Prince Maximilian: The invasion to the other world is important but how about our resources especially ragnite and its growing scarcity
Prince Wilhelm: Says the illegitimate one and son of a concubine
Some began to laugh while Maximilian glare at his brother
General Von Kampf: He has a point we have limited resources due to the growing scarcity of ragnite. if we haven't signed the nonaggression pact with the federation the war will start again
General 3: but the other side has more resources that can be used as an alternative resource than ragnite but also we should invade Gallia to secure the ragnite supplies they are once part of the empire until those Gallian's dogs rebelled the imperial rule
some agree on general opinion

A 68th-year-old white-haired old man who's wearing a victorian era male attire for higher class. His Name Head Councilor Anthony Christopher
Head Councilor Christopher: Gentlemen I know we have a problem with the empire but we must address on growing scarcity of Ragnite
Ambassador of Assen: Despite our joint efforts to benefit the federation it's still not enough for the long run as we rely on ragnite too much. We need to find alternative resources we can't depend ragnite forever
The majority of members agreed on what the ambassador of assen said
Prime Minister of Wessel: Isn't Gallia plan to join the federation It could be beneficial for all of us
Some members in the federation agree on prime minister said
Head Councilor Christopher: Well we are negotiating with the Prime Minister of Gallia the problem is the Gallia constitution and the head of state which they want to be neutral and obviously we can't intervene in the internal affairs. I'm sure ambassador Townshend can handle this
President of the Republic of Francia: We can get some resources to our colonies some colonies are rich of ragnite
Deputy Foreign Secretary of UKE: but it will increase rebellion we can't risk on rising nationalist and independent movement in our colonies as we nearly survive from the Great War and I think the empire will willingly supply those rebels one way or another to destabilize our colonies and our country
Once again the debate continues on how to solve the scarcity including focusing resources on the colonies. But despite discussion, there is no agreement on the ragnite issue so they decided to continue this tomorrow. The next to discuss is the Empire

Secretary Hall: Are they going to invade Gallia?
Said by the United State of Vinland Secretary of State
Federation General: Possibly but there is another one according to our intelligence the Empire plan head to a site. their news agency said that two months ago it's a research site but I don't understand why they need a huge military for a research site our agents continue on gathering intelligence about this.
Everyone in the room is in uproar some say it's an imperial military base for superweapons others are a Massive Military site as they gonna used Gallia to bypass its defenses. The head Councilor raised his hand to signal to the delegation to silent
Head Councilor Christopher: I know some of you are worried about the empire but I suggest we should wait but we need to prepare in case the empire set an eye on us
Federation General: That's why we have plans to defeat the empire once the war was reignited
Secretary Hall: I have a bad feeling about this my country will send military equipment and provide logistical support but we will not participate when the war came
Head Councilor Christopher: So far the Empire still complies with our non-aggression treaty. But that doesn't mean we should let our guard down for now let them be. Any question?
All in the room didn't answer
Head councilor Christopher: Good we will continue tomorrow this meeting adjourned

This stunned the gallian royal court
Count Gassernal: Research site why they gather their army into mear research sites
Minister Pierlot: That is unknown so far besides saying an archeological site regardless there is a possibility of an invasion force since Gallia is rich with ragnite resources. We can delay thru diplomatic negotiation but it's a matter of time that the empire set an eye on us
Everyone is silent for awhile
Princess Cordelia: I'll admit that we want to remain neutral but we must strengthen our forces. Order the town's guard and the military on high alert tell the civilians on the border to prepare to evacuate once the invasion is imminent. Gentlemen, we must pray for Peace and neutrality but we must prepare for the worst. Gallia must be prepared and preserve our independence
Minister Pierlot: I agree with Your highness we must prepare the worst-case scenario our appeasement could work but we are delaying the inevitable if it is not today it could be tomorrow, if not tomorrow it could be next month or a year all I can say is that the Gallian must prepare so that we can preserve our nation our identity and our Independence
All the court agree Princess Cordelia look at her prime minister and he nod
Prime Minister Borg: Well that's all for now. This meeting is adjourned thank's for coming
Everyone bow to Her highness and left the meeting room as Princess return to her quarters

According to the legends, the portal once used by Valkyries to arrive in Europa to defeat the evil Darcsen who destroyed Europa. But since the valkyries race disappeared the portal disappeared until the empire discovered it. The empire studied until the portal somehow reactivate but the only small portion that can fit 3 persons they sent some scouts. Once the scouts return, they saw a whole new world since then the empire sends more scouts for documentation. To plan the invasion or expedition to another side of the gate, the empire establishes a Forward operating base not far from the hill. To Activate the gate, the empire used the "experiments" to power the gate with the help of the scholars who study for Valkyria ruins, and history about Valkyur finally, the Portal activate

The Emperor appointed him as the leader of the Imperial Expedition Army. He currently analyzing what looks like a tourist map from the other side of the gate with the detailed point of interest sadly there is no military site which finds him odd considering a large city with no military forces with the exception of militia forces providing law and order. his thoughts interrupted when Colonel arrives he salutes and Kozlov salute back

According to them the city, we going to invade not just an ordinary city but a capital city where the seat of government is I ordered to capture the city and its leaders so that we will use their city and the country for further expansion and accepting our demands. Also, their armed forces are nonother than a self-defense force so it will easily crush them but expect some resistance there is a rumor that they already achieve flight. May the Valkyrur be with you and grant victory against the foe"
His Imperial Majesty Emperor Ivan VII
After he read he has confidence just like in the old days but still he doesn't underestimate the enemy unlike some including his second command General Dirlewanger for the expedition. He approaches the stage and head to the podium for his speech for a total of 120,000 soldiers with 3000 tanks, Armoured Car, Half-track, and motorized vehicles,
General Kozlov: Soldiers of the empire today is the day that we are going to the other side of the gate the enemy. There Army is just a Self Defense Force and town's guard
Some began to whisper or even laugh because it will be an easy conquest
General Kozlov: but do not underestimate them they may be a defense force but they will still give them a fight but in the end, they will fall just like the rest of them. Today by the blessing of our Valkyur and to our Emperor, we will conquer the new territories. Today they will face the might of the empire. Long Live the Motherland! Long Live His Imperial Majesty the Emperor! and Long live our eternal empire!
All: Long live His Imperial Majesty Long live the Empire

The first is to enter the tanks follow by, Armoured Car, Half truck and motorized vehicles, and lastly, the artillery others will stay behind for reserve or for the second wave and so the invasion or the expedition to the other world began
" On March 1, 1935, the day the Empire cross to the new world the beginning of a war. A War will change not just the empire but to the whole Europa and their world"
