Infrequent questions on Divpolis

This page is under construction.

Development

From what Divpolis is influenced?

Muqliong Gang, Alpha City, Phesoca (not listed in order).

Phesoca? Is there a subway system?

Divpolis is far less populated than Phesoca. Still, in convenience of illustrations and stories, a tentative intercity express will include multiple points.

Is there a map?

We do not know the exact location or surroundings of any of the places. Rather than prescribing all the geographic relations, I prefer to infer from canonical works when they are adequate. The moment you write ‘across Dart Street John saw an old-looking pub’, it becomes one of the competing clues.

Divpolis is a cross-section of thoughts, not a Skylines game save.

Characters

Are the characters based on real people?

Most of the time, no.

Outline

Is Divpolis too unpopulated to uphold a society with current technology?

I have no idea whether scale is truly a party-pooper for libertarian havens (though Divpolis is not one). One question on Stack Exchange exemplified semiconductor and pharmaceutical industry.

One challenge even more salient than staffing big tech is that the tiny society will drive the stories tedious and repetitive as in Friends. (Possibly as a remedy the volatility of Divpolis will be exaggerated.)

What do you mean by ‘particle assonance’?

Euphemism for gender. Go ahead.

Seriously, it is an inserted parameter for characters to cope with languages that require a distinction. It will affect minimally on illustrations, and never on other aspects. (It can be actually contrary to personality of the relevant character even in religious texts.)

Anything else related to gender

Here I try to answer possible questions including: Are your stories confined to the style/manner of a certain gender? Are you discouraging profession or sentiments through …? Is it a work of BL/yaoi genre? (I am heard of this question.)

The answer: It is my negligence if I have introduced anything unsounded.

Geekiness

Why the name?

The polis of diva. Originally referring to ‘Sinicized German’, but largely abolished.

How did the idea emerge?

Divpolis was designed for Shidinn Timeline, purely as a ultra-multilingual community at first. Before Shidinn Timeline I came up with something including a fictional future called I&E, which is responsible for organizations in Divpolis, particularly Contrail.
