Since the OGAT government is struggling to cope with the dwindling population, they have decided to split their efforts, embarking on multiple projects to increase both the population and popularity. The President, Mr. Cominu, has decided to pursue an unconventional strategy to boost the population—cloning. Although a previous attempt went disastrously wrong, Cominu insists this time will be different. He claims to have acquired a hair strand from football legend Cristiano Ronaldo and successfully integrated it into their cloning project. According to the government's executive panel, his plan is to mass-produce CR7 clones and dominate the global football industry, thus turning OGAT into the sport’s ultimate destination.
In an exclusive interview with the Guardian team, the CR7 clones, each wearing identical jerseys with the number 7 emblazoned on their backs, nervously fielded questions. One clone, barely able to distinguish himself from his neighbors, admitted, “I think I’m the original,” while another clone suggested they start a YouTube channel to share behind-the-scenes footage of their identical lives—a plan they dubbed The CR7 Chronicles.
Meanwhile, the Vice President, Helba, inspired by his Italian roots and love for classical architecture, has opted for a more cultural approach. He is offering free architecture courses to anyone willing to come to OGAT, even throwing in free land as an incentive. “We need a fresh start,” Helba explained, “and nothing says fresh like a bunch of untrained students playing around with prime real estate.” His hope is that one of them will accidentally create a revolutionary design, transforming OGAT into the architectural capital of the world. Critics, however, have noted that Helba has no qualifications in teaching, but he shrugged off concerns, saying, “Creativity thrives in chaos.”
Due to the strict secrecy surrounding Helba's project, the Guardian team was unable to speak directly with the students.
As Helba’s architecture initiative gains traction, curiosity is brewing among prospective students, who are drawn by the promise of free education and land. Meanwhile, Mr. Cominu's CR7 clones have sparked heated debates—will they draw tourists, or will a nation of identical sports superstars overshadow Helba's dream of turning OGAT into a creative utopia? This clash of agendas has led to a bizarre but unexpectedly fruitful collaboration, with clone supporters offering to model for Helba’s students, resulting in sketches of buildings shaped like perfectly poised football poses.
The fate of OGAT hangs in the balance as sport and art collide in this bold experiment for national revival. On the one hand, the CR7 clones are dazzling fans worldwide with their synchronized football moves, drawing thousands of eager tourists. On the other, Helba’s students are reportedly experimenting with new materials—like inflatable stone—to build the world’s first bubble cathedral. This peculiar competition could lead to an entirely new identity for OGAT, a place where the unexpected is the norm.
Only time will tell whether this daring double act will result in a flourishing, vibrant population or descend into utter chaos. Perhaps OGAT will become a hub of creativity, innovation, and tourism, or perhaps it will be known as the place where cloned athletes and amateur architects failed spectacularly in tandem. Regardless of the outcome, the Guardian team will be with you documenting the marvelous world of OGAT.
