The official thread for Jedinica discussions.

This thread, the base desciptions among other things, need serious updating. I hope to do so after my exams (not on points as I have a year system - just for testing - but still) are mostly over.

Current citizens of Jedinica Vrijstaat:

Concordia

Everyone is still welcome! The more immigrants, the more joy! Change your location at the Citizens Register and post your name here.

A big thanks to Lemmy to provide a shelter for these pictures.
Suggestions for other pictures to represent the bases are always welcome!
Some of the information below needs updating, but due to lack of time it won't be for tomorrow I'm afraid.
Last update: MY 2256

Special base characteristics

Concordia is in most economic measurement units head and shoulders above the three other bases in Jedinica Vrijstaat. It even has the largest population of all bases within United Nations territory. As a consequence the regional government center is stationed here. It isn't all sunshine in Concordia though. The unprecedented growth in population - both due to lower mortality rates and Hivean refugees - and industrial production in the last decade of the previous century has created a large class of drones, which don't have a well-paid job and live in cramped arcologies. Plans are underway though to fabricate several huge habitation complexes, which would have room for no less than 70000 citizens.

Geography

At the time of its foundation, Concordia promised to become a small cute harbor town, located at the northern end of a long and shallow fjord. Time proved otherwise however. A few years after the foundation of the base, it became clear Concordia was located near a very active volcanic area. Heavy earthquakes shook the small town of Concordia, destroying a big part of its infrastructure. Happily by now this infrastructurial damage has been repaired and the vulcanic activity has calmed down. But as a result of this turbulent past, Concordia has become a mountain city, located between several high peaks, more precisely the old vulcano in the SW: Mount Centauri with its 2572 metres, and the second highest mountain within Peacekeeping territory, in the NE, the Ben Nevis with its 2810 metres, named after the famous mountain in Old Earth Scotland. Concordia itself is locate in a valley, 1518 metres low, between these two peaks. This still makes it the highest base of them all, also the only one on rocky terrain, as can be noted in the cityview picture above. Due to this height, some sort of snowfall occurs every year during the winter period, so Concordia is known for its skiing tourism.

The vulcanic eruptions have also created other advantages for Concordia. Foremost it has brought to the surface many valuable minerals. The other advantage is the rich soil vulcanic ground is. Together with the heavy rainfall (due to the high mountains stopping the clouds) and the high temperature microclimate (sunshine falls vertically on the slopes) the western hills are the most productive of all planet. The eastern side is colder and drier, but still good enough for forest, as was proved by the forestation project some decades ago.

Special base characteristics

The biggest industry in Pandemonium is the holo industry. Many many years ago it started as a marxist amateur group of theatre players performing a show every year to their fellow citizens, to forget the rain outside. Their goal was to bring culture to the common man, also those drones who never visit a theatre in their lives. They had much succes and eventually were asked to perform in other bases as well. Naturally it was impossible to play live for all the drones of the Peacekeeping faction, so they decided to start a non-profit company to distribute recordings of their plays. Later on they stepped over to film production and directed movies dealing with mainly social issues. The big breakthrough however came with the invention of 3DHoloVision Technology. Everyone knows their first factionwide succes "Deirdre's lover", directed by Pandemoniak. Many succeses have followed, and now they are thinking to transport their activities to the oppressed drones in Morgan's corporate dictatorship.

Geography

Pandemonium was founded in the middle of a large track of rainy, even swampy, land. The raininess is explained, just as with Concordia, due to the presence of the Pholus Ridge mountain chain in the east. This makes the region excellent for nutrient production, provided some measures to fertilize the ground are undertaken. Unfortunately the mineral and especially fossil material presence is much lower. The first reason, so our geographers say, was that this region was covered by xenofungus some thousand years ago, absorbing all fossil materials and possible fuels. The second reason is the aforementioned heavy rainfall. It washes away the upper ground layer, leaving a barren unproductive layer in top. Forestation projects have been set up in an attempt to give the area some industrial potential, but with minor succes. Therefore the current governor of Jedinica has decided to specialize on the one thing Pandemonium has: water! As soon as the terraformation projects in the north have been finished, large industrialized farms will be constructed in the vicinity of Pandemoniak, growing genetically engineered crops needing lots of water (and thus lowering the swampiness of the region) but little minerals.

