บท 203: Chapter 203

Three years had passed since the end of the war that reshaped the world, and the year was now 1948. Under the visionary leadership of Emperor Alfonso, the Oriental Empire had ushered in an era of unprecedented peace and progress. 

One of the most significant advancements during this time was the introduction of metal containers, which revolutionized the shipping industry. Ports around the world scrambled to accommodate container ships, leading to a boom in global trade and economic growth. Major cities like Manila, Singapore, and Jakarta flourished as skyscrapers pierced the sky, redefining the urban landscape.

The luxuries once exclusive to the citizens of the Oriental Empire now spread far and wide. Shopping malls, automobiles, aviation – all became commonplace as the empire's culture and technology permeated every corner of the globe. In just three short years, the influence of the Oriental Empire had become undeniable, shaping the world in its image.
