Prime Minister House Opened

(Year 234, Winter) Mazaloom kingdom got its own Prime Minister House! It was debated a couple years ago, and now the building is ready, just in time for the upcoming election.

Current Prime Minister, Mr Wilder, is too old for re-election, and he will not move in. But our future PM will stay here for as long as holding the PM position. The building is not exactly a castle, but provides good standard facilities for a Prime Minister's many working tasks, like meetings and receptions, and upstairs there is enough space for a small family to reside. Private needs will vary from period to period, and because most top politicians are quite old, children might have left the nest already.

This week there was a formal opening of Prime Minister House, that is located at Willow Field in Gloomville (Region Gloom).

Do You Descend from King Baltazar II? (Part 4 of 5 - Advorton and Gloom)

Mazaloom kingdom is nearly 235 years old. The many monarchs left a wide set of descendants, located all over the kingdom. In this series we're learning what current residents do descend from the greatest king of them all; King Baltazar II, reigning Y2-Y48.

Back in the Medieval era his household resided at Heighwood Castle (Britechester), but his children and grandchildren spread widely, mostly through the well established aristocracy.

This is the last chapter, covering regions that include districts like Ciudad Enamorada, Chestnut Ridge, Oasis Springs, StrangerVille, Gloomville, Newcrest, Brindleton Bay and Evergreen Harbor. Only one more chapter remains, the abroad descendants.

People Chamber - Ministry of Health & Welfare

(Year 232, Summer) This is the fourth part of brief introductions to the 5 ministries of People Chamber. They are Law & Justice, Trades & Taxes, Culture & Entertainment, Health & Welfare, and finally Science & Education. Each ministry has 1 Minister joined by 3 or 4 members. Here is the current Ministry of Health & Welfare!

Left to right: Minister Rebekah Starks, Charlotta Mu. Crumpleton,
Lance Wooblershield, and Lady Alice (Northdale) de Gould.

This ministry has a total of 4 members including the Minister. Their main focus is the practical aspects of medical care, and welfare. This also includes sports and food/health aspects of certain businesses, such as restaurants/bars and hotels. In addition they oversee population's demographics including Residents Registry updates.

Charlotta Mu. Crumpleton

So, I'm out of town for a few weeks, and while not accessing my game, I thought why not introduce one of the two new Region 12 Councilors? You already met Charlotta Crumpleton in my As Sims Go By video series (season 3), but only in the background. Next episode (#3) she will be a lot more in focus as she leads the Science and Education Dept., and will discover a remarkable, long gone event involving Landgraab Science Lab. The episode will also give you (my take on) the truth about Johnny Zest.

Her full name is Charlotta Murderia Crumpleton. She is Head of House of Crumpleton, has turned 60 and married the 16 years younger Gunther (Munch) Crumpleton from Windenburg. They have twin sons Markus Christo and Martus Milton (8) and two cats. Both sons will of course be signed up with a private high school, but it's probable too early even telling what their likes and talents are. According to Charlotta's Head of House certificate, this house is meant to focus on painting and the Interstellar Smuggler branch of the Astronaut career, but nothing is written in stone.

Bon Voyage Retirement Home - Dead Lodgers

(Gloomville, Year 125) Earlier this year I started a mini series following the Bon Voyage Retirwement Home keeper, Tammy Oaksdale. More updates were planned, but then it took too long, and I decided to drop that series. I think anyone interested in ideas had got what was on offer, anyway.

Tammy Oaksdale still is the Keeper of this place, a residential lot where elders move in to rent one of four room units. She serves them food, manages the units, arranges flowers for decor purposes, does some cleaning, arranges a weekly activity - and now, as a few of the lodgers died, she also deals with contacting their relatives.
