 ====== Imperial Archives ====== ====== Imperial Archives ======
-The Imperial Archives, known as Koshitshu no Akaibu in [[language:yamataigo|Yamataigo]], or simply as the Archives, is a [[wp>multimedia]] [[wp>repository]] located in the [[places:kyoto#imperial_district|Imperial District]] of [[places:kyoto]], [[planet:yamatai]]. It is maintained by a combined team of [[wip:faction:yamatai:department_of_information]] and the [[faction:yamatai:sss]] personnel. Rather than being one building, it is a complex of five or seven buildings (depending on the administrative buildings) situated around the large Imperial Library. It was built by architect & archaeologist Yuri Shihagana in [[timeline:ye_26]] over the much smaller Imperial Archive using a large sum of funds received from retired politicians Harold Clipper and Itshi Nogara. Other important contributors include computer scientist Koshita and astronomer Tokomori.+The Imperial Archives, known as Koshitshu no Akaibu in [[language:yamataigo|Yamataigo]], or simply as the Archives, is a [[wp>multimedia]] [[wp>repository]] located in the [[places:kyoto#imperial_district|Imperial District]] of [[places:kyoto]], [[planet:yamatai]].

 Its tallest building - the Observatory - is 100 metres high and the complex spans just under 800 metres in width and 600 metres in length. It is accessed through the south-eastern gate, which is connected to the aptly named Archive Street that leads eastward back to the Palace Square, which houses the [[faction:yamatai:empress_palace]] and [[faction:yamatai:imperial_palace]]. From the skyline, the buildings are not very visible, but from above, the distinctive compass-rose shape of the complex can be seen quite easily. Its tallest building - the Observatory - is 100 metres high and the complex spans just under 800 metres in width and 600 metres in length.

-At the eastern end of the rose stands the most visited building of the complex, the Natural History Museum. It is 40 metres high, 120 metres broad, and has a large collection of natural history specimens. Behind the entrance, which boasts a small statue of [[characters:yamatai:yui]], stands the large lobby; behind it, the museum is divided into several sections, including [[wp>prehistory]], [[wp>tropical]], [[wp>artic]], [[wp>oceanic]], and [[wp>Humans]]. The museum also holds temporary [[wp>exhibition|exhibitions]] - gathering specimens from across [[faction:yamatai_star_empire|Yamatai]] space - and is home to several eyecathers, including a massive skeleton of a prehistorical [[wp>woolly mammoth]], the skeleton of a [[wp>blue whale]], and various objects saved from the destruction of [[location:geshrinopolis]]. In terms of visitors, it lacks behind the Yamatai National Museum, but it is the most visited scientific museum on [[planet:yamatai]].+At the eastern end of the rose stands the most visited building of the complex, the Natural History Museum.
