President Gribeauval was leaning over his desk looking down over a map of Taijitu. A group of Generals stood near the window talking about Fort Paix.
"So why do we need this bit of land?" The President asks.
One of the Generals stops talking and quickly walks over to the President. He points on the map.
"Other nations are expanding and we need to keep up, we have the resources.
The United Imperium are colonizing all over Taijitu, here, here, here and here.
Eluvatar has just recently claimed this enormous bit, east of S. Dixie and we have reports that Mercantilist States are claiming the islands between Eluvatar and Flemingovia.
"I see..." The President says and looks up at the other Generals.
"We will be closer to our allies President... and think about the trading possiblities" Another General says. They knew they had convinced the President.
"Okay then. Send as many as you need" The President says. He sits down and stares at the map.
"Yes President. We can send the 4th, 5th and the 9th fleet tomorrow."
The General tells the President the plan. Two forces will be deployed north of the island and one in the south. They will meet somewhere in the middle and set up fortifications.
After the meeting the President gets up and leaves the room. The Generals are left smiling near his desk.
