2390s

This calm and pacifist society has little use for strangers who do not understand their way of life. More than anything, they would prefer to be left alone.

 

Culture

Worzelese

When the Online was colonised and uplifted by the Federation, they were given old Earth entertainment. Worzel Gummidge, a show about a scarecrow who originally appeared in a series of books by the English novelist Barbara Euphan Todd. 

1979-1981 television series, in Episode 2, the title Character, Worzel Gummidge, speaks Worzelese and teaches it to the Children he befriended. To speak Worzelese, you basically spell out a word in English but put "wor" between each letter and at the end, you say, "wor" again and then add "dip" for words with three or less letters or "zel" for words with four or more letters at the end (Worzel's first name, for instance, is W-wor-O-wor-R-wor-Z-wor-E-wor-L-wor-zel). 

Incumbent Premier Rose Garnder is Rose Garnder in English, but in Worzelese it would be. R-wor-O-wor-S-wor-E-zel.
