The Rise of Australia

The successful holding of the World Aircraft Expo also gave Arthur finally time to prepare for the establishment of two kingdoms in North America.

In addition to the already established Kingdom of California, there is another kingdom named the United Kingdom of the West Coast, with its capital located in Seattle, the largest city in Washington state.

The reason why this place was chosen is that Seattle is close to the seaside and can develop sea areas, so the future of urban development is greater.

Secondly, Seattle is also the largest city in the northwest region of the United States, and its population size and economy are also among the best in the United Kingdom.

Of course, because Washington State has a small population, Seattle's population is certainly not as large as that of Los Angeles. The current population is only over 300,000.

This one of the few larger cities in the northwest of the United States still has a lot of footprints in history.

Currently, the shipbuilding industry in Seattle is relatively developed. With the shipbuilding industry, the economy of the United Kingdom on the West Coast can also be better.

As for the capital of the Kingdom of California, of course it was Los Angeles, which currently has the largest population.

Unlike choosing the capital of California, setting the capital in Los Angeles is more conducive to controlling the situation of the entire kingdom.

After all, the entire Kingdom of California has a population of just over 5 million, and Los Angeles alone provides a population of over 1 million, playing a vital role in the development of the entire country.

The names and capitals of the two countries have been determined, but which country the two little guys will become kings has not yet been determined.

In order to ensure fairness, Arthur adopted the simplest method, which was to draw lots to determine Peter and George's territory.

The end result was that Peter became King of California and George became King of the West Coast United Kingdom.

The two little guys had no objections to the result of the lottery, and the final distribution result was thus determined.

Judging from the age of the two men, Peter will be the fastest to grasp power. George, who is still young, will have to wait a few more years, which will allow him to learn some power-balancing skills and do his duty as a king.

After arranging the territory for the two little guys, Arthur focused on William and Anna's marriage.

William and Anna were born in 1909 and are now over 19 years old.

Although there is no rush to get married, if there is a suitable betrothal partner, it is not impossible to get engaged to William and Anna first.

Moreover, marriages involving royal family members, especially future heirs to the throne, must be carefully selected, which also means that it will take longer.

European royal marriages pay attention to well-matched couples, and they are quite strict. For an heir to the throne like William, the fiancée he is engaged to has to be the daughter of a duke at the lowest status, and a count or something else is basically not within the scope of consideration.

Fortunately, there are still many royal families in Europe, and the German and Russian royal families have also been saved, so there is still room for choice.

Arthur also made it clear to the two little guys directly that he would support their free love within the scope of their choices and would not force them to get engaged in a short period of time.

But the time frame is only within three years. If they can't find someone they like within three years, then Arthur will choose a more suitable marriage partner for them among the European royal families.

Of course, as the heir to the throne, William's range of choices is much smaller than Anna's.

For his only daughter Anna, Arthur didn't really have too many requirements. If Anna chooses to marry a foreign royal family, Arthur will give her a large and generous dowry, and the total value is definitely an unimaginable figure.

If Anna chooses to marry a noble or commoner in Australasia, Arthur will grant Anna and her betrothed a knighthood, allowing them to live a noble and luxurious aristocratic life in Australasia.

This is also the difference between ordinary royal members and heirs to the throne. It was impossible for William to marry a commoner, and doing so would most likely cause their descendants to lose their right to inherit the throne.

But Anna doesn't have so many restrictions. Coupled with Arthur's support, she can choose her husband at will. No matter how she chooses Arthur, Anna will ensure that Anna has enough assets.

Of course, the two little guys who are about to become kings are no exception. Although they are about to have two huge kingdoms, they are their children after all, so they naturally have to prepare gifts for them.

Moreover, the gifts Arthur gave them were customized according to the conditions in their respective countries, which will definitely allow them to develop better in their new countries.

George's West Coast United Kingdom was pretty good at shipbuilding. After George truly takes control of the government, Arthur will let the government establish cooperation with the West Coast United Kingdom and help the West Coast United Kingdom become the first-class shipbuilding power in North America and the second-class shipbuilding power in the world.

This scale is completely sufficient, no more or less is appropriate. With the shipbuilding industry, the West Coast United Kingdom can also have sufficient financial revenue, and the national finances will not be burdened.

In fact, what Peter's California Kingdom needs most is not the shipbuilding industry. California's population and economy are more developed than those of the West Coast United Kingdom, but this also means that California will be more chaotic.

