For a country, how to resolve internal chaos and how to keep different forces safe and sound is a big problem.

There are three forces in a small city-state, and they are also fighting for power and profit internally.

But this is a real problem that needs to be solved, without which the city-state cannot develop. In ancient Greece, there were plain school, coastal school and mountain school. Ancient Rome had Latins, Sabines, and Etruscans.

In the beginning they were just small city-states, and ancient Rome was just built on a hillside. The two brothers were kicked out of the original tribe, and then they discussed where to build a new tribe. Finally, the two brothers decided to count the birds and see which hillside had more vultures, and build a city-state there.

So the vulture became one of the symbols of ancient Rome.

After the establishment of the city-state, they went out to grab money and women, and grabbed the women of the Sabines. The Sabines certainly couldn't bear it, so they came to attack Rome, and the two sides fought fiercely. At this time, the woman who was snatched came out and shouted: Stop fighting. This ended the struggle between the two parties, and the Sabines also joined Rome, which was established by the Latins. The expansion continued, and the Etruscans joined in.

These three tribes with grievances and hatred formed the original ancient Rome. At first they also had kings, but the Latins produced several kings in succession and suppressed the other two tribes. As a result, the relationship between the three tribes was in jeopardy. Can abandon the king and form the senate system, that is, representatives of the three tribes speak for the interests of their own tribes in the parliament.

In ancient Greece, the situation of the city-state of Athens was similar. At the beginning, there were various struggles among the three tribes, so a parliament was convened to divide the profits.

The parliament is a place where all ethnic groups compete for interests. What if the interests are not enough? Expansion, snatching the interests of others.

What if I can't grab it? Just try to monopolize benefits through blood, people without blood are not eligible to share profits.

Ancient Rome belongs to grabbing, and ancient Greece belongs to not grabbing. After grabbing it, the territory became bigger and bigger, and finally entered the imperial system. If he didn't grab it, he continued to strengthen his bloodline, and finally died.

It's a pity that the imperial system of ancient Rome was not maintained by imperial examinations, and in the end it still relied on the nobles, and the nobles definitely tended to the Senate, and they could share money in the Senate. If it is the emperor, the emperor must collect taxes from the nobles.

So when ancient Rome conquered all the land that could make money, it had no profit to face the barbarian land outside and could only split. Parliament is not meant to discuss how to build a country, but to discuss how to benefit one's own region. They definitely don't want to use their own interests to build wild land.

So to rob profits, the final result is to rob everything that can be robbed. It is very simple to rule the world immediately, but it is difficult to achieve it.

As for the separation of the family, what should the nobles do in the face of conflicts in the territory? Of course, continue to fight and rob others. Anyway, they are split, and they are surrounded by enemies. If you grab it, you will earn it. If you are not good enough, you can go to the Crusades. In short, after the separation, there will be many enemies.

A big country that is thinking about development, such as water conservancy development, new roads and bridges, cannot rely on parliament if it wants to resist foreign enemies.

Now there is a problem. There are multiple forces within each country. If it does not expand, how can it maintain stability and avoid falling into civil war?

Paying tribute, as long as you pay tribute to a big country, you can gain legitimacy, and you can also control superior resources through trade and suppress internal conflicts. Fighting is not as good as paying tribute.

The purpose of fighting is to expand, and to distribute the interests of others to internal tribes. The enemy is definitely unwilling and must fight to the end.

Why did the empire on which the sun never sets have such a large territory become smaller and smaller, and even the original allies couldn't handle it? It is because they have no way to win over new forces, they can only give priority to old forces. Of course everyone didn't want to, so there was the Boston Tea Party.

The U.S. emperor said that I will pay the taxes, but I can't get fair treatment? It's better to turn against Daying, and then go to do business with Daqing by yourself.

Daying doesn't care, he puts himself first anyway, otherwise his internal tribe will split, and there is no way to suppress it.

In fact, the former Soviet Union is the same. Once the parliamentary system is changed, each member country will speak for its own interests, and everyone will have to separate. Who cares about you barbarians?

Of course it is right to do it for your own benefit, but once you only think about yourself, then you cannot take advantage of others. We can only fight and expand by ourselves, but which country can always win wars? If any country had invented a way to win war, it would have ruled the world long ago.

No one can win all the time, so there will always be a day of failure in foreign expansion, and the parliament will consider splitting up.

That's why some foolish and naive people think that when the U.S. imperialists encounter problems, they just need to unite and fight against the outside world. But I didn't think that the people in the parliament were thinking about family separation, because from the very beginning, the parliament was not thinking about how to lead the country out of the predicament, but how to ensure the maximization of the interests of its own region.

If it is not beneficial to your tribe, you will not support it, and it doesn't even matter if you split up. The division is just right, and everyone around you will become enemies.

One advantage of paying tribute is that you can gain benefits without fighting. As long as you can suppress the country, you can become the boss of the country. The Tokugawa shogunate stated that as long as it controls trade with the Qing Dynasty, it will be the only one in the country. It wasn't until the arrival of the black ship and other feudal lords began to trade with foreign countries that they gradually gained the ability to fight against the Tokugawa shogunate.

As for the Celestial Kingdom, the big country that maintains the tributary system does not need to consider other things, as long as it considers the completion of trade. By reforming the land and returning it to the local people, we will try our best to break the situation of the fellow villagers' association, and constantly optimize the distribution relationship, so that more people can participate in the country's construction and strengthen the internal affairs.

A positive cycle will be formed between big and small countries. At that time, there will be no need for small countries to expand, and there will be no need for big countries to fight foreign wars. Everyone will make money through harmony. Of course, as long as the small country cannot solve the parliamentary issue within the country, there will definitely be a chance to go to war abroad, but there are also different forces within the small country, some want to expand, and some want to pay tribute. After all, there are different choices. Expansion is much stronger.

Dulan said that tribute is a good thing, and internal control is also a good thing. Because people always give priority to themselves, there are only a few people who can restrain themselves, and most people need to be taken care of.

There is an old saying that there are three kinds of people, one is people who don’t care about their own development, the other is people who manage to become adults, and the other is people who do not manage to become adults. Most people belong to the second type, whether they are adults or not. Only very few people, regardless of adults.

There must be some people who oppose internal control and support the interests of their own tribe first. Such people will not disappear, but if they want to get everyone's support, they cannot give priority to their own tribe, and must consider the overall situation.

Tribute is the second way out besides expansion and bloodlines. Tribute does not depend on bloodlines, as long as you follow the rules of tributary, it is the same whether it is Yamatai or the Tokugawa shogunate.

Some people must be wondering why they suddenly stopped getting married during the Ming Dynasty? Obviously, marriages were a very common phenomenon in the past, but in fact, marriages were replaced by larger-scale tributes.

Marriage cannot help a small country maintain internal stability at all, but interests can.

After the market trade in the Song Dynasty, the international trade has been very mature, so in the Yuan Dynasty they were still close, but in the Ming Dynasty it didn't matter.

It is all institutional development that eliminates backward behaviors. In the past, we needed to get married to ensure the relationship, but later we just need to talk about cooperation, and there is no need for more messy things.

Starting from Yu Dayu, the tributary system is still in operation until now, and it has been improved many times during this period, and it will continue to exist in the future, because it is not because a big country is so great, but because a small country needs tribute, so it is the responsibility of a big country to become a tribute ballast.
