People's United Visit (OVER)

[Royal Calathonia]

"You're welcome, comrade," replied the servant and went down to the kitchen and handed the note, and they began to make Ferdinand's breakfast. Meanwhile, Kabesu and his wife were watching Good Morning Syvorji, and showed a propaganda video, claiming that it was the most open and democratic breakfast show in the world, and it said that all others are just nothing more than propaganda videos, and was said in Syvorjin. Kabesu frowned because it may offend Calathonians, especially Ferdinand I, but his wife loved the propaganda video, and then went to showing more propaganda.

Of course, the Emperor wasn't even watching Good Morning Syvorji. Anyways, he then switched the channel , on his television,to RCS (or CBS, as it's second name was). On RCS was the morning news program The Morning News Show (it would be renamed The Early Show in 1986). This news program was showing a morning performance, of one of the Beetles members, Paul McCarthy.

[Syvorji]

Finally, the breakfast were made and the same servant that made the order came back with Ferdinand's breakfast, saying, "Comrade, here is your breakfast. Eat well, and eat right." He smiled and went downstairs. Meanwhile, Juna Kabesu had his meal at the dining room while his wife had it in front of the TV, both having pancakes for breakfast with a glass of milk, and were eating their breakfast, with his wife proud at Good Morning Syvorji.

Emperor Ferdinand began eating on his egg omlet, while watching The Morning News Show. Commericals were on. There was a commerical on baking soda, and another on a sort of hair gel.

[Syvorji]

After finishing their breakfast, the doors open, revealing Kabesu's cousin and his 2 year old niece, named Hundayo and Kayda respectively, and after discussion, Kabesu and his wife turned off the TV, and his wife picked Kayda up while he knocked and said, "Sorry Ferdinand, but we are introducing my niece, who is going to be with us today."

By that point, the Emperor had finished his omlet, and was now eating his sausage. He said "Come in." He then turned down the volume on the television. By then, it was 7:30.

[Syvorji]

His wife came in with Kayda in her hands and Kabesu also came in. Juna Kabesu said, "This is my 2 year old niece, Kayda, daughter of my cousin, Hundayo." Kayda said, "Sojena!," meaning, "Unite!" in Syvorjin, and waved. His wife said, "She is going to be with us today, her mom will come for supper and then to take her home." She then stared at Ferdinand.

She then stared at Ferdinand.

Ferdinand nodded and smiled at the little girl. He finished his sausage and began drinking his orange juice. He said "I will be getting ready in about ten minutes.."

[Syvorji]

"Okay comrade," said Kabesu and they left the room. He, his wife and Kayda went downstairs, to watch some children's programming. At 9:30, a servant went up and said, "Comrade, it is time for you to get ready to go see a common worker. I do not want you to spread rumors that we live in desolate conditions, which is why we are going there," with a smile, and left the room.

The Emperor turned off the tv. It was still on RCS, which by then was on local news (because of distance, the local news was the closest television station in Royal Calathonia to Syvorji). Local news would remain on until 10:00. He got up and said "How long will this take? I want to be back here by 12:00, so I can see The Young and the Restless."

[Syvorji]

"It shall take around 15 minutes to get there and back," said the servant. "At 1 pm, a military parade will happen, which you can watch or not, and if you want to watch, you can watch from the main balcony since yours looks away from the main boulevard or from ground level, where the Kabesu's will be." Meanwhile, they were getting ready to go, and getting Kayda ready to go on the trip.

"I will not watch the parade, for that time is my favorite show, As the World Turns. Now let's go. I want this over before 12:00." He then put on a coat and began walking towards the door.

[Syvorji]

A tram was in front and they dashed to the tram, with Kabesu paying the 5 shondol fare, for everyone and expected Ferdinand to arrive and sit with them, and they sat down near the back of the tram.

Ferdinand came in, but sat at the front instead. He wanted to get this over with.

[Syvorji]

The tram was heading to the flat, and soon, after 15 minutes of smooth travelling, they arrived at the flat, and went out, expecting Ferdinand to follow, and waited for him, so they will go up the elevator to the flat of Uoran Iksyvch, who is having a day off for the interview. Meanwhile, Uoran was organizing his flat, to welcome the Kabesu's and Ferdinand to his flat.

Meanwhile, Uoran was organizing his flat, to welcome the Kabesu's and Ferdinand to his flat.

OOC: Syvorji, can the flat be like a slum....

IC:

Ferdinand got out, but saw the flat and said "What a hellhole to live in!" To him, the slum was horrible, crowded with other slums and such. He walked relcutantly towards it, seeing the dirt on the streets.

[Syvorji]

OOC: Sure.

IC: They went in and went on the elevator but it broke down on the 3rd floor but the doors opened and so they walked up the stairs to the 4th floor, where Uoran's "flat" is. However, Kabesu replied, "It may be shabby but there is no beggars nor a homeless person in our country," with a smile. Meanwhile, Uoran finished organizing and waited for them to come in.

[Royal Calathonia]

OOC: Sure.

