Where there are differences between political bodies, the options are:
* Negotiate to resolve them via treaties, etc.
* Coerce via other means - usually loops back to the first bullet once sufficient force has been applied(Yeah, I know you were being sarcastic, but the economy IS in good shape)
This is a critical cycle that must be preserved!
