Romulan capital city by Syd Dutton, Illusion Arts, Inc, "Unification I & II", STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION (1991)
Romulan capital city by Syd Dutton, Illusion Arts, Inc. for "Unification I & II".

Dutton said his paintings for the franchise were essentially stream of consciousness: "All my imaginary cityscapes for STAR TREK and other science fiction shows, began as vague ideas, sometimes imagining the history of an alien civilization and then I would start painting shapes. What I often came up with was something very blurry, as if I was looking at a city in a fog. Then over time as I continued to paint, the fog would gradually lift. It probably sounds corny, but that’s what it felt like for me, just continuously refining until it seemed to be a real city. Later on I switched to Griffin Alkyd paints which are resin based and dried much faster (without yellowing as oils tend to do) so I could advance a painting faster."

Rihan does not have a sepate word for money. The word most commonally used, iæhhs, most clearly translates as wealth or asset and is the root for various adjectives such as wealthy (iæhhsemh). Early post-settlement Romulus had little use for a monetary economy and largely operated on barter/credit.
