War Palace and Knee Pillow, Austria’s Destiny
Chapter 132 Destiny? hehe!
When William IV came to the throne, the first thing he did was to catch Friedrich List who proposed sheep blood transfusion. However, by this time Friedrich List had already arrived in the United States.
United States Washington.
"Mr. Great Talent, I have to be Mr., as"
Martin Van Buren held Friedrich List's hands tightly. This time Americans were able to make so much money in this food crisis, which was inseparable from Friedrich List's advice.
Friedrich List not only used this food crisis to pay off his debts, but also successfully became the United States Secretary of State.
"Mr. Lister, I sincerely hope that you can use your ingenuity to help the United States of America get out of this economic crisis." Martin Van Buren said sincerely.
"The United States is not an empire, it is a democratic country that can attract and organize the power of almost all mankind. The political system of the United States is the highest crystallization of human political wisdom. She does not believe in occupation or slavery, but she believes in equality and fairness. Believe in science, believe in creation, and believe in development. It is our duty to make America great again."
Friedrich List also held Martin Van Buren's hand tightly, and both sides saw "sincerity" in the other's eyes.
This economic crisis successfully saved American agriculture and also gave the U.S. government a lifeline. Because the economic crisis and the defeat of Texas had already discredited the U.S. government. If Martin Van Buren didn't do something, I'm afraid he would About to be ousted.
The United States has a vast land and a population of 17 million. As long as time passes, it will definitely be a force that cannot be ignored in the world.
If history proceeds normally, the United States will annex Texas, New Mexico, and California, all the way to the Pacific Ocean.
However, at this time the United States had not yet fulfilled its Manifest Destiny, for which it had to defeat France and Mexico.
Although the United States has signed secret treaties with France and Mexico respectively, the United States hopes that France and Mexico will fight to the detriment of both sides.
However, the United States encountered new problems. Canadian rebels attacked the British army in Toronto. The American transport ship Caroline was hired to enter Canada to transport weapons to the rebels.
The British army in the Canadian colony sent a force into the port of Slotsay in the United States and destroyed the transport ship Caroline transporting weapons for the rebels. At the same time, two Americans were killed and many others were injured.
The local government in the United States claimed that the British violated the sovereignty of the United States, and the British commander insisted that this was self-defense.
Historically, Britain did not choose to entangle with the United States. However, the commander of the British Army in Toronto at this time pointed out that the Americans transported weapons to the rebels and also sent military personnel into the British colonies. The behavior of the Americans was a naked invasion. The U.S. government We should apologize to the UK.
Of course, the reason why this alcoholic commander suddenly became enlightened and could refute the American fallacies with reasonable evidence is naturally attributed to our Archduke Franz.
Originally, Viscount Melbourne was unwilling to have too much trouble with the United States due to the cotton and grain trade.
But a conspiracy theory suddenly emerged that the United States may be behind the Toronto rebellion, and that the Americans were ready to overthrow British rule and fulfill their "manifesto."
There was an immediate quarrel within the British Parliament, because the United States was a country founded on a British colony, and the United Kingdom had every reason to believe that the United States wanted to annex Canada.
John Adams, the second president of the United States, once said.
“The United States is destined to expand throughout the western part of the Northern Hemisphere.”
Obviously, in the eyes of Americans, Canada should belong to the United States.
Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States, also said this.
"Annex the Canadian region, including Quebec, and just move forward, attack Halifax, and finally drive the British power out of the American continent."
Moreover, the United States has indeed attacked Canada, and it is entirely possible that it will do so again. After all, they once planned a rebellion against Mexico in Texas. If the United Kingdom does not take action, the Americans are very likely to replicate it in Canada.
The domestic Chartist movement made Britain eager to shift its conflicts externally.
As a result, a very harsh letter of credence was delivered to Martin Van Buren's desk.
The British government questioned why Americans participated in the rebellion in the British Canadian colony and provided weapons to the rebels.
Is the United States prepared to ignore the sovereignty of the United Kingdom, or does the United States already regard Canada as American territory?
Britain's credentials immediately caused an uproar in the U.S. cabinet. Some people clamored to go to war with Britain and bring freedom and democracy to Britain. Others proposed to immediately make compensation to Britain, because the United States could no longer afford it at this time. A big war, not to mention France and Mexico watching covetously.
President Martin Van Buren made a public speech, insisting that the people on the Caroline were civilians, not military personnel. At the same time, he sent troops to strengthen border security and announced that the United States would not intervene in Canada's internal affairs. He also said that the people on the Caroline were civilians and not military personnel. The personnel were deceived by the rebels, and the U.S. government was willing to compensate the British troops for the losses they suffered.
This can be regarded as barely saving the face of the United States, and it also occupies the moral high ground.
On the other hand, the British government itself has no interest in the Caroline incident. It is just an overreaction because it is afraid that the United States may get involved in Canada. Since the United States has announced that it will not support the rebels and is willing to do anything to the British army, They don't want to continue to struggle with this matter even if they have to pay compensation. After all, Britain and the United States still need to continue doing business.
Moreover, the United States was too big for Britain to conquer, so it was better to continue trading and make money.
The United States later paid three thousand dollars in compensation to the British colonial forces in Canada, which was exactly three times the price of the weapons confiscated by the British on the Caroline.
Port of Venice.
It has been more than a month since the grain purchased by Solomon Rothschild from the United States arrived in Hong Kong. However, he is not happy at all. Because of Austria’s price limit order, not only can’t he make money on these grains, but he also has to pay shipping costs. Now you have to pay corresponding duties when shipping it back.
Solomon's self-concealed method was as ridiculous as a clown in front of this price limit order.
Of course, he later sold the grain, which indeed helped the Austrian government stabilize prices to a certain extent.
Count Szechenyi's worries proved to be unfounded. In order to relieve the victims, the Austrian government built water conservancy projects, dredged rivers, and built dams in Hungary. It did not deliberately intensify the conflicts among the victims and take the opportunity to suppress Hungary as he feared.
The royal family later bought large tracts of wasteland from him, but this should be a good thing for Hungary.
Although the royal territory does not provide tax revenue to Hungary, it can absorb disaster victims to a certain extent, which can at least alleviate Hungary's internal conflicts.
However, Count Széchenyi soon discovered that one ship after another sent a large number of German refugees to Hungary, where they were organized to reclaim wasteland and build houses.
At the same time, the stabilized refugees will spread what they saw and heard in Austria back home. Austria has jobs, food, and land and houses.
As a result, more poor Germans chose to make a living in Austria instead of the United States across the ocean.
Historically, the German population suffered a serious loss during this period, and the vast majority of them went to the United States, which to a certain extent also promoted the development of the United States.
