- Summary:
- Dr. Daniel Rolph, historian at the Historical Society of Pennsylvania (HSP), created the Kingdom of Historia. A fictional kingdom whose citizens are the employees of HSP. Every staff member has the option of receiving a noble title of the Kingdom. Alina was given "Contesa de Walahia" (since she was born in Roumania). Since Alina worked in HSP's conservation lab, the image on the post-card is of a soot sponge (an archival sponge used to clean soiled paper) monument in the city of Conservatoria's main square.
