From the public Babylonian Thread
*
Theme- Land of Enlightenment
Goal- to build a civilization based on science, faith, and progressive relations with our neighbours, and to see it through to the future.
Philosophy- Technology and culture on the one hand - homeland defence on the other. Don't mess with us as we will make you pay, and we are much more valuable as an ally.
Team Babylon will be a progressive and democratic civilization. We pride ourself on integrity. And we believe in a 'balanced' approach to the game. However, we will field a strong military to ensure our way of life is not threatened. We look forward to co-operating with you in the game.
quote:
In a world just discovering itself, the Babylonians take the Path of learning and culture to an age of enlightenment. After all, we are called 'civilizations' for a reason. For those who threaten this Path, we have bowmen. Lots and lots of them.

Are we drifting away from the intent of our Founding Fathers: science, faith, integrity, progressive relations? I know that I have drifted from the ways of Babylon - the whole lack of integrity thing that I have since repented of.
Where are we going as a civilization? What are our plans for science, and wonders? Those sweet talking barbarians of the Blood Oath Hoard have talked us into a war with a nation that has offered us nothing but science. Desolation Row never threatened our path to elightenment. Did they? I say that we must now honor the TNA, but to what end?
"Well that's all fine and good Skrobism. But what are your ideas?"

The Way Of Inanna
1 Current Issues -
1.1 TNA and the DR War:
We need to honor the TNA. We agreed to wage war against the Desolators. That we must do. But these are a people of science. The good people of Desolation Row could benefit from us. We must 'rescue' as much DR land as possible from the hands of the BOH. Once Babylonian, the right minded people of DR will thank us for rescuing them.
1.2 TNA and Euphorica:
When is the last time we talked to them? Do we have the ability to contact them? Do we have an ambassador? I think it would be good to hear their views on TNA and DR from them and not through BOH.
1.3 TNA and Monarchy:
As soon as our king is declared we should trade this science with TNA.
2 Wonders -
The wonder race is on. BOH is bragging about the Statue of Zues. A Great Wall! Hanging Gardens! Something in honor of Inanna would be nice.
3 Science -
We should be the science leaders. We are first to Monarchy. When our king is declared we should tell the world! All of our relationships should be built around science. We delayed our alliance with BOH over land. We are better than that.
4 Builds -
These should be considered in this order:
4.1 Does this build increase science or culture?
Our builds should increase science and culture. This is our way.
4.2 Does this build make us safer?
Our science and culture mean nothing is we go the way of the sands. We need a strong defense.
4.3 Does this build allow us to 'rescue' the world's people from their heathen ways?
Wars will come. War should never be a fruitless game. If a nation's leaders threaten our people it probably means that they have run out of people in their own nation to torment. These people need to be rescued and brought into our way.
5 Foreign Policy -
With all future relationships we need to ask? How does the relationship benefit our science and culture? If the foreign power's leadership does not see our way to enlightenment, will that nation's people benefit from being 'rescued' from their oppressors hands?
6.1 I will try to keep my future comments and suggestions regarding the glorious Babylonian Kingdom in line with the comments above.
6.2 I reserve the right, as is the way of our goddess Inanna, to be fickle and change my mind.
Who is with me?

If we get invloved in a war with DR, we should liberate some land from the BOH who want nothing to do with the people of DR.
Do we want to return to The Way of Inanna? Of course. There must be a better way than constant warring of nations. We can enlighten the world.

I think we should return to The Way once TNA dissolves. (See first post above)
TNA will fall apart very soon.
We were in for a penny. We paid our pound. Soon we will need to leave.
When Eu and BOH break, we need to be careful, and remember that the Desolators might still be angry with us.

So, would Inanna the goddess of Love and War. Maybe. Depending on the wind.
Yes the BOH does seem to have set themselves up a a barely organized bunch of barbarians. "WE HORDE" and all that stuff.
