    I literally laughed out loud at this as soon as I realized Humanity thought this was more tourism than anything. That was an amazing plot twist, lol!

    Then The Krzils get attacked.
    Ok the humans should be arriv...... HOLY SHIT THAT'S A BIG FLEET!
    Human radio chatter: The fuck, are they lining up for a broadside?
    **howls of derisive laughter ensue**
    (still laughing) open fire.
    The Krzils command: Incoming hyperdrive signals.
    Hostile fleet immediately ripped to shreds.
    Krizls: stunned silence
    Continuing human radio chatter:
    ...and THAT, ladies and mentlegents, is what happens when you strap a hyperdrive onto a tungsten-carbide rod and point it at a ship.
    Krizls: stunned silence continues....
    Realization sets in.
    Existential terror sets in.

As long as the soldiers are well behaved and only use their weapons when it's completely justified (self defense, detaining actual criminals), most people won't have a problem with them. If anything, people will feel MORE secure around such trustworthy people because they know the "guests" are doubling as security guards.

    Sadly I rather say this fiction is anchored to reality. There is a book called "Hikayat Abdullah" a biography of his time during the colonial era in Southeast Asia. He recorded testimonials from common peasants how they would be happier to live under British Imperialism because of the stability it promised. The time was harsh after the fall of the Malaccan empire.
    Malaya was then a crown jewel of the British empire. The revenue from us was so high even the taxes more than enough to finance the dreadnought HMS Malaya which at that time the biggest and most advance class of battleship.
    But then the good time ends. After ww2 and giving us independence, during the Thatcher era they were very insultingly oppressive and proven to be untrustworthy trade partner...so in the end with "Guthrie Dawn Raid" operation, we hammered the final nail on the coffin of the British empire.
