He made the flag and anthem of Tomania the same as that of the Nami party and re-armed the nation to the point of all society being based around the re-arming. Hynkel established a diplomatic friendship with the Nation of Bacteria (Based on Italy), also a Dictatorship and using a short notice fund, he invaded the nation of Osterlich (Based on Austria) During this time, in order to disarm suspicion he went duck hunting but over turned the boat and climed ashore.
