Francisco Franco's simple message to the European Nations, announcing completion of the Italian-Franco-Spanish joint project to bridge the straits of Gibraltar, and close the Mediterranean off to the British once and for all, was received with ecstatic applause. Though Italy had formally received most of the British Empire in North Africa following the wartime closure of the straits (an elaborate diplomatic game had seen the two alleged neutrals, Vichy France and Spain, exchange North African territories to set up the blockade), Mussolini had to work with the other Mediterranean fascists to integrate their economies into Hitler's European superstate. The project was long delayed, and fraught with cost overruns and jurisdictional friction, but it served as a powerful symbol of united European fascism.Propaganda broadcast from the Plantoid Empire, an extraterrestrial empire that conquered Earth in 2241 AD.
