The logistics of the Goa'uld War is an often-overlooked subject in the public discourse due to the general distaste for logistics and numbers when talking about military history so today I will rectify that. To start we must go back all the way to the initial colonization of New Windsor. When the Stargate was first moved to Leicester the majority of people travelling through the Stargate were on a very ad-hoc basis generally whenever enough people turned up they were allowed through the Stargate to start colonizing the planet. This continued for twenty years until the beginning of the Goa'uld War and everything was turned upside down. The Stargate soon never stopped working as soldiers and civilians stormed through the gate to deal with the Goa'uld or settle the many newly conquered worlds of humanity and it became far more relevant to develop an actual schedule for troops and supplies could move through the gate. The thirty-eight minutes that the Stargate remained open for became the bane of many administrators lives as they factored in more and more worlds to supply and connect to. The Battle of Earth helped them in a way in that the allies stopped launching attacks from Earth transitioning to the Alpha Sites and already self-sufficient colonies, but they still had to deal with reinforcements from earth heading to the Alpha Sites. This is also when so many of those Fortified Motorways were built as the roads of England could not deal with Landcrawlers and half-tracks tearing along them. Of course, the allies used the opportunity to take some interesting photos which could have come from beyond the Quantum Mirror my personal favourite is the German Flag over Stonehenge but anyway back to the topic. So, with all of the reinforcements coming to move to the front the British were forced to modernize all of the transport heading to Leicester which they did.

The Kingdom of Italy had been strengthening their democracy since the end of the Balkan War supported by King Victorio Emanuele III due to his distaste for entering politics and by 1947 democracy was fully entrenched into Italy. Despite the callings of some fringe radicals most notably the Trotskyist Benito Mussolini for a revolution and abolishment of the monarchy the majority of the population supported the monarchy and the elected government. With the death of King Victorio Emmanuelle II on the 1st of December 1947 and the ascension of his son as to the Italian Throne Prime Minister with the permission of both the King and Parliament Prime Minister Enrico De Nicola held a referendum on replacing the constitution which passed with 52% of the vote. The second Constitution of the Kingdom of Italy stripped the vast majority of the King's power and granted it to the Parliament, transitioned the state to a fully federal system, and stripped the majority of the monarchies power away.

Fellow Citizens of Uruguay Good Evening a few days I discovered that communists had infiltrated every level of our government and were planning to tear our nation apart in the service of their foreign masters. When I informed the President about this he refused to believe me and supported these traitors. Seeing that this treason had entered the highest levels of our nation I knew I had to take action to save our great nation. I have been forced to temporarily suspend the constitution until we can find out exactly how far these traitors had managed to infiltrate into our great nation. For my fellow loyal citizens know this I am doing this for you, and this will be over as soon as possible. For those communists still listening know this the people of Uruguay will never bow to your genocidal views we will fight to the death against your traitorous views and if you flee we will follow you and we will purge you from this earth. Long live Uruguay.

As Cronus's front collapsed for the second time and Anubis and Sokar began to ravage his heart lands it seemed that the war could not get any worse than it already was for him. He really should have known not to tempt fate. Osiris and Isis both mutinied and joined Anubis and just like Heru'ur and Ba'al the front collapsed, and Cronus fled. Much like Heru'ur he ended up above a world he had never seen before. Unlike Heru'ur he was forced to abandon his Ha'tak and land on the planet via his personal Al'kesh. When he landed he found himself facing a German Panzer Regiment which after a three-hour battle killed him by running him over with a tank. With his death only Lord Yu was left of the original claimants and he was about to pull a very smart move.
