    Livestreamed Holograms, long distance video calls, and modern-sounding “air ships.” Written by a woman in Ohio in 1880. Seriously. Buckle up.

    Part First: Chapter 11

    Part First: Chapter 11

    A Mizoran lady describes an eerily familiar “ancient” political system. Two parties uninterested in the real welfare of the country - focused only on utilizing the media to disparage the opposition. In modern Mizora, politics was purified by universal education. “Politicians began to work for their country instead of themselves and their party.” That would be nice.

    Machines do all the dirty work so that Mizorans are free to explore their intellect. Electric water heaters and modern greenhouses (complete with regulated temperatures and CO2 levels) are described in this chapter written in 1880.
