Holy Roman Empire

Waves have not settled and waves have risen again.

In the 19th century, the big powers fought fiercely for the North African market, and the international situation became increasingly unfavorable to the Moroccan government.

In the 1940s and 1950s, a large number of cheap European goods poured into Morocco, which impacted the economy of the Kingdom of Morocco.

In order to reverse this situation, the Moroccan government raised tariffs. In 1852, the import tariff of the Kingdom of Morocco increased by an average of 20% in an attempt to use high tariffs to protect the local market.

Obviously, this harms the interests of the major European powers. In December 1856, the British forced the Moroccan government to sign the Anglo-Morocco Treaty.

Through the treaty, the British got extraterritorial rights, the right to trade across Morocco, and tariffs were reduced to 10% of the price of goods.

Once the Pandora's Box was opened, the situation was out of control, and the powers flocked to obtain the same rights.

The Moroccan government, which believes that it has the support of the British, has not hesitated to reject the requirements of various countries, causing strong dissatisfaction among countries.

Colonial Minister Josip Jelacic suggested: "Her Majesty, the Moroccan government has rejected the proposals of the countries, and France and Spain can send troops to Morocco at any time. Should we also take action?"

The main reason why Morocco attracts much attention from all countries is that it is too fertile. Not only is it rich in mineral resources, but also 220,000 square kilometers of land is fertile soil suitable for agricultural development. It is Africa's main agricultural exporter and the climate is very good.

A man is guilty and guilty. Without poisonous beasts, the Kingdom of Morocco has become a fat sheep in everyone's eyes.

Franz shook his head and said, "Our interests in the Kingdom of Morocco are too small to be involved.

In recent years, we have received too many benefits and have caused dissatisfaction in European countries. What needs to be digested at this time. "

Although Morocco is good, it has to face the management of Britain, France, and Spain. Instead of spending time here, it is better to develop an unowned African continent.

Now Austria has also embarked on the old path of various countries, and has continuously sent expeditions to Africa to prepare for colonization. Many folk colonization teams have established colonial bases outside themselves.

There are also some colonial teams from the German Federal Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia, which are also linked to the new Holy Roman Empire, and Franz is also coming.

Why are Germans so clear? As long as everyone recognizes him as emperor, everything is easy to discuss.

For example, the Cameroonian colonial stronghold was first established by the Prussian aristocracy. As a result, the Berlin government is now “dare” to be interested in colonial activities.

There was no way. Without the support of the state in the era of the Great Colony, it was very dangerous to colonize overseas alone. In order to fight the British colonists, they logically joined the New Holy Roman Empire.

Another example: The capitalists in Hamburg established a stronghold in the Comoros, busy with the internal integration of the German federal empire, ignoring overseas colonization, and finally flying the flag of the new Holy Roman Empire.

In short, the number of overseas colonial bases counted by the Colonial Ministry has reached as many as 41, of which 27 were led by the Vienna government and exercised local control.

The remaining colonial strongholds existed only in name, and the civilian colonial teams had limited strength. Many times they just set up a plot of land and established a so-called stronghold, or an indigenous tribe casually signed a so-called protection treaty.

In accordance with the standards currently adopted by all countries, everyone is acquiescent to each other in the absence of conflicts of interest.

Even if there is a colonial scramble, most of them negotiate first. Generally, they buy a stronghold for a sum of money, but they cannot use force until they can't reach a conclusion. Without the support of the state, most of them will be directly killed as pirates.

Capitalists who are engaged in international trade in this era, it is not uncommon to occasionally accompany pirates.

Compared with a colonial power such as Britain and France, Austria can only be regarded as a pediatric, even for small countries such as Portugal and the Netherlands, overseas colonial bases also started in three digits.

Many cannot be said to be colonial strongholds, and it is more suitable to use business and trade footholds. There are more than a thousand people in these strongholds, and at least no one.

There is nothing strange, if there is not enough interest, it is normal for the folk colonial team to abandon these strongholds, if anyone is willing to pay for it, they can buy it.

If the colonial activities were promoted by the authorities and the bureaucrats were dispatched to manage the colonial bases, the wealthy Britons would become the first bankrupt colonial empire. Who would let them control the territory too much?

Franz naturally has to learn from everyone's successful experience. By the way, domestic ambitions are led overseas. There is no such thing as a prince in the European continent, but it does not rule out that some people have a brain blow.

Even if there is room for improvement in the country, Franz cannot allow them to establish an independent kingdom, and overseas colonies are different, and they can go casually.

As long as he has the ability, if anyone has the ability to lay a kingdom, Franz also recognizes. Isn't it the throne? There are already several in the new Holy Roman Empire, and don't care about adding one.

He is not afraid that someone will be independent overseas. In the European cultural system, he wants to be lonely. The first thing to look at is not the fist, but the bloodline. Without bloodline, there is no legal system. .

Even now, the legitimacy of Napoleon III's throne has been criticized by the outside world. The apparently stable French regime, in fact, has a very weak governance base.

No matter how aggressive the overseas development is, without his emperor's canon, the government cannot be stable.

Franz doesn't think that if he can be king, there will be several people willing to run as president. Even if it does, does his men still want to be noble?

...

In the evening, the Schönbrunn Palace was brightly lit, important members of the Habsburg family in Vienna gathered together, and the great aristocrats of Austria also rushed in, waiting for the arrival of small life.

Anxiously waiting, Franz, who had always been stable, also wandered, and the sweat on his forehead did not consciously come out. Now Vienna is winter.

"Franz goes back and sits well, don't mess around in front of me, it makes me restless."

Those who dare to reprimand Franz the Emperor have a total of four people in the Vienna court. Obviously, this cannot be the retired Ferdinand I couple who have abdicated, and the result is obvious.

"Okay, mother!"

Franz replied casually, and returned to his seat uneasy.

"The queen is coming!"

The doctor's voice came and everyone rushed into the delivery room. This is a rule, and supervision is essential to ensure the legitimacy of the prince's bloodlines.

This supervision has a direct bearing on the legitimacy of the next generation. Without witnesses, legitimacy will be questioned.

After all, medical technology is limited in this era. Many nobles have lost fertility due to various reasons, or it is difficult for an heir to appear but a dead baby.

In order to keep the family heritage, Li Daitao has borrowed from the outside world, but European nobles have not done it.

It is just that this operation, very few successful, no way to prove the descent, have directly lost the right to inheritance.

The next generation of the nobles is subject to supervision, not to mention the next generation of the emperor. If it is a prince, it is the heir to the Habsburg dynasty, and it is impossible to fool through it.

In everyone's expectation, "Wow, wow, wow ..." sounded loudly, too late to identify men and women, Franz rushed out.

Unfortunately, as soon as the first step was taken, he was dragged back by Grand Duke Carl and said seriously, "Don't mess up!"

Franz, who had reacted, stopped immediately and really didn't need him to help at this time.

"A healthy prince!"

The doctor's voice sounded, everyone was happy, which means that the next generation of the Habsburg dynasty appeared.

Then everyone stepped forward to confirm that it was a handle, and things were considered complete. At this time, a nanny came forward to feed her, and Franz continued to watch the soy sauce.

After accepting everyone's congratulations, after sending the supervision team and greeting the suffering queen, Franz had the opportunity to get in touch with the little ones.

Regrettably, he was suspected of being abandoned, and was unanimously decided by the two mistresses, depriving him of the right to hold a child. Not only him, but his father, Grand Duke Carl, was also suspected.

There is no way this is the eldest son, everyone is very careful. The little prince was held by an experienced nanny most of the time. The Empress Sophie hugged her once. She was so nervous that she might hurt the little one.
