@Charles Page will just pay the reparations the moment he knows he's been beaten. He's not stupid and knows when to fold 'em. That will get the Covenant off his back and leave the UPD unable to attack him as the DEC is not one, but five nations united under one banner so they'd be outnumbered.

This will give Page time to build up the DEC's power, arm them with hyperspacial weapons, anti-accel space measures, and make the deals with the various supernatural powers.
