“Visma Nation has been so jumpy and eager as of lately….although we controlled the immediate region next to Southern Alemia….the threat still stands…..The Flower should make them eased up a little bit…”.“Visma Nation…in my opinion, is a nation that can’t really be called a nation….it was just an amalgamation of a group of people that are craze with power…and then established themselves as lord…all of them were constantly on each others throat…..and dividing them up were as easy as taking a candy from a kid….given enough time, that nation will fall to crumble, and our Flower….would just hasten that process….”.(Special Agent Marisko)“I agree with you, Marisko…you certainly have a broad view on things…”.I smiled at Marisko conjecture, she really do have a quick uptakes on things that matters, Visma Nation is a target that would fall, with even the slightest of nudge, their monarchy were barely upholding, and with their nobility so strong in power, their king cannot even told his subje
“Enough about the Visma Nation for now….Selie, how is our army doing?….I know that Bina and Kolarova are ready to move out..whenever I would give them the order….I supposed Lucas would too…How is it for Eliza?…”.Lieutenant Colonel Selie took out her tablet PC, and scroll on some message, before she turned to me and answer.“General Eliza side, will have to take about another day before they are ready to mobilize, Sir…”.(Lieutenant Colonel Selie)“.…Is that so?..”.“Yes, although they took over the city and the region peacefully and without any fights….the city still need reconstructions and restructure….and thanks to the peaceful occupation…they also happened to missed the opportunity to eradicate the city corrupted and evil figure..so…the soldiers had to go around all over the place to capture all this problematic figure one by one….hence it was reasonable for their delay…”.(Lieutenant Colonel Selie)Understandable, after all except for the north, all other battle for ‘liberation’ d
“They can take one more day..just to be sure…at this point, we can afford more time…since we only got one more target to destroy…”.At this point of our campaign everyone can afford to take their time to make sure everything is in order and completed before we move on with something else. After all the enemy were already dancing in the palm of my hand, and they will only be waiting for my execution on them, that is their fates, they can’t do nothing but wait for me to come and end that battle of theirs and also their lives.“...By the way, Marisko…do you like movies?..”.“Hmm?…that is a rather peculiar question, sir…..hmmm…personally I like them…it was entertaining…and also quite a strong propaganda method…if we were able to make our own movie, we can put everything that we want in it….after all, the entertainment industry in this era..are so backwards…that if a movie were released to the masses…the people would just become so addicted to it…”.(Special Agent Marisko)Actually, movies
“Able to come to such deductions…you are really capable, Marisko….you know, I haven’t talk to anyone about this….but I think…it was about time we released our own movies…”.“Releasing our own movies?..”.(Special Agent Marisko)“Yes…with our own productions…with our own method and drive….naturally with a sprinkle of our very own ‘creativity’…”.Using an air quotes, I put an emphasis on the word creativity, for Marisko, I know that she would get what I meant by Creativity in a single take.“by putting our own twist and turns…..heh, that would surely makes the world crazy…heck….with the movies…we can even make Aeternum to become a sort of utopia……maybe we can even make a movie where our military be the most righteous army in the entire world….hohoho…. I kinda excited to see such things happening…”.Seeing her snickering and lips formed a rather devious smile, she were looking like a villain right now, even Selie were slowly taking a step back away from here. Marisko felt into her own ima
“Nevertheless…I think it was time that we brought an entertainment storm to this world…and I want you to be the icon that do it….can you do this?..”.“At this point…..I don’t think that there is nothing that I can say to deny this…..Sure, Sir…I’ll do it….”.(Special Agent Marisko)“Great….just a heads up….this new job…will bring you a lot of attentions….fame, and popularity….you will be standing before the public eyes…and perhaps even received an admiration from many of them….simply said…you might even lose your peaceful life for this path…”.“.…I think I can handle it…..you know, that I won’t lose my bearing for stuff like this…all that I do…I do it for our nation and for you, Sir….no matter how hectic things might be….I am confident..that I can turn it all just for the benefits for our nation…”.(Special Agent Marisko)“I am glad that you were accepting this new duty…..so…for your first duty..as Aeternum very own first Entertainment Producer….You will become the President of Aeternum
