A pig-shaped collection of islands located in the South Pigsific Ocean, known as Saustralasia, has been found to be a rich source of swill (depicted like oil being harvested by pumpjacks) that is described as the "lifeblood of pigs", and that whoever controls the swill controls the world, thus leading to all nations engaging in an all-out war to conquer the region.
