Geneva, United Terran Headquarters, 20 December 2140, 09:00 am
Five days before Christmas and Twelve days before New Year, the United Terran leaders and nations' representatives held the yearly high-level conference to discuss the progress of United Terran conditions and the First Novus Project in the Fortisregnum Empire.
Secretary General Hugo Van Dijk opens the conference with an opening speech.
"Good morning, Ladies and Gentlemen. Last year, we called this conference the world conference. However, today, we only call it the United Terran Conference because we were transferred to this new world and united as one national entity called United Terran. During the six months after transferring, we experienced several impactful events in this new world. First, we got contact with the natives of this new world, similar to the Ancient Roman Empire, and they identified their nation as the Fortisregnum Empire. We established diplomatic relations with them and launched our First Novus Ordo Project by constructing modern infrastructure and modernizing their military. Their wise emperor was a trustworthy leader, and they agreed to become our first ally in this new world. Even though we had a good ally, we also suffered from incidents because of insurgents and native beasts attacking our people. Fortunately, our successful military operations and humanitarian approach reduce potential threats from internal sources such as insurgents, civil war, and public unrest. However, the potential external threat become a real problem for our people. To prevent the incident from happening because of the external threat, we propose this forum to discuss how to prevent and solve the external threat to United Terran. Please deliver your argument based on the data and a feasible approach. Now the conference of United Terran leaders is starting." Secretary General Hugo opened the conference as the leader of the conference.
"For the start speaker, please, Mr. Maximillian Hiedler, present the proposal from the United Terran and the progress of the First Novus Ordo Project in the Fortisregnum Empire." Hugo gave Maximillian Hiedler, Secretary of the United Terran government, the opportunity to present the future proposal and the progress of the First Novus Ordo Project.
"Thank you, Secretary General. We are facing potential threats to our existence in this world. One of the potential threats is the existence of magic that defied the law of physics. According to the report from the Department of Science and Technology (DST), magic could improve people's power, agility, and intelligence in the short term. This phenomenon potentially threatens our regular soldiers without special force training to fight them in hand-to-hand combat. Fortunately, our current military technology, such as rail and plasma, could overcome the magic regarding firepower. However, we did not have sufficient data from superpower and hyperpower nations with advanced magic that will potentially threaten our nation. Our researcher simulated that the existing advanced magic nation could release magic spells to control nature and defy the law of science. Based on the data from the magic academy in the Fortisregnum Empire, Archwizard from the superpower and hyperpower capable of casting 'World-Class Magic,' such as releasing hurricane/typhoon category 5, earthquakes with magnitude 9.0, Tsunamis more than 3 meters in height, huge fire meteor, massive sudden death and summoning the undead creatures. Even the legendary archwizard could release a legendary world magic capable of releasing a substance similar to a mini black hole capable of sucking everything. Even though this is the hypothesis, we must prepare the worst condition to mitigate this condition." Maximillian explains the potential threat from the magic that defied the law of nature, especially from the archwizards.
"Shitsurei shimasu (Excuse me for interrupting), Hiedler-Dono. Are you sure about that information? How is the reliability of the data? In my humble opinion, your explanation is similar to Chunibyo (Eighth-grade syndrome) from Anime and Manga in my country. Please elaborate more, Hiedler-Dono." Emperor Matsuhito, Emperor of Japan, interrupted Maximillian.
"Yes, you are right, Your Majesty. Initially, I thought this report was absurd because we did not have a similar magic phenomenon. However, after our researcher studied the records of magic in the magic academy of the Fortisregnum Empire, there is a possibility that magic controls and defies the law of nature's existence in this world." Professor Oliver Einstein is the head of the Department of Science and Technology.
"So, we have a problem with the advanced magic nations, especially their archwizards capable of casting 'world-class magic' that defies the law, right? What is your solution to this phenomenon, Professor Oliver?" Hugo asked Professor Oliver.
"First, we need to establish diplomatic relations with them. I hope Mrs. Martinez, Head of the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA), could elaborate more. However, we must first strengthen our security to prevent foreign intelligence activity in our nation. I hope Mr. Bond, Head of the International Secret Intelligence Agency (ISIA), can elaborate more. After we secure diplomatic relations, we can establish collaborations with our new Department of Magic Research and Technology (DMRT). I hope Mr. Tesla, as head of DMRT, could elaborate more. Also, we could exchange some outdated of our science technology with them. If we could have a good relationship and become their ally, we could minimize the potential of their archwizard." Professor Oliver explains his idea.
"That's a Good idea, Professor Oliver. However, that is only for preventive acts. We also need the protocol if they antagonize and declare war on us." Hugo responds to Professor Oliver's idea.
"May I speak, Secretary General? Based on our alien contact and defensive protocol, we must use pre-emptive strikes before they can release their 'world-class magic' to our nation. We could use orbital bombardment to their capital or magic base. Before that, I suggest we improve the quality and quantity of our spy satellite to detect the mana fluctuation. We could collaborate with the Fortisregnum Empire and our ally archwizards to integrate our science device with their magic device. Before enemy archwizards approached our territory, we could shoot them down or kill them with our plasma hypersonic missiles guided by integrated AI and mana detector devices. I know this is like science fiction, but we are currently in a world infested with magic. Professor Einstein and Professor Tesla, I hope you can lead your teams to improve our technology integrated with magic. Also, I heard there is a nation similar to us, the United States of Amarilon, right? Moreover, they are a hyperpower nation with magic technology. I ask the permission of the Secretary-General to send our diplomatic team of United Terran, which consists of ambassadors from us, to them. Thank you." President Graham Roosevelt of the United States of America gave his opinion about the protocol against enemy archwizards and the integration of magic into United Terran civil and military technology devices.
"Thank you for your suggestion, President Graham. Yes, I agree with you. We must do pre-emptive strikes before enemy forces invade our nation, including standard military and wizards. Previously, I was a scientific and logical person. However, after transferring to this world, I do not want my people to suffer because of a potential magic threat, so I acknowledge the existence of magic. Yes, we must adapt and integrate our science and technology with magic. If they could use 'world-class magic,' we could utilize their world magic principle to improve our technology, such as anti-gravity technology. If we successfully design and produce improvements in our space technology with anti-gravity technology, we could create spacecraft and space battleships. With this technology, we could explore the galaxy and start the galaxy exploration era in this world. Also, we could improve our civil and military technology with integrated magic and science technology. Yes, President Graham. We will open our nation after our defense and military preparation is completed." Hugo explains his argument.
