The Eagle Rises in a new world

The White Star rises from the East

Holy Mirishial Empire, imperial capital Runepolis

Everyone knew about Mirishial... Every single person in the world knew that the Holy Mirishial Empire was the strongest country. They had become prosperous by themselves, without any help from other countries. Their level of advancement was so incredible that they used to be known as the "center of the world," which led to the empire's continent being named the Central World.

The Holy Mirishial Empire had:

-The world's most advanced magical technology

-A strong government that stabilized the country's foundations

-Vast territory and an excellent system for mass producing materials

-A superior education system

With all of these world-class advantages,compared to all the other countries in the civilized areas,and even compared to other superpowers,there was no doubt that Mirishial's national power far outstripped any other country's.There were ruins from the ancient sorcerous empire all over Mirishial. Investigating these ruins with the support of their advanced technology led them to develop their military in a very warped fashion, at least when compared to countries from Earth.

In the imperial capital Runepolis, within a room in the foreign affairs bureau building, two men were having a discussion.

"But... for the Papaldia Empire, the only superpower in the Third Civilization, to actually lose... Not only that, but to a country outside the civilized areas, some skinny strip of land... I still can't believe it," the head of Foreign Affairs Riage said. "Our fleet of magic ships could easily blow away something on the level of Papaldia's navy, but, aside from us, and considering the Third Civilization's technological level, Papaldia's military power should be far above any other nearby country's reach. This 'Russia' has captured my attention."

"Indeed! That's why, if you could, about this delegation..."

"Arneus, as the information director, I get that you like to go out and gather information, but we're the most powerful country in the world, you know? For us to be the ones sounding things out from our side, asking to negotiate and sending a delegation... And not only are they not a superpower, they're not even in the civilized areas!"

"Sir Riage, for all intents and purposes,Russia now is the superpower representative for the Third Civilization...no,for all the countries in the Great East.I believe they will earn superpower status soon.For the 11 country leadership conference,we should invite Russia in place of Papaldia.Under the guise of helping them prepare for their participation, we can send a delegation and just tack on preparations for opening diplomatic talks. How does that sound?"

"Hmm, if that's how we play it, the members of Parliament shouldn't raise a stink. Let's run with this plan for now and start laying the groundwork for it."

At a later date, the Holy Mirishial Empire approved of sending a diplomatic delegation to Russia.

Kingdom of Marl, outside the Third Civilization

"What?! Is this true?! If it is..."

"Yes; we were under extreme pressure from the Papaldia Empire to gift them our land, but, in their war against the country of Russia,they were so devastated that they ended up splitting into seventy-four countries in order to avoid complete destruction.They were essentially annihilated. Because of this, the empire no longer has the power to threaten us; our country is safe!"

In the Marl castle, during an audience with the king, one of the king's aides made this report. The king's posture and expression crumbled in great relief.
