Chapter 208: Coronation Ceremony and Shipbuilding Plans

While the shipbuilding experts were busy exploring Arthur's proposed strategic cruisers, Arthur himself was preparing for his coronation ceremony.

When Arthur became the Duke of Australasia, he did not have a coronation ceremony due to being far away from the British Empire, and also because the previous Duke of Arthur had recently been assassinated. Instead, he held a banquet with members of the royal family and Queen Victoria and made an announcement to the nation.

Now that he had become the King of Australasia and the first monarch of the country, it was necessary to hold a grand coronation ceremony that involved both the people of Australia and New Zealand.

There was good news that after more than three years of construction, Sydney Palace was finally ready for official use.

Arthur scheduled the coronation ceremony for October, specifically to hold the grand event at the new Sydney Palace.