"Secretary-General Dono, some of the people in my country claimed as Onmyoji (Yin and Yang Master) said that United Terran must acknowledge the existence of the magic and spirituality from our original world. They said there are two types of news: bad and good. After the transference phenomenon, the magic and spirituality of our world were amplified, and they could help us counter the magic of this native world. They said that the magic in this world is like yin and our spirituality is like yang, so our transfer to this world is inevitable, and we can balance the phenomenon in this world. This is the good news." Emperor Matsuhito explains that the spirituality from earth could help United Terrans against the magic in the new world.
"Onmyoji? Do you mean someone like a spiritual master, Your Majesty? If so, could you elaborate with them on how to counter the potential threat from native magics? Even though I am not religious and a scientific person, I want to acknowledge them, and please collaborate with them for the defense and safety of our nation and people. So, what is the bad news?" Hugo orders Emperor Matsuhito about Onmyoji.
"Yes, Secretary-General Dono. I will inform and collaborate with them on utilizing the ancient magic and spirituality from earth to help us counter the native magics. The bad news is they said, 'Our evil brothers and sisters will come. The sun will rise in the West of the world. Based on our Onmyoji and researcher, a catastrophic phenomenon similar to the apocalypse will arise from the West in this world. Another interpretation is a nation similar to Japan, but evil will come, and they will rise to become a threat to this world. " Emperor Matsuhito responds.
"Oh my God. Are you sure about the divination of your Onmyoji, your Majesty? Let us say, if it is true, so what will we do? If the first interpretation is correct, there will be natural catastrophes. Some religions say an apocalypse will happen when the sun rises from the West. Even though I am skeptical about religions, we must mitigate this. To mitigate this, I propose we will build and be ready to reactivate WWIII catastrophic bunkers across the United Terran. We also prepare if the second interpretation is correct. A nation similar to Japan but evil that becomes a threat to the world when we are included is catastrophic to us. I assumed they were similar or more advanced to us. We must fasten to speed up the improvement of our technology, especially for advanced space technology. When this phenomenon will occur, Your Majesty?
"Yes, Secretary General Dono. We must prepare for the incoming unknown catastrophic threats. Based on the divination, they did not know when the phenomenon would occur. However, they estimated that the phenomenon would appear in ten to twenty years." Emperor Matsuhito said about the estimated catastrophic phenomenon.
"Oh my God, the estimated time is short. We do not have much time to improve our technology, but we can do so as fast as we can. Professor Oliver and Professor Vladimir, please hasten the improvement of our technology, especially the integration of magic into our technology." Hugo orders Professor Oliver Einstein, Head of Science and Technology, and Professor Vladimir Tesla, Head of Magic Research and Technology.
"Yes, Secretary General. We will do as fast as possible to upgrade and integrate our technology with magic." Professor Oliver and Professor Vladimir respond to Hugo's orders.
" Thank you for your cooperation, Professor Oliver and Professor Vladimir. I hope we do not meet or fight a nation similar to Japan in the future, with the capability to produce and operate space battleships that can shoot wave motion guns from their space battleship. I fear they will threaten our existence if they have an imperial character. We must prepare and upgrade our space capability. I hope we can add our plasma orbital bombardment device and rod god through low-orbit and high-orbit satellites. Could you finish this project in ten years, Professor Oliver, Professor Tesla, and General Alexander?" Hugo asked
"Secretary-General, in the range of ten years, we could improve the capability and quantity of our plasma orbital bombardment device. However, the cost will be tremendously high because we must prepare the monstrous funds to construct, launch, and operate this plasma orbital bombardment device. We also need raw materials such as titanium, nanocarbon materials, tungsten, and polymers to create the material device. We also need Alumina and Silika compounds, polymers, and tungsten as plasma generator materials with tritium as the source for the fusi reactor to generate plasma. The need for rare earth is the most crucial because we lack this resource after the huge explosion during WWIII and the recovery era. This rare earth is used as material for advanced technology material in plasma orbital bombardment devices such as control, electrical components, and detectors. I suggest we explore the potential source in the neighboring nations after establishing a relationship with them." Professor Oliver explained the need to upgrade and add more Plasma Orbital Bombardment devices.
"I see. Yes, we need more funds to upgrade our technology and investment in the Fortisregnum Empire. I hope we can explore and exploit natural resources for our advanced weapons in the Fortisregnum Empire. We must search for alternative resources in foreign nations with several treaties, such as giving them modern 21st-century technology infrastructure and exploring and exploiting their natural resources. How about the estimated funding to construct more plasma orbital bombardment devices?" Hugo asked about the Capital Expenditure (Capex) to construct plasma orbital bombardment devices.
"It depends on what kind of plasma orbital bombardment device you want, Secretary-General. If you want a plasma device with a moderate temperature level like the ones we already have in the lunar base and low orbital satellites, we need at least $100 billion. Fortunately, our scientists and engineers successfully created and tested prototypes of high-plasma temperature-level devices. If we want to upgrade this to operate, we need at least $300 - 400 billion per device. Include for research, engineering, procurement, construction, and launching. We need at least 1000 plasma orbital orbital bombardment devices to cover 1/3 of this planet. " Professor Vladimir explains.
"Wow, that is a huge cost for one plasma. So we need $300 - 400 trillion to create 1000 plasma orbital devices that are ready only to cover 1/3 of this planet? Wow, that is monstrously expensive. It is nearly half of the total GDP of the United Terran. I think we will construct ten first, and if we succeed, we will improve to one hundred. Please, if all of you have another argument." Hugo thinks that the price is monstrous for building high-temperature plasma.
"Secretary-General. I think we only need to construct ten plasma orbital bombardment devices. Remember, we are a peaceful nation, not a warmongering nation that could initiate another World War on this planet. For ten devices, we will need $3 - 4 trillion; with the amount of this money, we could produce more fighters, bombers, aircraft carriers, and plasma missiles. We also need more money to invest in another nation. Please reevaluate again before we construct these apocalypse weapons, Secretary-General." Gibran Widodo, President of the Republic of Indonesia, said that United Terran could construct and develop another weapon better than constructing one hundred plasma orbital bombardments.
"President Gibran is right, Secretary General. We need to prioritize the development of investment in another nation so our people can join and feel the economic improvement. We need only construct ten plasma orbital bombardment devices. If the investment is successful and our total GDP increases, we could construct more plasma orbital bombardment devices." Antonio Marcos, President of the Republic of Phillippines, states that United Terran must focus on the development of investment in another nation rather than on militaristic weapons.
