Advent Offensive

By Schulmanator,

Advent Offensive BuggUla has decided to have a special holiday lights display in Schulmania. No, this one will not compete with the Griswolds… Or even the Simpsons… This holiday display will be all about fire power, not candlepower. Witness the monstrous exercise known as The Advent Offensive, brought to you by the Grinch. I mean, BuggUla. So, what does BuggUla have in mind to do? Replace “Ho Ho Ho” with “Hee Hee Hee”. The spirit of the season will be one of despair as a massive new offensive gets...

Rebuilding

By Schulmanator,

Schulmauckland: Rebuilding The market town of Wirdlington, Schulmauckland District, was destroyed in a fire caused by an enemy attack [refresh your memory here]. It was a case of mistaken identity – enemy agents misunderstood and thought Wirdlington was Wirt, the national capital. The City Planning Office has completed the reconstruction of the town, and it has a totally different feel to it now. It is less of an agricultural crossroads, thanks in part to increased maritime traffic on the Sea of...

The Wirdleplex: Fortress of Peace From a BFA Military Communiqué, issued earlier this year by Governor-General H. J. Franciflora, at HQ in The Wirdleplex… The Wirdleonia River is the longest in the country and is a vital transit link. Protecting this resource is vital to national security. For this reason, I have commanded the BFA Military to build and maintain an island fortress off the coast proximate to the mouth of the river to protect the mighty Wirdleonia from potential enemy attack. Work will begin...

East Atkinos: Glenwood Military Academy The Schulmania National Army has the need to train good officers. But, building a military from the ground up is very challenging. Luckily, capable leadership has led to the development of a new military academy to fill the officer ranks with capable and highly qualified personnel. At a site in East Atkinos, a sizeable contingent of engineers, builders and military personnel have converged to turn the rolling farmland into a sprawling military academy campus with...

Bear Creek

By Schulmanator,

Middle Tenne: Bear Creek Welcome to Bear Creek, a small rural town located in northern Middle Tenne, along, of all places, Bear Creek. Bear Creek is a major tributary of the Tenne River. Located north of the Barony of Meltonhill, Bear Creek near a rich deposit of unobtanium and at a site foretold by the words of local mystic John Henry, a steel-drivin’ man who said “a great city will be built on Bear Creek… one which will can the fanciest feast ever to be feasted upon.” And, true to his word, this great...

Mind The Gap

By Schulmanator,

The Wirdleplex: Revealed The Wirdleplex [The Wir'-dul-pleks] (n): a sprawling military complex in the far southeast of Schulmania; reminiscent of Area 51 but with more charm and fewer aliens. Now that we have gained entrance to The Wirdleplex, it is time for us to see just what the Schulmania National Military and the Bureau of Feline Affairs Military Command have been up to in this top secret and highly secure area. Once we are through the first security checkpoint, we arrive at the second one. The North...

Canal Plus

By Schulmanator,

Middle Tenne: Canal Plus Inskip is a town in the easternmost corner of the Middle Tenne District and sits along the scenic and strategic Clinch River. Founded by Fleet Captain von Bremerhaven, Inskip features a whole lot of canals. Why? They better question is why not?! Let’s see what is going on in the riverside town today. Lots of narrow streets accompany the many canals. It makes a great setting for today's Easter Egg Hunt! Here we see the Mattamuskeet Motel. It’s named for the proprietor (Matt) and his...

Here Comes The Sun!

By Schulmanator,

East Tenne: Here Comes the Sun! Up until now, just about every town in Tenne has been along or very near the coast or a major river. That is, until Sunbright. This interior town is not near a river or the sea. Rather, it is at a crossroads along the Tenne-Wirdleonia border. Here, a north-south road from the Tenne River crosses into Wirdleonia on its path south to Schulmanukau. And, an east-west road passes through, connecting the town to the Tenne coast and on into Schulmanidad and points east. Where these...

