Chapter 240: Five Years of Shipbuilding, Aiming for the Powers

The war was over, but there was still much work to be done in the aftermath of the war.

First, in accordance with the London Agreement, Australasia needed to withdraw its military from Portuguese India and the East Asian colonies, and to ensure the safety of all Portuguese citizens in these two regions.

Well, yes, the personal safety of the citizens.

As for the property of these Portuguese people, most of their previous factories, equipment, and other assets had long been carted away by Australasia, a fact well known to all nations.

And the more than a thousand Portuguese soldiers captured by Australasia were also transported to Portuguese India, waiting for the Portuguese to receive them.

Arthur made no claim for ransom for these people, after all, Australasia had made enough money in this war, and being too greedy would have been counterproductive since the war's pretext was to seek justice for the fishermen in the first place.
