invitation
To meet the desire for an international spread of culture, cultural houses have been built abroad. Perhaps the realm would like to consider a noble cultural embassy. One that can go anywhere.
Two ways are open: a culture-ship can be built for the air, and a seagoing ship for long circumnavigations. Culture mobiles with all means of artistic production, a meeting space for domestic and foreign artists, scientists, journalists...
A collection point is needed on shore where the precipitation is stored and distributed.
In the future, a fleet can be developed for our most important export product: art.
