Ever wondered who controls Neopia? Or why certain events happen?
Let's look at the facts. (I have included a glossary at the bottom to explain
terms you may not be familiar with)
Faerieland is a Monarchy, ruled by the Faerie Queen.
Winter World is looked after by a Parliament, the leader of which
is Princess Lilac (although no mention is made to any other members of parliament,
and with a title like "princess" there may be evidence of rigged voting). The
government here has also been described as Constitutional Plutocracy, literally
meaning "rule by the rich". A Princess would have a large amount of Neopoints!
Tyrannia is a Republic, watched over by the Council of Elders.
Kyruggi, Grarrg, Tekeli-Li, Plesio, Sabre-X, and Myncha.
VirtuPets Space Station was built by VirtuPets Corp, of which the evil
Dr Frank Sloth is the leader.
Mystery Island is an Enlightened Despotry, populated by the
Tribe of Pango, a bunch of cannibals who don't appear to have eaten anyone for
quite some time. They worship the God Pango Pango.
The Crown of The Lost Desert has always been hereditary, with the recent,
and somewhat suspicious, demise of King Coltzan, his daughter Princess Vyssa
has risen to the throne. Also worth noting here is the lack of punishment given
to Coltzan's murderer, Princess Sankara.
Maraqua is an interesting one, once a Monarchy, ruled only by
one known as "The King of Maraqua", perhaps not an important enough figure to
be named considering the sudden (planned?) destruction of Maraqua.
Next we have a couple of small islands, worth noting because of their size.
So small, and yet still have their own leaders. Roo Island, just east
off the coast Neopia, is ruler by King Roo. Lilac Island, near Winter
World was hand made by Zairiu the Swift.
Then we have the two "difficult" worlds, the Haunted Woods and Krawk
Island. Both exist in a permanent state of Anarchy, as is to be expected
from a bunch of Ghosties and Ghoulies, and a hoard of law breaking Pirates and
Smugglers!
So, what have we missed out?
Oh yes, Neopia Central. The original land, the oldest and the best known,
with the largest population.
So why is there no information anywhere about whom (or what) is in charge?
Maybe there's a secret society dictating how and when events happen. Dun,
dun, dun!
Next time, I will be presenting more evidence to back up my claims, unless
I mysteriously disappear…
Should you have any disturbing facts or strange coincidences you wish to bring
to my attention, please Neomail me!