Meanwhile, in Central Alemia, the Capital City, the tension of the civil war were getting heighten and became much more brutal, The Crown Prince side were eager to enter the city at all cost, after all they had to march inside the city and head straight to the palace to conquer it. As for Queen Romella, her priority were to defend her city walls, and make sure that her son and his army did not makes it through, so that she can continue to stay on power. Naturally with the intensity and the frequency of the skirmish between the 2 are getting more and more often and harsh. Now both sides, can already be said, they have exhausted their manpower, but still neither side wanted to compromise or give up. Why, because now they know that Aeternum are on their heels.“Your Highness Crown Prince, you know that we cannot simply stop here….we need to have some sort of offering for Aeternum..if we want to survive..”.(Baron Louise)“an offering?…AN OFFERING?!!…how dare you muttered such things befo
Inside the crown prince faction command tent, as always the Crown Prince were still deep in his delusion, the adjutant, military leaders, commanders and the nobles in this faction, all of them were secretly blaming this man. Everyone thought that they can humor this man for a little bit and uses him as a tool later on, but no one ever thought that the Aeternum attacks, and everyone in this room has lost their land and territory while all of them stuck here. To make the matters even worse, all of them now had to rely on him, to survive, all of them had nothing anymore, they are all standing here empty, no land, no family and definitely no power, all that they have were their name and that was about it.They need this buffoon of a prince to win, in order to gain something, but right now the situation has become worse, Aeternum had them surrounded and yet, this buffoon think that the Aeternum isn’t a threat, and treat them like the Aeternum would bowed to him when he become a King, which
“Louise….have you received the words from, His Highness President yet?..”.(Count Dracul)“I do….in a few days time….he is coming here…General Eliza and Grand General Bina is coming as well…..and our old friend..Duke Oliver are coming from the west..”.(Baron Louise)The baron secretly whispered as the 2 men walked side by side, heading to their own tent.“Great news….I can’t wait to just see that brat got hanged….I can’t believe he wasted all the people lives as he wants….him becoming a King?….if he does….Alemia will be doom from the first day….His Highness President should have this land….”.(Count Dracul)“That;s right, Count….Aeternum is the only one that can bring order and peace to this land of ours….by the way…Duke Windstorm finally kicked the bucket….”.(Baron Louise)“Suits him well….my wife delivered the news to me….Frozen Peak City has been flipped upside down….I’m glad that I am still loyal to Aeternum…General Eliza let us keep out land and estate…”.(Count Dracul)“Mine as wel
Inside the Presidential Office, I sat at my desk, reviewing a final document with Vice President Elijah and Minister of Culture, Evelyn Rhemis."Are we all in agreement?" I asked, setting the paper down.Elijah smirked, arms crossed. "Absolutely. A national holiday to celebrate our multicultural unity? It’s about time."Evelyn nodded in excitement. "This is more than just a celebration, Mr. President. This solidifies Aeternum’s identity as a nation of the future—a place where people, regardless of origin, can thrive under a common dream."The new holiday, aptly named "Unity Day," would be an annual celebration where all citizens, native-born and immigrant alike, could come together in festivals, concerts, and cultural showcases.It would be a reminder to everyone—past, present, and future—that Aeternum’s greatest strength was not just its technology, but its people.I smiled. "Then let’s make it official."The day of the first Unity Day festival had arrived, and the New City Central S
The refugees of the Battle Star Empire were determined to prove themselves.The Aeternum government had granted them legal residency, but full citizenship required them to live lawfully, work hard, and integrate into society. It wasn’t a difficult requirement—the people wanted to stay, to belong, and they were more than willing to do whatever it took.Crime among the former refugees was almost nonexistent. They respected the law because they had never known justice before.Education was another priority. Schools and learning centers had been set up specifically for immigrants, teaching them not only about Aeternum’s history and culture but also modern skills—reading, writing, mathematics, and even vocational training.Mira had already enrolled in evening classes, determined to further her education.Her dream?To open her own tailoring business one day.Back in the Empire, she had been forced to sew uniforms for soldiers under brutal conditions, her work never appreciated, never compe
