Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne
Chapter 70 Letter from the U.S. Secretary of State
The current chaotic general election in Belgium actually does not seem strange to William IV. There is more to it than this.
Before he traveled through, Han Country, a medium-sized country in the Far East, was the closest and most familiar representative to him.
The country's self-confidence is famous throughout the universe, and its political ecology is also the most bizarre in the world.
This country is very similar to Prussia's future Germany in many aspects. The Cold Country has experienced era wars that aimed its guns at its same ancestors and people. Prussia's future successor, Germany, has two major wars that changed the fate of the country.
Both countries overcame the conditions of self-reliance that separated the country.
But unlike Germany, this country has been defeated several times, but it soon developed the war criminal country that almost razed Europe to the ground into the leader of the European Union.
In the past, cold countries that developed from the ranks of the poorest countries to developed countries are also role models and objects of envy for small and medium-sized developing countries around the world.
The secret to the country's miracles is excellent political leaders who unleash the unlimited potential of its citizens.
Whether you admit it or not, Han Country has indeed developed.
However, William IV naturally did not think that Han Country was a perfect model country in the history of development.
Because its shortcomings are still to come.
According to an article he read in his previous life, it is said that this was the inner voice of the appeal issued by their own country's leaders. It was stated in it that among the eight outgoing German prime ministers, seven had beliefs and visions that were in line with the spirit of the times. He demonstrated outstanding leadership and became a respected and great German.
However, there are also several outstanding leaders in the Cold Kingdom. Just like the period when the rivalries fell into chaos, Lee who established the Great Cold Kingdom and the Cold-American Alliance, Park who used the miracle of the Han River to drive economic development, and Cold War thinking opened up the north. Roh, who initiated the diplomatic renaissance of the Cold War through his policies, and the North-South reconciliation, and Dai Kim, who democratized
These people all have a keen historical vision and do not avoid the difficult problems raised by their respective eras. They are 'realists' who always stand firmly on the contradictions of reality. They know how to make major policies that transcend the times and are fully committed to solving problems and solving problems. The Superman who ushered in a new era.
Although Xiao Lu and Xiao Li later also performed outstandingly, they, like Park, lacked in-depth understanding and discussion of the country's leaders.
Such national leaders solve one problem, but create another contradiction and side effects.
"Pro-Lu or anti-Lu?".
Different factions around the leaders have emerged, and these camp conflicts that do not conform to the times have become normal. This is the result of the cold head of state's partial belief and abandonment of inclusive attitude in order to convict politically hostile forces.
The consequences of this are a scene that people in later generations will not understand, and it is also one of the reasons for ridicule of capital's national plans.
After these leaders of the Cold Country leave office, they almost all face the tragedy of retribution.
Many people speculate that this may become a source of revenge and hatred for him after leaving office, and may be the reason for his fall.
The outgoing Prime Minister said heartbrokenly: If they succeed in increasing communication and integration, Hanguo may be based on the world's tenth largest economic power, the world's fifth largest scientific and technological innovation country, and the world's sixth largest military expenditure country at that time. Has become the "Germany of the Far East"
Although William IV was noncommittal about the "pride" behind the cold president, he had to admit that the politics of their country he mentioned was indeed thought-provoking.
The leadership position of their country is also ridiculed by all over the world as the most dangerous professional position on the face of the earth.
As long as you take that position, there is a 50% chance that you will be imprisoned after you step down, and it is the kind that started ten years ago, which is terrifying.
From it, William IV thought of many national election systems.
He was noncommittal about whether it was good or bad, but the attitude of his country in its previous life was indeed worthy of praise. .
Especially the discussion that criticizes the election system in the United States.
American democracy is a rich man's game based on capital, which is essentially different from people.
In fact, the money////politics initiated by the British runs through the entire West. All aspects of elections, legislation, and governance actually limit the rights of ordinary people to participate in political participation, because these are all planned by high-end people, and economically The inequality of status is also the inequality of political status. Only when you have enough capital in your pocket can you get enough votes from the poor, because they are all working for him at the cost of five buckets of rice.
Votes can be purchased for Dutch guilders, pounds, etc.
And internal transactions are the pinnacle of money//politics. Mari Philippe, the staff member next to Belgian Jules Danetang, is the world's most famous master of European money///transaction politics.
His existence, to put it bluntly, Joseph Beit might still have a chance after more than ten years of accumulation, because at that time he had already established his own huge network of contacts in Belgium, but now, the speed of his establishment is still incomparable. Philip was quick to trade with money for Danetang, and even William IV, the Prime Minister of Belgium, did not think that he was better than Philip of Mali in establishing connections.
Because his eyes have indeed seen through the sufferings of the world, and he can find the most vulnerable parts of people's hearts every time, and directly make transactions that make people have no choice but to make transactions.
Although the money///politics represented by Marie-Philippe has increasingly become a tumor of people’s dissatisfaction and a great mockery of the Kingdom of Belgium and the West, the world still needs to move, as many political careerists have directly condemned. , but on the other hand, I hope that there will be someone like Philip under me, who cannot be stopped by people's hearts.
Belgium also developed through monetary transactions. Therefore, William IV believed that from the beginning to the present, the Dutch-speaking areas in Belgium that have dominated the economic status are definitely not comparable to the mountainous areas in the French-speaking areas. Those were remote places, and the Dutch-speaking areas were the lowlands and coastal areas.
This makes it difficult for the Dutch to be isolated in the governance of Belgium.
