This is so baffling. Like, what benefit could this possibly achieve beyond "map bigger"? And in that case, why stop here? I know that dominion is the point and all, but why in God's name would this be worth the resources? And is this suggesting we immediately make these conquered terrotories into states? My head hurts.

According to the article linked in the other thread on this, it mostly seems to be threat display to squeeze concessions out of Panama and Canada. Doesn't explain the Greenland obsession, tho.
