Capítulo 453: Chapter 361: The True Dominator of the Pacific Ocean

For the people of Australasia, 1913 was definitely a surprising year.

Apart from Arthur's announcement to expand the navy, Australasia also received many colonial territories in the Pacific from the Powers that year.

Indeed, in the last month of 1913, Australasia once again began its effort to receive the British and French Pacific colonial territories.

The reception of the Solomon Islands has been progressing smoothly so far, which has prompted Arthur to accelerate the reception of these colonies, in hopes of fully receiving the colonial territories of the Powers in the Pacific region before the outbreak of World War I.

For this colonial transfer, Arthur specially sent an entire division to the islands of the Pacific and dispatched the navy to patrol the waters.

On December 11, 1913, Australasia announced that it would rename British Fiji, which it took over from the United Kingdom, to the Australian Fiji Colony, with Georges Valerianos as its Governor.
