The president bowed to his host. "Nice to meet you, Lord Zheng He. And please, call me Sam. I'm not the formal type." Samuel turned, showing his wife. "This is my wife, and better half, Jessica."
Jessica bowed before she introduced herself. "It's very nice to meet you."
"It's great to finally get to visit your nation. Former Presidents Randal and, more recently, Detwiler spoke nothing but good things about the Peocracy. And this venue." Samuel paused, looking around. "It is just as beautiful inside as it is out. And before I step down as President at the end of next month, I'd love if we could get together and talk trade. It has been too long since our nations have had a chance to talk."
