How I've raised the interstellar empire
When I was a child I had a dream, a dream of an ultimate empire, an interstellar empire to rule the whole universe.
I started planning how it'll be structured and wherefrom I will get the needed force. But knew that I couldn't rise such a big thing on my own...
So I decided to tell my friends about my idea. A few of them were sceptic, but this hadn't stopped me. I kept on to let my big dream become true with the help of my friends. They were always there for me and helped me a lot. You could say that there was and still is a magic bond between us. Friendship is just pure magic...
The first step on my long way was to start a blog on Tumblr with two good friends.
Within a month our blog had more than thentousand followers. The idea of the ultimate empire influenced everybody who got in contact with it.
The number of our followers was growing continously. Soon our blog became the most popular one in the world.
It was just unbelievable for my friends and me!
After two years my idea broke out of the digital world and invaded the real one. A little bit later everybody on earth has known the idea of the interstellar empire...
The interstellar empire stands for equality, freedom and peace for everyone.
The first rebellions of the earth's nations against their governments started and with the rebellions the trouble for my friends and me began...
The governments blamed us for the uprisings all over the world. But the governments weren't the ruler of their folks anymore, so they couldn't suppress them any longer.
It all started to become a self-running thing, which was going to change the world's order.
Soon the corrupt governments fell and I was elected to be the new president of the world, the new chancellor. :)
The world wasn't enough and the empire started to explore the universe and became what it's now, the interstellar empire!
