>"got" as in the past tense of "get" or "got to" as in "have to"?

In my particular dialect of English, it can only be the former, as the
second would need another auxiliary verb: "we've got to annex". I was
referring to the fact that the cartoon shows Lojbanistan as including the
territory of Loglandia.