"Thank you for your argumentation, President Gibran and President Antonio. Yes, you are right. We need to focus more on investing in our technology in other nations. We will start voting on how much plasma orbital cannon we will build first." Hugo started voting for the development of a plasma orbital bombardment device
After the voting process, country leaders focused on investment and improving the quality of life of the United Terran people. They chose to construct only ten more orbital bombardment devices and kept the secret from the people of the United Terran and other nations in this world.
"All right. Another threat is from natural phenomena detected in the area, similar to the Chinese Empire, which defied the law of science. I think this has a correlation with the potential existence of cultivators, like in Chinese literature. Also, some fantasy cultivators, like the Jianghu or Murim, control their innate power to defy the law of nature or heaven. What do you think, President Yi Feng?" Hugo asked Mao Yi Feng, President of the Republic of China.
"I believe cultivators in Jianghu are only in fantasy literature, Secretary-General. However, because we have transferred to this new world infested with magic, I assume someone in our nation will be awakening their innate Ki or Chi, or we called it Qi, and be capable of releasing some magic. The finding of mythical beasts in the five great mountains also increased the spiritual Qi in the whole United Terran region, not only in China. Some people in my country also claim to be masters of pursuing the true Dao or path. They utilized the abundance of Qi in United Terran to train their spiritual power. I will collaborate with them on utilizing ancient Chinese magic to counter the native magics and prepare for the incoming unknown threat. However, I can not guarantee a good result because I am scientific and rational." President Mao responded to the potential of ancient Chinese magic.
"That is okay, President Yi Feng. I know all of us are scientific and rational, but we must do everything we can for our nation's defense and security for our people." Hugo argues about the strategy to protect the people of United Terran.
"Secretary General, aside from the incoming unknown threat, we also have the current threat for our people, which is native beasts and monsters. Because of the potential threat of native beasts and monsters, I suggest establishing the International Hunter Association of United Terran (IHAUT) to hunt the native beasts of this world that become potential threats to our nation. Our people, capable of fighting and utilizing weapons, can apply to become the hunters of IHAUT." Kim Ji Sun, President of the Republic of Korea, suggests that United Terran leaders establish the International Hunter Association to hunt the native beasts of this world that are infested in the area of United Terran.
"Interesting idea, President Ji Sun. Even though the incoming unknown threat is catastrophic, we cannot ignore the current threat from native beasts and monsters. I agree with your idea of hunting native beasts and monsters that could become potential threats to our people. However, we need to differentiate the objective between military personnel and civilians. I do not want our hunter to become the prey and increase the casualties." Hugo responds that he wants to prevent the casualties because of the hunting program.
"Rest assured, Secretary General. We could collaborate with the military to train the candidates of hunters before their mission to hunt the beasts and monsters." President Kim argues that military personnel will train the candidates to hunt.
"If the representative leaders of the country agree, I will permit the establishment of the International Hunter Association of United Terran (IHAUT). Remember this, ladies and gentlemen: I only permit the operation of IHAUT if it reduces the potential threat of monsters and native beasts. If the casualties and the cost are higher than the potential threat, I will evaluate and freeze the IHAUT and let the military handle the beasts and monsters' extermination." Hugo argues that he will permit the establishment of IHAUT, but if it causes more negative impact, he will freeze it.
After the voting session, the result is that the majority of representative leaders agreed to the establishment of IHAUT. For the preparation and establishment process of IHAUT, Secretary-General Hugo appointed President Kim Ji Sun as the person in charge (PIC). For the purpose of the experiment, President Kim Ji Sun invited Emperor Matsuhito and President Mao Yi Feng to establish the first three branches in Korea, Japan, and China. Because the initiator is President Kim Ji Sun, Secretary General Hugo agreed that the headquarters of IHAUT will be in Seoul, Republic of Korea. In the future, the rivalry and competition from the branches in Korea, Japan, and China will cause several internal conflicts between the three countries, but we will save it for the future.
For readers' information, in this alternative timeline of the United Terran government, North Korea and South Korea have already unified to become the Republic of Korea. People's Republic of China (PRC) and Taiwan also unified to become the Republic of China. Even though Japan is still in the Republic, as the nation's symbol, Secretary General Hugo invited Emperor Matsuhito, not Japan's Prime Minister.
"Please continue your presentation, Maximillian," Hugo ordered Maximillian to continue.
"Thank you, Secretary General, Emperor Matsuhito, President Graham Roosevelt, and President Mao Yi Feng, for your ideas about magic. Thank you to President Gibran Widodo and President Antonio Marcos for the plasma orbital bombardment devices. Also, thank you, President Kim Ji Sun, for your ideas about establishing IHAUT to protect our people from native beasts and monsters. Because President Kim Ji Sun suggests prevention acts against monsters and beasts, I will present our defense protocol against native beasts and monsters next. Because of the fishing ship incident and the threat of giant sea creatures, the Navy suggests improving the production of Cruisers and destroyers for escort and screening missions. Admiral Takashi Yamamoto suggests we produce sixty cruisers and one hundred destroyers to cover our water areas. Please, for the representative of leaders to give the arguments." Maximillian Hiedler presented that the United Terran Navy needed to produce more cruisers and destroyers to protect United Terran waters areas.
"Secretary Hiedler, I agreed with you about producing more cruisers and destroyers. However, we need the actual data of our current ships before estimating the construction of ships." George IX, King of England, argued that the United Terran Government must disclose the actual ship's data.
"We have fourteen Nexus-class Super Nuclear Aircraft Carriers, Forty-two Guardian-Class Nuclear Cruiser, Seventy Tempest-Class Nuclear Destroyer, and Fifty-six Boomer-Class Super Nuclear Submarine. Based on the formation of the Carrier Strike Group, the number of ships is one aircraft carrier, three cruisers, five destroyers, and four super submarines. Some admirals also suggest constructing battleships or battlecruisers to escort the aircraft carriers and show our power to the world for gunboat diplomacy. However, to construct and maintain battleships or battlecruisers, we need high costs, and the effectiveness of battleships or battlecruisers is low compared to aircraft carriers and cruisers." Maximillian explains the number of ships from the United Terran and a proposal to construct a battleship.
"You are right, Secretary Hiedler. Battleship effectiveness is low compared to aircraft carriers, but we could utilize battleships as a show of force, which could carry heavier armament than cruisers. We could mount heavy rail cannons guided with AI and satellites for primary weapons and plasma missiles for secondary weapons. We only construct limited battleships to reduce the maintenance cost, and I suggest we construct four or five battleships. If this forum agrees with this, on behalf of the United Kingdom, I, George IX, will participate in construction and be ready to fund the maintenance cost." King George IX said.
