Chapter 1365 "I keep it in my heart"
Haiti is located in the northern part of the Caribbean Sea, with tropical rainforest in the north and tropical grassland in the south. 75% of the land is mountainous. The word Haiti means "mountain country" in Indian language.
During Columbus’s first voyage to discover the New World in 1492, his ship ran aground and could not bring the crew of the other two ships back to Spain, so the Navedad Castle was built in Cap Haiti.
When Columbus returned here in 1493, he found that no one was alive in the castle, so he established a colony of Isabella from Hispaniola to the north coast.
In 1502 Hispaniola was officially reduced to a Spanish colony. The Indians on the island became slaves after the military resistance failed, and they were used to mine gold, plant sugar cane, and raise cattle. But after a smallpox, the indigenous people disappeared on the island. Planters and ranchers abandoned this 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 severely threatened Spain’s maritime routes. Some hunters from Britain, France, and the Netherlands gradually came to the west of Hispaniola to hunt buffalo and wild boar, making bacon and selling them to pirates. , And some farmers grow tobacco and food crops.
France occupied the island in 1640 and changed Hispaniola’s name to Saint Dominic. The French government persuaded those hunters to emigrate to the colonial area and become a foregone conclusion. With the constant migration of French colonists, Saint Dominique has become one of the richest colonies in the Americas.
The main crops here are tobacco and indigo, and later cotton and coffee. All the land that can be used is cultivated.
In 1767, 40% of sucrose and 60% of coffee in Europe originated from this, but most of the grain needed to be imported.
The outbreak of the French Revolution in 1789 had a great impact on the French colonies in the western hemisphere. In 1790, the black slaves of Saint-Domec spread the news of preparing for an uprising through the secret opportunity of night voodoo, and the black slaves in the plains in 1791. It was the first to launch a surprise attack on white plantations. 180 sugarcane plantations, 900 coffee and indigo plantations were destroyed.
The black leader Dusan Louvidul was originally a plantation slave. After the 1791 uprising, he was looted by strays in the north of San Domenico. After the war broke out between Spain and the French Republic, he joined the Spanish army and became a mercenary of the royalist party.
France issued a decree in 1793 to liberate the slaves of St. Dominic. In order to avoid black retaliation, the surviving whites fled to the United States, Cuba, Jamaica and Puerto Rico.
In 1794, the British army invaded. He led his troops to mutiny from the Spanish army and joined the army of the French Republic. Dusan Louvidul received the support of the United States and received ships and supplies from the United States. In 1798, the British commander-in-chief signed a peace treaty with Dusan Louvidul and withdrew the army.
After the British withdrew, Dusan Louvidul turned to attack the mixed-race areas in the south and west, slaughtering more than 10,000 mixed-race women and children, and the whole territory of St. Dominic was under his control.
Then he ordered the released slaves to end their wanderings and return to the land to work. The almost destroyed St. Dominic’s economy gradually recovered.
Napoleon Bonaparte’s troop plan was to retake Saint Dominic.
With this land, sugar, tobacco, and indigo are all solved, but Santo Dominique is not just a rich land. The poor sanitation spreads diseases here, and it is a very dangerous place for colonists from afar. .
In view of the extinction of the indigenous people due to smallpox, all soldiers who participated in the war must be vaccinated against cowpox. Reza Manesia established a free vaccination station in Lower Rhine. Although some people became beggars, it did not mean that he was not brave and retired. Can be conscripted into the army again, the vaccination station in Lower Rhine is already regarded as a recruiting office.
After the American War of Independence, the plantation still exists. The novel "Gone with the Wind" is about the story of the life of a plantation lady who was once destroyed during the Civil War.
France sent troops to help the United States fight against Britain during the War of Independence, but after the independence of the United States, a series of contradictions were left behind. In other words, French planters believed that it was the war of independence that France won.
On the letter of surrender signed by the British commander Count Cornwallis, three American and French coalition forces signed. Washington and the remaining two Frenchmen, Count Rochambeau and Count Grasse, signed the Paris peace treaty at the Palace of Versailles.
Washington took the initiative to abdicate because he is a great figure. 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 power in the six northeastern states. The area happened to be the former colony of France in North America. Quebec means "fjord" in Indian language, and 91% of Quebec can speak French. After the Seven Years' War, Quebec was ceded to Britain by France as an accessory. Britain divided the original colony into Upper Canada and Lower Canada, the two parts are collectively called the Canadian Province.
The fight against St. Dominic has been in preparation for a long time. In a sense, this "hunting" is a selection of generals. Jungle wars in St. Dominic are inevitable.
This place can be understood as the first fortress occupied by Napoleon after crossing the Alps.
Before he stepped down as prime minister, William Pitt Jr. publicly stated that he believed that Trinidad had more economic value than Malta.
