2. Maintain contracts and legal instruments with foreign polities whose exercise consists of the right to establish military forts/presence in their territory for the purpose of protecting supply lines and manufacturing interests leading up to and during, wartime.
- These may be structured as "insurance/subcription" payment plans for example, with regular payments of premiums, or some other peaceful agreement for mutual benefit.
- What such agreements really represent under the hood though, are a right to invade and secure security interests in those foreign polities. For this reason, such contracts should clearly define the assets and people/companies which are designated for protection in the contract.
- Such contracts may need to include terms to establish military presence near or in such polities during peacetime to ensure that if the need arises and utopia needs to exercise its claim (due to breach of contract), utopia can act quickly and decisively to establish control over said assets.

> [Apologia]: It is not unreasonable to ask that the military be vigilant and plan ahead for war and that it be aware of which other nations pose either distant, or clear and present threats to the persons and property of `WS`'s residents; so the contracts needed to protect procurement of such assets should be able to be well known in advance. Furthermore, the military branch has no budget limit, so it shouldn't be hard for them.