IC: They went in and went on the elevator but it broke down on the 3rd floor but the doors opened and so they walked up the stairs to the 4th floor, where Uoran's "flat" is. However, Kabesu replied, "It may be shabby but there is no beggars nor a homeless person in our country," with a smile. Meanwhile, Uoran finished organizing and waited for them to come in.

OOC: Flats being slums can also show how poor your people are.

IC:

Ferdinand frowned and said "Well, Kabesu, this is what you're people live in! Little fucking slums! My own people live in modern and nice houses and apartments. And there must be one homeless person in your nation..." He saw the dirt on the walls and the shabby floors.

[Syvorji]

Once they arrived, Kabesu knocked, and Uoran turned on his TV and once he heard the knock, he said, "Come on in, comrade," and they came inside the flat. To those who live in Syvorji, like Kabesu and his family, they feel it is modern but to a foreigner, it is blatant propaganda. Kabesu said, "Hello, Uoran. I am Juna Kabesu, President of Syvorji and this is Emperor Ferdinand I of Calathonia, and I praise this fine modern flat," with a laugh at the end, noting the sarcasm. "It looks very nice," and he muttered, "not."

Ferdinand nodded towards Uoran. He noticed how everybody greeted others with the Communist term "Comrade". The Emperor did not like this at all. He looked around, and saw how horrible the apartment's condition was. Wallpaper was peeling off, grime was on the sides, and he swore he saw a rat going under the floor.

[Syvorji]

Uoran frowned and said, "Let me you tell my history, Comrade Ferdinand. In the 1940's, we were nomads, poor, homeless and without jobs. The state gave us jobs and a flat, and with the wage usually at 75 shondols per month, I am able to afford a TV, a fridge, couches, air conditioning and decent beds. It is one of the high-tech flats and is so modern," oblivious to what is going around him. "Today, we are living well, we have food, and even if it is shabby, this is a modern age, the Golden Age of life and we thank the State for doing this." Kabesu replied, "You are welcome, comrade." Kayda smiled and his wife released Kayda and Kayda ran to Uoran, and he sat her on his lap and said, "My comrade, you are beautiful. I wish you luck in bringing Syvorji to being a golden nation," and after a hug, he let go of Kayda and Kayda ran back to her great-aunt.

The Emperor made a nasty laugh. He then said to Uoran "Now, Sir, don't call me "Comrade". That's a Stalinist term. Second, 75 shondals equals, what, 10 Imperial Marks in Royal Calathonia! That's barely enough to buy yourself a packet of chicken! Third, this house is a slum, and your apartment is filthy and horrible. And fourth, it appears your government...controls all industry, all media....everything. That's such a unfair and Communist society." He then aited for Uoran's response.

[Syvorji]

Uoran said, "You know, comrade, we Syvorjins call everyone comrade. And that is an excuse to spread propaganda. We, and by we, I meant the common workers sell items that we need cheaply, so the masses can purchase them. In fact, thanks for noticing, I am planning on having it cleaned up soon, so some domestic help will come in a few weeks," and sighed. "Besides, it is shabby but it is nice in all. Now, about everything, the State controls a lot of things so we can get things cheap, so we can work and not worry about some stupid landlord trying to tax the hell out of us!" Kabesu smiled at what Uoran said, and his wife asked Uoran, "May we sit down?" Uoran replied, "Sure," and Uoran sat down with Kayda sitting on her lap.

Kabesu smiled at what Uoran said, and his wife asked Uoran, "May we sit down?" Uoran replied, "Sure," and Uoran sat down with Kayda sitting on her lap.

Ferdinand said "Oh come now, worker. Do you actually believe that propganda, boy? For one thing, the State controlling everything, well, at least on your economy, can..be determental to your country. I hear you still use primitive technology from a long time ago. I also know that goods that your government-owned factories produce, are not as great in quality as Capitalist-produced goods. And you only have one choice on everything! There is not hundreds of brands of each product, just one! That is limiting in choice!" He stayed near the door.

[Syvorji]

Uoran sighed and sadly remarked, "You have blindly followed the path of capitalism, comrade." He sighed and then said, "Actually, our products are better quality than any capitalist factory and that we are using modern technology. I have a VCR as well, comrade, so let me use it and use a film to prove that your propaganda is false." He turned on the TV, and inserted a VHS cassette into his VCR, the title being, "My Socialist Country," a film about how Syvorji has improved since 1935 and that it has one the highest living standards in the country, and that thanks to the state, no beggars and homeless people are in the country, and even talked about their education system, which is compulsory from the final year of Semabian (Kindergarten) to the final year of Luniki, and even talked about healthcare, and Uoran, Kabesu's wife and Kabesu's niece were watching. Kabesu sighed and asked, "Ferdinand, how are you doing?"

Kabesu sighed and asked, "Ferdinand, how are you doing?"

Emperor Ferdinand I of course knew the tape was propaganda. He then said to Uoran "Oh come now. You honestly want me to believe in that false video! Of course, there are homeless people in your nation. And of course, your GDP is relatively low compared to Royal Calathonia's, last I heard. I also know that Capitalism has it's own faults, but Communism more so. And I demand you don't call me Comrade."
