JM: Perhaps I'm wrong (I'm used to that!) but I understood Sklyarenko's long word-golf to demonstrate ADA's blend of "Amerussia" and this is why he employed a different set of rules - just this time.
One can not help noticing Russian Bog ("God") in Log, the Antiterran Supreme Being, that's why I shuttled between English and Russian words. Deletion and addition of letters allowed me to visit more interersting places in my "round-the-word" trip. Btw., I missed Ford (in Aldous Huxley's The Brave New World they have Ford for a Lord) in my journey.
I forgot about the "atomic" meaning of Uranograd, so thanks to Victor.
As to King Alfin, I think B. Boyd in his book links him in to Alphina, the youngest of Judge Goldsworth's four daughters.
