WOOK WOOK ISLAND
The Empire of the West looked to the Island of Sasquatchia as a likely place to establish a military outpost. The Land of Giants had been conquered by Scarabeus Binkel, who had established himself as Emperor. Already the Empire had assimilated Qarub Qar and Vebuttikim, but the tempting prospect of ruling the Sasquatch was too great for the Giants, eager for battle.
Thus Wook Wook Island in the far northeast of Sasquatchia became the Empire of the West's first overseas colony.

ALBATROSS MAIL DELIVERY OF WOOK WOOK ISLAND
The Wook Wook Post Office, under the guidance of Scarabeus Binkel, soon developed a unique form of 'catapult mail,' which is mail catapulted from ship to shore. The catapult on the naval vessels of the Giants, however did not use a catapult aircraft, but the indigenous albatrosses of Wook Wook.
All of this was called 'Operation Albatross Air Drop.'
Mail was successfully sent to the Sasquatchian Front on the Sasquatchian mainland, as well as from ship to shore to Wook Wook Island.

A LETTER FROM FIFI FUMM IN QARUB QAR
The Giants on overseas duty were mostly avid stamp collectors. This letter from the Qarub Qar Province on the Amphitritonian Main, was happily received by the Enlistees' Stamp Klub on the Sasquatchian Front.
The letter above, out of the Empire of the West, shows the traditional naval vessels of the Giants. There was hope that such gargantuan ocean craft would awe the Sasquatch into easy submision.
Large stamps were often used, as Giants were clumsy when it came to diminutive definitive issues. LOL
