The Commonwealth of Novaltia is a new nation project dedicated to making life better by combining the best of traditions with the best of innovation.

In particular we are cultivating a Victorian aesthetic and sense of duty, so that we can work to make the best life possible for ourselves, our children, and our grandchildren.

We warmly invite the members of this lovely forum to take a visit to see if our community might be right for you.

I fail to understand how ~~being a wack job~~ a denial of reality will make my,my children's or my grandchildren's lives any better.

No one does anything the old fashioned way anymore...Whatever happened to the good ol' days of finding a nice piece of land that was "uninhabited" sending people in ships to that new, undiscovered land making use of all of its natural resources, and "colonizing"? Eventually, someone would always say, "We were here first...blah, blah, blah." But rarely would these "uninhabitors" be able to put up much of a valid claim. Most had never even been to Europe to do the proper paperwork...

And as for the OP, if it cannot start on good ol' traditional colonization, what good is it? What are you saying you are better than my ancestors?

Does this mean we can shove kids back up chimneys?

Sounds like win to me.

I've been longing for a good bout of cholera, but am afraid I've instead got the consumption.

On the plus side, there will always be the safety net of the workhouse and a nice bowl of gruel.

Aaaaaah yes let us harken back to the good old days of child labour, the 55 hour week and housing shortages.
Let's bring back subsistence level wages, no health benefits, and poor sanitary conditions.
Let us also bring back the grand old days of destitution, work houses, and gangs of pick pockets and street urchins roaming the streets.
Aaaaaah yes the grand old days..........
