Instead of going on westward I have decided to take a detour and will showcase a different part of my city. But I have not finished preparing the details yet so i can only update by next week, or if permited earliest, on Sunday. With that note I leave with this little teaser of what is to come. See you all when I see you.

And thanks for the comment. ____________________________________________________________________________ Author's note: Here is the 4th update. Next update next week. Thanks for reading everyone. A HISTORY Its been many years since High Lord Gregory Salavian took power as the very first High Lord of the Diesmaran Empire. Establishing laws, writing up the constitutions while building up progress in the nation. He became the first iconic symbol of the Diesmaran Empire and and inspiration, as well as aspration of how a leader should be. However like all men, great or small, they soon meet the equalizer of all. High Lord Gregory Salavian was soon afterwards laid to rest. His resting place may be found in Many years past on as the next High Lord, High Lord Fredrick Bahmad took charge and it was he who then orchestrated more major developments and had began to expand the city branching out eastwards from the capital city Jenova. We will learn more about this later on but what interests us is the next High Lord that came after Fredrick Bahmad. Her name was High Lord Kimiyo Taidasu once before was a scholar in the fields of Political Science and Urban architectual studies as her major fields of expertise, working as the head of research in a local company in the Diesmaran Empire. She was soon chosen and eventually given the title and power of the new High Lord of the Diesmaran Empire. Instead of expanding the development continuing further to east , she set her sights on the west. Her reason as to why she made the decision was unclear, but unofficial reports during the time quoted her saying the following: "I always liked the beaches on that side, so I think it would look nice if we built the cites there." So on that note, the expansion moving westward began and the first area to be developed was the bay next to the city of Jenova and north of the Government capital. The area was named, Jenova bay....yes....she was not very good at naming things as well. ===================== Lets view the development of this particular city district as how High Lord Kimiyo Taidasu overwatched the project. First was the placing of the rail tracks for the expansion of the local mass rail transit system. And as how the Diesmaran Empire is famous for its rapid development and construction, within the week, everything else went up as well.

nottheboss-Thank you I'm glad you like it. vivydu29- Thanks gabry85- Hey again. Thanks for the comment. I'm happy that you like it. Author's note: next update will be some time soon perhaps around this week. Heading up north. Not much History there, but still has some important establishments.

dogma555: I know for a fact that it is one of cerulean's buildings. This is where I got it: LINK Unfortunately the one i know of is for the CAM only. Ill keep on looking

I feel the dread of authority and dictatorship rule. You captured the orwellian image well. Very good.

That earthquake mustve been massive. 6.0 is no joke. And I love how you did the train stations. Very inventive.

dogma555: Lol the first one is my pic. So thanks for visiting my CJ. And that building would be one of which i re-lotted using Yuhisa's buildings. Its a prop that i got from a download off his site, Here is the direct link download: DOWNLOAD Its a 13mb download but just to save you space, the model file for that is ModCoruscant3 So just keep the model file and the desc file if you just want that one and make it for yourself in the Lot editor. Hope that helps. Now my request. I want these: I know they are Yuhisa's ones as well. But i can't find them on his site. Anyone can provide a direct download?