King George IX is a navy man. Before he ascended to the throne, he was a captain of a Guardian-Class Cruiser in the United Terran Navy. Because of the tradition, British Royal family members often join the military for several reasons, including tradition, a sense of duty, and a desire to serve their country. Because the United Kingdom became a United Terran member as one Unity, they served as the United Terran military branch. After his father, King George VIII, passed away, he was recalled from the United Terran Navy to become the King of the United Kingdom.
"Thank you for your suggestion, King George IX. I agree with you about constructing limited battleships to show our force and support the carrier strike group with heavy weapons. However, we need other representatives of the country's response." Hugo said.
"Secretary-General, as one of the former nations have the last battleship, we have an opinion. Initially, I would disagree with this suggestion because maintaining a battleship requires tremendous costs and less effectiveness than an aircraft carrier. However, because this nation was infested with magic and I assumed we would face nations similar to the Nazi Reich, the Soviet Union, and my alternative version of the country, I supported constructing battleships to show the enemy our power alongside aircraft carriers." President Graham supported the construction of Battleships.
"Secretary General, even though we only have battleships two hundred years ago in WWII, we will also support the suggestion to construct battleships. We need more heavy weapons to prepare against the incoming unknown threat of evil brothers and sisters of the alternative version of my country. We also help the construction and funding of the maintenance of battleships." Emperor Matsuhito said he supported the construction of battleships to prepare for the incoming unknown threat.
"Secretary-General, as President Roosevelt, said that we will face threat nations similar to Nazi Reich and Soviet Union, I approved to construct of battleships for our heavy power in the seas. I am afraid this nation, similar to Nazi Reich, will conduct fascism and tyranny in their nation. I do not want the humanity tragedy because fascism will happen again in this world, and we must end it." Freidrich Adenauer, Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, said he wanted to prevent the tragedy of humanity because of fascism.
"Secretary-General, I also support the construction of battleship to improve our heavy weapons against arrogant nations in this world. One of the ancient nations of this world brave enough to assassinate our ambassador and insult my country, France, as a barbaric nation. Fortunately, the assassination mission failed. If it succeeds, I will propose declaring war and capturing their crown prince. France will support the construction and maintenance of the battleships." Phillipe de Gaulle, President of the Republic of France, said that the assassination of Lucien and the insult from Crown Prince Hasdrubal Barca of the Novacara Empire ignited public anger in France.
"Thank you, King George XI, President Graham, Emperor Matsuhito, Chancellor Freidrich, and President Phillipe for supporting the construction of battleships. Now, I will start the vote." Hugo starting the vote for Battleship construction.
The great country in the United Terran (the United States of America, the Republic of Japan, the Federal Republic of Germany, the United Kingdom, and the Republic of France) supports the funding for the construction and maintenance of battleships and other representatives support the project. To honor the support of five countries, Secretary General Hugo gave the future five battleships names: UTS Iowa, UTS Yamato, UTS Bismarck, UTS Vanguard, and UTS Richelieu. These five names are similar to the names of each country's battleships during World War II.
"For the specification armament, our scientists and engineers propose to mount three 51 cm rail cannons in the front, center, and rear of battleships as primary weapons. We will mount three Vertical Launcher Systems (VLS) to launch one heavy plasma surface-to-surface missile, one medium plasma surface-to-surface missile, and one plasma surface-to-air plasma missile. We also mount four dual-purpose 20.3 cm rail guns and four 35 mm rail CIWS turrets as secondary weapons in the battleship's rear, center, and front. We will use our latest new cold fusion reactor as the energy source for safety and sustainability during the operation in the sea. Because of the advanced cold fusion reactor, this beast's maximum speed is 40 knots. This beast could carry two SH-80 Sea-Emperor helicopters for recon and against enemy submarines." Maximillian explains the data from Navy engineers and scientists about the specifications of battleships.
"Thank you for your information, Maximillian. Overall, I trust the specifications of the battleship proposed by our best engineers and scientists. However, how much is the cost to construct and maintain this battleship? How long could we construct this battleship if we agree on the cost?" Hugo asks the Maximillian.
"Based on the calculation, we need at least $50 billion to $75 billion for each battleship for construction cost. This cost is due to the use of cutting-edge technology and the current advanced stealth system for this battleship to improve its camouflage and stealth. We need at least $100 million to $150 million annually for maintenance costs. If we used our advanced dockyard without interrupting the production of cruisers and destroyers, estimated construction, trial, and commissioning, we would need 4 to 5 years to construct each battleship." Maximillian explained and estimated the construction cost, maintenance cost, and construction time.

"How about 2 to 3 years? Could it be feasible with the construction of battleships as our main priority?" King George XI asked Maximillian.
"It is feasible to temporarily stop the production of cruisers and destroyers and focus only on constructing battleships. However, this will impact our screening project, especially in escorting our shipment for export to another nation." Maximillian response.
"I think it is enough to use our current screening ships for export and import shipment escort. One month ago, we successfully mounted Rail CIWS to our Coast Guard ships to protect our shipment and fishing ships around our water areas. So, we could focus on military ships to escort ships exporting, importing, and exterminating sea beasts and monsters. However, we cannot operate our carrier strike group simultaneously because it lacks screening ships." Admiral Yamamoto Takashi, Chief of Staff of the Navy, said that the current military is enough to escort exporting and importing shipments and exterminate sea beasts and monsters.
"Thank you for your information, Admiral Takashi. Rest assured, Admiral Takashi, we will maintain peace while preparing for war. How about the current formation for defense and escorting for our ally, Admiral Takashi?" Hugo asked Admiral Takashi.
"For now, only the Carrier Strike Group (CSG) of Enterprise is ready for the defense of our ally, Fortisregnum Empire, while CSG Shinano, CSG Mahabarata, CSG Amazon, and CSG Andes are doing for the extermination of native monsters and beasts at West Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, and East Pacific Ocean. However, the current West Pacific Ocean is the east of our nation, and the East Pacific Ocean is the West of our nation. The other screening ships from the remaining CSG can be used to escort the mission of export and import ships." Admiral Takashi's response.
