The Ludwiggian Semaphore System is a national communication system in Sankt Ludwigshafen, consisting of a line of relay towers from the border with Walstadt, Natopia near Nieuw Rotterdam in the south, to the border with Baudix, Natopia near Boterbaai in the north. The towers are built at separations of 12 kilometres, with each tower outfitted with two semaphores, one for messages in southern direction, and one for messages in northern direction. Each of the semaphores is operated by a soldier who uses a telescope to monitor the relay tower he expects a message from. When an urgent message is to be sent, a fire is ignited at the top with a special mixture containing lithium, creating an extremely bright carmine red flame.
The Ludwiggian Semaphor System was established in 1721 following the 1721 Ludwiggian coup d'état attempt when Raspur Pact allies expressed concerns that the government in Sankt Ludwigshafen was unable to call for support from its allies, when it was under attack. Construction began on 2.X.1721 with a line of towers from Stadt Sankt Ludwigshafen to the border with Baudix, Natopia in the north. Construction of this first line was finished on 14.III.1722. Construction on the second part of the line, from Stadt Sankt Ludwigshafen to Walstadt, Natopia in the south began on 2.IV.1722 and was finished on 22.I.1723. The towers on the border had an adjacent building on the Natopian side in which modern computers were placed, to facilitate communication with the wider Raspur Pact and especially Cibola Command.
