Ever since the Princess of Aeternum, Princess Yggdrasil were known to the public and has already meet with the Duchess, there is some rumour that has been spreading around that the Duchess has received a favour looks and impression by the Princess. The Princess of Aeternum, is a famous icon in the entire nation, and she well loved by many, as she was seen as the close connection between the people and the royal family, as she is the only member of the royal family that can be seen almost on the daily basis out in the public. And thus when it comes to the precious daughter of Aeternum, everyone would take a looked at her and everything that is going on around her.âOf course, you should..remember it is a big honour to do soâŠ..By the way, CassiâŠI heard that you have become close with Her Highness Princess?..is that true?..â.(Marcella Di Gianna)âAhâŠ.I donât knowâŠmaybe?âŠthe Princess never really said anything about that to meâŠâ.(Duchess Cassi Gust)âIs that so?âŠ.wellâŠabout the princessâŠj
The Kind of Propaganda video that I wanted to make is just like those that can be seen in earth second world war, naturally this propaganda campaign will also be accompanied with many posters and merchandise as well, as everyone bought the posters and merchandise, they would be supporting the Government to fund for the war effort. Not that it was something that Aeternum need, but since we were at it, so why not just collect money from the side and at the same time made the people felt involved and made them feel like they were contributing something. Naturally I would not be selling war bond or anything like that, as the my government doesnât lack any money and funding the war is just nothing to me at the moment.âHmmâŠso we can use the national anthem that were accompanied with the military orchestra bandâŠto make it sound more patrioticâŠand then for the video acting?âŠhow should we do it?âŠâ.(Paul)The aspect of creating a new type of entertainment is just too intriguing for Paul who li
Inside the main recording studio, The Vice President and the President is right now seated behind the famous presidential desk and currently speaking directly to the Camera that were recording both of them. Today is the recording session of the national address, that would be aired at any time soon in perhaps 1 or 2 weeks later, when the war is about to happened.âAfter the meeting with the Aeternum CabinetâsâŠand by the grace of mine and the 5 ministersâŠwe have decided thatâŠthe Alemia Nation tyranny, dishonest and crimes shall be mettle with our military retaliationâŠThe People and Nation of Aeternum will now, hereby declaring a War against the Alemia Nation and itâs leadersâŠand the innocent people of Alemia NationâŠI gave you all my word and promiseâŠas long as you did not rise up and went against me and my army..your lives will be spared, as I know and sure that many of you are the victims of these tyrannical nationâŠlay down, your fights and weapons and stay in your house, then waitâŠas
As days passing by, every industry in Aeternum were on full swing and working at full capacity, after working for 7 days continuously, every industry from foods all the way to ammunition has already achieved their quota and even reached surplus of supply, that will all be designated as the resource for the war campaign, and thus for some industry their workload has returned to normal. Though at the moment since the excitement of the aspect of war were still something that keep everyone anxious, the environment in the work place were just as the same as it was when they were chasing the deadline. But none of the factory superior that were belonged to the Resource Ministry ever clarified the situation, so at this moment the workers didnât even know that if they are working on the war supplies or not.âMadam Minister, all of our industry has reached their quota and all the surplus has been transferred at all of our military resource depotâŠready to be utilized at any momentâŠâ.(Resource Mi
When it comes to Aeternum business, It was safe to say that thanks to the President devise, the Aeternum Resource Ministry owned business and industry were treated like a mega corporation, doing business and transaction with business minded approach rather than representing a nation industry. This is why Aeternum were always profitable and easy to accumulate wealth, unlike any other nation, Aeternum does not, openly using itâs nation power to perform a business, and also opened to do transaction not just to the other nation but also to many of the independent merchant group. Usually for many nation in these era, the government of a nation rarely doing business directly to with the merchant group, as many views the Merchant were just some lowly money grubbing bunch that does not have any honour and loyalty.In some way, that sentiment were true, these merchant groups were rich, and they arenât that loyal either and as always they gained their position of power by buying their position.
