In an island there are castles, and each castle is in country or . There is one commander per castle, and each commander belongs to the same country as the castle he's initially in. There are some (two-way) roads between castles (there may be roads between castles of different countries), and call two castles adjacent if there is a road between them. Prove that the following two statements are equivalent: (1) If some commanders from country move to attack an adjacent castle in country , some commanders from country could appropriately move in defense to adjacent castles in country so that in every castle of country , the number of country 's commanders defending that castle is not less than the number of country 's commanders attacking that castle. (Each commander can defend or attack only one castle at a time.) (2) For any arbitrary set of castles in country , the number of country 's castles that are in or adjacent to at least one of the castle in is not less than the number of country 's castles that are adjacent to at least one of the castles in .
