The Rise of the European Emperor
Chapter 1421: The National and Cultural Problems of the Colonies
In fact, in order for a colony not to rebel, in addition to the deterrence of force, it also requires a sense of cultural identity. For example, why did the United States become independent from the United Kingdom? That's because many of the first immigrants to America were Puritans.
The Puritans were followers of Calvinism, a staunchly anti-king faction. This sect is excluded from the Anglican Church in the British mainland and belongs to "heretics". But these Puritans, who were regarded as heretics, formed the cultural foundation of the early thirteen states of North America. Even if other immigrants later pass, they must follow the cultural foundation laid in the early stage. Otherwise, it will be rejected.
Because it has a different cultural foundation from the native country, the thirteen states in North America have a relatively poor sense of identity with the British royal family. Therefore, under the instigation of the French, the thirteen states in North America will become independent.
In stark contrast, it is Canada. Canada developed relatively late, and the result is that the Puritans who were excluded from the United Kingdom in the early days basically went to thirteen states in North America. Therefore, although it is also an overseas colony, the cultural environment of Canadian immigrants and native residents is similar, and they have a strong sense of identity with the British mainland.
As a result, the old and the United States became independent at the end of the 18th century, while Canada did not obtain the right to establish and amend the constitution until 1982, and was completely independent. Even after Canada became independent, the Queen of England was still the head of state. It can be seen that their sense of identity with the local area is very strong. The same is true for Australia and New Zealand. These two countries not only became independent in the 20th century, but also have the Queen of England as their head of state.
And these also gave Marin enough reference - the colony must have enough native immigrants, preferably native immigrants dominate. Also, the culture must be consistent, so that the people have a sense of identity with their own country. Of course, there must be enough force to ensure...
Colonies dominated by foreigners certainly cannot be occupied for long. Because, those foreigners will definitely make trouble. For example, the British colony of South Africa. Leaving aside those old blacks, the Boers, the original colonizers of South Africa, were completely different from the British. After all, the Boers of South Africa are mainly of Dutch and German descent, and very different from the British.
Therefore, even if the British occupied the South African colony, the Boers in South Africa have never stopped making troubles. Even two Boer Wars broke out, which brought great losses to Britain. Later, the Boers drove out the British colonists and established their own country.
Of course, the Boers' final ending is also very tragic. Because the population is too small, it can't compare to the old black. It wasn't until the 1990s that the Boers of South Africa finally lost control of the country. Moreover, in the next two decades, it fell into the dilemma of being liquidated and revenge by blacks.
And these are the lessons that history has left to Marin - if you want to occupy a place permanently, you must clean up the original natives. Even if they don't kill them, they will be driven to other places.
Among them, one of the most classic examples is the Far East of Russia...
This was originally the territory of China, but because of the wrong policy of the Qing Dynasty, the Han immigration was not allowed until the end of the Qing Dynasty. When Tsarist Russia seized one million square kilometers in the Far East, there were only a few Han settlements such as Liusitun in Jiangdong.
Therefore, after slaughtering a few Han settlements such as Liusitun in Jiangdong, Tsarist Russia easily and completely controlled the million square kilometers of land in the Far East through immigration.
And the problem of the local population composition is also an important reason why the Soviet Union did not return this place in later generations - the hair here is dominated by hair, and there are not many Chinese people, so return a hair?
If the Manchu Qing Dynasty had not lost their minds back then, let the Han Chinese victims occupy those places earlier. Then, even if Tsarist Russia seized it, it was impossible to kill too many locals. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, needless to say, the local Han people will also make a fuss about returning to China.
However, in later generations, most of the one million square kilometers of land in the Far East is full of hairy children, and it is still a p?
Later generations of Chinese officials also have some numbness about this place - you said this is your land, right? What about Chinese people? The Han people over there were all killed or driven away.
Only a few primitive tribes of the Tunguska remained. Not to mention the Han Chinese, even the Manchus can't see it, how can you ask Russia?
