African Entrepreneurship Record

The changes in the situation on the European continent will not affect the stable development of the East African colonies for the time being, and Leopold's distress will require a long period of wrangling between Prussia and France, so no results will be seen this year.

However, Ernst knew that the Spanish throne was a mirror image to Leopold. Of course, that was fine, because Amadeo I, who was born in the Savoy dynasty of Italy in the future, would prove that this throne was a hot commodity.

Amadeo I almost replicated the ending of Charles I (with the British) and Louis XVI of France, but Amadeo I was more flexible. As soon as he arrived in Madrid, he understood that he was not capable of solving the problems faced by Spain.

In 1873, Amedeo I abdicated his throne on his own initiative, returned to Italy with ease, and became Amedeo, Duke of Aosta again.

The Spanish throne looks good, but it only looks good. Behind it is not only the various forces in Spain involved, but also the intervention of the great powers.

However, history still proves that the Republic cannot save Spain. Even after two world wars and going round and round, Spain finally returned to the monarchy.

Therefore, it is not that the Hechingen royal family did nothing. While everyone else was paying attention to the situation in Spain, the Hechingen royal family had already gone to Paris to contact the future King of Spain, Alfonso XII.

The icing on the cake is never as touching as providing help in times of need, especially Alfonso XII, who is now implicated by his mother, the former Queen of Spain (Shadow II).

Of course, the relationship between mother and son was very good, and Alfonso XII just hated the Spanish rebels.

In fact, the reformist general Juan Prim launched a failed military coup in 1866, but it was Juan Prim's comeback in 1868 that succeeded.

October 16, 1868.

Paris.

"Your Majesty the Queen, Your Highness the Prince, on behalf of the Royal Family of Hechingen, I express my sympathy for your experience. My Prince and His Royal Highness the Prince have said that the rebels will not end well after all." Tom came to Paris on behalf of the Royal Family of Hechingen to express his sympathy to his mother. The two women express the attitude of the royal family of Hechingen.

The former Queen of Spain said: "Thank you for your support. Alfonso and I will never forget your friendship on behalf of the Bourbon family and the Spanish people."

Although she is said to be a former queen, Shah II actually did not give up her claim. This also established the legal foundation for the subsequent restoration of Alfonso XII. As long as the loyal and patriotic people in Spain regain their strength and can welcome the prince back to the country, The royal robe is added to the body.

"This is the intention of the royal family of Hechingen. As a country, our Hechingen has long been unworthy of its name. We can only give some small gifts. I hope the queen and prince will not find it objectionable." Tom said as he presented a box.

Sa'er knew very well that there must be something like money in this box. She asked the housekeeper to accept it, and then said: "Alfonso, you have to remember who are our real friends these days, and which ones are You are the one who added insult to injury, do you understand?"

"Yes, mother, our Bourbon family will never forget those true friends." said the still somewhat immature Alfonso XII.

The mother and son are actually not very poor. After all, the value of the Bourbon family is still very great. As one of the three major forces of the French Royalist Party, its political status is still very important in Europe.

However, after temporarily losing the rule of Spain, it is inevitable that some people who came to fawn over in the past will leave in droves, or even defect to the enemy camp.

The royal family of Hechingen, a small German country that had not had a close relationship with the Spanish royal family in the past, came to express condolences, which moved the mother and son very much.

"The people of Spain were only temporarily deceived. If the Americans had not been weakening Spain's power overseas, Spain would never be where it is today.

After all, we all know that Spain's economic problems are caused by the damage to overseas interests, and those traitors are actually chaotic parties who cannot bully the United States and can only find compensation at home. "Tom did not forget the prince's instructions and first gave the future Spanish royal family eye drops.

"That's right. In recent years, Americans have been jumping up and down across the Americas, and they have been eyeing Spain's overseas territories. This is the root cause of Spain's economic corruption." Sha Er agreed with his face.

As a ruler, Sha Er had no self-awareness, but someone helped him find an excuse to escape responsibility. Naturally, he had to blame all the reasons and blame on the Americans.

There is no need for the United States to complain, Cuba, the Philippines, Argentina, Mexico...these colonies of Spain in the previous life...

On October 10, 1868, under the leadership of a portion of the white elite, the Yala Uprising broke out in Cuba. At this time, Cuba was a multiracial area, with blacks, whites, and even some Chinese, and the sources of funding for the insurrectionists were self-evident.

Although this uprising was unsuccessful, it preserved the fire for Cuban independence. Of course, the mother and son of Shah Er, who lost the Spanish throne, did not know the news. Now that they have even lost their base camp, who cares about an overseas island? Even if it is Spain's most valuable colony.

Of course Ernst wouldn't mind letting mother and son learn more about international things and broaden their horizons.

Tom said: "Just a few days ago, an uprising broke out in Cuba. The rebels chose a good time to rebel in Spain, and then planned Cuba's independence. It's hard not to think that the two parties have nothing to do with each other. After all, they are so far away from Spain. The rebellion has only lasted for less than ten days. When will there be trouble in Cuba? They chose this time. The people behind it are really..."

"Hmph! They're just a bunch of clowns! Sure enough, their purpose is to destroy Spain. I knew they didn't have good intentions, but I didn't expect them to collude with Spain's enemy (the United States)." Sha Er gritted his teeth.

Young Alfonso was even more indignant. Well, now the evidence is conclusive. The financial backer behind the rebels definitely has something to do with the Americans.

Conspiracy theories are indeed the easiest for people to believe, and the mother and son do not need evidence at all, just suspicion, and the United States is undoubtedly the most suspicious of all countries.

In addition to the conflict of interests between the two countries, the United States as a republic has great suspicions.

If the United States took over the scepter of world hegemony from Britain in its previous life, then the United States became a great power by standing on the corpses of Spain's large colonies.

Although Spain itself has huge governance problems, the United States is fanning the flames and playing tricks that are even more disgusting.

Moreover, since the restoration of Nazian in France, the United States has become a stronghold of reactionary (republican) forces in the eyes of European monarchs.

Anti-government organizations from various countries can be found in the United States. For example, Antonio Meucci, the holder of the telephone patent purchased by the Hechingen Consortium, is this kind of person. Garibaldi, one of the three founding heroes of Italy, is He stayed in the home of Antonio Meucci for three years in the United States.

Not to mention, Ernst’s father-in-law Maximilian I was one of the victims. After all, anyone with a discerning eye knows who the supporters behind the Mexican rebels are.

At that time, the Mexican republicans were driven to the mountains by three blows. The United States had just ended the Civil War and began to provide various support to the Mexican rebels until it overthrew Maximiliano I.
