Welcome to the UNU Universe. The events of Ikaeu Princess takes place around the founding of the UNU nation and the dying Olim Ikaeu Imperium in the first half of the 8900s. Victima Politica Tragica CCCI, the princess of the ikaeu species, lives in a traditional outdated society, as her nation comes to terms with human annexation. Unlike most nobility she likes humans, in particular the son of the human president she met when she was six. Augusto is a symbol to Victima over the possibilities and bright future her species have if they put their ancient hatred to the side. As she grows up Victima witnesses the political and personal changes of the hostile environment around her, in particular one radical ikaeu whose had an obsession over her since they were kids. In the most dire of circumstances it is this ultra traditional radical ikaeu which symbolizes the tragedy of Victima's beloved species. Yet there is also a light with the birth of another ikaeu that Victima treasures above all else.

This book examines intermediate appellate courts by using the Irish Court of Appeal as a case study.The operation and contribution of intermediate appellate courts are often overlooked in legal scholarship, which tends to focus on apex courts, most frequently national supreme courts. However, intermediate appellate courts perform a series of vital functions, including error prevention, the development of doctrine, and ensuring that apex courts are free to concentrate on issues of exceptional public importance. The significance of intermediate appellate courts has increased in recent decades in tandem with an increase in the volume and complexity of litigation in many countries.The Irish Court of Appeal was established in 2014 and this enables a number of dimensions of non-apex courts to be examined, including the rationales for, and challenges of, inserting such a court into an existing and well-established legal system. Institutional aspects of the court such as the appointment and promotion of its judges and its rules on dissent are analysed. The process of 'setting up court' is described. In addition, its contribution to some areas of substantive law over the first 10 years of its operation is evaluated. Interviews with judges who have served on the Court enrich the book's account of its operation and development. In addition, comparative perspectives from Northern Ireland and England and Wales enhance the analysis of an integral part of many legal systems.

"Hello reader. Yes I''m staring at you and speaking. You find it odd that I broke from the fourth wall, or what I personally consider a fourth set of eyes. My name''s Abraham, and I''m a historian of my family''s history. Now I wonder what a historian is doing, introducing you to this rabbit hole you''re about to enter. I can think of no better choice as I regale you with stories of family members from the ancient past to the present day. You have a front row seat as we take a glimpse of the various long and complex history that makes up the UNU nation. Feel free to sit next to my thirty-two grandchildren and wonder about the lives ordinary people experienced in both mundane and interesting periods of the past. As you get a picture of how our nation rose to become the power it is today I ask you to remember one thing. We are not fictional characters, we are not here for your entertainment. We are real people trying to live our lives, I hope you see us as such, and care for us as the living individuals who stand right before you. For those of us on this side of the spectrum, we see you looking and wondering what we''re thinking. We wonder and think what compelled you to sit down and listen to me ramble of times long past.""Grandfather... who are you talking to?""Manuel, you''re here. Look very carefully and you can see the person who will be joining us on our history tour.""I don''t see anyone. Can you please help us with our history project now? I''m still not sure which ancestor to choose for the ten-thousandth anniversary of the founding of the first galactic nation in.""Patience, lad, I''ve got plenty to discuss. And while I''m at it maybe try and spot the individual joining us with their fourth set of eyes.""I don''t see anyone but us. I think you''re going crazy.""Aww, I''m sure you''ll figure it out in the epilogue. Join your siblings as I get ready. We have so many stories to discuss, from the first family refugees to the presidents of this great nation. Also take a look at any objects or events you see around you. Just looking at the mundane... there is a story in history behind how it came into existence. There is a story of every little thing around you that created the UNU.""Like this sword and ring you''re holding?""Yes, these little objects... obscure now, but something that changed the course of history from our family''s point of veiw. Everything I speak may not be accurate, as with all history it comes from a certain point of view... our family''s history, our legacy, our stories."