"Thank you for the information, Admiral Takashi. Based on the current agreement, I ordered the construction of five battleships with our advanced dockyards. After the battleship construction is finished, we will continue screening ship construction. Maximillian, please give the orders for the International Consortium for Navy Military Companies (ICNMC) to start construction of battleships next month, January 2141. Please coordinate with Sari and finance from the USA, UK, Germany, Japan, and France for construction cost." Hugo ordered Maximillian to inform ICNMC to start the construction of battleships next month.
"Yes, Secretary-General. I will coordinate with ICNMC, Mrs. Mulyani, and Finances of USA, UK, Germany, Japan, and France." Maximillian responds.
"Please continue your reports, Maximillian," Hugo orders Maximillian to continue his report.
"Secretary-General, currently, we only have 5,000 satellites active as spy satellites to cover United Terran areas with the capability to spy 100,000 km2 for each satellite. To cover the total surface area of this planet with 1,610 million km2, we need approximately more than 16,100 spy satellites to cover all surfaces of this planet 24/7 because they continuously orbit this planet. We only focus on our area with the limited spy in other nations because of their orbit on the planet." Maximillian reports about the current condition of the spy satellite.
"I see. How much is this spy satellite's price, and how long could we produce and launch these spy satellites?" Hugo asks Maximillian.
"Based on our scientists and engineers, the estimated price of construction and launch of one spy satellite is $500 million to $750 million. So, to cover up to 16,600 spy satellites, we need at least $8.12 trillion. Based on our calculation, we need 50 to 60 years to cover this planet with 16,600 satellites." Maximillian said the cost and the time needed to construct and launch the satellites to cover this planet.
"We do not need to cover this planet with our satellite, and we could collaborate with potential allies of these nations such as the United States Amarilon and the People Republic of Uroslav. If they reject our proposal, we could launch 1000 satellites first with $600 billion to improve our spies to gather information in this world. Even though it cannot cover the whole planet, our satellites will get the information when they orbit above their nations." Hugo argues that because the satellites orbit the planet, they could gain information when the satellites orbit above the target area.
"I think the biggest priority is our advanced radar and satellite jamming technology to shroud our secret technology and weapons. The hyperpower nations of this planet have satellites to monitor us. We must improve our stealth and radar/satellite jamming technology to cover our area and military vehicles from foreign nations." Roberto da Silva, President of the Republic of Brazil, said that United Terran's priority is to improve its stealth and radar/satellite jamming technology.
"President Roberto is correct, and we need to improve the stealth and radar/satellite jamming technology, especially in our strategic military base. Professor Oliver, how about the current progress of our stealth and radar/satellite technology?" Hugo asked Professor Oliver Einstein.
"Secretary-General, currently, our researchers are trying to apply picomaterial with pico technology to improve the stealth and camouflage of our aircraft, small navy vessels, and land vessels. We target our 8th-fighter generation and will use this applied picomaterial to improve their stealth. We will apply picomaterial advantages to send electromagnetic interference to enemy radar and satellites for radar and satellite jamming technology. We could use cyber attacks to hack foreign satellites after capturing their signal and frequency." Professor Oliver's response.
"Thank you, Professor Oliver, for progressing our stealth and jamming technology. I hope the application of picomaterial with pico technology will be used as our standard material for military and civil purposes." Hugo hopes that the application of picotechnology will be the new standard technology for the United Terran civil and military purposes.
"Wei Ming, how about the progress of the Novus Ordo project in the Fortisregnum Empire?" Hugo asks Zhuge Wei Ming, Head of the Department of Public Works and Transport, about the Novus Ordo Project
"Secretary-General, the progress of the First Novus Ordo Project in the Fortisregnum Empire is smooth without resistance and problem. The International Consortium of Civil Construction (ICCC) workers successfully constructed concrete roads in the inner wall of Aeterna City in one month. Currently, they are starting to construct public facilities such as modern Universities, modern schools, modern hospitals, modern airports, modern stations, and modern wastewater treatments outside the walls of Aeterna City. They also started constructing modern railroads from the station in the inner wall to the modern stations outside the inner wall." Zhuge Wei Ming's report.
"How about the progress of modernization of old Aeterna Port and new Aeterna Port?" Hugo asks Wei Ming again.
"The progress of modernization of Old Aeterna Port is slow because we need to use the current old port to embark and transfer our construction material, vehicles, and other equipment. Then, the worker only used 21st-century heavy construction equipment, which would reduce effectiveness. However, the construction of the new Aeterna Port is surprisingly fast because of the advanced 22nd-century autonomous heavy construction equipment. The progress of the new Aeterna Port is 40%, and we estimate that we could start to operate the new port next year. Thanks to International Special Force (ISF) and International Secret Intelligence Agency (ISIA) protection, we could prevent sabotage from foreign operatives." Wei Ming reports on the current progress of the old and new Aeterna Port.
"Mr. Zhuge, when is the infrastructure ready for us to export our product to the Fortisregnum Empire?" Michael Trudeau, President of Canada, asked Wei Ming about exporting the United Terran product to the Fortisregnum Empire.
"We targeted the infrastructure for export to be ready in the next three months for the area around Aeterna City with a radius of 100 km based on the modern concrete roads. For the whole Fortisregnum Empire, we estimated that it would take around two years to cover the public roads with concrete roads. However, if the parameter only sends and distributes the export goods in Aeterna City, we could export them tomorrow." Wei Ming respond
"How about the public facilities in the Fortisregnum Empire? We know that they are still in the age of the Ancient Roman Empire. I mean, when are the modern public facilities finished?" President Michael asked again.
"If you said the modern public facilities around Aeterna City, we need 6 – 7 years to construct all modern facilities. However, we need 30 – 40 years for the Fortisregnum Empire, similar to 21st-century Italy." Wei Ming responded.
"So, our workers, diplomats, merchants, and expatriates are living with Ancient Roman Empire-age technology?" President Michael asked again.
"Rest assured, President Trudeau. Even though they are in the Ancient Roman Empire age, surprisingly, their hygiene and sanitation are good. Their foods are exotic and delicious. Their people are humble and friendly. Their building's architecture is classical, similar to the buildings from the Roman Empire. However, you will see enslaved people around the Fortisregnum Empire." Oda Haruki, Head of the Department of Culture, describes the social condition of the Fortisregnum Empire.
"What, enslaved people? I know they are similar to the Roman Empire Age, but to know slaves exist in this world will have a significant impact on our people to interact with them." Immanuel Mussolini was the President of the Republic of Italy and Luigi Mussolini's younger brother.
