I'm glad to hear more from you guys, and it's interesting to hear that you have so many virtual citizens, in addition to those on your territory.  I agree that it's also a little reassuring to be getting away from the mystique.

I had a few other questions, if that's okay.

What are some of your ideas for joint projects?

You're a small community that lives on your declared territory -- where is that territory?

Hastyr Aldebaran is an assumed name and the other name on the treaty has initials.  Your website doesn't say anything about anyone else.  It's almost entirely about your form of government, but who is the "Mandator," who is in your four houses of legislature, who is on your Supreme Court, who is in the "Yellow Reserve," etc?

You have 68 virtual citizens; how do they interact, if not via Discord?

A lot of your culture seems to be focused around the Chambers book The King in Yellow, as well as (it sounds like) the poem that inspired parts of it.  Can you explain a little more about that?

I must say, your last few posts, in which you talk like a real human being rather than a character from a metafictional play by Robert Chambers, have made me more kindly disposed to you :D
Thank you, that's reassuring to hear

I should go into more detail. The thing about Talossa is that we're proud that we're an actual community of real people who "operate like a small nation state", rather than an RPG. I've been worried that Carcosa is more an RPG than anything else and therefore relations would not benefit either side. Your participation here is helping with that.

I've read the book about the Yellow King so when I heard there was a micronation called Carcossa I was even more intrigued. Is your nation and government based upon the book "The King in Yellow" written in 1895 by Robert Chambers? If so, what was the impetus to use that as your model?