For Andrea, she had already have a detailed category of type of people that would never betrayed Aeternum and their nation agreements, and as always those that were of Non-human nation is always be the one that is trustworthy. Mountain Kingdom of Froatlan, Kingdom of Nirewin, Grand Coastal City of Meerkat are the nation that is confirmed to never take advantage of Aeternum misfortune and honesty. These is the small nation that got their status alleviate thanks to Aeternum and thanks to their nature they would always be someone that is easy to speaks too. On the other hands the Nation of Humans and the merchant groups were the one that need to be handled with more finesse, as they greed just like right now were clearly apparent in their face as they were waiting from Andrea for the Minister Kenny Questions.âI hope there would be no issues with the suppliesâŠ.right?.â.(Mountain Kingdom of Froatlan, Finance Minister Kenny)âAbout the availability of the suppliesâŠ.I assured you that there
By now it was already clear to many that the way Aeternum does things is very starkly different from any other people or nation in power do their business. One of the most obvious is that, Aeternum has never been a nation that has itâs people or officials goes around to another nation or organization and begged them to do something for Aeternum benefits. Aeternum never beg, never flatter nor never ever do anything that would put them into a disadvantages. Yet despite the shows of an obvious difference, a lot of people still considered Aeternum to be just like any other nation out there. And at the moment, there is one person in the meeting room before Andrea, who actually thought that Aeternum would need any of these people to thrive.The Swingbell Merchant Group, is definitely a giant in Central Continent economic landscape, they had business that spans all over the continent, with an history that dated back for over 100 years old. Thanks to their enormous wealth and history, they we
Although everyone before Andrea were wearing their best âshockedâ expression on their face, all of them were more or less the same as the current Marcus Swingbell. They all have also tried to do the same thing as the Swingbell group in their business, charging price as they pleased the farther away from Aeternum, and sometimes, they even blamed the Aeternum for the price hiked. Such tactics is normal, but for something like these, such practice as long as you donât get caught, it was all free game for everyone, Aeternum also knew this and doesnât really nitpicking with any of them, but when someone is trying to irritate, the Aeternum, then they would be just like Marcus Swingbell, everything was peeled opened. Marcus Swingbell has overstepped his boundaries, and when that happened, the first one to cut the rope with him, is Dukedom of Angela Finance Minister Jeremy.âDefamation?!âŠDear Lord!âŠMarcus Swingbell!âŠis that true?..â.(Dukedom of Angela Finance Minister Jeremy)âWhat?âŠMinister

Writers eager to bring their stories to life. Technicians fascinated by the magic of film.Even our allied nations sent students, eager to learn about this new frontier of entertainment. The future of the film industry had been secured.âIf there are no theaters, thereâs no audience.âRight now, Aeternum was the only nation with cinemas. But the true money wouldnât come from just our own populationâit would come from exporting movies and cinema technology to our allied nations.And so, we struck a deal. Each allied nation would provide land and funding for the construction of cinemas. Aeternum would bring in the technology, train workers, and provide the films.The profits would be splitâ40% for Aeternum, 60% for the host nation.

âComing Soon: Aeternumâs First Movie â Directed by the President Himself!âThe public reaction was beyond anything I had imagined. People were talking about it in markets, cafes, and even at work.âDid you hear? The President himself is acting in this film!ââI donât even know what a movie is, but if the President made it, I have to see it!ââThey say itâs like a play, but the characters are on a magical screen. How does that even work?âThe excitement was contagious. Even foreign merchants and diplomats in Aeternum were intriguedâthey, too, wanted to witness this mysterious new form of entertainment.Shooting the movie was not easy. Unlike Earth, Aeternum had no experienced film industry professionals. Camera operators had to be trained from scratch.Actors had to learn how to deliver lines naturally instead of exaggerated stage acting. Lighting and set design had to be invented entirely from the ground up.One of my biggest struggles?Teaching the actors to not look directly at the
On screen, ANBC reporters walked the streets, interviewed important figures, and even showed battlefield footage of Aeternumâs military exercises. The people were shocked, their jaws dropping as they saw moving images of places they had never been."Itâs like Iâm standing there with them!" A shopkeeper had exclaimed in an interview, reacting to seeing footage of Angelaâs train network expansion.But news wasnât the only thing that took the world by storm.I had taken it upon myself to recreate classic entertainment from Earth, bringing a whole new level of culture to Aeternum.Dramas and Soap Operas â Noble romance, political intrigue, thrilling battles, and dramatic betrayals captivated viewers. Families gathered around the television, watching scripted stories unfold before their eyes for the first time.Short Films & Movies â Storytelling evolved overnight. Actors and playwrights who once worked in theaters had now found a new home in television. The birth of Aeternumâs film indust
