The newfound Triple Alliance jollied Makena and his advisors. Now was the time for cooperation, for economic success. Plans were drawn out for a joint Lateralian/Sithian project to the Meditern Sea (again, the sea bordering Sith Republic to the north). A message was sent to the leader of the Sith Republic.

To the Sith Republic

The Lateral Republic wishes to meet with delegates from the Sith Republic, concerning a joint project between our two nations. For years, shipping lines entering and leaving Abascalania have needed to cross the gigantic Elison Ocean, and out through two peninsulas. Our primary goal is to lessen the cost and difficulty of our trading lines with access to the Meditern Sea. If you are willing to discuss and negotiate such a project, we would be happy to meet with your officials. Minister of Transportation Kavi Ratnam and Minister of Foreign Affairs Kama Mahendra Savitr are ready to meet with Sithian delegates.

Signed,

Lord Kefilwe Makena

I really do not feel like painting another picture today, so I'm just going to have the two arrive at Sith Republic.

Kavi Ratnam and Kama Mahendra Savitr arrived at the meeting place, the Sithian's Department of Foreign Affairs. Although not specified, they believed they would meet with David Morrison. With heavy briefcases, the two rehearsed impromptu on the way to the meeting place.

David Morrison greeted them. He was standing with a tall caucasian man, who had a large Beard.

"Good Afternoon Gentlemen. I am David Morrison, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, this is Kyle James, the Minister of the Economy. What can we do for you?"

The two men introduced themselves. The stocky Ratnam, ever paranoid, made the first words outside the introduction:

"Shall we go inside? I do not feel safe uttering a word of our proposal outside."

Savitr simply rolled his eyes and scoffed, making his attitude known to his colleague. "Let's walk inside. We can explain on the way."

The two walked inside with Morrison and James. Savitr continued explaining as Ratnam gazed around the hall, confident there were spy cameras in every painting and statue. The company did not seem to acknowledge his behavior.

"As part of the Triple Alliance, it is within our duty to advance economically and technologically," began Savitr, "Therefore, we have a proposal, as clearly seen and stated. For years, the Republic has needed a quicker means of trading with its allies and neighbors. We have, unfortunately, been limited to the Great Ocean south of us, where turbulent hurricanes, sweeping whirlpools, and bombastic pirates threaten the safety of our men and ships. Simply put, the Lateral Republic wants access to the Meditern Sea to the north, and we believe the best way to access it is through your nation."

By now they had reached a meeting room and entered it. Once settled, Savitr continued. "We are proposing the construction of a port and an international highway. The port will serve the purpose of delivering and sending goods to the Lateral Republic. In addition, it also serves as a military harbor. The highway, leading from it, will stretch from the port through the Sith Republic to the Lateralian city of Mumbai. The highway is a medium between the port and the Republic, as well as an expressway for troops in times of war. Any questions so far?"

"If such a Deal were to go through, what would be in it for The Sith Republic?" Kyle James asked.

"A natural question," said Savitr, "Of course this is a massive port, since it is expected to hold both commercial and military flock. This port will be large because it will handle two nations' cargo. The Sith Republic will have access to the port without any expense. This project will also create jobs for your people, both in constructing and in maintaining it. Sithians will also have jobs building the highway and maintaining it as well."

David looked at Kyle.
"And there is the added bonus of having two new entryways into the country. Great for Immigration. My Thoughts go to how we will keep Illegal Immigrants from slipping through into either country? Would there be a Border Crossing Station with guards?"

"Makena has had a libertarian policy when it comes to immigration issues. If [border patrol] stays lowkey, people won't realize it's there, and word about how to get around it will not spread." Savitr said.

Ratnam finally spoke, coming to terms that he was being watched by the Sithians' surveillance system. "The Lateral Republic has never had a problem with illegal immigration, being surrounded by upscale, established nations like the Sith Republic. It would be quite rare for someone to illegally enter our nations. Both our people are quite happy with the status of the nations, and there is no cause for alarm."

Fearing these words would fall on doubtful ears, Savitr proposed a concession. "However," he began, "if immigration is a serious issue for you, we would be more than willing to build a border crossing at the divide between the Lateral and the Sith Republic."

THE PLAN!