"Rest assured, President Mussolini. In the new year, Emperor Aurelius declared that the slave policy in the Fortisregnum Empire should be abolished and banned. I will present there as the representative team leader of United Terran. Maybe our first contact with another national representative will be there." Maximillian Hiedler.
"Secretary Hiedler, Mr. Zhuge, said that we would modernize the Fortisregnum Empire to be similar to 21st-century Italy. If true, how can we preserve their historic buildings and sites?" President Immanuel asked about the preserver's historical buildings and sites. Much of the ancient Roman Empire's legacy was bombed during WWII and WWIII, so the current Italian government wants to preserve and learn about the historic buildings and sites of the Fortisregnum Empire because of its similarity with the Ancient Roman Empire.
"Let me answer, President Mussolini. Our experts of the Roman Empire already proposed the Preserving and Learning Act to Emperor Aurelius, and he permitted our researchers to study their heritage. They also would export exotic animals that are already extinct in our era, such as barbary lions. I think you must send your ministry of culture members to Fortisregnum Empire to execute the Preserving and Learning Act with our experts." Haruki responded to President Immanuel.
"Thank you for your information, Mr. Oda. We will send our ministry of culture members to the Fortisregnum Empire." President Immanuel said.
"Secretary-General, our drill instructor reported that the Fortisregnum Empire needs the modernized Scutum version. If you agree, we could use our nanomaterials to produce a modernized version of Scutum. They also want us to export modernized kevlar armor for their new military standard. I suggest exporting modernized Scutum and Kevlar armor reinforced with nanomaterial composite to increase the hardness and power reliability." General Alexander said that Fortisregnum Empire Legions asked United Terran to export the modernized version of Scutum and modernized armor for legionnaires.
"All right, I will approve it as long as we can produce and sell it. How is progress being made in training elite legions of the Fortisregnum Empire?" Hugo approved the request for a modernized version of Scutum and modernized Kevlar armor. He also asked about the progress of the legions of the Fortisregnum Empire.
"Surprisingly, their learning progress is fast, thanks to their enhanced magic memory and body. They are already finishing their infantry weapons. I will show the video of their training." General Alexander shows the video of Maximus and his legions training with Colonel Ermey.
In the video, Maximus and his legions are training with modern weapons. They learn to operate modernized STG 44, Gewehr 43, MG42, MP 40, and P38 pistols, GM6 Lynx and Panzerfaust 3.
As the video continues, Maximus and his legions demonstrate remarkable proficiency with modernized weaponry. Their movements are precise, showcasing seamless coordination between legionnares.
Colonel Ermey's voice echoes over the training ground, providing guidance and encouragement as Maximus and his legions execute complex drills with ease. The rhythmic sound of gunfire fills the air, punctuated by the metallic clinks of reloading and the occasional shout of command.
Maximus stands at the forefront, exuding a commanding presence as he leads his legions through various scenarios. His strategic acumen is evident as he directs his legions with calculated precision, adapting seamlessly to changing circumstances.
The legions move with a fluidity born of rigorous training, and their movements are honed to perfection through countless hours of practice. Each maneuver is executed with a level of proficiency that speaks volumes of their dedication and discipline.
As the video draws closer, General Alexander turns to Hugo with a satisfied smile. "As you can see, Secretary-General, the legions of the Fortisregnum Empire are more than capable of handling modernized weaponry. With the modernized Scutum and kevlar armor reinforced with nanomaterial added to their arsenal, they will be a formidable force indeed." General Alexander reports.
Then, the following video showed a bizarre adaptive tactic of Roman Testudo with modernized weapons. Maximus and his legions do the Testudo formation while carrying pistols, assault rifles/submachine guns, and semi-automatic rifles. The video then showed the first layer of Testudo carrying pistols while holding Scutum shield, the second layer carrying assault rifles or submachine guns, and the third layer carrying semi-automatic rifles.
When the first layers are opened, the first layer legion is crouched, holding its shield and the crouched legions to protect it. The second layer also crouched when ready to aim their assault rifles and submachine guns. Then, the second and third-layer legions enhanced their skill with magic to improve their power and increase accuracy and precision. The legions at the second and third layer shoot their assault rifle, submachine guns, and semi-automatic rifles to the enemies.
"What are the bizarre tactics they used? They used their shield from the first layer to cover their lower body while the second and third layers shot their weapons to the enemy. This tactic may be effective against ancient military doctrines with swords, arrows, spears, and shields. However, this tactic is ineffective against modern military doctrines with tanks, drones, and artilleries." Gibran Widodo said that Maximus's and his legions' tactics were only effective against ancient military tactics, not modern ones.
"Rest Assured, President Widodo. They also learn how to counter modern military tactics." General Alexander responds to President Gibran's arguments.
Then, Maximus and his legions formed three line formations while they ready their assault or semi-automatic rifles. Then, the first line shoots their gun until their magazines are empty. After emptying magazines, the first-line legions return to the rear formation, and the second-line legions move forward to fill the first line, and the third-line legions fill the second line. While the first line reloads their magazines in the rear formation, the second line legions fire their weapons until they are emptying their magazines. After the magazines are empty, the second-line legions return to the rear formation to reload their magazines, while third-line legions move forward to the front, and the first-line legions fill the third lines. Next, the third-line legions shoot their weapons until their magazines are empty. Then, the third-line legions return to the rear formation, the shooting formation returns to the initial formation, while the first-line legions are in the front formation. They used this kind of formation until they ran out of ammunition.
"Hey, how does this firing formation resemble Oda Nobunaga tactics in Nagashino no Tatakai (Battle of Nagashino)? But with modern rifles, not matchlock." Emperor Matsuhito is surprised after seeing the formation Maximus and his legions used.
"You are right, Your Majesty. Maximus and his legions improve the myth tactics of Oda Nobunaga with assault and semi-automatic rifles." General Alexander's response.
"Myth? What do you mean, General Eisenhower? Please elaborate and inform me." Emperor Matsuhito asked General Alexander.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Based on the latest military research, research on the Battle of Nagashino progressed dramatically with the publication of numerous new case findings and new interpretations. This has overturned the common belief that Oda Nobunaga overwhelmed the Takeda forces with his new battle strategy. Takeda Katsuyori, who is said to have suffered a heavy defeat due to a reckless charge by his cavalry, is being re-evaluated. Takeda Katsuyori also held the matchlock gun at the time but had lower than the allied force (Oda-Tokugawa) because of logistics issues. The main reason is that Takeda Katsuyori underestimated the power of the Oda forces." General Alexander said about the false information that Oda Nobunaga used 3000 matchlock guns to annihilate Takeda forces. [1]
"Are you sure about that? So, was the information about Oda Nobunaga using 3000 matchlock guns to annihilate Takeda forces false?" Emperor Matsuhito was shocked by the false information.
