Question, Insaanistan - what are your forces on Sardinia?

Meaning? What sort of ships are there (doesn't even have to be specific classes), what are the fortifications (AShMs or bunkers with machine guns or coastal artillery in the style of the 19th century?), such things?

I believe I can help here. His ships are of corvette, frigate, destroyer types, and maybe diesel-electric powered subs (by maybe I mean perhaps he has deployed them there). The fortifications might be land-based anti-ship missiles batteries.

Long range cruise missiles is a very fricken expensive way of blowing up tanks. Do it the Turkish way instead and use the cruise missiles on generals and oil terminals.

Spain is theoretically under Insaani's control, but in reality it's under my military occupation. And I'm about to boot Insaanistan from Iberia. We need a united Spain btw.

Spain is about to declare independence. Catalunya (Catalonia) and Busq (Basque) will refuse to join it. Portugal will join Spain in the revolt.

Okay, so questions:
1. Is Spain communist? Is it also Muslim, or has it remained Catholic?
2. Why are Navarra, Catalonia and Granada opposing independence?
3. When and why did Italy become such a communist stronghold, and why has it remained so despite 60 years of colonisation? Why aren’t there democratic or monarchist rebels trying to fight for Italy’s sovereignty, besides the Social Welfare Agency?
4. How does Insaanistan have a GDP surpassed only by the USA yet it’s still threatened by Boko Haram and other groups, which a country as economically powerful as Insaanistan and with 3 million active duty soldiers, should’ve eliminated long ago?
5. What’s the demographics in the Iberian peninsula?

I unironically support dividing Iberia into Crusader States era nations. Same with Italy tbh, "Papal States/Rome", "Two Sicilies" and "Italy" is even more based than united Italy. Of course I am not going to pursue these goals in character at this time because uh. Why would I?

It would be out of the ordinary to pursue that policy, but it’s pretty based regardless.

5. What’s the demographics in the Iberian peninsula?

1. Spain is not Communist. Granada (IRL Andalusia) is about 50% percent Muslim, but the rest is still majority Catholic.
2. They all were already Semi-Autonomous and did not want to be included as part of Spain when the land was divided. Catalonia is divided as to whether it should fight for Insaanistan or fight for independence.
3. Italy started being Communist when the Insaanis took over, as the Soviet Union hoped it (especially the poorer south) would rise up against Insaanistan, which was an ally of the West. When Mustafa banned Communism when he first took office, that only made the movement grow, and they attempted a Communist revolt. There’s about to be a non-Communist Italian state declared.
4. Terrorism is an ideology, so it never can be fully eradicated. Boko Haram fighters still remained bu Insaani military presence made sure they couldn’t do anything. Will the military now mainly focused in Sierra Leone, Italy, and coastal North Africa, they have an opportunity to regroup.
5. Iberia is mostly White Spaniard and White Portuguese, with a more and more Arab-Berbers and black Africans the farther south you go in in Spain, as well as decent amounts in Madrid, Lisbon and Barcelona. Nearly all the Muslims are in Granada, which takes up modern day Andalusia, Spain.
