An old-school Southerner is recruited to run a political campaign in a dangerous African election Clinton Shartelle doesn't seem like a good choice to run a political campaign in Albertia.

Rich natural resources make it attractive to businessmen on both sides of the Atlantic, opening Albertia up to political corruption.
