     Two stick figures talk about about a book:
     1: SO YOUR STORY IS SET IN A LAND THAT WAS THE HEART OF AN ANCIENT EMPIRE THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO THAT JUST VANISHED SOMEHOW. YAWN.
     2: WELL…
     1: THEN FIVE HUNDRED YEARS AGO THEY ALL GOT REALLY INTO ART FOR SOME REASON.
     2: YEAH.
     1: THEN LATER THEY WERE PART OF A BIG WAR ON THE SIDE OF EVIL. UH-HUH, SUPER ORIGINAL…
     2: UM…
     1: OH. AND THERE'S AN ENTIRELY SEPARATE COUNTRY INSIDE THE CAPITAL CITY THAT'S RUN AS A THEOCRATIC MONARCHY?

     @GreenSkyOverMe @gsllc How about the UK. It's a monarchy, but the monarch can't actually do anything politics. And in the middle of the capital is a square mile that is not part of the capital. It's a separate city. Or maybe a separate country; that seems to be poorly defined. And the people who run it like to perform odd Masonic type rituals. Oh, and all the money is in that square mile.
