The Petarian Expedition and the Cristero Insurgency

[Grand Petaria]

On August 31, 2019, Sky Captain Andrea Dorian boarded his flagship Zeppelin, Il Colombo, with a dream: to discover exotic, far off nations in the Eastern Pacific Region or anywhere peaceful nations reside.

The Colombo was commissioned by Petarius Magnus himself, the Doge of Grand Petaria. The ship is loaded up with 300 pounds of silver bullion, books, magazines, and newspapers from Petaria, provisions for 15 prominent merchants, clergy, and state officials, and 40 crew, all of them lightly armed with Sig P220 for protection of the delegation and maintenance of order. Andrea also maintained a body guard of four Royal Guardsman armed with sabers and SIG SG550 rifles.

The delegation has speakers of the English, Spanish, and Italian tongues.

Grand Petarians are majority Protestants, following Reformed Valdesianism which combines elements of Calvinism and Lutheranism. It was once a Catholic nation and Catholics are now a minority.

Grand Petaria is a classical republic modeled after the early Venitian Republic. It is mostly landlocked, mountainous land with its capital, Petaria, seated on the coast of the Island of Amoria, inside a very large lake. Silver, copper, and coal mines are abundant, and staple crops are corn, potatoes, and rice.

Gregorio, the radio operator aboard the Colombo, knocked on the door of Captain Doria's quarters.

"Avanti," he replied in Italian and invited him in, "What news do you bring?"

"Capitano," said Gregorio, "We received a transmission from a city in the nation of Yuyencia. Their current president is Zsombor Szeles and they have agreed to receive our delegation."

"Bennissimo! La Sua Eccellenza sará molto contento! Wire the Foreign Minister to inform His Excellency, and inquire from the Yuyencians where we should land."

[Grand Petaria]

Before the Foreign Minister received the transmission, shocking news shook the city.

The Chief of Police in the Capital appeared on TV at a press conference to discuss the arrest of a prominent member of a secret religious group, the Cristero Insurgency. The member in question was a two-star general who was accused of plotting to assassinate the nation's leading Protestant Pastor, Guillermo Grammo.

The Chief began his address, "As you know, the Cristero Insurgents are Catholic extremists that want a return to state Catholicism. They have infiltrated government posts, some even became Reformed Valdesian pastors, pretending to be pious Protestants. These treacherous Papists are a scourge in our peaceful Republic, and we are all shocked that our trusted general—a nephew of the Doge himself!—would succumb to their distasteful doctrine."

Anti-Catholic sentiment grew in the Capital and the number of violent religious confrontations grew rapidly.

"This is Captain Andrea Dorian of the Grand Petarian Expedition. Please inform us, sir, of the name and location of your capital," said Captain Doria over the radio.

The transmission was cutoff. Yuyencia didn't reply, and the disappointed crew continued its journey. An hour later, they received a radio transmission with the details of the high profile arrest of General Arnoldo Benedetto and his conspiracy against the nation's religious leaders.

"The winds are blowing in unusual directions," said Captain Dorian to the Royal Guardsman. "We must keep an eye out for Cristeros among the passengers and crew. The timing could not be worse—Cristeros may wish sabotage our diplomatic mission."

[Munkcestrian Republic]

"Don't they have the internet in that country? Or even just maps?" asked Lord President George Fenwick upon hearing (from the Yuyencians) that the Petarians were sending out some sort of airship to 'discover' nations.

"Don't they have the internet in that country? Or even just maps?" asked Lord President George Fenwick upon hearing (from the Yuyencians) that the Petarians were sending out some sort of airship to 'discover' nations.

"Apparently," responds the Lord President's secretary, "Petaria's internet only extends across the nation's boundaries. The country is quite isolated from the other nation states. They lost contact with Europe for centuries in the 15th century, and only reestablished it in 1977. I know; it's very unusual."