"General Eisenhower is correct, Your Majesty. We used the information of Oda Nobunaga, who used 3000 matchlock guns in the school history books to promote students' innovative ideas to adapt to the progress of technology." Haruki explains to Emperor Matsuhito.
"I see. Thank you for your information, Mr. Oda." Emperor Matsuhito said.
The video then showed Maximus and his legions learning and training using M777 Howitzers. They also learn to use technology to calculate the target and firing section.
"Oh my God, now they can also operate modern artillery? Will they become our threat in the future?" President Njaka Mandela was the president of South Africa.
"Rest assured, President Mandela. They are our ally and bumper in this world. Even though they turn hostile against us, we could destroy them with our 22nd-century technology." General Alexander said.
"But they will become a threat to our people in their Empire, right? I think they also have a war hawk faction to initiate war against neighbor nations." Miguel Camacho, President of the Republic of Mexico, said the potential misuse of modern weapons of the Fortisregnum Empire to declare war against neighboring countries.
"Rest assured, President Miguel. We already signed a treaty with them to use modern weapons only for defense purposes, not offensive. If they use modern weapons in the offensive without our approval, we will embargo them, ban them from importing our product, and cancel all economic projects. In the worst case, we could liberate them to capture the war hawk faction." Hugo explains that the United Terran government had already signed a treaty for the Fortisregnum Empire, which only used modern weapons for defensive purposes.
"So, what is our strategy for opening our diplomatic relations with other foreign nations, Secretary General? We need to prepare our nation before opening diplomatic relations. I suggest we strengthen our network inside and outside our nation. We must strengthen ISIA to counter intelligence foreign operatives in the immigration, potential safehouse, and foreign embassy in our nation. From the outside, we could utilize the free slaves as our native operatives to blend with foreign peoples. As for the spy satellites we previously discussed, I think we not only construct 1000, but we need to construct at least 2500 first to obtain real-time data. We will support the fund for constructing and launching the satellites to the low planet orbit (LPO)." Vladimir Stalin, President of the Republic of Russia, said. As the former ISIA agent from the Russian Branch and friend of William Bond, Head of the International Secret Intelligence Agency (ISIA), he knows the potential threat of foreign operatives, so he encouraged to strengthen the operatives networks of ISIA in internal United Terran and in the foreign nations.
"Thank you for your suggestion, President Vladimir. Yes, you are right. We will strengthen our ISIA networking before opening our nation to other nations in this world. I do not want another incident that causes the loss of our people life happen again in the future. We will open to all nations. If they are friendly and humble, we will support them, and if they have unique traits, we will propose to become our allies. We will produce antique technology and export it to our allies, just like we do in the Fortisregnum Empire. However, we hesitate to open diplomatic relations with them if they are hostile and insulting us. If they threaten our people, I do not hesitate to declare war on them to protect our people. Isabel, I ordered you to prepare diplomat teams to open our relationship with other nations." Hugo Responded about the policies for diplomatic relations and ordered Isabel García Martínez, Head of the Department of Foreign Affairs.
"Yes, Secretary General. We will prepare the plan to open diplomatic relationships with other nations. Next month, we will send our diplomatic team to the Novacara Empire to open a diplomatic relationship with them. In February, we will also send a diplomatic team to the Dawlat Al-nur Caliphate, resembling the Abbasid caliphate. The next nation is the Tianlong Empire, resembling the Ming Dynasty in March." Isabel responds to Hugo's order.
"Thank you, Isabel. I wait for your good news." Hugo said.
"Secretary General, how about the free slaves in our nation? How do you utilize these free slaves? I hope they will not be a burden to us." Anil Erdoğan, President of the Republic of Türkiye, is concerned that the free slaves will become a burden to the United Terran.
"Rest assured, President Anil. First, we will train them to improve their skills in operating 21st-century technology. If we find potential people with high intelligence and unique traits, we could give them a chance to continue their education in our universities and give them our citizenship. Then, for normal free slaves, we will return them to the Fortisregnum Empire as cheap laborers while our people become the leaders of our industries." Hugo responds to President Anil's concern.
"You said our people will become the leaders of our industries in the Fortisregnum Empire. What can we do to protect our people in the Fortisregnum Empire?" President Anil asked again.
"We will place several International Police (Interpol) collaborate with Fortisregnum Empire elite legions to protect our people. We also sent agents to capture foreign operatives who tried to capture our people to gain information. William, please report the counterintelligence operation in the Fortisregnum Empire." Hugo orders William Bond.
"Thank you, Secretary General. Until 22 December 2140, we successfully captured and killed one operative from the Novacara Empire, twenty-seven operatives from Imperio Estelar, thirty operatives from the Angles Empire, forty-five from Weltenkraft Reich, sixty-six from the People Republic of Uroslav, and seventy from the United States of Amarilon. A total of 239 operatives and local agents were killed and captured from superpower and hyperpower nations." William Bond reported the counterintelligence operation in the Fortisregnum Empire.
"Wow, that is so many operatives you got. What kind of information did you get from them?" Arthur Curtin, Prime Minister of the Republic of Australia.
"We got various information from the foreign operatives, Prime Minister Curtin. Imperio Estelar is preparing its military to declare holy war against the Dawlat Al-nur Caliphate, similar to a crusade in our world. Currently, they prepare bioweapons such as majestic dragons, giant firebirds, basilisks, and other beasts as their war animals. Angles Empire and Weltenkraft Reich are in the Cold War and preparing their military, especially Weltenkraft Reich preparing their air force and Navy to defeat the strong Navy and air force of Angles Empire. The People's Republic of Uroslav (PRU) and the United States of Amarilon also strengthened their proxy in the Cold War. PRU helped Emperio Estelar with the holy war, and the USA helped the Angles Empire against the Weltenkraft Reich. Only time and events such as Powderkeg can lead to a world war in this world." William describes the summary of pieces of information.
"Thank you for your information, William. We must carefully assess the possibility of conflict before we open a diplomatic relationship, especially with aggressive nations such as Imperio Estelar, Weltenkraft Reich, and PRU. Remember that we must show our power so that foreign nations respect us. We will use big stick diplomacy, 'speak softly and carry a big stick.' We did not want a war but would prepare if they threatened us. William interrogates the captured operatives about superweapons such as nuclear missiles, intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM), magic weapons similar to nuclear, world-class magic, bioweapons, and the possibility of orbital bombardment cannons." Hugo said that United Terran would use Gunboat or Big Stick diplomacy for diplomatic relationships and ordered William to get information about superweapons in this world.
