If it weren’t for Bushius and Cheneyius their civilization would still reign.

Obamius Kenyanicus just inherited too much to overcome.

See. The more things change...

Excuse me for being extremely stupid, but why are these finds always under the earth?

It would seem to me that the original towns stripped away all trees, etc, so that leaf decay would not have created new earth around the old structures. If new structures were built upon the rubble of an old structure, I would have thought that the new structure would have used the stones, etc. from the old structure to make it much easier to rebuild.

So why are all these finds of ruins under so much earth???

They should have changed the name from Dunovaria to DunRoman.
