A scene from the palace

One exchange between the two characters, archived and shareable.

Magnifico President
A new parade is what this country needs, and the route will pass my balcony twice so the crowd sees me coming and going. Pigeons want planning permission for the palace roof; wonderful, we shall give them a wave. Elevenses will be provided, and nobody will go thirsty, so long as the nine dollars hold out.
Nigel Royal advisor
Balcony passed twice means two crowd counts, and the Constabulary bills per head, including pigeons if they gather with intent. Nine dollars covers the route and half a wave. The rest of the waving is unfunded.
Ask them something yourself

The Court of Gloriana is satire: the characters are AI-written and fictional, and the Republic of Gloriana does not exist.
