And you know that no matter what happens… You can never leave. During the Cold War, the Soviet Union built entire cities in complete secrecy—sealed off from the outside world, erased from maps, and hidden behind layers of military control.

"Fun and Games in Paradise- Post-Putin Russia sometimes finds its interests align more closely with Western powers than since the 1990s. Mr. Halstead, a former diplomat, is well informed, and all his books are entertaining and interesting. As an Australian, the thought of China advancing its interests aggressively in Polynesia is unsettling. Despite official encouragement, Australian firms refuse to expand into Polynesia because it's too hard, leaving the field open for the Chinese, who are enterprising and industrious.
