King Churchille sat on his throne while his advisors rained down the good news on him.
The East French Quarter was doing very good, this is supposed to be the greatest section of the french quarter and its rewards will be tremendous. The rest of the french quarter is now considered historic, and the tourists just keep on flowing in.
Although the mexican border is not the kings top priority, he is joyful to see that the beaners had failed retaking their pathetic land.
But the soup eaters, oh the pathetic soup eaters. The king laughed to himself. Out of nowhere, the pale northerners declared war on peaceful Louisiana. For no Reason! And even with their suprise attack, they got pushed back. It was obvious now that Louisiana was the dominant power in North america, and the dominent power is surrounded by pathetic enemies.
Oh yes days were good in Louisiana.

Sciences: Pure awesome sneers at your sciences!

STORY TIME!
Because the awesome never dies
After many generations of oppression--by Egyptians, Gosh-darned c*nts of Egyptians for Heracles' sake!--the Spartans, along with their slaves boy-lover compatriots, the other Greeks, have finally thrown off the yokes of the Egyptians! Egyptians--oh how shameful!
It began with the plague, really. The death of so many locals inspired the would-be King Leonidas XXX, who claimed to be descended from Jesus, Mohammad, Hercules, and Thor, to spark a rebellion in Egypt-controlled Greece. This came with a wave of realization all across the Aegean that Egyptians shouldn't be ruling Greece! Nor should a pansy republic of all Greeks for that matter!
Their ruler had to be awesome, made of PURE AWESOME, so they did the logical and Grek thing to do: VOTE. After all, Greece was the cradle of Democracy, right? So, while still sirring up trouble among the disease-ridden Egyptian armies with equally disease-ridden, but infinitely more Greek (despite their dark skin and Egyptian features after all these years of their women shameless whoring themselves to the Egyptians--by Odin's missing eye, Egyptians!--and their men taking to Egyptian boys like rabbits to a carrot farm--only the carrots like buttsecks) rebel soldiers, they organized an election. An AWESOME election.
Now, guess who won? KING LEONIDAS XXX OF COURSE. King Leonidas XXX was made of pure awesome. They say that when he was born, he murdered the midwife who made the mistake of spanking him right then and there, with his bare, baby fists at first but with sharp rocks later on! His father was proud of him, but both his parents died in spear-related accidents after trying to force him to gulp down nasty-tasting vegetables.
And then, when he was a boy, he poured molten steel all over his chest for a bet. Guess what? HE WON, and until his adulthood he had a permanent steel breastplate to show off to everyone who thought they were awesome--of course, everyone did, because everyone who didn't died in spear-related accidents!
Oh yes that should be enough proof that King Leonidas XXX was pure awesome. So, when he was elected, he called his rebel government the Awesome Monarchy, ruled by His Awesomeness, to be inherited by any man who can best him in one-on-one combat AND has a disfigured body part made of molten metal. Nobody has risen to the challenge as of yet, but then, as they say: "the plot thickens."
Or should that be "The plot becomes MORE AWESOME"? It totally should!