This was Aeternum’s first fully televised football match, being broadcast internationally to allied nations like Dukedom of Angela, Kingdom of Zaredon, and Kingdom of Eloesa.Even rival nations, like Hallerus Kingdom and the Golden Triangle Nation, watched the match with a mix of jealousy and curiosity.For them, this was completely new.A sport played in a massive stadium. A crowd of thousands cheering in unison. Leaders sitting among their people, showing unity and camaraderie."Is this… what Aeternum entertainment looks like?""No wonder their people love them…"Aeternum was changing the world, one goal at a time.The match continued, New City United pressing forward, desperately trying to equalize. And then—Thirty minutes in—goal! New City United equalized with a powerful shot from outside the box.Forty-second minute—goal! Another attack from New City, and they took the lead.President Mies stood up and cheered loudly with the crowd."Looks like the President is having a great t
At first, even with professional teams and structured matches, the stadiums weren’t full. People didn’t understand why they should care. But then… he first matches were broadcasted on television. And suddenly, everything changed.For the first time, people saw their own cities competing. New City United vs. Shark Bay FC. Ironridge Titans vs. Silverport Eagles. Blazing Tundra vs. Redwood Strikers.It wasn’t just football anymore—these were their cities, their teams, their pride. And when fans saw their teams winning, they felt the rush of victory. When they saw their teams losing, they felt the bitterness of defeat.The spark had been ignited. Soon enough… Supporters’ clubs started popping up. Fans flooded stadiums on weekends. People debated tactics in bars, cafes, and workplaces. Children started dreaming of becoming professional players.Saturdays and Sundays were now known as Football Days, where everyone tuned in to watch their favorite teams battle for supremacy.The AFL wasn’t j
“Learn the Craft of Visual Storytelling! Enroll in the Aeternum Film Academy Today!”Students from all over Aeternum flocked to sign up. Aspiring actors hoping to be the next big star. 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.“If there are no theaters, there’s no audience.”Right now, Aeternum was the only nation with cinemas. But the true money wouldn’t come from just our own population—it 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 split—40% for Aeternum, 60% for the host nation. This trade cooperation would not only strengthen alliances but also ensur
“Coming Soon: Aeternum’s First Movie – Directed by the President Himself!”The public reaction was beyond anything I had imagined. People were talking about it in markets, cafes, and even at work.“Did you hear? The President himself is acting in this film!”“I don’t even know what a movie is, but if the President made it, I have to see it!”“They say it’s like a play, but the characters are on a magical screen. How does that even work?”The excitement was contagious. Even foreign merchants and diplomats in Aeternum were intrigued—they, 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 Aeternum’s military exercises. The people were shocked, their jaws dropping as they saw moving images of places they had never been."It’s like I’m standing there with them!" A shopkeeper had exclaimed in an interview, reacting to seeing footage of Angela’s train network expansion.But news wasn’t 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 – 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 – Storytelling evolved overnight. Actors and playwrights who once worked in theaters had now found a new home in television. The birth of Aeternum’s film indust
“For the first time ever, we bring to you, the Dukedom of Angela—as seen through the lens of Aeternum television!” Quara announced proudly.The footage zoomed in to Angela City, its sprawling medieval-style castles and townships standing in stark contrast to Aeternum’s 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 glory—with an Aeternum-built high-speed train pulling in.Loud cheers erupted from across the nation.“I never thought I’d be able to see another country without having to travel!” a young boy marveled, watching from his family’s living room.Back in the Angela Grand Plaza, where a giant public viewing screen had been set up, Angela’s own citizens were watching themselves on the Aeternum News.A young Angela nobleman paled, tugging at his collar. “Is this how they see us? We look so… so old-fashioned compared to them!”His companion, a wealthy merchant, nodded. “The
As life in Angela rapidly modernized, one final surprise awaited its citizens—a marvel unlike anything they had ever seen before.Under President Mies’ 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 world’s first television.At Angela’s Grand Plaza, a massive gathering of people stood in front of a newly constructed screen.“Is this… some kind of moving painting?” an old man asked, adjusting his spectacles.His grandson, a curious boy named Emile, tugged on his sleeve. “Grandpa, look! The picture is… changing!”The crowd gasped as the screen flickered to life, revealing an image of DJ Skelly and Quara Raedrim, two of Aeternum’s most famous radio hosts.“Greetings, citizens of Angela!” DJ Skelly’s booming voice echoed across the plaza. “Today is a historic day! For the first time ever, the people of Aeternum and Angela will witness the future of entertainmen
