ULR has heeded pleas from citizens of the Empire of Trithersta and taken the islands of Hammbridge and Warchester. They faced no resistance as the government of Trithersta was neglecting the people, and had left before ULR entered their lands. ULR took the islands to provide new stability to the lands. President Hyngman announced a 100 million dollar aid package the government had already approved for rebuilding and reforming the two islands.
