In a shocking turn of events today Prime Minister Wales announced the annexation of a place called Montana. "This wild untamed land, will become a cornerstone in our Agriculturally based Industries. We will develop a food supply to help feed and foster growth in the world." said Prime Minister Wales in his mid-morning press conference. In typical interview fashion, Prime Minister Wales would not field questions from the Executive Press members. In Circus Ring Announcer style, the Prime Minister lay out a plan for the new territory.

"We plan to send in an advance team to assess the situation and make recommendations for development. We have the Engineering Firm of Lyman and Kite pouring over satellite data to assess the best routes for roads and locations for military establishments. A provincial capital of Gila will be built strategically in the center of the state. 31.59 billion dollars has already been allocated for these construction projects. I have personally talked to one of our industry leaders Beef on the Hoof and they have donated 5,000 head of seedstock cattle to be utilized to start our Agricultural Operations. In addition to these improvements the Mountain Divisions Hood, Elk Tooth, and Big Horn will be stationed in the new territory to provide security." Prime Minister Wales put down his megaphone and headed for the exit.

A reporter shouted a question as he stepped out the door, "How was this all possible sir?" In an uncharacteristic move Prime Minister Wales turned and winked with the comment, "It just is son, it just is. Why not put your tent stakes in the ground of some place no one else has? It makes perfect sense to me, now I must go!" and Prime Minister Wales rushed off to Joint Chiefs of Staff meeting.
