starrychelx:  Thanks for wanting an embassy, and i believe that is a very good rating .

Hawkeye9:   Yea, well the box won't go away and i can't find the dependency because i don't even know what it is.  I have all that was required...or what it said was required.  Stex doesn't cooperate alot...

starrychelx:  of course, yours will stand out from all others .

griffen_star:  Thank you for coming around.  United Republic will certainly be able to have an embassy.  If you would like to pick a building, or the one i will asign to you (see bottom of post)

Nexis:

suplado!:  Thanks, i put some time into developing farms and getting custom ones to grow.

starrychelx:  Well, the velescoma building won't work but i believe the one by dmscopio will work fine.  just need a picture

aaglo:  Well thank you for the compliment.  Picture the islands i am building on and the others as smaller islands that you cannot see on the map.  The larger land mass to the top and right is the main island .  I just like to think it looks good .

Hawkeye9:  That link didn't work for me.  Yep, looks good.  (see bottom of page to make sure)

newyorkrunaway1:  Thanks for stopping by, i tried pretty hard to get the farms to look good and realistic.

starrychelx:  Ok, i looked it up on the stex.  The building should work but it might stand out...

feliwi:  Thanks, i tried to get the pictures to look a bit older.

Santos16:  Ok, your embassy will be granted acceptance.  (see bottom of post for the name and building)

isthisit51: 1.Yes, the modern island will hopefully be full of custom content, a few skyscrapers and, of course, modern buildings.

                  

                   2.  Yep seems fine. (see bottom of post for the right  name and building)

blue sinjid: Ok, thanks for applying.  just to make sure see bottom of post for the correct name and building.

Embassies currently Accepted: (if you should be on here or anything is wrong pm me)

starrychelx:  Geneova Embassy - Ghangzu Twin Tower

Hawkeye9:  Ampton County Embassy - Hearst Tower

griffen_star: United Republic of Kreveshka - CKLW Caeaars Windsor (i just thought of one that might suit you.  pm me if you want a different building)

Update 4: Royalty in Town

Now, remember the new governor that was appointed by King Pablos?  Fat Joe is what they call him.  When he was selected governor of Covina, he assigned richer townspeople to "make ready" the his land.  The governor was overly spoiled, fat, and lazy.  All day he would complain that there wasn't enough food to fill his belly in Coste Verde.  Because of this, he planned to live in Covina.

Now the people of this small farming town had much to worry about.  There was just enough crops to sell for money as there was to eat.  Many of the children ran begging through the streets.  With a new governor that eats as much as he does, there would be a great food shortage.

The nobles that had been assigned to "make ready" the town for Joes arrival realized this problem and came up with a fantastic idea...Joe would have his own farm in the western part of the island.

Here is that land they talked about:

After the arrival of Joe, his slaves worked day and night until they finished his magnificant farm.  

Here is an overview of the farm:

The new farm ran on newly discovered wind power:

Here is where Fat Joe himself lives, sleeps, and of course eats:

Shortly after him moving here, he and his girlfriend (the king of Coste Verde's Daughter) where married. (note this.  Royalty in Covina)

Here is where the slaves lived.  Although slaves, they were treated nicely and always where fed well.

The main farm Joe owned was a Corn Farm:

For some reason, Joe allowed his slaves to have their own farm and they choose a pumpkin farm - the second one in the city.

This next farm was only half completed.  It was a tobacco farm.

I leave you with an overview of the new area:

[Petrovar Ambassador 15]

Petrovar Ambassador:  Thanks.  If you do want a embassy in Covina, you will have to have a building by the 6th update.  Hope you decide by then.

Hawkeye9:   Thanks, next update it goes fully custom .  Stick around and find out.

Keep-Up:  Thanks, i am glad someone is reading the story.  These stories have a little bit to do with the future of Covina .

starrychelx:  ill take that as a good thing . 

thinboy66:  Thanks for stopping by, these are my first well photoshopped pictures too.

Uppdate 5: Joe's Marriage

Now, shortly after the governor of Covina moved into the town, he married his girlfriend who was the king of Coste Verde's daugter.   This marriage was not the one you expect for a women of her class.  She was 23 and had the nicest body around.  On the other side of the relationship, Joe was 32 with the body of a small elephant - small and round.

Now, no one knows for sure, but it is speculated that the king himself forced the marriage to happen.  Many of Covina's citizens believe this because the king's daughter showed no affection to Joe in a loving manner.

The wedding was held one week after they had moved to Covina.  It was a large wedding (for the time) as everyone in town was invited...Make that everyone in town was forced to go.  A feast followed the wedding.  Joe ate more then all the town put together.  

After the wedding, the king's daughter (known as Isabel) decided she could not live on a farm as ugly as Joe's. 

(be sure to click pictures for full resolution)

Joe's Farm:

So what she did was a total make-over.  She turned these little old things,

Into the most colorful farm around...Yes i said COLOR!!!

She also re-did most of the farm around their house.  The first area was for her husband - his own personal hop field to make beer.

Next was the wine.  This was as much for her as it was for the Governor.

And of course, when Isabel needed time away from Joe, she would go to her garden.

Now, her favorite food she could eat was rice.  For this reason she put in a rice field.

Soon they grew

Hope you enjoyed this colorful update .

[Mike the Mayor 51]
