The Legend of the Lord of Rebirth
introduction
The shigwa hung high in the sky, spreading its warmth through the streets as before.
The huge statue of Sigwan, the god of light, and the god of war shone in the sunlight, and the magnificent temple of Sigwa became more and more splendid.
It is the city of Morente, the capital of the Forde Merchant League, the largest commercial city on the continent of Guelintea, and the largest seaport city.
It has the largest number of temples in the Gallinthia continent, dedicated to many gods, and is also known as the City of Temples.
It has the largest number of colleges in the Gallinthia continent, and seven of the top ten colleges are located here, so it has the reputation of the city of colleges.
It is the metropolis with the largest number of inhabitants in the city of Gelinthia continent, with a permanent population of nearly 800,000.
Business is thriving here, and people and cars come and go. There are millions of gold coins of all kinds circulating in the market every day. Countless mercenaries, swordsmen, adventurers, craftsmen, traders, and civilian slaves rushed here with their own goals in mind, and then left the ......
In the singing of the poets, this is the land of the gods and the land of abundance......
The White Milky Way, the second largest water system in the Gulli's Continent, quietly nourishes the Plains of Mana, and finally enters the sea to the west of the city of Moriente, where the tranquil White Milky Way brings a thriving bay of gold and a powerful naval fleet.
The vast and fertile plain of Falis Hill, sprinkled with sunshine and flowing with honey, supports the continuous expansion and expansion of the city of Moriente year after year.
One hundred and sixty-seven years ago, the Grand Duke of the former Duchy of Falichu abruptly announced the reformation, abolishing the hereditary feudal lordship system and replacing it with a citizen representative council. Serfdom was abolished, and nearly 400,000 serfs were freed. This move shocked the countries of the mainland.
Archduke Fort Morent also announced that the country would be based on commerce, and united with the six largest chambers of commerce in the Gelinthia continent to establish the Fort Business Alliance, relying on the Falcan Hill Plain to carry out commercial activities with various countries. This is the famous Moriente restructuring in history.
The nascent Fort Business Alliance is known for its freedom and openness on the continent of Gelintya, attracting countless people who are eager to pursue wealth freely, as well as the greedy eyes of powerful neighbors.
Located in the north of the Falcan Plain, the Krisson Empire, the head of the three major empires of Gaylintya, declared that the reform of Archduke Ford Morient was illegal, and brazenly invaded the Falcan Plain, opening the curtain of more than a hundred years of bloody warfare.
The nascent Fort Business Alliance did not give in, and under the banner of fighting for freedom, countless people who did not want to be slaves went to war. For more than a hundred years, blood has stained the plains of Mana Hill.
In the Plains of Falis Hill, on the banks of the White Milky Way, under the city of Morente, two emperors of the Cresson Empire, more than a dozen dukes and countless elite soldiers and strong generals fell. The blue banner of the Fort Business Alliance still flies high above the city of Morente.
In the long years of conquest, the Forde Business Alliance became stronger and stronger, and in the last major battle of more than 100,000 people, it set up a strange plot to let the only sword master of the Clisson Empire fall on the battlefield, which not only won himself nearly twenty years of recuperation, but also put the Clison Empire on the road to decline.
With the last old emperor of the Krisson Empire tossing and turning, the three princes began to compete for the throne, and the Fort Business Alliance finally got rid of the threat from the north and developed rapidly. Twenty years of peace have made the Fort Business Alliance the number one force in the north of Galintya, and the commercial tentacles are all over the continent.
This is the city of Moriente, the indomitable city-state, the alliance of the free. Originally known as Fort Wanghai, the city was later renamed the city of Moriente in honor of Archduke Fort Moriente, who died in the war against the invasion of the Cresson Empire. Originally, there were only twelve blocks in the city, but after twenty years of peace, the city of Moriente expanded extremely rapidly, and in order to meet the needs of commercial development, the Forde Business Alliance spent a huge amount of money to add thirty-six blocks outside the city walls and rebuild a new wall. Since then, the city of Moriente has been divided into inner and outer cities.
But the Morontes don't call it that, they call the inner city the Upper and Central Districts, and the western part of the outer city the College District, where nearly twenty colleges of all sizes are gathered. To the northwest is the fleet district, the dock area, then the most extensive commercial area, the shantytown with the largest foreign population, the city defense barracks in the northeast, and the remaining south and east are residential blocks.
Although the city of Moriente is the capital of the Fude Business Alliance, the Council of the Council, the highest authority of the business alliance, is not responsible for the management of the city. The day-to-day administration of Morente is handled by the City Hall in the central district, which is appointed by the Council for a five-year term, at the end of which the City Council, composed of representatives elected by each block, deliberates on the results and then communicates the results to the Council, which decides whether to succeed or remove him.
In order to avoid corruption and streamline administrative personnel, a very strange policy was introduced from the perspective of businessmen, that is, the underground underworld organizations were openly faced. The purpose of contracting out the administrative management of public security, tax collection, and sanitation in each neighborhood to the bosses of underground underworld organizations is to divide and avoid the unification and growth of underground underworld organizations. Second, it has reduced the expenditure and human resources of urban administration. The third is that it is easy to manage the underground underworld organization after it is made visible, for example, if the residents of a certain neighborhood complain about the responsible underworld organization, the city hall will ban its underworld organization and carry out a special crackdown, which will also get the assistance of other underworld organizations in the adjacent block.
When this policy was first introduced, no one was optimistic, and it took two years to realize the ingenuity of this policy. Not only has the law and order situation improved dramatically, and there are few serious crimes, but the city hall has received a large amount of tax revenue, and has been able to invest more in public services, further improving the living environment of the city.
This result surprised the people who laughed at the Fude Business Alliance for not understanding city management, and many kingdoms and principalities even sent people to investigate. After inspecting it, a grand duke sighed: The noble officials of the kingdom are not as honest and efficient as the members of the underground underworld organization, which is really humiliating.
This is the city of Morente, a city of merchants, a place of vitality and whimsy. Some people see it as a paradise in their hearts, while others denounce it as a fallen land where the devil tempts mankind.
During the day, the cries of the streets and the prayers of the temple echo in a staggered manner. At night, the lights are red and the wine is green, and the song swallows are full of breath. This is the city that never sleeps, Moldant.
