====Nāɂahilūmi monumental architecture====
Great Inquisitor Nāɂahilūma, during her reign, openly supported Chlouvānem cities to become more glorious and worthy of their role as centers of all civilization by adding in them new monumental buildings. Nāɂahilūmi architecture is less ornate than many previous styles, but is characterized by its strong eye-catching functional forms but still inspired by traditional designs; to Earthly eyes they remind of Fascist architecture, but slightly softer due to its frequent use of multiple thatched roof tiers. Among the many examples of Nāɂahilūmi architecture, some of the most important ones are the Light of Purity Tower (''kailāchlærim ga kārmāsa'') in Līlta, the huge new Hall of the People (''laili nāyāṣamva'') stadium and forum in Ajāɂilbādhi, and most notably the many examples in Līlasuṃghāṇa, which was seen as Great Inquisitor Nāɂahilūma as the most important center of civilization due to its role as holy city of the Yunyalīlta and seat of the Inquisition, and thus of the ultimate guide of what is right to follow. Great Inquisitor Nāɂahilūma first gave orders to create the new Episcopal Palace (''(lališire) juṃšadaṃṣrāṇa''), a monumental building in central Ṣrāvamaila ward, with many decorations completed using gold and gems from seized Skyrdegan artistic artifacts, and then the Parade Avenue (''lonenūnima'') and the People's Exhibition Ground (''laili maišildāryai''), an enormous exhibition ground along the lakeshore of Lūṣyambādhi, just north of Ṣrāvamaila. Other monuments include the three Nāɂahilūmi-era monumental gates<ref>Albeit these "monumental gates" function mostly as triumphal arches, they definitely resemble [[w:paifang|]] more than anything else. The only two such gates that actually may be said to be triumphal arches (albeit of the quadrifrontal type), in imitation of Western styles, are both in Līlasuṃghāṇa: the Kerultugi Gate (''kerultugi geiras''), whose construction was started by Great Inquisitor Nāɂahilūma commemorating the successful invasion of Evandor, but wasn't completed until well after the war, and the Gate of Communism (''yaivcārṇædanīyi geiras'') built in the Kaiṣamā era. Late in her reign, Great Inquisitor Nāɂahilūma had planned another Kerultugi Gate to be built in Līlta, her native city, but she was deposed even before a sketch could be made.</ref> (the Skyrdegan Gate (''ṣurṭāgausire geiras''), the Bronic Gate (''bronausire geiras''), and the Kuyugvaṣi Gate (''kuyugvaṣyausire geiras'')), and the Holy People's Gate (''brausalaili geiras''), a monumental complex (not only a gate) meant to glorify the supremacy of the Chlouvānem people as keepers of the ultimate knowledge (the Yunyalīlta). The most famous Nāɂahilūmi-era building is though the Hall of Purity (''kailānāyāṣamva''), a temple-like monumental building which was possibly thought by the Great Inquisitor as the ultimate monument to herself, celebrating her politics aiming for complete world purity as the most important person to ever have lived since the Chlamiṣvatrā taught the Yunyalīlta two millennia before; in fact, the centralmost ''jādamīlakeh''<ref>Personification of the Yunya.</ref> - a ''chlæraprasādham'', or statue of the Chlamiṣvatrā -, an oeuvre by Līnænuliāvi Lūlulkaicai ''Hāliehaika'', bears a striking resemblance in her facial traits to Great Inquisitor Nāɂahilūma. Among the building's ornaments there are also numerous references to the plan for purity by Great Inquisitor Nāɂahilūma, representing Līlasuṃghāṇa as the central place of the world, ultimate model for purity for the rest of the world, ruled by the Chlouvānem people and living following the Yunyalīlti principles. The building was not completed during Great Inquisitor Nāɂahilūma's reign, but only twenty years later, even after her death. Today it stands on the opposite side of the Gardens of the Inquisitorial Palace relative to the Inquisitorial Palace  (''murkadhānāvīyi amaha'') and the Blossoming Temple (''junyāmiti lārvājuṣa''), and it is the largest piece of Yunyalīlti architecture which is not a temple (there are eight ''lārvājuṣai'' which are larger, including the Blossoming Temple, as well as the Monastery of Gāṃrādhyah Mountain (''gāṃrādhyah ga ñarei ñæltryāmaha'') in the diocese of Cambhaugrāya). It is obviously not devoted to the public worship of former Great Inquisitor Nāɂahilūma and her achievements, but it is thought of instead as a monument to the ultimate purity of nature and to the Chlouvānem people, purest among the human creatures.
