Harry Potter Morning Light

Haiti is located in the northern part of the Caribbean Sea. The terrain is tropical rainforest in the north, savannah in the south, and 75% of the whole territory is mountainous. The word Haiti means "mountainous country" in the Indian language.

During Columbus's first voyage to discover the New World in 1492, because his ship ran aground and could not bring the crew of the other two ships back to Spain, the Navidade Castle was established in Cap Haitien.

When Columbus returned here in 1493, he found no one alive in the castle, so he established the colony of Isabella in Hispaniola to the north coast.

In 1502, Hispaniola officially became a Spanish colony. After the military resistance failed, the Indians on the island became slaves for mining gold, growing sugar cane and raising cattle. But after a smallpox, the aborigines disappeared on the island, planters and ranchers abandoned the place one after another, the island gradually became a no-man's land, and gradually became a stronghold for British, French, and Dutch pirates.

By the end of the 16th century, these pirates had seriously threatened Spain's sea routes. Some hunters from Britain, France, Holland and other countries gradually came to the west of Hispaniola Island to hunt bison and wild boars and sell them as salted meat to pirates. , and some farmers grow tobacco and food crops.

In 1640 the French took the island and renamed Hispaniola Santo Domingo. The French government persuaded those hunters to emigrate to the colonial area and become permanent farmers. With the continuous immigration of French colonists, Santo Domingo has become one of the richest colonies in America.

The principal crops here were tobacco and indigo, and later cotton and coffee, and all available land was cultivated.

By 1767, 40% of Europe's sucrose and 60% of coffee came from here, but most of the grain needed to be imported.

The French Revolution broke out in 1789, which brought great impact to the French colonies in the Western Hemisphere. In 1790, the black slaves in St. Doc spread the news of preparing for an uprising through the secret opportunity of Voodoo at night. In 1791, the black slaves in the plains The first to launch a surprise attack on white plantations, 180 sugar cane plantations, 900 coffee and indigo plantations were destroyed.

The black leader Dusan Louverture was originally a plantation slave. After the uprising in 1791, he was wandered and robbed in the north of San Dominique. After the war between Spain and the French Republic broke out, he joined the Spanish army and became a mercenary of the royalist party.

In 1793, France promulgated a decree to liberate the slaves of St. Dominique. The surviving whites fled to the United States, Cuba, Jamaica and Puerto Rico in order to avoid the revenge of the blacks.

When the British army invaded in 1794, he led a mutiny from the Spanish army and joined the army of the French Republic instead. Dusan Louverture received support from the United States, and received ships and supplies from the United States. In 1798, the British commander signed a peace treaty with Dusan Louverture and withdrew his troops.

After the British withdrawal, Toussaint Louverture turned to attack the mixed-race territory in the south and west, massacring more than 10,000 mixed-race women and children, and the entire territory of Santo Domingo was under his control so far.

Then he ordered the freed slaves to end their wanderings and return to the land to work, and the economy of St. Dominic, which was almost destroyed, gradually recovered.

Napoleon Bonaparte's plan was to retake Santo Domingo.

With this piece of land, sugar, tobacco, and indigo are all solved, but San Dominic is not only a piece of rich land, poor sanitation makes the disease spread here, it is a very dangerous place for colonists from afar .

In view of the fact that the aborigines became extinct due to smallpox, all soldiers who participated in the war must be vaccinated. Leza Manesia set up a free vaccination station in Lower Rhine County. Although some people become beggars, it does not mean that he is not brave. You can be called up for re-enlistment, and the vaccination station in the Lower Rhine is already a recruiting office.

After the American War of Independence, the plantation still existed. The novel "Gone with the Wind" tells the story of a plantation lady whose life was destroyed under the Civil War.

During the War of Independence, France sent troops to help the United States fight Britain, but after the independence of the United States, a series of contradictions were left behind, or the French plantation owners believed that the War of Independence was won by France.

On the instrument of surrender signed by the British commander Earl Cornwallis, three more American and French allied forces signed it. Washington and the rest were two Frenchmen, Earl Rochambeau and Earl Grasse. The place where the peace treaty of Paris was signed was the Palace of Versailles.

Washington voluntarily abdicated because he was a great man. There are still many supporters of the American monarchy. The Democratic Party regards independent farmers as its mainstay. It has a lot of support in the west and south, but it has little influence in the six northeastern states. This area happens to be a former French colony in North America. Quebec means "fjord" in Indian language. French-speaking people in Quebec account for 91%. After the Seven Years War, Quebec was ceded to Britain by France as an appendage. Britain divided the original colony into Upper Canada and Lower Canada, the two parts are collectively known as the Province of Canada.

Fighting Saint Dominic has been in preparation for a long time. This "hunt" is in a sense a selection, and it is inevitable to fight in the Saint Dominic jungle.

This place can be understood as the first fortress that Napoleon occupied after crossing the Alps.

Before stepping down as prime minister, William Pitt Jr. had publicly stated that he considered Trinidad to be more economically valuable than Malta.

