The Noctem Republic
As the council convenes its meeting the smiles of many of the council members can be seen as the had received news of successful taking of the island towards the west. They immediately plan their final expansionary plan, that would allow them to seize control over many global trade routes. Thus allowing for them to expand their income.
Immediately following the capture of the island a small band of 3,000 men is sent to the biggest of the chain of islands. Once there they would go to make contact with the local tribes/cities/villages, to establish a line of trade. The men would offer the tribe or nation a trade deal that would allow Noctem to build a small trade post on their island. (-2,000)
