[edit] Alcazar

As a matter of fact, General Alcazar is one of two rival military dictators of San Theodoros, the other being Gen. Tapioca. The two are used to overthrowing each other in turn. Although Alcazar is such a dictator, he is nonetheless considered as a goody, contrary to the other. Though Alcazar sentenced Tintin to death, allegedly for high treason (Broken Ear, pp.35-37), he was however glad to meet Tintin again, after he went into exile, working as knife thrower in a European music hall (7 Crystal Balls, pp. 9-13, 57).

In the last episode (Tintin and the Picaros), he seems to be somewhat as vain as his rival: he wanted to name 'Alcazaropolis' the capital city, whose original name was 'Las Dopicos', and that was renamed 'Tapiocapolis' afterwards (p. 54).

However, it's a shame that Alcazar did no more than Tapioca to help the lowest classes of the population living in shantytowns. Those poor people are still compelled to live in filth under the constant surveillance of military police whose uniforms only changed (p. 11 and 62).

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Alcazar 01 in the Broken Ear.jpg

Image:Alcazar 01 in the Broken Ear.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