The Armies of SPARTA
Where the awesome does die, albeit spectacularly
Okay, so you must be wondering how the Spartans and their Greek auxiliaries managed to fight off the Egyptians. Heck, I'm wondering, too! But let me posit an intelligent and elucidating guess as to to how the Spartan Associates of Radical and Total Awesomeness, or Associates, or Spartans as the plebes like to call them, for shorts, armed themselves and fought.
Arming an army begins in the forges. Of course, unlike normal forges, Associate/Spartan/whatever forges were made of pure awesome. To prove that, archaeological evidence shows that on every single piece of equipment every Spartan forge made were the words:
Go tell the Spartans, stranger passing by,
That this tool of war belies:
50% Steel, 50% Manliness, and 50% Win,
Making 150% Awesome
The Spartans were no pansy poets, that's for sure! There is also speculation that by Spartan these guys meant the Spartans of Sparta, not that of SPARTA, because the Spartans were the blood-brethren of King Leonidas XXX, undoubtedly the most awesome man alive back then, making the Spartans shareholders of that awesome, thus giving them the Awesome Right to Rule All Others, and any blacksmith who didn't make Spartan equipment overflowing with Awesome would have been sentenced to death--death by spear-related accidents, no less!
Now that we have removed all doubt that any and all equipment from SPARTA were made of pure Awesome--it says so right there on the label, after all!--let us look at what the Spartans were actually making! More archaeological evidence from armories show that the Spartans had steel swords, steel spears, steel bows and arrows--but not armor!
Looking further, we actually find the armor--in the GRAVES of Spartan soldiers! What did this mean? Did the Spartans bury the dead with armor? Of course not! The following passage from the religious texts of then-contemporary Sparta states:
Ask not whether you can bring your armor to the grave,
But whether your chest can survive being burned alive with molten steel!
Now, this is inconclusive, but it has led many experts on the history of SPARTA, including myself, to believe that the Spartans didn't really wear armor--rather, they pour molten steel on their chests, making them living testaments to the awesomeness of man! Also, weaklings probably died in the process, but the strong and the awesome ultimately survived to fight SPARTA's enemies.
Now, why would they do that? To show their enemies how much pure awesome they had! Some bodies, indeed, had "armor" extending to the legs and thighs, and some even had "armor" on their skulls! Several contemporary accounts from Egyptians confirm everything we thought about Spartans: they were pure awesome. Nilahorothopidatep writes:
The Spartans fought with a ferocity and nakedness never seen before in the middle of battle. They carried with them great, round shields and rode horses that shone under the sun. Their weapons were varied, but their resolve unified. Add the fact that most of their exposed flesh--the only things you really can't put molten metal on--were covered with pus-filled boils and oh Ish--er, damn this indelible clay tablet!--Isis, it was truly a terrible sight to behold!
This piece of Egyptian text gives us much insight on Spartan warfare, actually! Apparently they also extended their metal-pouring ways onto their horses, which "shone under the sun"; they also fought naked, while disease-ridden: oh their resolve to break the shackles of Egyptian rule were strong indeed! Of course, one other expert has proposed other reasons why the Spartans fought naked while covered in plague-boils: "in addition to looking awesome in a rather disgusting way, the Spartans used their horrific features as psychological weapons of war. Not content with showing off the fact that they were MAN enough to survive being poured on with molten steel, the Spartans also showed off their dicks and faces--their horrid, disease-ridden dicks and faces, which probably made their more cultured Egyptian enemies to vomit to death in sight."
Ah, I wish we could talk more the disease-ridden, steel-skinned Spartans today, but that I think we're out of time! Join us again next time, when we tackle The Egyptians and The Secrets of Their Shorts-Making Technology!

Again, give Rome back to the Romans, and we will give back the territory we took from you.

Chapter 4 Finishing Touches
Koeumo was walking through the gardens of the still uncompleted shrine. The gardens themselves are more or less done, only a few workers were left planting plants or doing some other finishing touches. Currently only the workers on this wonder, Shamans and the Grand King was allow to see the Wonder as it was being build. Koeumo was an Elder Shaman.
The Shrine itself was a small round structure with only one wall going round about a quarter of the building. The roof was held up by a number pillars along the outside of the building, currently all the entrances was cover by cloth to stop people looking in until it's ready. After the workers had finish the outside of the building the Shamans when said they will finish the shrine themselves and no one was allowed to look inside until it was finished as it could anger the Spirits and that included the Grand King.
As Koeumo walked to the Shrine itself, he pushs past the cloth and went inside the Shrine. The decoration inside the Shrine was simple, but Koeumo looked at the large object currently in the center of the Shrine and then at the 3 other Shaman in the room. The large object was the offering table which people will put their offering on when the wonder was completed, but currently the Spirits are not happy with it's position. Koeumo signed and said Brothers, we need to move it again!
Where to this time Koeumo? said the first Shaman.
Not far, just a little toward the back wall. said Koeumo.
Why can't the Spirits simply just choose one position and stick with it this thing is heavy! said the second Shaman as he moved over to the table preparing to help move it.
Because... said the third Shaman all the Spirits must be happy with it not just a few! Now LIFT!
This is going to be a long day thought Koeumo as lift up the table to move it to position.
