The 1st, 2nd, and 5th Orbital Expansion Fleet rested right out of the sights of the lands.

"Launch and Deploy all meausres!" Commanded the Bridge Capiton. As if the fleet was waiting, amphibious ships, transport aircraft, and landing craft flew from decks to the lands inbetween Praetonia and Sharina. Their goal was to expand as much as they could, and then lay good relations.

A total of 2 million troops were to be sent, with only 100,000 landing troops currently set. This land was also to be colonized by paid-off citizens.

Construction companies had already contracted oplots of land.

The Truitti Land Expansion Forces had finally hit their marks, 390 miles inland. They had secured the area in hopes that the Truitti companies and colonists would come early and make their claims perminent.

A large paratrooper division was to fly in and be dropped just a little further west to insure a head strong on the next week's expansion plans to seal off the penninsula and hopefully purchase the Sharinean territory as they had changed to the far north.

OOC: Do you have a map? Because I would like to see it before I start my expansion plans.

I was hoping to take most of the penninsula down here with military forces and argecultural corporations wishing to make a living out of the island of Dugahh (an island I RP with being the only lead argecultural center in Truitt).

This is part of my plan to lower some city populations by paying people to move here and get my dependacy on forgien foods lowered.

I am also planning on buying Sharina's claims since the borders have moved northward.

IC:

The forces fully stopped at the Praetonian and Sharinean borders. On the other end they were working frantically to stretch out and cover the entire of the shoreline to make it hard for landing troops of forgien armies to claim their nieghboring lands.

The first group of settlers, workers, and farmers had arrived at the now make-shift marvy force base New Emeraldia. Their lands were granted by the Osea Truitti Federal Argeculture and Expansion Department.

Each normal farmer recived 1800 acres to plant, grow, and sell what they wanted on their plantations.

A city was being built which would be the size of Boston. It was on the border of the new Truitti claims and Western Sharina. It was called Sharport City, and would be plotted as a future port city.

Fishing teams had already arrived with hunters to provide self-sufficant food resources so fly-in-supplies would not be needed.

Only a week had passed, and the territory's population, minus the militarymen, was set at a stunning 35,000 and growing a hundred or more a day.

OOC: AHH! That was the territory I was going to take just now!
Oh well. You don't think you would be willing to sell the bottom portion, would you?

OOC: Nope. I am planning, if other nations help provide for citizens in New Emeraldia, to have good diplomatic relations and possably be given a small plot of land for a military base.

I wouldn't mind helping you claim some land at the end of the penninsula. This way I get the penninsula, and you get a good ally and some land.

Like? lol

OOC: Thanks, but I would like to take the land myself. No offense, really. Taking over is just something I've always felt you need to do alone. Thank you for the idea for that area, though.

OOC: I would suggest going for the penninsula (if you want to call it that) near TRALM. That should be promising expansion wise.

Hope to see you on the battlefield (on a better note) or in the diplomacy hall.

A whole fleet-sized pack of ships, civilian painted and tagged, came and litterly barraged the coasts. Hundreds of eager ventures hit the lands like tiny ants. Many promises came.

"Come out to this land and at least 1600 acres is waiting for you!"
This was promising to the farmers who had small farms who could barely make ends meet. It was promised to bring in at least half the population of Dugahh, 2.3 million.

"Settle in at least 50 acres for a year and you will have a tax-free life for five years."
The tax rate is at 95%, and this would bring in a total of at least 1 million people, mainly low middle-class citizens.

"Come here by any means and raise the Osea Truitt Flag. Doing so will make you an admediate citizen!"
This was estimated to bring only 20,000 people from poor countries, mainly those in Africa, the mainland continent to Truitt's east.

"Bringing in more than you can handle and giving to your neighbors in such a land will give you a Medal of Graditude."
The Medal of Graditude is a medal used when Dugahh and Windsong were not populated and it is an honor to have such a thing. Truitti education is poisoned to make those think that, anyways. This was estimated to bring in about 450,000 people.

Besides that, it would take a lot more to get more citizens to move in, even as Sharport City, New Emeraldia City, and Jewitton grew over night and was being built for more than it had.

The push had gone on for days now. Military forces have been pushing on and on in the former Native-held lands inbetween the Osean advance.

After militarymen had secured possitions, citizens, mainly farmers and merchants, poored into the coastal areas in an effort to stake the largest claims they could possably make.

The islands were now the Osean State of Metallica (OOC: Gotta love the name) and would be set as a totally different nation in its own, as with the Osean Government's ruling style.

Total Population of Colony: 70 million (12 million being Marvy Force Personale)
Armed Forces Based in Metallica: 12 Osean Forces and ~.5 Million Militia
Exports: Sugar, Marijuanna, Alcoholic Beverages, Exotic Fruits, Fish, Cattle, Goat (Meats).
Imports: Petrolium and Raw Materials (Steel, Copper, etc).

The expansion onto the next island, by just Metalese forces, was planned for the next year once the economy stabled out without Osean influence.
