The Kingdom of Paranor Island is a small country off the west coast of Wales and east coast of Ireland, in the Irish Sea. It is one of the world’s oldest and most powerful monarchies. The current king of Paranor Island is His Majesty King Alfred IV of the House of Leah. Paranor’s powerful enjoyed great prosperity through the Colonial Age and the country still has territories in the Atlantic and the Caribbean. During World War II the Kingdom was invaded by the German war machine and suffered extensive damage from Luftwaffe air raids. Because of this there are many more modern buildings in the country’s oldest cities. The capital city of Paranor is Leah, named for the Royal Family. The city lies beneath a dormant, believed extinct volcano called Mt. Argo, which when last erupted two thousand years ago killed six hundred people.

More will follow soon, thanks for reading,

Paranor Island Under Construction · by CraigKingOfIreland on Mon Jul 28, 2008 10:23 pm

CAUTION: City Under Construction

For the first update I'll show some pics around Paranor that are currently under construction (that being most of it)

-------------------------------------------------

Firstly, this is a plan (and somewhat reality) of the islands main region at the very south. Red is street level Metro (GLR) and blue is underground Metro. Black is InterCity rail and brown in suburban commuter rail. Finally light blue is motorway.

Killeshan is my attempt at a proper skyscraper city without going to the ridiculous extremes I went to in Normandy.

Leah, my nation's capital isn't quite the way I want it yet even though it is the oldest and most worked on city in my region. For that reason I'm not going to show much of it and none of the really good areas.

Melcena is my first real small town so be nice.

And finally, Illian, my latest city. I have good expectations for this city and hope they're not misplaced

Time to see what important things are in the news today in Paranor Island.

Leah · by CraigKingOfIreland on Mon Jul 28, 2008 10:25 pm

Although the King has complete discretionary power in all matters, Paranor Island does have a parliament. It was created by the king to facilitate the political needs of running a country. While technically wielding no power, Parliament runs the country on behalf of the King, taking care of day to day matters. The system of government is modeled on Paranor’s neighbour, the Republic of Ireland, with a proportional representation system. Parliament is made up of two hundread members, five from each constituency and elections are held every five years. After elections are held, Parlaiment appoints an An Chéad Aire (Prime Minister) who in turn appoints government ministers. Leah is the capital of the Kingdom and all government departments are are located here. Leah is also a economic, cultural, and educational centre and the city has a very long history.

Wow, amazing CJ! Can't believe I haven't seen it before! I love how you show some under construction shots, most people would be too afraid to do that but I like seeing how the cities began and then going back and comparing that with the fully built city Smile

.

I especially like the area housing all the embassies and the picture of the cathedral is fantastic too.

Sorry to hear about the death of your king, hmm maybe this might lead to the nation becoming a republic? Viva la revolution Razz

.

Glad I get to be the first CJ available on SimSports, this is a great addition to the site Slacker, it should make it more active
