Aerica Becoms Profitable
The Aerican Government has established an All Advantage account and begun making money, which is being put towards the purchase of a domain name and new lands. Citizens have been encouraged to become refferals for this account to boost its earnings.
Aerica turns 13!
The Aerican Empire entered its thirteenth year on May 8, 2000. Unlike the last year, where the anniversary was filled with speeches and celebration, this year the holiday was passed over fairly quietly.
"The Inner Council met," said the Emperor. "We decided that a big celebration wasn't really neccesarry. We'll reserve the celbrations for when we really do soemthing, not some date."
Speculation among citizens is that organization is being made to inscrease Aerica holdings, either through buying land or a domain name, to celebrate the date.