Arthur will give Peter an additional small navy, plus some weapons and equipment support, so that he will have sufficient military strength.

As for the future development direction of the two little guys' country, Arthur has almost customized it for them.

California is more suitable for the development of industry and technology. Working hard in new technologies may not be much worse than California in later generations.

The United Kingdom on the west coast is more suitable for the development of agriculture. Montana and Wyoming were both famous grain-producing states in later generations.

As long as agriculture can be developed, the food of the West Coast United Kingdom will definitely be sold throughout North America, and the economy will not necessarily be worse than California.

Moreover, the United Kingdom on the west coast has more land area and its long-term development potential is definitely higher.

As long as enough people can be attracted from the industrial areas of the Great Lakes and the East Coast of the United States, it is not impossible to achieve rapid development in a short period of time.

Of course, these will definitely have to wait until the two little guys truly take control of the power.

After all, if they are really realized, the political achievements of completing these things will give them a lot of prestige and stabilize their dominance.

If it were brought up now, it would only stabilize the governments of California and the West Coast United Kingdom, not the two little guys who are kings.

At present, the courses for the two little guys have doubled compared to before, and many new courses on politics have been added.

They also study various modern histories, including the reasons for the rise and demise of the United States, etc., so that they can have a deeper understanding of the country and rule these Americans more effectively.

Of course, there is another reason, and that is to make the two little guys deeply understand the bad situation that the United States faced before.

If we want to quickly resolve the conflicts in the United States, we must cut the knot quickly and directly exclude the black population from rule.

However, this is obviously a big responsibility to bear, and it still has a great impact on a king's reputation.

Although most European countries are racist, no one will say it out loud. After all, there are many holy mothers among white people.

The best way is to let the government take the blame and let the government enact policies that abolish the legal status of black people.

In the end, the worst case scenario is to simply remove the government, and the two little guys can use this to gain a boost in reputation.

These are also some methods in politics, and they need to be learned and used by the two little guys in order to master them better.

To put it bluntly, politics cannot be learned from books. Only by experiencing it personally and finding ways to solve some difficult problems in politics can you enhance your political experience.

After the two little guys gain power, they will face those old fox-like politicians and the few capitalists on the West Coast of the United States.

If you want to push the country in the direction you want, you will definitely have to put in a lot of effort.

Although Arthur was his backer, Arthur would definitely not be able to personally help them develop the country.

Arthur even felt that some small setbacks would make them better, which is what they must experience to become a qualified ruler.

The European royal family can say too much, but it can never be too little. But if you want to find a more suitable engagement partner for William and Anna among the European royal families, there are actually very few choices.

Arthur did not want to marry the British royal family. After all, his grandmother Queen Victoria had hemophilia. If the Australasian royal family was infected with this disease, it would be a heavy blow to the royal family's rule.

If a royal family wants to be stable, it must have many heirs, and hemophilia is one of the reasons why many royal families in Europe have lost their heirs.

Germany and Russia were also outside the scope of Arthur's consideration. The current situation in Germany is not peaceful. If World War II is launched as history did, whether William II can keep his throne is definitely a problem.

Arthur had already married a Russian princess, so there was no need for his son to marry another one. After all, Russia cannot help Australasia now, and deepening ties may become a burden.

This actually excludes almost all great powers. Because apart from Britain, Germany and Russia, the only countries that can be called great powers and are monarchies are Austria and Italy.

Italy's current situation is even worse than Germany's, and the Austrian throne is also unstable, which means that the only options are small European countries.

However, Australasia does not need external help at this time. Arthur hopes that both little guys can find what they really like. The best way is to let them choose by themselves.

Yes, it's that simple and straightforward.

Arthur asked Queen Mary to take William and Anna to visit Russia, and also included almost all European monarchies on the journey.

The meaning given by Arthur is also very simple, that is, to give William and Anna enough opportunities to visit European monarchies one by one and inspect all their possible engagement partners.

After all, there are still many private banquets between European royal families, and many of them are simply for the royal family members to find their favorite partners.

In history, many members of the royal family found their wives and husbands in this way, but most of them were arranged marriages by elders.

Naturally, William and Anna understood that Arthur had been tolerant enough. Without saying anything more, they followed Queen Mary to Europe and began their own visit.
