Many citizens of Bay City look in fear
at the map. We can see a new continent emerge between Sansara and
Jeoget. With that there will be a direct connection between the two
continents. Officials have stated that there is no reason to worry or
to take precautionary measures. There is no threat coming from
Jeogeot and the chances of something bad happening is extremely low.

As a purely precautionary measure the Sansara
home guard has deployed defensive measures at the borders between
Sansara and the new continent, and between Sansara and Bay City.
Besides that, unknown defences are deployed at various places but
officials did not reveal what those are and where.
When Bay City became a successful city,
with factories and infrastructure many citizens were living in
poverty. Going from day to day without a regular income squatting in
sandboxes, parks and sewers.
When Jeogeot was discovered there was a
program to relocate the poor and the occasional criminal to colonise
Jeogeot. The people were elated with that opportunity and they went
there with high hopes.
They unfortunately discovered that the
lands were poor, agriculture was nearly impossible. There was no
capital and economy to sustain any manufacturing. Jeogeot remained a
poor continent for many years.
Occasional visits from Jeogeot
colonials did not always go well. There were raids of colonials on
the East side of Bay City. The civil defences of Bay City were always
able to push them back and the colonials were send back to Jeogeot.
It is suggested that there is active
smuggling between Jeogeot and the wealthier parts of the world. Also
some claim that criminal activities in Bay City are orchestrated by
the colonials.
The Jeogeot gulf harbours an immense
naval force and there are plenty of combat airfields around the gulf.
Jeogeot colonials like to fight with each other and are well trained
in
combat.
There is no evidence that Jeogeot
colonials pose any direct threat to our Fair City and our way of
life. Our culture would be enriched, the workforce is much needed in
our factories.
In the near future a direct passage
will be possible. Trade opportunities would increase and wealth could
improve. Tourism could boom.
Time will tell if the Jeogeot colonials
pose any thread to our way of living. We can rely on our defences to
protect us if needed. New raids from the Jeogeot colonials are
unlikely in these modern times. A good and peaceful passage is in
both our interests.

There is no need to prepare for the
worst. Stockpile bread and milk, cans of beans and corned beef. Clean
up our life shelter, fill the water tanks with fresh water.
Bay City is far away enough not to get
hit by a tsunami when the new continent is connected.
So please stay calm and act normal.
