But you've been at this hostel-cafeteria for only three nights. Where were you before? You had to be somewhere.
By the way, where is home? The address is coming up blank and this place sure isn't it...
Incidentally, during the waning days of the Antecentennial Revolution, a number of Revacholian communards constructed elaborate hideouts in abandoned root cellars, hollowed-out tree trunks, and even residential sewage tanks. This latter phenomenon gave rise to the early anti-communist slogan, 'The Future's Bright When You Flush Out the White!'
Today, Nilsen's reputation has waned in most parts of the developed world, with the exception of the People's Republic of Samara (SRV), where he is recognized as a founding father. His political philosophy is a variant of Mazovianism called Nilsenist-Mazovianism.
You've spent a not inconsiderable amount of time arranging the works in your mental library by theme and period. All the ideas and references you'll need are ready-at-hand.
Oh, right. During the disastrous retreat from Graad to Samara, Nilsen personally ordered up to 12,000 prisoners of war impaled on sharpened spruce trees in the Samaran backcountry. Thereafter his opponents began referring to him as the 'Apocalyptic Shrike'.
The SRV refers to the People's Republic of Samara. Established as a socialist utopia by survivors of the Revolution, it has since degenerated into a bureaucratic workers' state under the decades-long rule of President Sapormat 'Sport' Knezhinisky.
It's hard to overstate how unimpressed he is that you've never heard of this world-historical individual.
The Counter-Truancy Task Force (or 'skip squad') is the division of the RCM that drives around in wagons looking for delinquent minors. It's generally considered a punitive assignment for under-performing officers.
What became of them, though? There seems to be a blank paragraph in the history books...
One of Kras Mazov's closest associates, Ignus Nilsen was a leading political and military figure in the Antecentennial Revolution.
Nota bene: 'Econoclard' is an extra-pejorative form of the already pejorative name 'Mazovian Economists', a moderate school of Mazovianism, which advocates a gradual transition to communism through carefully managed economic modernisation rather than violent social revolution.
Best of all, your arguments are liberally seasoned with references to particular historical events and personages.
It's too bad they wound up equally dead on some nameless island in Ozonne...
Sapormat 'Sport' Knezhinisky is well into his third decade as president of the SRV. Outside Samara he's known for three things: Brutal repression of internal dissent, monumental corruption, and a near-pathological obsession with physical fitness.
If you don't follow it, you only ever hear about the ludicrous sponsorships and obscene death toll...
Right. Like all Samaran men above the age of 40, President Knezhinisky wears a truly spectacular walrus moustache.
