After the treaty between the Kingdom of Britannia and the Empire, the goods of the Empire began to enter the market of Britannia. There are many products that Britannia's people had never seen before. The most popular of these products were medicine, canned foods, and fishing gear. Also, they bought lots of fruits and vegetables. Which was very rare for the people of Britannia. Apples, grapes, tomatoes etc.
The Empire signed several treaties with Britannia in return. They got the right to explore and extract minerals from several islands of Britannia. Which is very beneficial for the Empire.

NODNAL
___________
NODNAL is the capital of Britannia Kingdom. It is the most populous city in Britannia Kingdom. Most of the buildings in the city are medieval and renaissance-style. The capital is divided into four districts. The Royal District, The Merchant District, The Residential District, and The Elite District.
Most important is the Royal District . It is the center of the capital, the Royal Palace and the administrative buildings of the kingdom located here. This district is full of magnificent architecture. This royal district serves as the political center, where important decisions are made and various royal ceremonies take place. Britannia Royal Academy is also located here. Where children of all high ranking people of Britannia Kingdom come to study.
Currently the whole capital is being arranged in various ways. Many traders, workers, musicians and others are gathering in the capital from far and wide. Since the engagement ceremony of the princess will be held in a few days. So the capital is being decorated on this occasion.

Britannia Kingdom's Royal palace
--------------------------------------------------------------
Princess Elina is sitting on her balcony. Beside him is a small table, cluttered with an array of books, some stacked precariously, others opened with pages fluttering in the wind.
There are dark spots in her eyes which indicate that she has not slept properly. As the princess sat idly, a 12-year-old boy ran up to her. He is Oriento Von Britannia. Elina's younger brother. His eyes are blue like the sea and his hair is white like their father who died 5 years ago.
"Big sis," Oriento's youthful voice carried a note of genuine worry, "You haven't been sleeping, have you?"
Elina turned to him, "Hmm... Oriento, it's nothing like that. I was just reading some books. But what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be at the academy right now?" Her voice was gentle, but the weariness seeped through.
Elina looked at the maid standing behind Oriento. Ami is Oriento's personal maid. She manages all the affairs of Oriento.
Ami politely replied seeing the princess looking at her. She stepped forward, bowing slightly, "I apologize, Princess. I tried to keep him at the academy, but he insisted on seeing you."
Elina's gaze softened as she looked at her brother. "Oriento, you shouldn't skip class. You need to focus on your studies."
"Ah! Big Sis, don't worry. I'm the top student in my class!" he proclaimed proudly, a childlike blend of innocence and ambition.
But his expression quickly shifted to one of concern. "But big sis, I heard you don't want to marry big brother Strom." His innocent eyes searched hers, filled with worry.
Elina felt a pang in her heart at his words. Because it's true that she was not completely agreeable to this marriage. But still she looked at her brother and said with a reassuring smile, but it never quite reached her eyes "Eh, Oriento, I look like this because I haven't slept properly. So my face seems Don't worry"
"Hmmm... of course it will," he replied, though his expression remained skeptical. "Big bro Strom is very intelligent. The swordsmanship he taught me is great! Even after he graduated from the Academy a few years ago, his popularity hasn't faded. He's so awesome! I'm really happy that you're going to marry him."
Elina also tries to smile involuntarily at her brother's expression. She felt a flicker of warmth at her brother's enthusiasm. "Of course, Oriento. But you should return to the academy now. Once I'm married, I'll have to leave the palace, and you'll be responsible for everything here. You are the future ruler of this country, and you must be strong."
"Of course, sis. I will be very strong," he replied, his youthful determination shining through. But then he hesitated, his brow furrowing in concern. "Um... Big sis... if you get married, can't I see you again?" His voice trembled slightly, the innocence of childhood.
Elina's heart ached at his question. She leaned down, enveloping him in a warm embrace, her voice soft and soothing. "Oriento, I will always be by your side. You can come and see me whenever you want. Nothing will change that."
"Ya! You are the best Big sis! I love you so much!" he exclaimed, his face lighting up with joy as he hugged her tightly.

Alberto leaned back in his ergonomic chair. He opens his System.
It's been over six months since Alberto built his empire. His country has made a lot of progress in these six months. They occupied the entire island and many smaller islands around it were also included in the empire. The empire now consists of five major cities as well as several smaller towns and villages.
However, they are currently lacking in manpower. As their territory has increased a lot but the number of citizens is very small. So Alberto decided to summon more citizens.
Huh! My country has become very big. I need more manpower now.
Alberto opens the citizen option in his system. He scrolls through the citizen summon options. There he saw citizens of many nationalities. A diverse array of nationalities flickered across the screen - Russians, Asians, South Asians, Americans, Arabians, Africans
Hmm... I can summon citizens of all these nationalities if I want. Great!
The northern part of the island is too cold I can summon the Russians to live there and the south east is a desert area So I think It is fine for Arabians to live there. It's very good. They will have no problem living in these environments and for other cities I can choose randomly.
Alberto opens his map and a map of his entire region floats in front of him. He then proceeded to summon the citizens according to the extent of the cities.
The System updated, its statistics flashing before his eyes:

As Alberto finished his work, a soft knock on the door startled him.
"Come in"
The door opened, revealing Elizabeth and Carl .
"Your Majesty," Elizabeth said, her voice steady and calm, "We are ready to depart."
