What Preparations for war has Blefuscu completed?

English
1 answer:
adoni [48]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Blefuscu had prepared a fleet of ships ready to attack Lilliput.

Explanation:

Jonathan Swift's adventure story "Gulliver's Travels," tells the story of Lemuel Gulliver, and his time traveling the different places of the world. These different 'countries/ kingdoms' are indirect references to the modern-day nations that Swift is criticizing, through his characterization.

The main bone of contention between the two kingdoms of Lilliput and Blefuscu was the issue of breaking the eggs. One side (Blefuscu) believed in breaking it in the larger end while the other (Lilliput) opines it's to be done at the smaller end. With this never-ending issue, several wars have been fought too. And in preparation for war, Gulliver spied the <em>"enemy’s fleet at anchor, consisting of about fifty men of war, and a great number of transports"</em>. This means that Blefuscu had a fleet of ships ready to attack Lilliput.
