Thanks.
And, there's actually a method to my madness with thie way blue landed. Initially, blue had control of the whole continent. An earth-shattering event enabled the other "nations" to split away from blue's control. So, the newer nations are still managing with the start-up of their new governments, while blue is too busy dealing with recovery to reign them back in. Make sense? I don't know. I thought it all up at about four in the morning.
