+ Once you are registered, you can start engaging in the kingdom social community (and soon be able to visit your kingdom’s metaverse environement.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Three Kingdom Structure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
+ When you obtain a Mao, you will be designated a loyal citizen of one of the Three Kingdoms: Wei, Wu or Shu.
+ When you register a FREE Mao, you are an undeclared citizen, but may be recruited to join a kingdom based on your recorded activities.
+ Kingdoms are pitted against each other in the amount of wealth they collectively gather, their overall engagement, activism, and their total contributions to real-world humane socielties and animal shelters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kingdom Currency<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
+ Wealth is measured in Kingdom Rice (>kR). It can be referred to >kR, Kingdom Rice, or “kR” Tokens.
+ One grain of rice is equivalent to 0.001 USC. 1000 >kR equals one US cent, therefore 100,000 >kR = $1.00 USD.
+ Kingdom net worth is \u201din-game\u201d value and cannot be cashed-out for USD.
+ The only way to get USD out of the Mao Kingdom is through the sale of your NFT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Real-World USD Currency<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
+ The only way to get USD out of the M\u0101o Kingdom is through the sale of your NFT.
+ 10% of all profit (USD) will be designated to US humane societies and animal shelters in the form of grants. Kingdom populations will assist in determining the recipients of the grant awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Grow Wealth and Increase Your Net Worth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
+ All M\u0101os begin with a “Starting Net Worth.”
+ You increase wealth with participation and engagement within the M\u0101o Kingdom and activities in the real word.
+ Your \u201din-game\u201d net worth increases the appraisal value of your M\u0101o.
+ To bypass many of the early obligations and requirements, you can purchase a middle-class or upper-class M\u0101o NFT and start with a respectable rank and net worth.
+ You always have the option to increase wealth with direct USD to >kR deposits.
+ There are a variety of ways to growth wealth:
\u2014- Deposit USD to >kR.
\u2014- Hire common class M\u0101os to work the rice fields. You receive a percentage of their yield. (See Rice Fields Clicker Game)
\u2014- Anyone from any class or rank can opt to work the fields and keep 100% of the yield.
\u2014- Obtain educational degrees.
\u2014- Obtain skill certifications.
\u2014- Purchase Investment NFTs. These investments work just like in the real world. You buy an NFT investment, keep it for a designated period of time, then see an in-game payout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wealth Class, Status Class, and Kingdom Rank<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
+ All M\u0101os begin with a “Starting Status Rank” and are designated a class (Common, Middle, Upper, or Royal). + As a common-class M\u0101o, you will likely be invited to be an apprentice or employee from a middle-class Mao (Farmer, Artisan, or Merchant). + As a commoner or lower-class M\u0101o, once you engage and increase your net worth and community ranking, you can apply for an apprenticeship. You must then receive and invitation from a higher class M\u0101o and be accepted. This will earn you more net worth and help you climb the social ladder towards middle-class. + Once a month, Ovadeus, the supreme ruler and holder of the Mandate of Heaven will stream live via Twitch to provide status reports, bestow praise upon individual Maos that complete certifications and training, exceed expectations, and show outstanding engagement. Rewards are granted in the form of Kindom Rice (>kR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
+ You can see where you and all other Maos racnk here in the Kingdom Status Rank and Net Worth standings<\/a>.
+ Your Status Rank is tied directly to your Net Worth. See Status Rank Chart<\/a> here for status\/net worth information.
+ Your Class is separate from your Status Rank and Net Worth (You can have extreme wealth and still be Middle Class, this would be considered “New Money.” You can only move up in class by being nominated by your kingdom emperor. If accepted, the conferment will be made by Ovadeus, the Supreme Ruler during the monthly Imperial Examination.)
+ Serial NFTs (i.e. Farmer 001, Farmer 002, Farmer 003, etc.) indicate status based on “Starting Net Worth”. For example, Farmer 001 will start with more net worth that Farmer 200. It is important to maintain your status and not allow a lower ranking NFT overtake your starting position.
+ To bypass many of the early obligations and requirements, you can purchase a middle-class or upper-class M\u0101o NFT and start with a higher status rank and net worth.<\/p>\n\n\n\nCommon Mao Opportunities (Apprentiships)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
+ If you accept, you work on behalf of the employer, part of your earning will go to that employer. However, if you commit to the employer for 30 days and successfully grow wealth, you may apply for a middle-class<\/p>\n\n\n\nClimb The Social Ladder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
+ All common-class and middle-class M\u0101os can accelerate their net worth, status, and ranking by purchasing educational diplomas, training certificates, and other accolade NFTs. All of these come with a >kR financial stipend.<\/p>\n\n\n\nImperial Examination (Mandated by Heaven) Live Stream<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