In fact, it's more convenient to go to Outer Mongolia than to go to the Far East. Because the second-hand goods from Outer Mongolia are also Mongolians. Even if they use pinyin characters, the bloodline cannot be changed. The core of the Mongolians, the golden family, has long since moved south to Inner Mongolia. Even the tombs of Genghis Khan may all be in the Ordos area.
In this way, as long as China has Inner Mongolia in its hands, it has the ability to claim to Outer Mongolia. The trouble is that the Mongolians in Inner Mongolia and the Mongolians in Outer Mongolia discriminate against each other...
The godsons of the Maozi in Outer Mongolia consider themselves authentic Mongolians, and think that Mongolians in Inner Mongolia are not authentic. But the actual situation is that the golden family in Mongolia is basically in Inner Mongolia, and even the Mausoleum of Genghis Khan is in Inner Mongolia. Therefore, in terms of being authentic, Inner Mongolia is actually authentic. After all, Mobei was only a place where the Mongols fled after the defeat. But once it stabilizes, it will definitely return to Monan. After all, they are not stupid, Mobei is too cold and barren.
However, the incident in Outer Mongolia was purely a matter of Maozi sowing discord. Because, apart from the time when they were chased by Ming Chengzu Zhu Di and fled to Mobei, the core tribes of Mongolia have actually been active near the Great Wall. Those who stay in Mobei are generally marginal tribes. After all, the core tribe must stay in the lush Monan. Therefore, if you say authentic, it must be authentic in Inner Mongolia.
But because of Maozi's provocation, coupled with Qiao Bashan and other authentic "Mengjian" and "Er Maozi" propaganda, the Mongolian side branches of Outer Mongolia actually consider themselves authentic...
And the Inner Mongolians of the authentic Chahar Department and the Tumut Department are not happy - paralysis, grandpa is the authentic...
Although Mobei is the birthplace of Mongolia, it does not mean that the Outer Mongolians there are authentic. Humans still originated from East Africa. The old black in East Africa dares to say that he is an authentic human being?
In short, there are a lot of broken things here, I can't explain it...
...
Not to mention the bad things in inner and outer Mongolia, the history of the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the Far East has made Marin deeply aware that for those fertile colonies, not only must they be occupied by their own people, but also the colonial culture must be guaranteed. consistent with the local. Only in this way can we ensure that the colonies will not be alienated from the native country, or even rebelled...
Therefore, the most elite east coast of North America and southeast coast of South America, as well as the west coast, must be occupied by the purest Germans or English.
It turns out that the Germans and the English can be fused. For example, the old beauty of later generations has the most Germans and a little less British. But Germans and British, including Irish, these three ethnic groups are probably culturally close (Irish are forced to assimilate by Britain), so they blend well. And Latinos, who are also white, have their own system because of the great difference with the mainstream culture.
In addition, South Africa, the most worthy of occupation in Africa, Marin will not let go. However, this time, Marin decided not to learn from the British, but planned to leave South Africa with only Germans and English...
Of course, Marin did not go crazy to kill the local black people, but planned to drive the local black people away and prevent them from staying in South Africa, especially the Rand Goldfields.
Anyway, the Zulu people in South Africa also migrated from the north, and it’s okay to rush back to the north, and it’s not to kill them. Even during the formation of the Zulu Kingdom in the 19th century, the Zulu people were also active in a wide range of north and south.
What's more, Marin intends to bring some Zulu people to Japan, add some "ink" to the Japanese blood, and get a halo of wisdom...
In short, if later generations of South Africa were all Germanic, they would not exclude local rule. After all, they are all family. Coupled with good cultural control, don't make cultural differences, it will be similar to Australia and New Zealand in later generations.
The core of cultural control is the issue of religion, etiquette and dialect. But Marin now vigorously promotes Standard English and Standard German, as well as the International Phonetic Alphabet. As long as the natives and the colonies speak the same accent, believe in the same religion, and use the same etiquette, there will be no such thing as a centrifugal problem.