Special base characteristics

Sheathed Sword has the honour to be the Peacekeeper base with the lowest GDP and the lowest annual energy production. This is of course due to the special nature of this base, a collectivist community of warriors. Its foundation and name was planned long ahead in honour of the politician which dominated the entire second half of the twenty-second century: High Commissioner DeathByTheSword. A big interest of him has always been Eastern, more specifically Chinese, philosophy and martial arts. Thus Sheathed Sword was planned as thé centre for those subjects. First there is the university, which specializes in studies of authors such as Sun Tzu and his still present influences on military tactics and strategy. Second there is the martial arts academy, where pupils learn various unarmed combat sports. For those looking for a military career, this is the place to be! Even Yang is envious of this eastern philosophical base and rumours are going he wants to send his own troops to this base as well...
Due to the special character of this base, few people are employed in the classic agricultural and industrial sectors. Of course the nutritional and productive tasks still have to fulfilled. To do so, Sheathed Sword is in the process of constructing a whole army of supply crawlers, specialized in harvesting food or mining minerals.

Geography

Sheathed Sword is located in a very average area. Located in a bay. Not too rainy, not too arid. Flat areas, and more elevated rocky ones. There are only two special characteristics. One is the noticable lack of fungus. Not even 5% of the Sheathed Sword territory is covered by the alien lifeform. Scientists are in the dark why this is so. They can only observe the Xenofungus species tends to exist in abundance in some regions, almost creating whole networks, and be completely absent in others. The other characteristic is the rich mineral mine in the SE. This makes sure the eastern warriors will never lack resources. It might also allow the creation of a military apparatus in the future, once the base is developed enough.

Special base characteristics

While Sheathed Sword focuses on the military sciences, Terminal Dogma focuses on the social and human sciences & ideologies, such as politology, sociology, communication sciences, psychology, pedagogy, the whole lot... The political faculty of Terminal Dogma University is known for its numerous heavy debates and even street fights, especially over the issue Free Market versus Planned or Green, a debate which continues up until this day. As many politicians want their sons and daughters to follow in their footsteps, they send their children to this base too. As a consequence this base has a whole bunch of 14-year olds running around loose in the base. No wonder the pedagogy faculty is sited here. The same reason for the psychology faculty. This base has the highest amount of psychological diseases. Whether this is caused by the high mind worm activity, the group of megalomaniacal commies and fascists, or the immature children yelling the whole time is still unsure...

Besides being the most prestigous universitarian base of the entire Peacekeeping faction, Terminal Dogma has also grown into a free trade haven due to the MY 2202 Archaic Economic Reforms of our well-known Social Engineering director. This was done to stop the brain drain of many talented and educated UN citizens to the Morgan faction, as there corporations are bound by less rules and regulations, and there are less laws on ethical matters. Now citizens with corporate ambitions can try their luck in this special free trade zone. Consequence of course was a surge of talents all over our faction to this base, as is proved by the population figures, indicating a growth of no less than 35% in four years. The second consequence was a steep increase of the base's GP. It even surpasses its closest competitors Concordia, New Apolyton and ThisBaseIsBelongToUs in economic power. A problem though is that Terminal Dogma is located at the very edge of our faction, far away from the watchful eye of New Apolyton and Concordia. This makes a large part of the esteemed GDP actually consists out of black market deals. There are also rumours of illegal experminents in genetics and neural grafting, resulting in creatures who don't look very human anymore. Pictures of these experiments are currently circulating in the Virtual World network nodes of all bases. The last report came from the Rec Commons at New Apolyton. If anyone can provide more information about these expermiments, please contact the local authorities. Discretion is guaranteed.

