About The Republic
The Republic of Lonzie is an autonomous military micronation found throughout the mountains of the Cebu Province. Founded after a heated argument about the relationship between Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde in the 2016 Disney Animated Film Zootopia, it remains under the authoritarian rule of Emperor Alonzo "Lonzie" Bonaparte.
With a population of just over 26,000 (including bunnies registered as citizens for tax purposes), Lonzie boasts a GDP of 20 billion USD, most of which comes from selling [REDACTED] on Deviant Art and offering services such as [REDACTED].
As a nation permanently under martial law, every man, woman, and all those in between (queers, amirite?) are immediately enlisted into the military at birth under the Infant Infantry. Every citizen in this nation is a member of the military by default, with the rare exception of [REDACTED], who are immediately added to the Emperor's harem.
Despite its authoritarian nature, The Republic of Lonzie maintains a hard stance against the use of Artificial Intelligence in Art. Other industries, however, can "go f*ck [sic] themselves to obsolescence".

This is the official portrait of Emperor Lonzie, commissioned from Wowa, winner of the 2018 National Digital Manipulation Award (and was later executed for digital manipulation of the Emperor), as a birthday gift to Basil from Anika, Adean, and Julian.
Only one ultra high definition copy was made, and it was printed out in 600 DPI. Afterward, the original digital file was destroyed to ensure that Basil will be the only owner of this magnificently sexy masterpiece.

This photoshoot was made as a continuation to a recently established tradition of gifting Basil portraits of Lonzie for his birthday. Anika, Adean, and Julian organized a photoshoot with Lonzie and had the photos digitally manipulated by Wowa without the use of AI.
We aim to make this a yearly tradition, where our Lonzie-centric birthday gifts will only get bigger and more expensive as time goes on.
Happy birthday, Bas. Expect more sooner than you think.
