Foreign Invasion Force Takes On Small Farming Community
Taking advantage of your limited military capacity, the remote nation of Wezeltonia has invaded one of your distant overseas territories, the ANIMAL Isles. They claim sovereignty over the islands, despite NATIONSNAME’s colonialists having lived there for generations. An emergency meeting has been convened to discuss the matter.
I’ve encountered with many choices
1. “We should never have allowed our military to become this pathetic,” sighs Efthamia du Pont, your only Military Advisor. “It’s an open invitation for invasions. If we’re going to protect our shores against this enemy we need a show of strength – gather what resources we have and send them to protect the ANIMAL Isles. Time is of the essence!”
2. “I was never trained for this!” wails Private Barack de Castro, knock-kneed and rosy-cheeked. “If we go to full scale war with Wezeltonia we’re sure to lose, I just know it! Couldn’t we try, uh, ‘dip-low-mah-tic relations’? A little talk over tea and biscuits goes a long way! Then no one will need to go to w-w-war. Ahem. War.”
3. “Let’s not let national pride blind us to the facts,” argues Dave Janssen, an amateur historian. “I mean, those islands are practically next door to Wezeltonia, it’s not unreasonable to assume they might want to claim them. Where’s the benefit in wasting billions of CURRENCY on protecting a handful of colonials anyway? There’s nothing there but grass, mud, and ANIMAL farms.”
4. “Those ‘colonials’ are proud, legal citizens of the NATIONSAME, moron,” says Fleur CAPITAL, fully bedecked in a suit fashioned after the national flag. “And they deserve to be protected! A slight against one of us is a slight against all of us! We’ve gotta show those Wezeltonians we mean business! If you take over the factories, institute an emergency draft, and get as many battleships and fighter jets out there as possible then we might stand a chance! No expense is too costly for the lives of NATIONSNAME’s sons and daughters!”