"Yes, Secretary General. We will interrogate the captured operatives about this world's superweapons." William responds.
"Ingrid, how about the vaccination programs of the Fortisregnum Empire people?" Hugo asks Ingrid Johansson, Head of the Department of Health.
"Secretary-General, currently we produce and develop several vaccines, including MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella), Tdap (Tetanus, diphtheria, and whooping cough), chickenpox, smallpox, Hepatitis (A, B), HPV (Human papillomavirus), Influenza-Corona virus for adults. For infants and children, we produce Polio, Rotavirus, Hepatitis A and B, Diphtheria, MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella), Pneumococcal, Hib (Haemophilus influenzae type b), RSV Antibody, and chickenpox." Ingrid reported about the vaccination program.
"Mrs. Johansson, when will these vaccine programs be launched and given to the Fortisregnum Empire? I hope we did not make the same mistake as the Spanish and Portuguese conquistadors, who spread the diseases in the new land to the native American inhabitants." King Ferdinand X, King of Spain, asked about the timeline of vaccination programs.
"For the people of Aeterna City, we will launch the first batch next month and coordinate with the Minister of Health of Fortisregnum Empire. If there is no problem, the vaccination program in Aeterna City will finish in early March. To improve it, we will ask Emperor Aurelius to declare an Imperial Decree for his people, especially in Aeterna City, to get vaccinated. We will prioritize the vaccination for infants and children. We plan to finish the vaccination program for the entire Fortisregnum Empire in 6 - 8 years. However, we will fasten the vaccination program if the modern hospital is already constructed." Ingrid reports on the vaccination program's planning.
"How about vaccination against native diseases? Do you and your team already research the diseases that become endemic or pandemic in our nations?" Immanuel Schneider, President of the Swiss Confederation, on potential diseases from the native world.
"Unfortunately, we did not know the native diseases that could become epidemics and pandemics in our nations. Our researcher currently tests the environment and blood samples from every native person, especially from the foreign operatives captured by ISIA. The diplomats, workers, and soldiers who contact the natives must care for two to three weeks under strict control to know the potential diseases. Currently, we focused on preventive acts and banning all unauthorized persons aboard overseas." Ingrid reports.
"Thank you, Ingrid, for your report. I want you to prepare medical teams to go on duty in the Fortisregnum Empire, especially to conduct vaccination programs and monitor the health of our people." Hugo ordered Ingrid.
"Yes, Secretary-General. I have already prepared medical teams for the first batch of vaccination programs. They are under training at our International Medical Research Center (IMRC) and have received minimal training in self-defense from UT ISF." Ingrid report.
"Good. I will await your good news. Annapurna, how about our food production and preservation?" Hugo asked Annapurna Sarasvati, Head of the Department of Agriculture.
"Secretary-General, our food production is a bit halted after transference and the banning of shipment because native beasts and monsters impact the transfer of agriculture needs such as fertilizer, plant seeds, harvest and post-harvest equipment, and preservation equipment. These phenomena impact the prices of food in the entire United Terran, which has increased more than before transference. However, after the shipments continued and there was a successful harvest in various areas, the price of food decreased." Annapurna reports about the condition of food.
"How about the condition of our land after the transference process, Mrs.Sarasvati?" Nguyễn Chí Minh, President of the Republic of Vietnam.
"Fortunately, after the transference, the land in the entire area of United Terran is more fertile than Earth. The composition of nitrogen, phosphor, and Kalium (NPK) and macronutrients is greater than that of Earth. Even the current Arctic and Antarctica soil is more fertile than the Earth." Annapurna reports about the soil and land condition.
"What? How? Are Arctic and Antarctica more fertile?" Chí Minh asked Annapurna again.
"I do not know. However, one of our eccentric researchers suggests the hypothesis that this world has magic, and this defying law of nature impacts its biogeochemical conditions. We need to do more research about the land and soil of this world. Based on the soil of the Fortisregnum Empire, they had more fertile soil and land, better than Italy, France, Spain, and Portugal. They also had more fish and biodiversity than our Mediterranean Sea." Annapurna responded.
"Thank you for your report, Annapurna. I hope you and your teams will work hard to search and uncover the mystery of this world in agriculture and sea." Hugo orders Annapurna.
"Yes, Secretary-General. We will do our best." Annapurna Response.
"The last but not least issue is how long we postpone the world election, especially the United Terran secretary general election. I do not want to extend my period because it violates the United Terran Constitution." Hugo asked about the postponement of the election.
"Secretary General, you only violate the constitution at regular times. However, we are now in a crisis threatening our existence in this new world. We must focus on the strategy to improve our people's lives and protect them from internal and external threats. We did not have time and chance to fight among ourselves, and we had to focus on the unknown incoming threat." Khrisna Gandhi, President of the Republic of India, said that United Terran could postpone the election during a crisis.
"President Gandhi is right, Secretary General. You are highly popular with the people who trust you as their leader. In a crisis time, we need a savior to protect the people and lead them to pass the crisis. If you want, you can see your electability. We will postpone the election if your electability and popularity exceed 80%. However, we will hold an election next year if your electability is less than 50%." Sharif Muhammad bin Abdullah, President of the Republic of Arabia, said that if Hugo's popularity is high, they will postpone the election and vice versa.
"I agree with President Muhammad. If Secretary General Hugo's electability and popularity are more than 80%, we could postpone for five years or one period. If the electability is less than 50%, I think we will hold an election two years from now or 2142." Juan Ortiz, President of the Republic of Argentina, said that if Hugo's popularity and electability are high, they will postpone for five years or one period.
"All right, ladies and gentlemen. I will be silent about this issue, and please vote on what is the best option for the election." Hugo said.
After checking Hugo's popularity and electability, they found that he is 83.5% popular and electable. The country's representatives postponed the election until the condition of United Terran was stable or until five years after Hugo became the Secretary General of United Terran.
"All right, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for your suggestions and solutions regarding current issues and potential threats to the United Terran. We will disclose the result of this discussion to the public. We will also improve industrial capacity and prepare the military for future threats. We could design future strategic policies for our people. I hope peace will last long, and we can prosper in this new world." Hugo's closing speech.
After lengthy discussions, the future strategic discussion of United Terran leaders finally finished at the high-level conference.
