Strategy (from Greek στρατηγία stratēgia, "art of troop leader; office of general, command, generalship") is a high-level plan to achieve one or more goals under conditions of uncertainty.

However, scientists have recently discovered that these floating eyesores are mysteriously receding – and that’s actually not a good thing…
