Monkchester Q&A

[Monkchester]

It has come to my attention that Monkchester's 'worldbuilding' is scattered across thousands of posts, and I haven't done the whole 'factbook' thing to any significant extent. This is kind of relevant because people still talk about 'cities' when attempting to invade Monkchester without even knowing that, first of all, it's a city-state. So you can ask questions about Monkchester in this thread.

[The Way Sun Cooperation]

Just want to mention you should probably move this to Factbooks and National Information.

[Vastiuq]

Why are you obsessed with slavery

[Rylland]

Do you have plans to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization or an alliance friendly to the West?

[Cyptopir]

Why are you obsessed with slavery

Fr. They do absolutely nothing else, which, unsurprisingly, doesn't make for good worldbuilding.
Is it, like, just trolling? Or do you genuinely believe this one-dimensional "haha I'm slaver and evil and I demand slaves!!!" RP is good?
(fyi, in case this is all just to get a condemnation; people get condemnations for playing the bad guy well, not for just being the bad guy.)

I saw another Q&A thread outside there.

Why are you obsessed with slavery

What sort of question is that? Monkchester has slavery.

You seem to make slavery this countrys only and biggest personalty. I have no problem with slavery IC wise to further make your country a hell-hole. But dang man this is extreme.

What do you mean, "doesn't make for good worldbuilding"? The Monkcestrian economy is built on slavery. Slavery is very unpopular with the rest of the world. This is neither trolling nor condemnation bait: I remember the days when slavers were everywhere. I even started out RPing by declaring war on one of them.

Monkchester is built upon the slave trade, yes.

So the answer is that you're a relic from a past era of RP, which probably died out due to reasons we can all see. Huh.

What reasons would those be?

I bet it's just gonna be some made-up reasons. I wouldn't listen if I were you...

[Monkchester]

I am planning to relaunch the Pro-Slavery Alliance.

Low quality, for the most part. One liners structured to look like more than one line is still one line. I'd advise you spend more time writing actual stories and less time thinking up the worst thing you can do to slaves without going past NS rules.

Anyway, this is a thread for you to answer questions, not me.

Sounds... fun???? I ain't for slavery, but you sound like... not that bad of a guy.

Aaaand, I'm right. Shocker...

So here's a question I was wondering what's the history of your nation and how slavery is integrated, as I haven't really found out much of if any of the thousands of posts your lore is in.
Edit, is it like Heldervins style or is it closer to my nations kind of indentured servitude

[Western European Khilafat]

What's your stance on Andalusians and or Muslims?
Cab we Jihad you real quick?

[The Vorindun]

Say that you're an adolescent wannabe edgelord without saying that you're an adolescent wannabe edgelord.

"One liners structured to look like more than one line is still one line"? That is nonsensical. By definition it cannot be a one-liner. The rest is equally bizarre: I do not spend my time "thinking up the worst thing [I] can do to slaves without going past NS rules". You are making assumptions which do not reflect the reality.

Say that you're an adolescent wannabe edgelord without saying that you're an adolescent wannabe edgelord.

How so?

Monkchester has a long line of victories in that department. The Sultan's head is still on the Eastgate all these years later.

I will reply to this; not deliberately ignoring it or anything.

As the literal Andalusian Caliphate in 1962 CE I object to that statement.

[Arelont]

I'm doing something different..


How was your nation founded? When?

Another misconception is that Monkchester the city-state is dependent upon slavery: the slave trade is where the money comes from, but there actually aren't that many slaves in Monkchester except for those waiting to be delivered elsewhere. You will note references to a Monkcestrian working class throughout my posts but remarkably few to slaves that are present.

If you live in Monkchester you do not really notice slaves. It's similar to the children mining cobalt—it's indirect.

How was your nation founded? When?

Monkchester was first discovered and settled by monks in the 8th century.

It doesn't seem very indirect if it's the government sole focus in terms of foreign and domestic affairs, how exactly is the nation anything but a neo-confederate dreamland? And why does the nation keep trying to pick fights when it's been established as a city-state, and therefore can't possible have a sizeable military? Is it just a incredibly unrealistic sized city?
