Alte

Overview
The city of Alte (from the Latin "altum", meaning "high"), is the capital city of the Land of the God-Emperor. The central area of the Alte is located on-top of Montrouge and looks over the land below from every direction. Its high altitude is credited for its name. Not only is the view beautiful from the central fortress, but it is very easy to defend from the top of the steep mountain. Located on the fringes of Theios-Essukdal, Alte is to be one of the God-Emperor 's many bastions in the region.

History
Originally intending to settle in a small bay, the followers of the God-Emperor were kicked out of their first domicile by the coastal town of Pudding. Outraged by this aggression, but wanting his people to stay safe, God-Emperor MrAshApple and his followers left everything behind to eventually settle in an abandoned fort on the mountain top of Montrouge. The fort was mostly restored by the God-Emperor, his Superintendent treelopi, and Overlord Captain_Dino_CEO. The walls were repaired, the tower re-built and the crops re-planted. The city of Alte had a promising future.

Government
The government of Alte is strongly linked to the one of the Land of the God-Emperor. The city's official flag is a modified version of the national flag. If the banner of the Land of the God-Emperor was to change, so would Alte 's. The leader of Alte (called a baron) becomes the de-facto God-Emperor and rules over the other cities. Alte serves as headquarters for the Land of the God-Emperor, as a palace is being built. The Baron and therefore the God-Emperor has near absolute control on everything while serving as the leading religious figure. The social structure of Alte is based on the national one where the working class is divided between five ministries: Production, War, Commerce, Internal Affairs and love. At the moment, all of the ministries are based in Alte.

Construction
The construction of Alte has just begun, but much is already planned for the city. First, the inner walls must be complete. Only the front and left sides are completely protected from outside forces. Then, the Imperial palace must be constructed. Since this is the capital city, Alte will be the primary residence of the God-Emperor and his staff. As more followers of the God-Emperor integrate into Alte, the exterior farmland and habitational areas will be expanded to accommodate for the growing population.

Religion and Culture
The official religion of Alte (and the Land of the God-Emperor) is Servantism. Servantism is a religion that worships the God-Emperor who is not only head of state but also the religious leader. The Grand Church of the God-Emperor is also under construction within the inner fortress.
