Arrivals
The project of uniting the three main Himyari powers under Pan-Himyarism was something that Natalian politicians were striving for at least since the 1970s. Pan-Himyarism was used in Natalia first as a way of trying to neutralise the centrifugal forces inside the Federation with a show of continental unity. Of course, at that time, the rivalry and disputes between the Pelasgian and Azraqi Empires for the islets of Tephanon made that task impossible. Today, the geopolitics of the world changed. The war in Gallo-Germania has shown that as much as the markets were interdependent, warmongering is still a powerful force in international politics and the game of alliances turned proxy wars into full blown world wars. With the image of what happened in Occitania and in Trivodnia and the new menace appearing in Justosia, it is clear that the old days of squabbling must end and the three Himyari greats needed to united into an institution which would bring cooperation and stability.
The Belvedere International Airport was buzzing with activity. In the morning the delegations of the Azraqi and Pelasgian Empires would be arriving, all flights were either diverted to the smaller, John Reeve Airport or to the Jacaranda International Airport in Harton, or were delayed or outright cancelled. Everything was made to look as best as possible. The terminal was build to mimic the local building styles, a modernisation and transformation of the tribal architecture into a futuristic style which still kept the general native motifs and decorations. The white buildings were outright shining in the morning sun.
In those days, Camp Hill will be the world's most secure city. The Minister of Defence, Michael Botsile, together with the head of the Civil Protection, Sebastian Whitaker, have set up more than 500 snipers on the roofs of the city, 500 points of surveillance have been set up and planes from the bases in the Lower Natalia Republic were put on high alert.
The foreign delegations were awaited at the airport by Chief Minister Liam Savage and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ryan Mopantokobogo. The State President, Rufaro Mutasa, as the main representative of the Federation of the Natal will receive them at the Combs House, the palace of the Federal government, where the discussions will take place.
Everything was organised in such a way that there will be little to no waiting for the others. The Azraqi plane landed first and while the delegation was coming out of the plane to the applause of the crowd and the flocking of the journalists around them, the Pelasgian plane landed too, 10 minutes later. The Pan-Himyari summit was an important event that was heralded in the Natalian media in the last 35 years at least as the ultimate success of Himyarite diplomacy. Now, as it was finally happening, people flocked to see history being written and to see together the representatives of Natalia, Azraq and Pelasgia. Both delegations were received on the red carpet by Liam Savage and Ryan Mopantokobogo.
The Natalian, Pelasgian and Azraqi motorcades, each formed of around 10 luxurious Natalian made Hartnett sedans have left the airport and made way to the city itself. Camp Hill was standing on the slopes of the Southern Gran mountains, on the vale of the huge Natal River. That way, while the tropical heat was punishing most of the Lower Natalia Republic, the city enjoyed milder climate, as the river was cooling the air, while the mountains were stopping heat waves coming from the Golden Plateau and inland Himyar.
The delegates were accommodated in two 5 star hotels in the city, the Pelasgian at the Himyari Empress, and the Azraqi at the Sunbelt. They will be given a few hours to rest and prepare and then at noon they will be received by the rest of the Natalian delegation at the Combs House, where the conference will start.
