History
Sigma Draconis port visit
The Chungmugong Yi Sun-sin arrived at Sigma Draconis for a high publicized port call. The 5-day event was designed to "highlight Korean commitments to anti-piracy", but its speculated that it was actually a targeted message towards Japan. This "targeted message" coincides with other legacy nations within the Co-Prosperity Sphere, in the wake of the "Sakura Incident", to assert greater sovereignty in their relationship with Japan.
