Saturday, August 11 was a most historic day. The empire of India, led by Asoka the Wise, was declared the victor. The member nations of the Christian religion, gathered together at the Apostolic Palace, voted India winner of all history. Despite the abstention of the voting members representing America and Rome, India won in a landslide.
Some question the fairness of the victory, as it was one by India voting for itself. However, the victory wouldn't have been possible without the control of the former lands of Korea and the Zulu. Won in bloody wars by the conquering heroes of India, these lands tipped the voting in favor of India, and allowed them to take their spot at the forefront of the world.
Critics also site the almost predetermined incompetence of the Zulu and Korean armies, who were far behind India in both technology and skill. "Its almost as if Asoka was an emperor playing against chieftains," American military historian Shelby McPherson declared. Officials for the Asoka administration refused to comment on this criticism.
President Lincoln of America had little to comment on the matter, save for congratulating Asoka and his people on their victory. Augustus, leader of the founding nation of Taoism, said that Christianity had few followers in his empire, but that gladiatorial games would be held in Asoka's honor.
