"But I speak Anitami too."

"Yes. And something else, which is confusing."

"I don't know what else it is. I didn't know I spoke Tapap till somebody spoke it at me."

"Well, maybe someone will speak the other language at you."

"Maybe."

"Did you like the Tapa book?"

"It was interesting. I got more like it about other countries but they are going to be delivered."

"Probably this afternoon! We are friends with most countries."

"That's good."

"Yes, it's very important."

"Are there ones we are not friends with?"

"There are ones we are neutral with. There isn't anyone we're currently near fighting with."

"Why are we neutral with some?"

"HIstory, mostly. We don't like Oahk very much."

"The book says they were evil."

"The Oahk Empire was not a good place. The country today is much better."

"How did it change?"

"Someone killed the Emperor and let all the countries he had conquered be independent again."

"Oh."

"In a democracy you can change things peacefully."

"I don't like people getting killed."

"It is not good when people get killed but with very bad people we often don't have a choice."

"Why couldn't they do any other things with him?"

"He still had lots of people supporting him who would have put him back in power if they could have. There would have been a civil war, instead of a coup, and lots and lots of people die in civil wars."

"Why didn't killing him cause a civil war?"