Trinidad is on the southern coastline of central Cuba, which is very suitable for smuggling. Isn’t Britain and France signing a peace treaty now? The French navy can also carry soldiers across the Atlantic to the Caribbean to reclaim its colonies.
Both Cuba and Haiti are the keys to the Gulf of Mexico. The focus of negotiations between the two sides is now on the issue of silver. Mexico’s Piast silver coin has solved part of the problem, but it is still not enough. Georgiana is still thinking about being in Meudon Forest that day Why did Granit’s barracks suddenly mention tableware? Many of the tableware of European aristocrats and wealthy people are made of silver. Even if Europe does not find silver mines like the New World, melting this silver can also curb the current silver price.
No good substitutes for knives and forks can be found. The plates can always be replaced with porcelain. With the source, the next issue is "pumping".
She and the "housekeeper" ticked off, not allowing the poor tax to increase taxes for France. The French in the 18th century were afraid to invest their savings in any business except for their own land, safe deposit boxes, and the companies they controlled or the industries they thought they knew. This is also one of the reasons for the backwardness of the French economy.
Georgian took out agricultural loans, and the financiers who felt that they could control the farmers swarmed in. They didn't know the impact of the weather on agriculture. They only saw the 7% profit that the harvest would bring, and borrowed 1.2 billion yuan. The interest amounted to more than 84 million, which accounted for almost one-third of the annual tax during the Louis XVI period.
1.2 billion divided among 36 million French residents is 33 francs per person on average. This is not money at all for the big people, but it is a huge sum of money for the low-level residents.
Who would have a good face for tax collectors? However, Montesquieu's book states that paying taxes is to use part of the money and protect the other part of the money.
As long as you still agree with this system, and feel that you are profitable from it, you must pay to maintain this system in operation.
In 1796, France agreed to grant the Jews citizenship, but they had to pay a special tax, so it seemed the best way to squeeze silver from the Jews.
But Georgiana didn’t plan to do that. She still remembered Caprara’s exhortation. The reason why the church accepted Napoleon’s appointment for academic affairs was for the sake of the future church and not acting for the benefit. Alsace’s group of usury The Jews of Japan are indeed hateful, but those bandits who rob them must still be caught. What they disrupt is the social order, which is not worth promoting, let alone applauding.
Hunting started again in the forest, and the sound of the charging horn sounded impassioned, but that was Napoleon’s “work”.
Georgiana also wanted to applaud her "boyfriend", but she was thinking about meditation in the tent.
The enclosure movement also affected Scotland. Napoleoni originally thought that she was looking for the French to borrow troops to make Scotland independent.
He is like this, a woman who likes to be respected. Baolin walked through the desert with his own strength and got the respect of the soldiers. He used her to avenge Josephine.
After achieving his goal, he suspected Baolin’s behavior in Paris was irregular and sent her to marry another person. Her original husband was promoted and had another good marriage.
Having the French soldiers to protect the British expats was what she had in mind, but he and Granit seemed to take it seriously.
This kind of time requires him to have a sober mind. Rousseau said in "Constitution for Corsica": The militant and warlike ideology is one of the most obvious and dangerous reasons for the need to increase taxes. It is often caused by another kind. This preference arises from unruly plots rather than those superficially said high-sounding words. The real motive is not to expand the territory of the country as people claim. In order to realize what the leader hid in his heart, he strengthened his rule in the country. Conspiracy, to take this opportunity to expand the army and use the purpose of war to stir up fanaticism in the minds of citizens to achieve the goals that the leaders want to achieve.
No one suffers more from harsh taxes and declining living standards than the people of the victorious country. Their victory itself brings them more suffering.
Rousseau predicted in the book that a Corsican would change the world. Napoleon did not believe in divination, but Giorgioanna predicted it twice, so she became a "divider."
She was like an inspiration, and searched for the Christmas gift "On Divination" he gave her from the pile of books.
Inexplicably, she felt a kind of power passed to her from the pages of the book.
At this moment, her mind is full of what she looked like when she was lingering with the "God of War" on the camp bed. She seemed to be riding on a horse back to conquer the world.
He had a male servant who would guard the door like a loyal dog. Even Marie Antoinette was awakened by the soldier guarding her, and escaped from the assassination of the mob, even without clothes. Ran to the king's room.
She thought of Sirius yesterday. Isn’t it because he is a loyal friend who will 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 on St. Mark’s Church. They were snatched by Napolioni. Where are they now?
There is a sculpture on the Gentleman's Square in Padua. She originally thought it was a sculpture of a famous general, but then she realized that it was a mercenary.
"I want to leave a trace in your heart." She heard Leon's voice say.
Then she opened her eyes, and she became more awake from the feeling of wandering.
At this time, the book in her hand was turning over to a page.
"I found your Christmas present, Leon." She smiled, "You will love it."
After closing the book, Georgiana left the tent and walked towards the bright sunshine outside.
