The Samshto Report; Who does Dovani look to, as other continents have someone to look to?
----------------------------
December 7th, 5730
----------------------------
With every continent, there exists a definitive state that others look towards. States that define the regional or even continental narrative. Majatra for example, has Wrnuke and Istalia. Keris has Egelion, Makon has Hutori, Seleya has Kalistan and Valruzia. These are states that can adequately project power for their own interests, within the continent they inhabit, whether it be economically, culturally or militarily. So, this begs the question; who inhabits this role in Dovani? In the past, it was Lourenne but ever since Lourenne withdrew from Dovani, this role was increasingly filed by foreign states, whether intentionally or not. After all, with no domestic Dovani state filling this role, why bother trying to create this state from the ground up when you can go to the west or other continents for economic aid and military aid. 

However, this narrative has been challenged in recent years as Pan-Dovanism has encouraged more reliance within Dovani. Despite some disagreements between strains of Pan-Dovanism and whether Dovani should embrace Continental Nationalism or simply promote more cooperation, there was what can be considered, hysteria over foreign influence in Dovani. Fortunately, in recent years, this has died down heavily. Despite this, Dovani still lacks a state to fill that role. This is where the Samshto Report comes into play. Heavily inspired by the Pelkyi Report from the 5660s, a group of foreign policy analysts met in the city of Samshto to draft their report and present it to the wider People's Committee of Foreign Affairs.

The Samshto Report argues that currently, Dovani has not had a domestic nation holding the capacity to project power and safeguard their interests in a wider, non regional state, since Lourenne. There are several states that may have the capacity to project power, but only in a limited, regional capacity on their own. There is no definitive country in Dovani that can adequately project power and project their influence across the entire continent. Therefore, the solution is simple. A Dovanian country must assume this role, otherwise Dovani will continue to look towards other continents for support. 

Make no mistake, this report is not advocating for total Continental Nationalism and for severing all ties with other continents. That is simply economically suicidal. Dovani must have a state that exists to support other countries, militarily and economically, and safeguard Dovani. And the Samshto Report argues that Xsampa should strive for this role. The New Hope Initiative already sees foreign aid to other countries, most especially Dovanian countries, and the Wirasena Naval Base allows Xsampa to project power into the rest of the Sovereign Sea and opens the door to supporting other countries militarily. There is potential for Xsampa to fill this role, and perhaps fill the role Lourenne filled in the past. 

In its current state however, Xsampa cannot adequately do this until it can further expand avenues of economic power project, and supporting other Dovanian countries economically, and expanding military power projection and supporting Dovanian countries with their militaries. If Xsampa is to inhabit this role, then the Samshto Report argues that Xsampa must move to correct these issues and continue supporting Dovanian countries and institutions. If Xsampa cannot do this, then it cannot realistically achieve replacing Lourenne, and will be limited to raw regional power projection. Leaving Dovanian states to reasonably turn to other countries, outside of Dovani.
