Site: Quetzalxochitl-Huitztonqui Signs
Location: Quetzalxochitl-Huitztonqui Desert, Istapali
Applicable criteria for assessment: (i.), (ii.)
Reference: https://particracy.wikia.com/wiki/Quetz ... nqui_Signs

Background: Located in one of the globe's largest deserts in Istapali, the Quetzalxochitl-Huitztonqui Signs are a set of geoglyphs constructed thousands of years ago by unknown creators who have long disappeared from the face of Terra. Over the centuries, the Signs have been a source of wonder and confusion and have remained in tact despite constant political upheaval in the region. The images they portray vary from simple geometric patterns and shapes to more complex depictions of trees, monkeys, spiders, goats, alpacas and even human beings. The purpose of the lines is hotly debated but the current consensus is that they have some spiritual significance.

Site- Imperial Summer Palace, better known as Oalapiva, w
Location -Fort William
Applicable criteria for assessment(ii),(iii),(iv)

Reference-https://particracy.fandom.com/wiki/Residences_of_the_Holy_Luthori_Emperor

Background -The Imperial Summer Palace, better known as Oalapiva, was the original main palace complex of the Luthori Emperor's. It was started by Emperor Richard to not just be his palace, but a Government city, where all parts of the government would meet and govern the Empire. However during his long absence while he was on his Crusade, the palace was expanded on by the many Viceroys, who made it their own. It almost became a tradition to expand the palace and make it better than the one before. By the time Edward II took the throne, after Richard was finally deemed to not ever be returning, the palace was transformed into his private house, with many government offices being crammed into the smaller buildings. It would be for that reason, that the palace following the crowning of William III was abandon as the center of the Empire. The Palace was full of corruption and moral decay, that the Emperor deemed the need to build separate buildings for the the government in the capital. However, it would not be until after the War of Luthori Succession that this would happen, with Fort William being named the new capital. Under the rule of Empress Mary, Queen of Luthori, the Palace would be repaired and remade into a historic monument and palace for the Imperial family to stay in when they wished. The palace remains open to the public and is one of the most popular tourist attractions due to is one of kind gardens that were commissioned by William III in honor of his wife Mary.
