The situation in Europe was not important to Arthur; so long as there wasn't the outbreak of a massive war, whatever struggle for power Britain, France, Germany, and Russia engaged in wouldn't affect the international status and influence of Australasia.
Arthur's attention was focused on the current military industrial development of Australasia, or to be precise, the development of the now vitally important aircraft carriers.
Australasia's existing aircraft carrier design was known as the Giant-class aircraft carrier, which had been designed in 1916, over nine years ago.
More importantly, in these nine years, Australasia had welcomed the development of jet planes, and the existing aircraft carriers could no longer accommodate jet aircraft; the navy urgently needed a new aircraft carrier design to equip a large number of jet planes.
