Although preparations have been made for a nationwide tour, Arthur also needs to go through a meticulous preparation process before embarking on the journey.
After all, as a ruler of a country, one must settle domestic affairs before setting out, right?
Firstly, due to the half-year absence while accompanying Queen Mary, Arthur spent half a month processing all the tasks accumulated from the neglected government affairs. He also held a meeting with the Cabinet Government to review their progress.
He then arranged matters at the royal palace. Leaving Hunter Steward in charge and most of the royal guards and security forces remained at the palace.
The First Guards Infantry Division will be responsible for escorting Arthur on this trip, so there are enough guards and security forces left in the kingdom.
This tour will cover several regions of Australasia, starting from the capital Sydney, first taking the fleet to New Zealand, and commencing a half-month inspection.
