1: The Calm Before the Storm

Coiot: I was going to do a narration for these slides since the website script requires some text to be present. It has been a few rough work days which left me no time... so enjoy this dumb AI generated slop instead.

For decades, the world has been at peace, but tensions simmer beneath the surface. Across the oceans, the islanders of Bora Bora and Singapore flourish, their navies dominating the seas. Meanwhile, Mogadishu thrives as a coastal power, its merchants growing wealthy through commerce and diplomacy

To the south, New Holland builds vast trade networks, while Ndongo establishes a mighty kingdom in the heart of the continent. The Khoshuts, nestled between giants, secretly form a defensive pact with Mogadishu. Trade agreements are signed, but both sides know that ink dries faster than trust.
