PR hadn't been much of a concern for Shinra, not with most people welcoming new energy and an increased standard of living. From what Vincent'd learned since his re-awakening about how Shinra had expanded, including its news outlet and media control. It hadn't surprised him in the least.
"I doubt they cared much about Public Relations, although they had agents to help with any problems regarding it." Like the Department of Administrative Research, if things went really bad. Sabotage and assassination, threats and kidnappings, along with investigation and general espionage--dogs of the company so that those in charge could remain clean. SOLDIER was the more obvious Military unit--little more than a gleam of an idea, when Vincent had been on the payroll.
"Once Midgar was built, they controlled their own city which was also home to the Corporate Headquarters, and residences of those who worked there. They expanded into their own media relations, while maintaining their presence in Junon. Junon Harbor had been their main base of operations prior to Midgar's construction, and still bares the mark of Shinra today." A pause. "Most towns were more than willing to work with Shinra for a higher standard of living. Cosmo Canyon was, to my knowledge, left alone, nor had they penetrated much up north, to Icicle Inn. There were no truly powerful countries, other than Wutai, to oppose Shinra's rise. Wutai itself was conquered eventually."