Captain Andrea flipped through an old atlas and saw a reference to a nation called the Munkcestrian Republic. The entry had very little information about it except that its capital is Munkchester.

"Hmm. A promising point of contact?" he thought to himself. "Let's send some radio broadcasts in that direction..."

The Colombo's coordinates are rerouted to head towards Yanjing. The delegates all met at the dining car to celebrate that contact was made.

The chef prepared a special meal of roasted, lightly-seasoned llama heart with small roasted potatoes, asparagus, fried plaintains, and steamed rice.

After the reverend blessed the meal, Col. Tiburcio commented on the arrest of Gen. Benedetto Petaria. "Arrested for involvement in a Catholic extremist group? I don't buy it. There must be politics at play here!"

The subminister of the Foreign Ministry replied, "Well, we can only hope the nation we've made contact with doesn't have an authoritarian Catholic president to make things worse. But what are the odds of that?"

A few days later, the Colombo lands at Yanjing. They are greeted by Yuyencian diplomats and polluted air, as the city has factories on every corner. Also found on every corner are Catholic churches and billboards for President Zsombor Szelesi, that read, "God and Szelesi!" and "Join the army, Unite the world!"

Before disembarking, Captain Dorian whispers to the Foreign Subminister, "Perhaps, you spoke too soon..." One business magnate, however, saw the factory smokestacks, took a whiff of the polluted air and said, "I smell money!"

Captain Doria walks up to President Bai Long and bows. "Mr. President, we are honored by your invitation and grand reception. Allow me to introduce you to our delegation," he says and proceeds to present him to foreign Sub-minister Marsha Pineda, Col. Tiburcio Andino, and prominent delegates.

The dignitaries enter Ovation Hotel and Sub-minister Marsha exchanges political and historical brochures with President Bai. Captain Dorian gifts President Bai with a llama fur coat and a rare, antique Petarian silver coin.

Suddenly, a tall, somewhat plump business magnate interrupts the conversation, "Mr. President, I admire your country's commitment to industry—especially your fine luxury cars. I run Petaria's leading automobile company, Fesitrán Inc. Could I inspect one of your factories and talk trade?"

"Pick up trucks?" exclaims the business magnate, "This nation's got grit! Those will do nicely in our mountainous lands."

Just then, the Sub-minister Marsha are called to a side.

Kevin the radio operator looked scared and worked up. "Sub-minister," he whispered rather loudly, "There are anti-Protestant riots in the capital, and the golden statue of His Excellency in front of the Royal Museum of the Fatherland was graffitied by angry, college students."

The sub-minister replied, "Ah. Then, let's not mention the spiritual inclinations of our new friends to the press and this shouldn't trouble us." She paused before adding, "His Excellency has survived much worse. I'm sure our police force can handle it." But she didn't look so sure.

When the sub-minister returned, the Yuyencians had made an offer for shipping a small number of pick up trucks to test how well they worked.

Col. Tiburcio then asked, "President Bai, what does your military look like?"

"Perfecto," exclaims the Colonel, "I believe we could use the help of Yuyencian military advisors to help us suppress unrest."

"President Bai," interrupts Sub-minister Marsha, "we would be happy to build an embassy for your delegates, if you would reciprocate. We are also willing to waive customary visa restrictions for Yuyencian tourists and to maintain tariffs on cars imports. Does this arrangement sound agreeable to you?"

Yuyencian tourists start visiting Petaria, and Catholics from Petaria immigrate to Yuyencia for more religious liberty. Poor immigrants from Petaria find work in factories in Yuyencia. Yuyencian cars become the new trendy pick-up among mountain dwellers and rural workers.

Some of the religious unrest in Petaria's capital begins to die down, but the large number of Catholics leaving the country begin to concern Foreign Ministry officials.

The Congress holds debates about how to crack down on immigration.

The Prime Minister asks Yuyencia to increase its immigration security and stop letting so many immigrants remain illegally.
