Dragon Hunting is considered to be the most dangerous sport, even going to war is safer, but does do win, acquire a great wealth, since dragons sit on gold and gems; it was very prestigious. Today, it is viewed as foolish and stupid.

New Polypontia used to worship dragons!

Though we don't worship them, the Dragons are seen as sacred beings here and are under the Aspect's personal protection.

We think (we're not sure) that we made dragons extinct when we bombarded a Utan-occupied moon to death in the 2270s.

We do not use make up only military dress and combat boots.

Hedonism isn't considered positive in New Polypontia!

Worshipping gods blindly is unacceptable behaviour here.

Worshipping Gods is considered beneath most Polypontians!(Most of us worship our Ancestors!)

We have no magic and any rituals involving mass sacrifice would get you executed.

Prisoners are forced to either tithe large amounts of blood, or stay in a cold, dark dungeon!

Edit: Any Polypontian who leaves the country are made to bare-knuckle box ogres!

People that are arrested are usually executed on the spot.

Anti-citizens tend to choose to die heroically in battle, but remembered by no one.

When we capture prominent Terran families, we make a parent decide which of their kids gets to live. Threaten to kill them all if they don't decide. After they pick a child, we kill the other one, the living child goes through the rest of their life knowing they were the one who's parents wanted killed; they may turn to the side of the Nexum or commit suicide after this.

The 'government' is actually a small group of corporations who use their massive levels of wealth enforce the national religion (literally worshipping the government/state), and people are told what to think, how to think, and what to buy. Anyone who disagrees gets shown the barrel of a gun.

We don't really eat walrus here, preferring beef and other meats. Walrus is sometimes eaten on special occasions, however.

Walruses were tragically hunted to extinction centuries ago, by humans!

AIs are more efficient than YOU. As per our beliefs.

We consider pacifism to be a logical ideology, since it ignores all of the outdated instincts of baseliners regarding violence and territoriality.

by **Doom Legions** » Thu May 21, 2015 5:21 am

We see pacifism as a form of idiocy. Violence made the Multiverse, and it sustains it. Without it there would be nothing.

by **Vaniri** » Thu May 21, 2015 5:23 am

Militarism is seen as bad for the economy

We absolutely agree. Nothing more philosophical about DL other than this one.