In fact, if the Netherlands is strong enough, it can also use the strategies of later generations of the United States to influence countries around the world, especially countries in South America.
William IV has already formed a set of strategies in his heart, especially the peaceful evolution routine: the first step is to use cultural exchanges, economic assistance, controlling the country's newspapers and public opinion, etc., to win the favor of the country, and to cut leeks for various subsequent developments. Create an atmosphere of public opinion.
After that, he began to exaggerate the bad policies and bad aspects of the governments in various countries, in order to arouse the dissatisfaction in the hearts of the people, especially looking for the contradictions between people and the royal family, and hit the heart of the people of the country with one blow. Trigger emotional law rebellion.
At the same time, instill the good side and values of the Netherlands, making people think that the Netherlands is the happiest country in the world, making people start to yearn for the Dutch life system, and cultivate their inner dissatisfaction with their own country;
Cultivate a large number of non-governmental organizations to support other factions including the country's opposition parties, seize the opportunity to rise to power, and then seek important benefits for the Netherlands, whether it is strategic interests or trade, etc. In short, the above can provide For the Kingdom of the Netherlands to win more allies, the prerequisite is that the Netherlands must have super strength, not to mention surpassing the United Kingdom, at least not lower than the level of France.
At the moment, the Netherlands is still far from it.
Therefore, the best choice at present is to strengthen strategic communication with the current royal families and governments of various countries.
"Your Majesty, Secretary of State Seward of the Northern United States has sent another letter of protest. He is dissatisfied with the Dutch occupation of Hawaii and demands that the Netherlands withdraw from the Hawaiian Islands and give Hawaii a peaceful and beautiful environment."
Haysbet Feng waited for all ministers to finish reporting on the new week's report before telling the Privy Council about the United States' letter of protest.
"The British were the first to discover the Hawaiian Islands. No one denies this. If we want to care about the Dutch taking Hawaii, it should be the British who sent the letter of protest instead of the United States. Doesn't it seem a bit awkward for Seward to do this?"
The speaker was Interior Minister Jonrel.
"Yes." Several people were also puzzled.
William IV was stunned for a moment, then sneered.
Seeing this, Haysbet Feng explained: "The British were the first to discover the islands, but the reason why the United States should do business in the Pacific Ocean is that the routes there often pass through it, so it has already had ambitions there.
In fact, the United Kingdom and France have been competing with the United States for the interests of Hawaii. However, the United States relied on its geographical advantage and used political and military means to gradually exclude the influence of Britain and France, and finally formed a seemingly hostile relationship with the Hawaiian Islands. To dominate the situation. "
The country’s economic and religious infiltration into the Hawaiian Islands is motivated by its ambition to occupy the Hawaiian Islands. The leadership of the Hawaiian Kingdom cannot fail to notice this ambition. Faced with the rapid growth in size and strength of the United States on the east coast of the Pacific, The weak Hawaiian Islands can only win over other major European powers to counterbalance the power of the United States.
In 1842, King Kamehamehe III of the Kingdom of Hawaii sent three envoys to the United Kingdom, France, and the United States, demanding that the three countries respect the sovereignty and independence of the Kingdom of Hawaii.
Although Kamehamehe III disliked Britain and France, he disliked the United States even more. After all, their warships had invaded Hawaii many times in the 1930s, forcing the Kingdom of Hawaii to owe many unequal treaties, which made the Kingdom of Hawaii owe many unequal treaties. They get privileges.
However, the Kingdom of Hawaii only paid some benefits to them. After all, the two countries just wanted to get involved. The Second Secretary directly proposed to directly merge the Hawaiian Islands into the national territory of the United States. This For the Kingdom of the Hawaiian Islands, this is unacceptable.
Please look at this map. If the United States captures the Hawaiian Islands, they will be invincible in the Pacific. They will also be able to occupy the vast Central Pacific region that has not been deeply involved by the British and French forces. As long as they occupy Once here, the United States can use this to compete with the major European powers in the Pacific for the strategic fulcrum of interests in the Far East and Pacific Coast colonial areas. "
Haysbet Feng said sarcastically: "When we used coercion and inducement to make Kamehamehe accept our proposal to exchange Tonga Island in the South Pacific for the Hawaiian Islands, the king who was troubled by the intrusion of the Three Kingdoms After thinking about it for just one night, I agreed. Laughter. Major General Jane Linden successfully captured the Hawaiian Islands. We have informed the United Kingdom, France and the United States about this matter, and told us that the only relationship between us and the Kingdom of Hawaii is Normal transactions, no coercion, the two countries no longer interfere at this time, although they are still a little dissatisfied, but unexpectedly, the United States is still stalking and holding on."
Speaking of this, Haysbet Feng sarcastically said again: "Huh, the ambitions of the Americans are known to the whole world, and it seems that others don't understand.
Your Majesty, the letter from US Secretary of State Seward clearly stated that the Hawaiian Islands are important interests of the United States and that their interests are superior to those of other countries. The United States should protect the sovereignty, prosperity and independence of the Kingdom of Hawaii, and the Netherlands should withdraw from the Netherlands and maintain the Kingdom of Hawaii. "complete"
I, William IV, sneered and said: "Isn't the U.S. foreign policy policy the Monroe Doctrine? In the Americas, other countries, especially European countries, are excluded from interfering in U.S. affairs. U.S. national affairs should be decided by the American countries themselves. When did Hawaii become the American country? part of
