The Party will provide you with a wife at the appropriate time, or you can apply in advance to the People's Commissariat for the Regulation of Domestic Harmony. In the People's Democracy created by the Great Leader, Father to his People, Defender of the Revolution, Liberator of the Workers, all jobs are of equal value and are therefore all "decent" no matter in what capacity you serve the Revolution and it's Founder, who works hardest of all. Malcontents who seek to disrupt the New Order must face the righteous anger of the People. But even the counter-revolutionaries and enemy spies who populate the labour camps and punishment battalions learn to love the New Order.

it's not a Kingdom, it's a Peoples Democratic Republic loosely based on an arbitrary synthesis of autocracy, benevolent paternalism, military dictatorship and neo-Marxism.

*Spontaneously applauding rhythmically with other masses packed into the Festival Way Arena of Revolutionary Martyrs*

Masses chanting.......
"Uncle Taw! Uncle Taw! Dear Leader! Dear Leader!"
"Uncle Taw! Uncle Taw! Dear Leader! Dear Leader!"
"Uncle Taw! Uncle Taw! Dear Leader! Dear Leader!"

Banners flutter proclaiming

"What's Good for Tawakalna is Good for the Revolution."
"Dear Leader: The only voice of the people. The Voice of Democracy!"
"Taw's thoughts are our thoughts!"
"Morrisons are your best for bargains!"
"He looks good in skirts!"

*More mass cheering and marching abound*
"Ey up Taw! Ey up Taw! Ey up Taw! Ey up Taw! Ey up Taw!

Fade to black as the cheering and sound of massed marching footsteps flood the sound stage.

Bah Marxist drivel only suitable for consumption by communist idealists with little foresight for the basic human compulsion of greed.

In the Empire of Mustantopia the benevolent Emperor Mustang will have genetically modified ape genes to levels whereby our simian brethren are able to perform the basic functions of the poor and downtrodden. Societies poor will then be removed from their former duties and placed into a higher learning program whereby they are program......umm...taught to deal with higher duties within society. Those not responsive to the higher learning program will undergo a small operation to remove the insolent portions of the brain and returned to simian society to perform their previous tasks. Simian society will governed by the Empires circus freaks, who will be considered rulers and will be rewarded with shiny objects when production quotas are met.

Higher society and those successfully achieving distinction in the higher learning program will be able to better themselves by bettering the Empire. Citizens of the Empire will be given a rank based upon their primary function and social standing, these ranks will be recorded in a computer chip implanted into the brain. Every citizen will be given a rank of recruit at birth and will only be able to advance themselves through their primary function. The citizen will choose their primary function themselves, but they must pass an interview with the board of administrators of their chosen profession. Failing an interview the citizen may contest the decision by appealing directly to the Emperor. If the citizen displays significant drinking prowess or is of the female gender and has specific abilities in areas of hotness then their application will be reconsidered.

Emperor Mustang is the law, his word is final and beyond contestation. Each legal case will be brought before Emperor Mustang's League of Judges and justice dealt with brutal and swift momentum. Defendants will be required to represent themselves as legal representation is banished within Mustantopia and is punishable by flesh eating virus.

Cigarette’s, Alcohol and Red Meat will become major food groups and will be considered important to maintain a healthy life style. However, supermarkets supplying tough, grisly meat will be shutdown, burned and its employee’s brains modified and sent to live in simian society.

Any chaos that ensues from Emperor Mustang’s reckless attitude towards government will be deemed the product of “Radical Extremists”. A scapegoat will be hunted down inturn, and displayed before the public during his or hers execution.

All hail Emperor Mustang and his reign of Terror!!!

Oh Great Leader of the Revolution!

There is a foul stench coming from that imperial swineherd in Mustantopia. There also are some useful technologies employed there to better instill purity of thought and deed among our own citizens.

We must send in revolutionary insurgents to form cells and to turn these mindless monarchist lackeys into comrade cadres of the Taw Way.

Oh. BTW, the gadfly among us is of no concern. His voice is weak and singular. We need not concern ourselves with this Spectacle person. It is the Mustantopians that are the more direct threat.

It is my ferm belive that a utopia can not exsist. Everyone has diffrent theroys on what a perfect world is. So, no one utopia can exsist. Thats why I think we'll all have our own personal utopia eventualy.

Yes, but I have satire and my plays to spread mockery against this totalitarian state. The people will laugh in your face before they drop to their knees before you and Tawakalna.

What? When we're dead and are unable to complain anymore?

Great Leader,

I have the perfect foil to this Spectre. A song.

In North Staffordshire
Great North Staffordshire
Her Leader sleeps tonight,

Oh Oh Oh

In North Staffordshire
Mighty North Staffordshire
Dear Leader sleeps tonight,

*hup-hup-hup*

Ey up Taw,
a weemoway,
a weemoway
a weemoway

Ey up Taw,
a weemoway,
a weemoway
a weemoway

/etc.

lol. I saw the thread, the title, the poster, the posts already, and realized what a discussion this would be before my DSL got here. Perhaps I sit this one out. Might hurt my fingers typing too fast

EDIT: On closer inspection I find Taw is gaining minions. Must find out why...
EDIT2: Ghasp! *Joins sS*

films and media are the remit of the Propaganda Ministry.

@Indy, There are a couple of things that could be better
for instance:

*Spontaneously applauding rhythmically with other masses packed into the Festival Way Arena of Revolutionary Martyrs*

Masses chanting.......
"Uncle Taw! Uncle Taw! Dear Leader! Dear Leader!"
"Uncle Taw! Uncle Taw! Dear Leader! Dear Leader!"
"Uncle Taw! Uncle Taw! Dear Leader! Dear Leader!"

This could be the same as the ancient old Chant: Sulach Sullille SuGarth Suchkei <Pronounce:Su-Lach, Su-Lai, Su-Garak, Such-Kai>, it means: All hail to our Master. And I believe that it would be a better chant then quoted.
Btw, be a better leader then Duncan I, or you better watch out for military commander-types like MacBeth

On a side-note: Can I apply for the role of Merlin????
