Arconian reforms of the military begin, starting with restructuring the military. The Marshal and Admiralty Courts are formalized and are given power to prosecute criminal activity within the military. As a result of intensive review, it is found that a good deal of corruption lied within the military, and as a result, many officers were court-marshalled. Positions are being filled with individuals who have shown a record of integrity within the military. Etiquette within the Arconian National Armed Forces, previously sloppy and variant, is reformed and codified.
The next reform is based on equipment, which has grown to be outdated and not standardized. The Arconian military is interested in the Conservatian rifle, rumored to be an improved model. The Arconian military sends word to Conservatia, wishing to have an explanation of the weapon and a demonstration. Minister of War Lord Jacques Lespérance wishes to land a contract, hoping to obtain the arms, whether permitted through contracted production or by purchase.
Training in maintaining and repairing weapons becomes mandatory and more intensive. All current active soldiers are given more rigorous courses and lessons on weapon maintenance. Additionally, two sub-branches of the military are created, Engineers, those highly educated in weaponry and engineering, and medical, those highly educated in medical practices. Women are permitted to enlist in the medical branches.
The final reform for this time is an improvement to training regimen, that has grown lax in the last decade. Soldiers are drilled more intensely. Officers are educated in military formations and supply management. A hierarchical command system is being experimented with in order to determine whether a strong chain of command is favorable over absolute command by highest officers present.
In addition, Minister of Agriculture and Industry, Sir Edward Guilles, makes a speech in front of parliament calling for the advancement of industry and transportation. Parliament agrees overwhelmingly and speeds a bill to improving said assets.
Côte Verte, which had begun as a moderate trading port had in only a few years grown to be twice its size just two years earlier. Businesses and industries have moved in and the port has expanded. The steamships that have developed years before had become truly favorable for their ability to navigate the long stretch of the Arligne, however, more and more businesses wish to bring the steamship to the ocean. Several businesses have grouped together in a race to create a reliable model before the other.
After travelling around the region to ascertain railroad standard measurements, Arcon gives the green light to railroad companies to begin creating networks throughout the nation. Demand for Kyrevian-Sonyong steel increases. The Eastern port city of Porte de l'Est begins to grow as trade through the area increases.
