Aparently, I wake up one morning and see myself without a palace. Now its not good for a Maharajadhiraja to live without a palace for himself. Thus, I am giving everyone a chance to design a palace for your Maharajadhiraja. Hmm... Since we are based on Nepal, I'd say something that looks Nepali (or nearby regions) would be great. I was thinking something along the lines of Potala Palace. Image of a palace from the sides, or however you want to show your designs are welcome. Once this is done, I am thinking we can expand to several other construction projects.

That's for you. You can design your own (ie. make your own impression of what a royal palace should be) or simply provide images of those you like.

Maybe that is good as a part of the Palace... I am thinking that a palace (based on Indian layout of Agra Fort) would need the following sites/buildings/sites: - Gardens - large geometrically arranged gardens
- Hall of Public Audience - used to speak to the people and listen to petitioners.
- Hall of Private Audience - used to receive kings and dignitaries.
- Entertainment House - a place where the musicians play and dances are held
- Royal Living Quarters - for the King, queen, and remaining royal family. (all separate / different floors)
- Private Work Areas - private work areas for the King and some other important people
- Dressing Rooms - for royal family.
The following were the division of Potala Palace (Tibet): - White Palace - living quarters, offices, seminary, printing house,
- Yellow Courtyard - tombs, monk assembly hall, chapels and shrines, libraries
- Red Palace - different areas like chapels and halls all devoted to religious studies.
Now, we don't mix religion with politics, thus having anything religious in the Palace is out of question. I'll try and get a layout out sometime soon so we can work on something from there. Ah oh.. before I forget.. since micronational economies have failed with us in the past and since we do not have any working yet... i guess there's an unlimited budget here. So, if you want the entire Palace to be of White Marbles (like Taj Mahal) then its possible.

It would be a religious chamber and thus, cannot be put in the palace.

I know. I was just telling you what to expect if you step outside the palace...

I'm all for it. The back yard would make the stench of human corpses lighter! Thank you my lord!

Hmm. Yes. The stench could be an issue. Now make sure the sacrificial chamber is outside the official boundary of the Royal Palace and somewhere downwind. Also dont put any windows on the side facing the Royal Palace. It would be bad if a foreign digitory were to see such an incidence from the Palace, while discussing matters with me.
And offcourse, it should be constructed in secret. That is to say, that the local people, especially the media, should not know the real purpose of this building. As well, conduct the sacrifices in secret.

I see, my lord. This calls for sound-proof walls.... Will need some extra funding. You could build it in the basement and have the human oils used for heating, I understand its a relatively cheap process. We can invent a special anti-odor chemical or some sort to deal with the stench, or you could always say the smell is coming from the kitchen and is the trademark of a special stew. You could even serve some to your magestic visitors, my lord! Surely they will then be blessed by the mighty Noi'litem..

Sound proof wall. Basement / underground facility. All good ideas.
I suggest putting some open-air restaurants on the land above your temple. They could be manned by your followers etc. It will also help mask some of the odor.
