Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne

The British Prime Minister's Office announced on the afternoon of October 10, 1881 that the government decided to cancel all large-scale events in response to the continuing spread of riots. British Prime Minister Gladstone said that day that all measures would be taken to maintain national order in the British Empire.

The British Prime Minister's Office held a joint media meeting that afternoon and announced that based on local conditions, "large-scale events that may pose a risk to public order" will be cancelled. A large-scale exhibition originally planned to be held at the British Empire Museum in London has been cancelled.

The British unemployment rate has continued to rise since August, which has led to widespread protests and demonstrations by workers across the country.

Gladstone has recently had to dedicate an hour a day to briefings on protests in case something goes uncontrollable.

A few days ago, he went to Ireland to attend a local administrative meeting, but due to the demonstrations of nearly 500,000 people in London, he had to leave and returned to London to chair a meeting on responding to the national riot crisis. At the meeting, Gladstone emphasized that he was firmly opposed to violence. The current situation in the UK was unacceptable and he would take all measures to maintain order in the UK.

At the same time, the spokesman for the Prime Minister's Office at No. 10 Downing Street announced that more armed guards will be deployed on the streets to strengthen security. In an interview with the media, he said that the government is considering all possible options, including the implementation of a state of emergency, to ensure that Britain's prosperity is restored instead of fueling riots.

In addition, British Home Secretary Darmanin has asked carriages, bicycles, motorcycles, cars and trams on all roads in the UK to advance their suspension time to 17:00 in the afternoon from November 1, 1881.

Although the British Gladstone Cabinet Government deployed more than 50,000 police officers and guards across the country to maintain law and order, in the latest week from October 2, 1881 to October 8, 1881, a large number of police officers and guards appeared every day. Serious riots broke out, especially in the evening, when city halls in various regions were smashed.

The British police announced that a total of 12,075 people were arrested during this week, of which 3,807 were arrested in London. However, 538 police officers and guards were injured while maintaining law and order.

The turmoil in the UK continues, and people can see that the glory of the once-sunset empire of Great Britain is no longer there. On the contrary, the extremely peaceful Netherlands continues to develop and prosper. Comparing the two, each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Kingdom of the Netherlands, Far East, Melbourne.

The meeting of the Privy Council, chaired by William IV, continued.

The opposition Liberal Party Gerrit de Vries continues to look at the 11-20 rankings in the new global university rankings.

The top 11-20 rankings are: 11 University of London (English, founded in 1836), 12 University of The Hague (Netherlands, 1858), 13 University of Madrid (Western, 1499), 14 University of Munich (Germany, 1472) , 15 Harvard University (US, 1636), 16 University of Edinburgh (UK, 1583), 17 University of Adelaide (Netherlands, 1864), 18 University of Lyon (Third French Republic, 1456), 19 Western Australia University (Netherlands, 1864), 20 Moscow State University (Tsarist Russia, 1755).

Among these 10 universities, the Kingdom of the Netherlands occupies 3, namely the University of The Hague in 12 European territories, the University of Adelaide in South Australia in 17th place, and the University of Western Australia in 19th place.

The UK has two universities, the University of London in 11th place and the University of Edinburgh in 16th place. The University of Madrid in Spain, the University of Munich in Germany, Harvard University in the United States, the University of Lyon under the Thiers regime in France, and Moscow State University in the Tsarist Russian Empire occupy the remaining five places respectively.

When everyone in the Privy Council saw this, they knew clearly that the Netherlands currently occupies 7 seats, the United Kingdom occupies 4 seats, and the remaining four countries, including the German Empire, the Tsarist Russian Empire, and the two regimes of north and south France, each have 2 seats. seats, occupying a total of 19 seats, and the remaining 2 seats are occupied by the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the American Commonwealth.

In the global university rankings, the Netherlands is far ahead of the UK in terms of both quantity and quality. If the Netherlands continues to maintain its position in the 21-30 sequence, then Dutch universities will establish their dominance in the rankings.

So everyone continued to read the third paragraph with excitement, because every 10th place was ranked in a paragraph, which was clear.

The 21-30 ranking is:

21 University of New South Wales (Netherlands, founded in 1864), 22 University of Rotterdam (Netherlands, Europe, 1858), 23 University of Austria (Austro-Hungary, 1302), 24 University of Rome (Italy, 1303), 25 University of Bonn (Germany) , 1786), 26 Columbia University (USA, 1754), 27 University of Copenhagen (Denmark, 1479), 28 University of St. Andrews (UK, 1441), 29 University of Queensland (Netherlands, 1864), 30 Manche University of Manchester (English, 1824)

Among the 21-30 places, the University of New South Wales in the Netherlands occupies 21st place, the University of Rotterdam (Netherlands Europe) occupies 22nd place, and the University of Queensland occupies 29th place, maintaining the rising trend ahead. However, the UK is not much inferior to the Netherlands. The UK ranks 28th with the University of St. Andrews and 30th with the University of Manchester.

As of now, the United Kingdom continues to have two places for every 10 people, while the Netherlands has 1-10 teachers occupying 34 places, and the rest have three places.

Among the top 30 universities so far, the Netherlands accounts for 10 universities, while the United Kingdom accounts for 6, and the remaining countries are competing for the remaining 14 universities.

There are 3 institutes in Germany, 2 institutes in Austria-Hungary, 2 institutes in France, 2 institutes in Tsarist Russia, 2 institutes in the United States, 1 institute in Denmark, 1 institute in Spain, and 1 institute in Italy.

William IV secretly thought: The Netherlands occupies exactly one-third of the top 30 prestigious universities. It can be said that it is the overlord of the United States in the previous life. However, the role of the United Kingdom now is the same as that of the previous British university rankings in the 21st century. It has begun to enter the millennium. The role of the second oldest.

At present, he is satisfied with the higher education in the Netherlands. Fortunately, more than 20 years of hard work in building a country through education have not been in vain, so he can't help but keep reading. He hopes that there will be more surprises.

The ranking of 31-40 is: 31 Uppsala University (Sweden, 1477), 32 Yale University (US, 1701), 33 University of Jakarta (Netherlands, 1859), 34 University of Lisbon (Portugal, 1288), 35 University of Salamanca (West, 1218), 36 University of Birmingham (English, 1826), 37 University of Utrecht (Netherlands, Europe, 1836), 38 University of Groningen (Netherlands, Europe, 1614), 39 Bologna University (Italy, 1088), 40 University of Barcelona (Western, 1450).

The Netherlands has the most famous University of Jakarta in the Netherlands East Indies, ranked 33rd. This university is a Dutch university in the Far East founded by William IV himself. It is also the second university established by William IV during his period as crown prince. The first one is The Hague University, and the second one is it. It can be said that the University of Jakarta is the hard work of William IV, so he is the only director and the only honorary president at present.