KingTitan: Lol Thanks. Your far too kind Connorc24: Im glad you liked it gabry85: Well thats a relief. Hope you can use it. A HISTORY As the nation grew it was finally at one point that a more organized system of government was required. At this point the colony had grown exceptionally large that it needed to help relieve the ever growing population along with its problems. Issues began to arise in the new small nation. Crime was increasingly becoming more rampant. Order was non-present and the whole city was starting to fall into a degratory state. So it was at this time the current 'leaders' took charge and responsibility, decided that a new and more official form of goverment needed to be establish. The meeting took place between those who held the most power and highest degree of experience and intellegence, Corporate CEOs, Lead scientists, Researchers, Academic scholars and Renowned Politicians.All in all after debates,tempers flaring and all the ranting, none of which could agree on how would the government be formed. However one person, a vocal and active political theorist and activist, named Gregory Salavian, with his charisma and voicefull opinions went into full swing on the matter. He swayed the many including the populace to what he believes how the government should be formed. His ideology based of the late Jamie Diesmar would be to form a new hybrid of governments one of which that could prove strong, and effective into dealing with all matters while protecting its interests and the interest of the people. He called it the Diesmar theology and as such it gained the support of the many. A new location was set up just to the west around 1km away from the current city Jenova and this would be the area that forms the new government and new capital. As much as a brilliant man Gregory Salavian was in his ideas and theories, he was never a very good namer. As of which he dubbed the capital centre as, Jenova Capital, naming it after the city right next to it.... The new government was established. And soon the new and recognizable banner of the new nation was flown and displayed among the city streets and populace. The government formed was a hybrid of various different kinds of governments making it somewhat unique from the many. It was a hybrid of, Monarchy, Democracy, Dictatorship, Despotism. The leader and head of the new government was given the title of High Lord. His rule was known as the High Lord's governence. Each Governence consisted of several Ministers who headed several different divisions of ministries dealing with several sorts of affairs. The High Lord held the ultimate power and most of many issues had to go trhough him/her, consulting various ministers representative senators. Each High Lord is elected out of several eligible candidates by the candidate. Each candidate is selected based on their background, traits, personality and qualification among many things. In other words a High Lord is selected not in a political party but out of anyone in the Diesmaran Empire who posses traits worthy to be that of a leader to lead a nation. And not many actually qualify. Only selected few with gifted attributes are chosen to even qualify to be considered to be a High Lord and thus only the elite of the Elite are chosen. Being a High Lord is a life time task as of which is the most highest respected post in the new government. Gregory Salavian soon took up head of office and was first to be named the new High Lord. His first order was to grant a new name to the nation. And thus the Diesmaran Empire was officially formed. ________________________________________________________________________ PRESENT DAY Now presently there have been numerous radical changes and add-ons to the current government. Gregory Salavian was the very first High lord chosen among the people of the Diesmaran Empire for the people and by the people. THe Diesmaran Empire have been through over 25 High Lords in History all in the following order: -High Lord Gregory Salavian -High Lord Fredrick Bahmad -High Lord Kimiyo Taidasu -High Lord Orlivian Rollewi -High Lord Kristen Dian -High Lord Charlie Varenigh -High Lord Feranhighen Dimocravich -High Lord Daniel Whitersteen -High Lord Dai Xin Xuen -High Lord Chai Fei Lieu -High Lord Castella Delanova San Piego -High Lord Abdullah Barakhim -High Lord Mojoba Zimwi -High Lord Cartevella Vasidian -High Lord Jaster Riveri -High Lord Tohoma Kazama -High Lord Savari Haistu -High Lord Poliander Garis -High Lord Imni Sakuva -High Lord Lavian Deismo -High Lord Agravella Orion -High Lord Amaista Dasmian -High Lord Ventrivicus Osidon -High Lord Li Mei Ren -High Lord Vincent Vasidian (Current) Now let us move to the city. The city of Jenova Capital is offically the main city of the governing body of the Diesmaran Empire. This site has been the grounds of many protests, celebration, and even at one point in time, a tragedy. The area is basically the island with bridge connections to the main cities on the east and the west. The Island houses Ministry offices and Council Halls. Many foreign diplomats of many nations both on Earth and on Ezra have met here to discuss several foreign policies or simply are just diplomatic visits. This is the main hall. Weekly meetings of ministers and representative senators are often held here to debate over various issue that should come up in the Diesmaran Empire. As you can see as well security is particularly tight in the area. Also on the opposite side of the main hall are what the populace have deemed the Pheonixs of the Empire. Statues of 4 Aestorean Pheonixes, a domestic wildlife bird indigenous to the region and has been adopted as thenational animal. On each statue are inscribed the words, Honor, Valor, Courage, Unity. And thus they have stood there being the symbol of what the Diesmaran Empire stands for. On any occasion where an important leader or icon on Ezra makes a diplomatic visit to the Diesmaran Empire, they are transported to the Capital directly from their own nation should they permit through the 3 colossul cruise ships on dock located south of the Capital Island. And in the centre of the Island lies the Memorial Tower. Inscribed on the Tower are the names of the High Lords who have taken office and were inscribed on the day when they first sit to power. With only 25 High Lords so far, it's still a long way to go. And thus now that we have seen what the governing capital has to offer let us once again get some sleep and wait untill another morning comes. This time we will be heading north to the several smaller districts before proceeding further west. Till then people.
