The body of the Emperor was placed in the vestibule of the Hall of Martyrs for public viewing and the paying of respect.<ref>https://community.elitedangerous.com/en/galnet/uid/55c31f5a9657bac2700d630d</ref> An estimate seven million mourners arrived on Capitol and have waited in line to enter the vestibule where the Emperor’s body laid. Fewer than half were able to actually see the Emperor despite the dedicated efforts of the Imperial Palace curators. [[Hologram\|Holographic]] shrines were placed along the queue of the people waiting. <ref>https://community.elitedangerous.com/en/galnet/uid/55e6b8429657ba7a21ed4373</ref> The queue stretched several miles from the Imperial Palace, with the waiting time measured in days.<ref>https://community.elitedangerous.com/en/galnet/08-AUG-3301</ref>

	"Tourists, once they have amassed the documents required to visit the Achenar system, flock to see the Emperor's palace on Capitol. The building is a vast structure of a pink glass-like material which shimmers in the sun and glows as it re-emits the energy at night. Foreign visitors are welcomed by palace staff who use subtle pro-Empire propaganda in an attempt tp undermine the Federation. This greeting is not extended outside the palace grounds, where a person with a Federation accent is met with scorn unless money can be made out of them. The accent of the Empire has evolved out of Achenarians trying to mock the standard Federation diction by accentuating certain vowels. To the foreigner their speech sounds rather like a whine."<ref>Tourist Beacon 0160</ref>		"Tourists, once they have amassed the documents required to visit the Achenar system, flock to see the Emperor's palace on Capitol.
