Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

"No country can ignore Spain's national influence." This is the first sentence at the beginning of the German Empire's national media "Deutsche Rift".

"Many people would say that Britain is the largest country in the world, the German Empire is the second largest empire in the world, and France and Spain are both third. However, in the opinion of this newspaper, this is a bit 'unfair' to Spain. Britain The reason why they won the first place is because their hard power navy is the best in the world, and it is not much different from the German Empire and Spain combined.

If you add the tens of millions of square kilometers of British colonies, it can be said that in the eyes of many people, no country in the UK can surpass them in terms of influence. In fact, this is also true.

Although the German Empire ranks second in the ranking, the reason is relatively simple, that is, the German Empire's economy is the second in the world, and its military is also the second in the world. In addition, it has a large population, advanced technology and weapons, and these combinations add up. Together, the German Empire is known as the second largest empire, and France, because of its huge colonies, is ranked third even though it is not as good as Spain in other aspects.

But, is this really the truth?

No, unfortunately, this idea in the past is now denied by many people. Spain is definitely not ranked with France. It is even possible that Spain could surpass the influence of the German Empire.

The influence of the German Empire was mainly due to militarization and economic influence on Europe.

And Spain now has this kind of influence, even in military strategy. Because Spain is not in the center of the continent, it does not have the ability to directly influence Europe, especially Eastern Europe.

But it is undeniable that Spain's military capabilities have also begun to extend to Northern Europe. At this time, Spain and its tentacles in other parts of the world are far beyond what the German Empire can compare with. In addition, Spain now controls the world's largest As one of the media, world public opinion often changes under the leadership of Spain. Therefore, we come to the conclusion that, in terms of the degree of world influence,

Then Spain's influence is definitely greater than the German Empire. even. It has reached a point where it is almost in sync with the UK. , to this end, this newspaper calls on the German Empire to work harder to catch up with its shortcomings in this area, which is a new field. Spain was protected by its allies. Already in a situation where the hard power is not inferior to that of Britain and the German Empire. It has surpassed the German Empire in soft power and is looking closer to Britain. "

"Ping, ping, ping again!" Russia's "Voice of Tsarist Russia" carried out a report with this title saying that Spain bullied Russia.

"Every country has the right to protect the interests of its own citizens. The United States can carry out the Chinese Exclusion Bill. This is because they are afraid that the Chinese will seize jobs for their white people in the United States and cause chaos in the country. Therefore, they prohibit immigration The influx of Chinese. This has been recognized by almost the entire country in the United States, and almost all members of Congress agree with this proposal.

The German Empire originally wanted to protect the interests of its domestic conquering aristocracy, so the agricultural product market of the German Empire was closed to Russia for this purpose. In order to protect its own national interests, the United Kingdom does not want other countries to participate in the development and development of British industries in their colonies.

In order to protect the loyalty of its allies to itself, Spain will not... "will conduct free trade negotiations with any other country before becoming an ally of Spain, fearing that other countries will become less dependent on Spain." In particular, allies are dissatisfied when they see that others can obtain the same economic benefits without forming an alliance.

As a large agricultural country and a country with early industrial development, Russia has imposed import orders on other countries in order to develop opportunities, especially when it is opening up other countries. This does have public opinion and moral shortcomings. For this reason, Russia really needs to To make corrections, either implement the same enforcement and import ban on industrial products from all over the world, or give Spain the same market opening treatment as other countries.

This is a statement that Russia must make, showing that Russia is a responsible world power, rather than full of discriminatory attacks against other major countries.

Spain needs to understand Russia's ideas for its own industrial development. Spain should make some suggestions or invest more in Russia's development so that it can provide some necessary help for Russia's industrial development, instead of just pulling out the Spanish flag. After learning about the production of industrial products, they started buying and selling them directly in Russia. This gave people the impression that Spain directly obtained Ergu'ai, earned Russian money, and then behaved obediently and showed off its wealth to Russia, especially when it was still funding the ri. The provocative actions of the two empires surrounding Russia, Japan and the Ottoman Empire. Therefore, the two countries should work together to resolve these contradictory realities and bring more hope to world peace, instead of the current head-on confrontation, threats to each other or stubbornness. "

"It's time for a showdown!" "International Wired": "Now the whole world is wondering when the fight between the two countries will end. This can largely show how far the world peace process can go. progress.

