Future Adventures of the Greater Bay Area
Alliance Primary School, Kowloon Tong, Chung, Cheuk Yiu Audrey - 8
In 2019, the people in Vatican City State thought that their country was not big enough.
They wanted PLENTY MORE! Despite the fact it was the smallest city, I mean country in the known
world, they were more determined than ever! So they hatched a plan. What was it, then? A surprise attack
on southern China! But unfortunately for them, word soon spread out and the government knew. Soon
southern China's government made some moves and demanded for a war base. But little did the people in
Vatican City State know, they were half as prepared as the people of southern China were ……
Meanwhile, a lot of residents in southern China complained about having to live in cramped and
small spaces. But after southern China Edge War Base also known as Greater Bay Area was built, they could
have a little more homes. I was one of them, too. Soon after some fellow residents with me and my family
moved in the new territory, the war began. But before we can get a move on with that, I have to tell you
the story before that. Since the GBA was not pure land, the government had to build it. The ground was a
steel bastion, so it was very strong. Then how did they get the materials? First, they asked South America,
but they refused to give materials for one billion. So they asked North America for materials for also one
billion, but unlike South America, they accepted the request, and sent the materials. Australia also heard and
gave steel for nothing. And anyway, they sent suggestions for building the homes underground so the people
would not be harmed.
Soon, the war base was finished and so were the homes. Then not long after the war began,
missiles were flying over our heads and barely missed our homes. We were absolutely frightened. From the
start, Vatican City State was strong, but was thrown in debt later. Some food was put on rationing, clothes,
books, even radiators were put on the list. At the end, we won! Because the government was so caring, they
cared for the harmed people near the state, and used the leftover money to help Antarctica. Both continents
were happy, the government even helped the poor people in the world too! With a huge amount of money
left over, it was put into the people’s bank accounts. Soon everyone was happy and they were living in an
area with more land and more jobs, but not the greedy people in Vatican City State.
