The tallest building in Lialoth is the central tower of Eteri Abbey. It's roughly twenty stories high, the residence of the Head Abbot and the meeting place of the Council.
I'm RPing a distant past tech nation populated nearly exclusively by three foot tall bipedal mice who are undergoing subtle speciation due to long lasting social policies.
If this is too ridiculous for you, you might want to opt out of RPing with me.

Actually, I don't know. My nation's residents average roughly three feet tall, so every story would actually be proportionately smaller. I'd say roughly half as tall. Let's say, six feet.

So 20 stories in Lialoth is roughly 120 feet, or 36.576 meters.

Actually, I don't know. My nation's residents average roughly three feet tall, so every story would actually be proportionately smaller. I'd say roughly half as tall. Let's say, seven feet.

So 20 stories in Lialoth is roughly 140 feet, or 42.672 meters.


I guess everything in Lialoth is really small!b :lol:

A lot of things are small due to the smallness of the residents. Others are small due to technology limitations.

Tall buildings in the tech level Lialoth is tend to be structurally unstable, stone affairs. That's why things tend to be built outwards instead of upward. Such as Lialoth's sprawling abbeys.

Located in the central district of Rinasa's capital Ferrand, Aefesia Tower is tallest building in Avacia, rising up to 150m awkwardly in Ferrand's otherwise short cityscape. It is an office tower, however at the base of the tower is the luxury retail mall La Galerie.

The tallest building in the Radiatian Federation is the Dreamtower in Das Engel, Amentra, which stands at a whopping 801m, with 123 floors.

The building took nearly 10 years to complete, beginning while Radiatia was under communism (originally being named the 'Socialist Dream Tower') and completed after the transition to liberal democracy to become - ironically - a symbol of New Radiatia.

Those "tiny buildings" next to it are predominantly 50-60 floor skyscrapers, to give you an idea of how high it is compared to other buildings.

Inzygrad Kremlin, the walled complex surrounding administration, currently contains the tallest structures in our nation. Notably, the Unity Tower (Башня единства) stands 58 standard storeys in height, with an overall height of 194 metres, and has served as the hallmark of the Inzy government complex for the last fifty years.

While this structure does not seem particularly tall by international standards, the majority of our urban buildings are of Khrushchyovka style (Soviet-era low apartment complexes). Plans are currently underway to develop larger infrastructure as our economic and political capacities expand.

The State of Goldentines Aurum tower, standing at around 1875 meters. It was completed earlier this year, and is the first building in Eaglleia to go above one and a half Kilometers in height. Sunnia's new Twin towers are expected to go above this height, but they will not be completed at least for another year. The Previous record holder was the Einean luxury complex apartments, at 1420 metres in height, followed several other buildings. The first building to go over 1000 m was the Empire Eagle building, and 1012 metres. (Eaglleia was founded in 1012, Earth years, thus the unusual height.) The Original tallest buildings (all in BC) was the Sunnian Great Palace, at 342 feet (Not shaped like a Prism, more like a Ziggurat-You know, shaped like big steps.) The Goldentine watchtower stood at 213 feet, and the Obelisk of Foigotep (Foigotep is now a part of the State of Sunnia, Provincial Capital of Fogia Province) stood at 141 feet. Well, they all still stand, actually, preserved through time.

The Tallest Sub-Orbital Building in the Republics is probably Olympus Park Place in Sierrium, though the space elevators in most of our cities and colonies easily dwarf even it.

I'll post a picture of it later I think.

It's 912 meters tall and on the coast of Solin, the largest city, as an island. It's part office building, part apartment complex, part grocery store, and part symbol. It was originally created to symbolize a brighter future for Ulvena during the 1970s when Ulvena had the greatest technological boom in its history since the Great Change.
