Most citizens, being machines, are asexual. Many Aeiouians are highly confused at what homosexual biological people are looked down upon in some societies.

Surrogate technology allows a user to control a bioengineered body remotely. Originally used exclusively for espionage, the technology has found itself in the hands of the extremely rich.

Every single person (except for frontier colonists) in the Alexandrian Empire has access to technology which allows them to pass from one body to the next.

We have no body swapping technology, the closest we have is the ability to regenerate any corpse we want from any condition back to life. For some reason we only use it on low ranking goons or the most wanted men in America.

Almost all Aeiouians do not inhabit bodies directly. Most AIs simply pilot them from a distance, using our instant communications technologies. Not only does this have obvious safety benefits, but it allows said AIs to have much more advanced computers to live on, since space and power are not issues.

Once, in a confrontation with a less technologically sophisticated civilization, they learned the hard way that Alexandrians are not fazed by melee weapons, and Alexandrians are definitely not fazed by bayonet charges.

AN: We've become so hard to exterminate that the idea of being totally wiped out of laughable.

You're future tech? That makes it worse!
You could literally just rewrite their personality to make them not gay.
You could literally just use their augs to stop any pleasure response from occurring.

But, instead, you're going to cut out bits of their brain, and waste cranial space making a neural implant to do the job of the brain for it... :palm:

TG me if you want more info. The definition of lobotomy has changed over the three hundred or so years.

People are not augmented in preference to see if they are spiritually corrupt.

While Perrytopia's culture and various traditions have been heavily influenced by an old polytheistic religion, most of its citizens do not actually adhere to any particular faith. That does not, however steer us away from respecting the right to a person's freedom of conscience; so long as one's faith does not require one to violate Perrytopian law and limit or deny the codified liberties of others, it is welcomed here.

Nothing to see here, folks. Please move along...
What's up with all these folks nowadays making nations that don't use NS stats? It's always "Multiversal Soul-Snatchers" this or "Tier Infinity Poly-Galactic Mercs" that. I mean, stats are the whole point, right? You know, the thing that makes this different from your run-of-the-mill role-playing forum? Yeah, they're flawed, but its the ridiculousness that makes this game absolutely FANTASTIC
And copying taking creative liberties with Warhammer 40K or Eldritch nonsense doesn't make you as unique as you think...

Remember to enjoy your stay, and please don't feed the wildlife.