Trinidad is on the southern coastline of central Cuba, which is very suitable for smuggling. Haven't Britain and France signed a peace treaty now? The French navy can also carry soldiers across the Atlantic to the Caribbean to recover its colonies.

Both Cuba and Haiti are the keys to the Gulf of Mexico. Now the focus of the negotiations between the two sides is the silver issue. Mexico's Piast silver coin just solved part of the problem, but it was not enough. Why did Granit, the barracks in the military camp, suddenly mention the tableware? Most of the tableware of European nobles and rich people is made of silver. Even if silver mines cannot be found in Europe like the New World, melting these silver can still curb the current price of silver.

There are no good substitutes for knives and forks, and the plates can always be replaced with porcelain. With the source, the next step is the problem of "pumping water".

She and the "steward" checked, not to use the poor tax to increase taxes for France. The French in the 18th century were afraid to invest their savings in anything other than their own land, safes, and businesses they controlled or industries they thought they knew. This is one of the reasons why the French economy is backward.

Georgiana got out farming loans, and financiers who felt they could control the farmers swarmed. They didn't know the impact of the weather on agriculture, and they only saw the 7% profit brought by the bumper harvest. They borrowed 1.2 billion The interest amounted to more than 84 million, accounting for almost one-third of the annual tax revenue during the Louis XVI period.

The 1.2 billion apportioned to 36 million French residents is only 33 francs per person. This is not money at all for those big shots, but it is a huge sum of money for the bottom residents.

Who will have a good face on tax collectors? But Montesquieu's book says that paying taxes is to use part of the money to protect the other part of the money.

As long as you still agree with this system and feel that you can benefit from it, you have to pay money to maintain the operation of this system.

In 1796, France agreed to grant citizenship to the Jews, but they had to pay a special tax, so it seemed that squeezing silver from the Jews was the best way.

But Georgiana didn't intend to do that. She still remembered what Caprara said about exhorting good people. The reason why the church accepted Napoleon's special appointment for teaching affairs was for the sake of future churches, not for profit. The Jews are indeed hateful, but those robbers who rob them must still be caught. What they disrupt is social order, which is not worth advocating, let alone applauding.

The hunt was on again in the forest, and the blast of the charge horn sounded impassioned, but that was Napoleon's "work."

Georgiana also wanted to applaud her "boyfriend", but she was thinking hard in the tent.

The enclosure movement also affected Scotland. Napoleoni originally thought that she asked the French to borrow troops to make Scotland independent.

He is like this, he likes to be respected by women, Baolin walks through the desert with his own strength, and gets the respect of soldiers, so he uses her to take revenge on Josephine.

After achieving his goal, he felt that Baolin had behaved improperly in Paris, so he sent her away to marry someone else, while her original husband got a promotion and got another good marriage.

Having French soldiers protect British expatriates was something she'd thought of in a flash, but he and Granit seemed to take it seriously.

This kind of time requires him to have a clear head, Rousseau said in "Constitution for Corsica": militaristic and warlike ideas, one of the most obvious and dangerous reasons for increasing taxes, are often caused by another The real motive of this preference is not to expand the territory of the country as it is claimed, but to realize what the leader hides in his heart and to strengthen his rule in the country. Conspiracy, to take advantage of this opportunity to expand the army, and use the purpose of war to fan a frenzy in the minds of citizens to achieve the ends that the chiefs want to achieve.

Few people suffered more from excessive taxes and lower living standards than the people of the victorious countries, whose victory itself brought them more misery.

Rousseau predicted in the book that a Corsican would change the world. Napoleon didn't believe in divination, but Georgiana predicted it twice, so she became a "divinator".

Like an inspiration, she rummaged through the pile of books for the Christmas gift "On Divination" he gave her.

She inexplicably felt that a kind of power was transmitted to her from the pages of the book that were flipping through.

At this moment, her mind is full of the appearance of being entangled with the "God of War" on the camp bed, as if she is riding on a horse that conquers the world.

He had a valet who would stand by the door like a loyal dog, and even Marie Antoinette narrowly escaped being assassinated by the mob because the soldiers who guarded the door for her were awakened, leaving her naked ran to the king's room.

She thought of Sirius yesterday, was it not because he was a loyal friend who would protect her?

Then she thought of Venice. There are sculptures in many squares, but there are no sculptures in St. Mark's Square. There are only four bronze horses from Constantinople in St. Mark's Church, which were snatched by Napoleon. where are they now

There is a statue in the Gentleman's Square in Padua. She thought it was a statue of a famous general, but later she realized that it was just a mercenary.

"I want to leave a mark on your heart," she heard Leon's voice say.

Then she opened her eyes, regaining consciousness from the fugue-like feeling.

At this moment, the book in her hand was opened to a page.

"I found your Christmas present, Leon." She smiled. "You're going to love it."

After closing the book, Georgiana left the tent and walked outside into the bright sunshine.
