could still be around for so long....

if no one else is interested keeping their old characters, Mellian won't be familiar to them.

Oh, and before we start.... what kind of government do we want? Monarchy again? or Democracy? The govs don't have to be complicated

Democracy could be voting for an individual, not a party....and Governors of cities would be voted upon too.

Can also have a Constitutional Monarchy too...

Are we clear in wether we want Early-Industrial or Late-Industrial..... maybe pre flight/tank late-industrial

I was thinking having a Constiutional Monarchy. there have been periods of Republic but they failed. Also I had Melian being executed after the Peace Summit for treason, so I'm going to have to change that......

[Mellian]

You better! i suggest avoiding characters in the timeline in general.

-Mellian

[Sheep]

okay all that except for rulers which are half the timeline. Besides civman wanted to be a dynasty.....

[Easthaven I]

Must we have immortals? Can't you just have Mellian VII or somethin?

[Sheep]

In the current timeline there are several dynasties.

The First Republic
The Frist Iriquious Dynasty
The Second Republic
The Easthaven Dynasty
The Third Republic
The Giovanni Gynasty (start of constituinal Monarchy)
The Windsor Dynasty (has 20 year break where the King is in exile)
The Second Iriquois Dynasty

There are a number of Kings.

The current King is King Civman XV. he has ruled for the last two years. The year is 1940.

Other ruler names are

Queen Melian
King Markus
King Beer
anotjer I can't remember

(Moderators changed title to King after constutional Monarchy)

[foolish_icarus]

my vote is still for early industrial (c. early 1800s), kind of a napoleanic or immediatly post-napoleanic world scene. Later industrial would be fine, but i dont think we should start of past equivalent of European WW1 technology

[Sheep]

okay. I will do the timeline. Then we can vote on where we stop it and start the next story.

[Mellian]

Mellian is infertile ...and i am not having babies.

So yes, immortality.

Not everyone as too, and i am not keen with idea of getting executed either.

-Mellian

[Mellian]

Hey! leave the titles to Moderator.... as it is still base on the forums as well too!

-Mellian

[Easthaven I]

Must we keep Moderator? It would be cooler if it were changed to KING or somethin. Or maybe restrict 'Moderator' to a certain government...

WHy wouldn't the title change? Times change and government changed...

Just sayin....

[Mellian]

Moderator is a gender neutral term, and Apolyton is where male and females are the most equal

so why go backwards?

-mellian

[Easthaven I]

What? With King you still have Queen? HOw is that unequal? I'm just trying to be more widespread and realistic...

[Sheep]

Yeah I feel its unreralists and unbalancing if people are immortal and our rulers are called Moderators. What are the Moderating, it isn;t ther drinks, thats for sure.