Improbable

By Schulmanator,

Improbable Not long ago, massive attacks against Schulmania looked to give Queensferry strong momentum toward ultimate victory… But, all is not lost. The spirit of Schulmania may be saddened by these losses, but it is not broken. We WILL prevail. And, bold action taken months ago (see “Insertion” chapter) has borne fruit and delivered a significant and improbable victory to our feline friends. Back in the beginning of the year, a plan developed by Admiral Hestorb and Governor-General Franciflora and...

50 First Dates

By Schulmanator,

East Tenne: 50 First Dates The second arrondissement of the national capital, adjacent to the Royal Quarter, is the Feline Quarter. The Feline Quarter is the home of the magnificent Bureau of Feline Affairs palace, which serves as the administrative headquarters for BFA activities in Schulmania and its colonies. The district centers around this landmark and its extensive gardens, but contains far more than just a palace. The bustling and densely developed district will be explored in multiple updates, as...

Gilded Quarter

By Schulmanator,

East Tenne: Gilded Quarter The new national capital region opened to the public July 1st. The city is not yet complete, but government offices are opening around the city and many residential and commercial districts are now operational. This is our first look at the vast new capital.

We are looking at Pellissippi Island, which hosted the town of Hammers and a military installation before they...

East Wirdleonia: Visiting Baby Coco Everyone remembers the übercute 2.5 week old baby kitten Coco. And, we all know that she has captivated the hearts of all who meet or see her due to her sweetness and cuteness. Thanks to her massive fan base and cuteness, she has been appointed the new governor of East Wirdleonia. But, since she is so young, she is not quite prepared for the hectic lifestyle of a district governor. Governor Cawale of Atkinos has been appointed as Coco's regent. One of Cawale's first...

New Arlenes: Ten Thousand Wishes Schulmania’s East Coast is back in operation! Our main port facilities on the Devonshire coast were taken over by remain occupied. We have had to funnel naval and commercial operations out of one tiny port in East Atkinos for several years. Now, with the annexation of The Northlands, Schulmania has outflanked the enemy and established a significant maritime presence on the coast once again. The first city on the mainland in Mookimia is the city of New Arlenes, located in...

Doi Agaa

By Schulmanator,

Central Mookimia: Doi Agaa The Central Mookimia District hosts several towns and is bisected by a large, strategic body of water. A rocky outcrop, the Schloßberg, houses a castle. The castle, Katzenschloß, is the seat of power for the district government. And it's pretty cool too. The governor has a home and office in the castle and most government functions for the district are conducted here. The Mookimia Turnpike offers transit connections to the port of Purkeyluo to the north and Franzikoi District to...

The Wirdleplex: Preview The sharp-eyed among us must have seen it for some time now. But, one would have to be both sharp-eyed and observant to actually pick up on the secret hidden in plain sight. In Schulmania’s high stakes survival game with Queensferry, most military statistics heavily favor the enemy. So, we need something to help level the field. Home field advantage, after all, only goes so far. If we were to build some sort of major military installation, the enemy would spot it with their...

Celebrating 2000 Comments! Schulmania Volume 3 has been growing steadily over the last two point something years. Not too long ago, it hit over 100,000 views. And now, it has hit 2,000 comments. But, due to a glitch in the forum software, my official record of posts and views (the Manage My Journals page) does not agree with the forum list. The variance has been as low as 4 to as high as 11, where it is now. So, post #2011 on my list is the same as #2000 on the main one. Therefore, we have two milestone...

Wildcat Den

By Schulmanator,

Middle Tenne: Wildcat Den Blankenship is a town straddling the Clinch River in Middle Tenne. The Tenne Avenue Bridge bisects the town as it crosses the river. The town is unusual in that it does not have its own port. It is connected to road to the Meltonhill area and makes use of the multiple ports located there. This decision by the City Planning Office may herald the era of regional ports or perhaps doom Blankenship to slow economic growth. Only time will tell. The town site was selected to connect both...
