Challenging Fate
Prime Minister Omega looks onto the big pile of papers on his desk. The Union of Asia offered him a position, but Parliament voted it down, politely saying that they are Oceanic and therefore shouldn't be in an Asian Union. Somehow, the Japanese took this as an insult, and rudely demanded that no Aussie shall step onto Indonesia. Apparently, the two ambassadors started fighting each other about the geographical location of both Indonesia, Oceania and Polynesia.
"So, no conversation about Poland's geographical location, right? I'm getting tired of those Poland jokes", said Omega, talking to his Foreign Advisor. "No", the advisor, "but somehow race got into an issue, with the Japanese calling our ambassador a "Killing, Raping, Child Stealing White Imperialist". Omega spit out his cup of coffee (He preferred it over tea) in surprise. "Dear God, was he out of his mind?", asked Omega.
"Sadly, I think not, and I'll cover why in a 'sec", said the Advisor. Anyways, our Ambassador, who deserves a medal for not retaliating, referred to the Stolen Generation, and our apologies for it. The Japanese Ambassador started rambling again, but, again, in an act of pure courage, our guy politely excused himself and walked away".
"Well, this is going to go well with the Japs", said Omega, "but tell me why this guy is serious". The advisor sighed, played with her hair, and then said, "They're starting to invade China again". "My god! They're playing with an empire again!", yelled Omega. "Yes, and if they're going that route-". Omega interrupted, "Oh my god, Australia is going to be a target on a bulls-eye"!
The foreign advisor said, "This is not some sort of conspiracy theory. They're starting to stamp out liberties, and there's a huge revolt going on. They're being serious about this. If the other nations join the union and get the other nations to rally against us, we're dead. Luckily, said revolt will slow them down for a bit, but not too long".
Omega then said, "But whom would want to help us? Britain and South Africa are in total anarchy, if there is life there at all, Canada went communist, and wouldn't like a pro-royalist country, and America is divided internally". The advisor said, "Well, if our reports are correct, the USSR is sympathetic to our cause. If we assist them if a 2nd American Civil War breaks out, they might help us. Russia might also be interested, but more as a mutual struggle, not an actual friend".
"I'm not sure about Russia", said Omega. "Something about their leader tells me I won't get along good with him". The advisor then said, "Well, the King could focus on Russian relationships while you focus on the USSR's relationships. Even with the abolishment of Governor-General, and him presiding at Parliament directly, he still doesn't do much. And remember, De Gaulle never got along with Churchill, Roosevelt, or Stalin, but the other three still stuck with him".
"Now, that's it with the Japanese. No conclusive reports have been made of nations that are actually important". The woman started to walk out, but Omega stopped her. "Hey, you're the best presenter I've had as Prime Minister, what's your name?" "Julia. Julia Smith".