It can be made clear at once that the relationship between the two groups is not "Rebirth of the Spanish Empire Chapter 254 The Most Shameless Foreign Minister!", but one thing can be said clearly, that is, the world is now looking forward to it The two countries can live in a more friendly relationship, instead of continuing to pull each other back and forth like they do now.

Therefore, this newspaper once again appeals to you, great kings of Spain and Russia, the critical moment for world peace has arrived. "

Spain's "Times" responded to the quarrel between the two countries sideways: After a survey of three parties by this newspaper, among more than 10,000 Spanish citizens surveyed, 60% of Spaniards have expectations and expectations for a peaceful settlement. confidence. Expressing cautious optimism, 30% of people believed that a war between the two countries might break out and expressed concern, while the remaining 10% said they did not know and it remains to be seen.

And in Russia. This ratio of 45% is because they are worried about the development of war between Spain and Russia, and 40% of people express that the dispute happened too suddenly and do not understand the need for its appearance. The remaining 15% expressed optimism and believed that the problem would be solved soon.

In other countries in the world, this ratio is not very high. Generally speaking, half to half believe that the battle between Spain and Russia will maintain the status quo and improve to 1:1. "

At a time when major international media outlets have published various speculations, including governments in various countries, who are constantly conducting experiments, the results have finally come to light.

****

August 31, 1909. Finally, more than half a month passed. Russia is finally willing to speak up and relent.

"I'm very sorry that something like this happened. We never thought it would happen like this."

"Rebirth of the Spanish Empire" Alfonso revealed an attitude when he heard Witte's contact with the foreign media.

After listening to his words. The first thought is that this guy is on their own isn't it? Why does it feel like I am explaining myself to free myself. But how to say it. Spain's public apology is not an apology, but it is a good word. As for the rest, it depends on how much benefit Trini can get from Russia for Spain in the next few days.

but. He also has his own bottom line. If Russia cannot meet this bottom line, then he will never agree to improve relations with Russia to relieve Russia. This allows Alfonso to measure the concessions made by Russia and whether they meet the direct standard to directly prove whether it needs to continue.

Therefore, now his attention has turned to the United States on the other side of the ocean. This trip to President Taft of the United States is also a good idea. When he brought it up in front of him, Alfonso really didn't expect that the United States seemed to be losing his virginity this time. There has been no real contact between the two countries for more than a hundred years, which in itself is a strange phenomenon.

This time the United States visits Spain will definitely go down in history, and Alfonso also believes this.

And Alfonso is thinking about what Spain needs to talk to the United States after the United States arrives in a few days, and what Spain needs to get. These all need to be sorted out.

While Alfonso was thinking about this, there was a war going on in Paris.

"Mr. Trini, don't you think that with your request, aren't you afraid that we will become angry, and then there will be no room for maneuver, and then we will directly carry out war reserves?"

"I don't believe it," Trini replied decisively. If you want to fool me, I have already found out all your details, old boy, just pretend, let’s see who pretends better.

Witte, on the other hand, looked at Trini secretly. His heart was full of anger. If he had known that such negotiations would be an extremely difficult project for him, he should have let Plevina do it.

And it was not within his scope in the first place, but just because he slapped himself in the face and said such words, it turned out that he was actively optimistic about the peace talks. However, he did not expect that as he followed it, he found that in the end it became Such a result.

"We are all peace-loving countries. This is known to the whole world. Mr. Witte, do you think this is right?" Trini asked sincerely.

Are there any objections to this? So Werther naturally admitted it for a long time, "This is a fact that is more real than gems."

"So in this case, what if Russia, as a country like this, makes a small sacrifice for the sake of world peace? Moreover, our conditions are not harsh. We just need a small archipelago, and it is still cold. There are only a few people who dare to live on the island, and living there may endanger their lives, so "

Is there anyone more shameless than this? Werther felt that he was shameless enough, but compared with this man, he could be said to be an absolutely obedient and good citizen, and he said that he wanted someone else's territory with good intentions. If there were awards for international diplomacy, he believed that the other party would definitely win the award for the best and most shameless foreign minister.

The first update, and two more 7,000-word updates. I'm trying hard to code, please give me a monthly pass. (To be continued.)
