4th of July in Liberty?

[Vulkhard Muller]

On the flipside, I don't see why they would.

Even though Liberty is based on America, there's no reason why the 4th would be celebrated as an actual patriotic holiday by Libertonians.

When you separate player knowledge from character knowledge you gotta ask yourself: "What meaning does it really have to a character that was born a thousand years after America ceased to exist?"

America as it is comes from England, & yet Americans don't celebrate patriotic British Holidays. What's the point? the country evolved a separate identity & created its own holidays.

That's not to say Libs wouldn't treat it as an annual observance & a shallow excuse to call in sick to work & go out partying (like, St. Patrick's Day or Cinco de Mayo) but I don't see any logical reason why a Libertonian would give a rat's ass about the fourth of July a thousand years later any more than any given American gives a rat's ass about...uh, let's say, Boxing Day right now.

Makes alot more sense to pick a day from the disco timeline & create an annual holiday observance that would mean something to a native Libertonian & not the player behind the screen

So say for example:

Lander's Day ( the day that the first Libertonians landed on Manhattan)

Sure. Why not?

There's nothing that says it can't be done

This place has been creating its own unique lore for years, and one original idea that supports it & builds upon it, is worth more than a hundred dirivative ideas that pop up all the time.