âFor the first time ever, we bring to you, the Dukedom of Angelaâas seen through the lens of Aeternum television!â Quara announced proudly.The footage zoomed in to Angela City, its sprawling medieval-style castles and townships standing in stark contrast to Aeternumâs modern metropolis. The streets of Angela were bustling, the markets filled with traders, and most importantly, the brand-new train station was shown in full gloryâwith an Aeternum-built high-speed train pulling in.Loud cheers erupted from across the nation.âI never thought Iâd be able to see another country without having to travel!â a young boy marveled, watching from his familyâs living room.Back in the Angela Grand Plaza, where a giant public viewing screen had been set up, Angelaâs own citizens were watching themselves on the Aeternum News.A young Angela nobleman paled, tugging at his collar. âIs this how they see us? We look so⊠so old-fashioned compared to them!âHis companion, a wealthy merchant, nodded. âThe
As life in Angela rapidly modernized, one final surprise awaited its citizensâa marvel unlike anything they had ever seen before.Under President Miesâ orders, Minister Rafaela of A.R.D.H.M. (Art, Research, Development, Health, and Magic) had finally completed a project years in the making.Aeternum had officially invented the worldâs first television.At Angelaâs Grand Plaza, a massive gathering of people stood in front of a newly constructed screen.âIs this⊠some kind of moving painting?â an old man asked, adjusting his spectacles.His grandson, a curious boy named Emile, tugged on his sleeve. âGrandpa, look! The picture is⊠changing!âThe crowd gasped as the screen flickered to life, revealing an image of DJ Skelly and Quara Raedrim, two of Aeternumâs most famous radio hosts.âGreetings, citizens of Angela!â DJ Skellyâs booming voice echoed across the plaza. âToday is a historic day! For the first time ever, the people of Aeternum and Angela will witness the future of entertainmen
At Fort Steelward, a border outpost near the west, Angelaâs Captain Cedric Durand stood alongside Aeternumâs Colonel Matthias Kael, watching as their combined forces executed a tactical drill.âYou train your men well,â Captain Cedric admitted, watching as Aeternumâs soldiers swiftly took down training dummies with precise gunfire and coordinated tactics.Colonel Kael smirked. âEfficiency is key. We fight with strategy, discipline, and superior equipment.âAngelaâs soldiers were still adjusting to Aeternumâs modernized warfare, but the results spoke for themselves. Crime rates near the border had dropped by 60% in just three months, and monster activity was at an all-time low.For Angelaâs government, this was the best possible outcome. A safer nation meant a stronger economy, happier citizens, and more stability.In the halls of Angelaâs Royal Palace, the nationâs ministers convened for a special meeting to discuss the growing partnership with Aeternum.âI must admit,â Minister Jean-
âSoâŠâ Baroness Elise folded her arms. âAre you telling us that our businesses are failing because we refuse to acknowledge the common folk as valuable clients?ââPrecisely,â Lionel said. âLook, my friendsâtradition is fine, but wealth does not care about tradition. You must ask yourselves, do you wish to cling to outdated ideals and watch your investments fail? Or will you embrace modernity and open your doors to the true economy?âThe Angela nobles were silent.Marquis Alistair eventually exhaled. âDamn⊠I hate to admit it, but youâre right.âDuke Clarence sighed, rubbing his temples. âIt seems we have much to reconsider.âLionel smirked. âThatâs the first step to success. Now⊠shall we discuss how to properly revamp your business strategies?âBy the time Angelaâs nobles returned home, their entire perspective had changed. Within weeks, their resorts underwent major rebranding, opening their services to the wealthy merchants, military officers, and successful craftsmen that made up A
Duke Clarence and his companions exchanged glances. The idea of a nobility focused on economy and culture rather than ruling and taxation was unthinkable in the Dukedom of Angela.At that moment, Countess Vivian Lancaster, a noblewoman from Aeternumâs east, approached the group with a knowing smile. âAnd you should know, Duke Clarence,â she said smoothly, âthere is far more wealth and prestige in industry than in ruling over struggling farmers.âShe produced a document, sliding it across the table. It was an investment portfolioâAeternum Nobles had turned entire mountain valleys into profitable spa resorts, old castles into boutique hotels, and hunting grounds into elite golf courses.Marquis Alistair leaned forward, his eyes widening at the immense profits outlined in the reports. âBy the heavens⊠youâre making millions in mere months,â he whispered.Viscount Lionel nodded, clearly enjoying their shock. âAnd it is all because we embraced progress, rather than clinging to the past.âBa
âThis railway is not merely a connection between nations,â Queen Angela declared, âbut a symbol of progress. A bridge between past traditions and the bright future we shall build together.âPresident Mies added, âWith this project, Angela will no longer be isolated or vulnerable. It will be a thriving hub of innovation and prosperity.âThe people roared with approval, commoners eager for job opportunities, and nobles eager for increased wealth.Meanwhile, across the border, envoys from Hallerus Kingdom and the Golden Triangle Nation secretly observed the Angela-Aeternum railway collaboration.One Hallerus official slammed his fist onto his desk upon receiving the report. âTheyâre building a rail network that connects Aeternum to the Forbidden Wasteland?! If this continues, Angela will become untouchable!âA Golden Triangle merchant sneered. âTch. Those fools in Angela have completely sold themselves to Aeternum. But we can do nothing. Our king already declared hostilities. We are lock
