Chapter 869: Australasia, Declaration of War!

On June 10th, 1936, after a night of lengthy discussions between Arthur and ambassadors from the United Kingdom and France, Australasia finally declared war on Germany and Italy the following day.

This was absolutely a bolt from the blue for both Germany and Italy. According to the original world rankings, the Axis Powers would now be directly challenging the three strongest powers of the world, and the British and the French would have an extremely powerful logistical support force.

At noon that day, when Arthur faced an interview with the European media, he addressed the question posed by the European media: why would Australasia, located far away in Oceania, interfere in Europe's war?

Arthur answered, "I do not consider this to be Europe's war. Look at the countries and regions involved in the war; they are spread across Europe, North America, and Africa. This is another global war that spans the world.
