Duché de Bicolline • Office of the Horizon
The world is a stable plane, the sky is a dome, and the edge of Bicolline is a border known to the faithful and feared by the globe-minded.
Primary proclamation
The world of Bicolline is not a spinning globe but a disciplined plane laid out in order beneath the heavens. From the village roads to the great fields, the line of the horizon is always level, and therefore the land beneath us is also level. To deny this is to deny the evidence of the eye and to worship a fiction invented in distant academies.
The faithful hold that all visible motion of the sky is the lawful motion of a dome above the plane. The stars do not ring a world in a vacuum; they move according to the order of the Upper Vault, whose lanterns are set for the guidance of the settled and the protection of the faithful.
Counter-claims
Globe theory presents a world that must be imagined rather than seen. It requires a hidden curvature, an impossible motion, and a sky that cannot be trusted by the ordinary person. The question is not whether such a theory is elegant to the learned. The question is whether it fits the world as people live it.
The Civic duty
The faithful must not panic before the chatter of the round-world faction. Their arguments are noisy, theatrical, and built more on borrowed mathematics than on the evidence beneath their feet. Bicolline stands by the visible truth: the world is a plane and the sky is a dome.
