Perth concludes by stating that, 'Italy will receive at least full diplomatic support from Germany.' This was not only because of the ideological considerations of Hitler and Mussolini, but also because of the geographical consequences.
Perth hits this idea home with the use of the word "obscure", which has sinister implications, as if a threat is there but not fully revealed.
Perth, however, is wrong, as he says in the line after the end of the exercise, to imply Italy is militarily weak.

 Article Scottish Clans | Kilts and Scottish Kilts from Edinburgh.
From the late 16th century the Scottish Privy Council, recognising the need for co-operation, required clan leaders to provide bonds of surety for the conduct of anyone on their territory and to regularly attend at Edinburgh, encouraging a tendency to become absentee landlords.
In 1682 James Duke of York, Charles' brother, instituted the Commission for Pacifying the Highlands which worked in co-operation with the clan chiefs in maintaining order as well as redressing Campbell acquisitiveness, and when he became King James VII he retained popularity with many Highlanders.
The term clan was still being used of Lowland families at the end of the 16th century and, while aristocrats may have been increasingly likely to use the word family, the terms remained interchangeable until the 19th century.
