The '''Aura International Convention Center''' ([[Oan language|Oan]]: ''Te Pōkapu Ao-ao o te Huihuinga o te Aura,'' [[Ethalrian language|Ethalrian]]: ''Internationales Kongresszentrum Aura'', [[Wikipedia:Georgian language|Salovian]]: ''Aura Saertashoriso Sak’onperentsio Tsent’ri'' or simply '''AICC''') is a skyscraper complex in [[Aura]], [[Emberwood Coast]] that currently serves as the headquarters of the [[United Nations of the Auroran Continent]] (UNAC).
 
Line 7 ⟶ 29:
Once a year, the Parliament, President of the UNAC Commission, Commission and Council go to [[Sani Bursil]], [[Great Morstaybishlia]] (MBE), to hold their summer session. This is due to a compromise in the UNAC Charter that affords equal status to Sani Bursil as a co-headquarters of the UNAC. This compromise was due to the fact that the Oan Isles and MBE insisted that as the former headquarters of the [[Auroran Union]], seat of the government of the most powerful nation on the continent and its historic, economic and cultural importance and geographic centrality, Sani Bursil was deserving of being a seat of the UNAC. Other UNAC entities are housed elsewhere on the continent such as the [[Auroran Court of Justice]] in Andel, [[Axdel]], the [[Auroran Monetary Fund]] in [[Tokapa]], [[the Oan Isles]], and the [[Auroran Security Agency]] in Oceansend City, [[Oceansend]].

The AICC is built in the Emberitian Post-Modernism style. It has a green outward sheen due to the use of impure glass that has copper particles. The choice to use impure glass was because of its beautiful colour, relatively low cost and heat management properties. It is builted in a stepped format, whereby structures project from a central tower like side pieces attached to a larger whole so that it looks like multiple towers of varying heights fused irregularly together. The building does not have a prominent spire. This use of irregular-seeming sillouettes that provide a different view of the building depending on the angle is one of the most prominent features of Emberitian Post-Modernism.
The structure itself has existed for only a few years. The previous building was further inland, and had stood since 1976, and the reunification of the continent after [[The Auroran Imperial War]]. The building, with the exception of some secure areas, is open to all people, races, and is considered joint property of Aura and the International Community. The Main Corridor circumscribes the Assembly Room, features the flags of all Auroran member nations. The Assembly Room is where intercontinental meetings are held; It is a large conference center, capable of hosting over a thousand diplomats comfortably. It features a large holographic array, to show any data the speaker needs to the entire room. Outside the Assembly Room, the upper levels house World Assembly, East Pacific, and Auroran Diplomats that haven't yet established an embassy in the Coast or in Aurora.
