(235) A curious crew were thus thrown together. [...] a tiny European 
Conclave or League of Nations, assembled here while political chaos howled 
outside.

This is a very sucinct description.  We have a union of colonizing forces at 
Foppl's Siege Party.  "Seiege" is really a joke for these folks.  And so 
also is the implied nobility of the League of Nations.  Thus Weissmann's 
laugh at Mondaugen's naive "The Protectorate? But it's under the League of 
Nations"...

Tell me another one!