Geography

When you have a 360 degrees cityview, you can notice two things. The whole north, west and south is surrounded by metres thick packs of impenetrable fungus, walls of red to the horizon. Recently there have been attempts to dig roads through the fungus, which lessen the isolation of Terminal Dogma. Still there is a lot of danger for mind worms, as was proved in the big mind worm attacks of the first decade of the twenty-third century.
In the east you can see untouched flat fields until the horizon. Discussion what to do with them is still ongoing. Forest them or farm and condense them? Jedinica citizens are always free to post their opinion about this issue, or any other concerning Jedinica, in this thread.

Great work, Maniac!

Now you convinced me of moving to Pandemonium!
I love the athmosphere of real art around this beautiful place!

I think Terminal Dogma could be a blockbuster project on how to transform xenofungus wasteland into deep-green farmland with losts of nutrient production. For all the polititian´s kids there want to have a rich filled buffet like they´re used to....

Real good, maniac! That´s what it should be like. One can really identify oneself with your province!!!

That's better.

Now.....Maniac, do you think you could perhaps convince the Comissioner to set up Terminal Dogma as a special "Capitalist Zone", so that the benifits of the Free Market proposal can be demonstrated before the next session of the Directors Council?

I noticed in your citizen register you have a degree in nanorobotic engineering. Perhaps you could become Pandemonium's prime nanotic engineer, researching how to best automize our industries (design better supply crawlers etcetera)?

Sure. Just like Sheathed Sword is growing into a martial-educational collectivist community with full government control over terraformation and industrialization plans, so am I willing to declare Terminal Dogma a free trade zone, with fewer tax restrictions and no ethical laws against weird experiments as depicted in the Rec Commons... Problem is how to represent that in-game. Unless Terminal Dogma becomes a seperate faction, it remains under the current PK planned economy.

Edit: And momentarily Terminal Dogma's city council emphasizes more on the military side, not the economic.

Thanks to be beautiful clean skys, wonderful environment and abundance of fungus (that really helps my *cough* Xenoroses *cough* grow ) I have decided to move to Pandemonium.

How to represent it in game? Name a few landmarks in the area surrounding the Terminal Dogma base radius declaring it a Free Trade zone.

Thanks a lot! I will start immediatly with the new research program!

Is it possible to insert several smaller pictures next to each other instead of having one big pic? In that case, I have some jpg images for this thread
(Of course they show real places on old earth...)

I have no idea if it is possible to post seperate pictures besides each other here. But I assume it should be possible to paste several pictures into one in some graphic program.

How do you want to use those pictures? As the big picture representing entire Pandemonium, or some smaller picture to be posted between the text? Or perhaps to create some advertizing campaign to draw more immigrants to Pandemonium.

Any idea what could be added to the base information btw? One could expand on the martial arts and collectivism of Sheathed Sword, or the free trade zone and (half illegal) experiments in Terminal Dogma about neural grafting, cybernetics, genetic engineering on humans etcetera. These pictures of Apocalypse could be handy to represent that.

Now that I found new Terminal Dogma images for you, you should update it.
Thank you for searching these pictures, but for the main Terminal Dogma picture I think I'll keep the current one for now, as it is the biggest. I'll probably use them in some ads promoting TD though.

Advertising campaign? Sounds good! But I meant some illustration to the cities/bases like the big ones you have now. The one for Concordia is pretty good, but the others...
I will go on searching the web for pictures. Perhaps, in near future, we will have to build up our own immigration-control-center for Jedinica....

You make that sound like a threat.
But I guess not right now. Besides referring to Evangelion, the picture also needs to fit in the SMAC universe. I don't see how several of those you posted could fit into it. I don't even get what is on some of them. Sorry...

What picture would you suggest for TD then as "correction" ? Remember it can only be one.

Returning Home
I have just came back from my long trip in the Gaian faction, and I am glad to announce my moving to Pandemonium. The CCCP recently obtained the authorisation of the government o move to a large building in Pandemonium, and the large reserves of New Caledonian and Talisker brought back from Deirdre's Garden of Xeno-Malt, Gaian Faction will be used to provide the largest holotheater to the citizens of the whole world.

Heres a pic of the CCCP building :

2nd Largest. Terminal Dogma's Anime Screening Theater is going to be much larger. =P

Talisker!

Deirdre obviously has good taste

Somehow I'm very glad I choose to move here
