After discovering that land doesn't produce money, the government is studying a revolutionary method: building industries.

Brazil advances into Chile and expands its territory. The map grows, the generals celebrate, and Congress remains 100% imperialist.

There's just one small problem:

Territory does not pay bills.

Conquering is relatively simple. What's difficult is transforming square kilometers into production, industry, and wealth.

Therefore, while our brave strategists debate which frontier to conquer tomorrow, economists are suggesting a dangerously revolutionary idea:

How about producing something?

The next step should be to transform expansion into development: strengthen production, build infrastructure, and industrialize the country. After all, a large Brazil looks good on the map, but a rich Brazil is much harder to invade.

And the future holds an even greater ambition: to prepare the country for the military and, eventually, nuclear arms race.

But calm down.

Before the atomic bomb, perhaps it would be wise to figure out how to pay for the factory that will build it.

The formula seems simple:

  • First we conquered territory.

  • Then we acquired wealth.

And only then do we ask who still has the nerve to mess with us.

Because an empire without industry is just a big map.

And unfortunately, a big map doesn't make money.
