THE ONLY CONSTANTS IN MY LIFE WILL BE GONE!
THE HORROR!
Anyway onto the flash fiction!


The Kingdoms and Their Numbers


      There were several kingdoms named by the number of their relationships in a great war.
      The first kingdom was conquered by the second kingdom. The second kingdom divided the first kingdom into two one part to give to its ally the third kingdom. But a revolution came and all the kingdoms came together into one fourth kingdom under a single crown. A fifth kingdom came from the far north and conquered the fourth kingdom making a new sixth kingdom from those two combined. A seventh even larger one came and ate up those two like a cat would eat a mouse. Then an eighth did the same. Then internal revolution inside these lands made ninth, tenth, eleventh and twelfth kingdoms thereafter.
      But after the twelfth kingdom they stopped numbering kingdoms. Because then they had to start numbering the democracies.
