Chapter 229： Birth of Comedy Empire (1/2)

After the Paris meeting, Franz left Nicholas I and left. The life of a drunken person is always easy to sink, and Franz does not want to test his willpower.

Looking at the situation and knowing autumn, judging from the corrupt life at the top of the Tsarist government, Franz knew that the Russian Empire was sick.

Many people are addicted to the glory of the past and cannot extricate themselves, and even the harsh situation of the Near East War has failed to wake them up.

”The problem of ringworm is not uncommon.”

Since the Tsar government thinks so, Franz naturally has no obligation to remind them. An ally who is addicted to the glory of the past is a good ally.

On the way back, Franz has turned into a literary youth and started his literary creation. The far-reaching ”Emperor's Poems” and ”Emperor's Prose Collection” began to be created at this time.

In this respect Franz is still very disciplined, at least he did not find someone to bring a pen. Therefore, this output is naturally not high. From St. Petersburg to Vienna, two oil poems were born. I am really embarrassed to show them to people.

...

The country is miserable, the poet is lucky.

Affected by the Paris Conference forcibly splitting Germany, literary creations in the German region during this period presented a situation of blossoming flowers.

A large number of literati and writers have emerged during this period, such as: Arthur Schopenhauer, Gabel, Paul Heizer, Freiligrat, Herveg, Welt, Fontana, F. Greer Patzer, Franz Greer Patzer, Adalbert Steve ...

It can be said that in just a few months of the second half of 1853, the number of literary works emerging in the German region exceeded the total of the past five years.

Criticism became the mainstream of literary creation in this period. The new German Federal Empire sprayed dog blood. Of course, the Prussian government could not escape the writings of the literati, and even the Austrian government was not immune.

Facts have proved that the show is very useful. Compared with the previous two, the Austrian government suffered much less. After all, it is a place of hope for German unity. Everyone still shows mercy.

The new German federal empire is tragedy. Everyone does not recognize this as an empire. The main reason for naming it is that there are kingdoms in the states below.

The central government cannot be equal to the local government, and was artificially upgraded to an empire by the Paris Conference. Obviously, this ”requires an empire” is not welcome.

A middle-aged man said angrily: ”Corbes, look at the newspaper. The world's largest comedy empire is about to be born, and we are one of them.

God, when did we agree to join this empire, how did I not know? This is simply too bad!

I dare not imagine that in the future people will ask me which country I am from, and then I tell him: I am a comedy empire, and the consequences are terrible! ”

The birth of the German Federal Empire was originally a farce. It was ridiculed by Welt as ”Comedy Empire”, and everyone called it that.

Can a ”Great Empire” with a population of less than 10 million and a territory of less than 100,000 square kilometers be a comedy?

Although the comedy empire is comedy, its overall national strength is not weak. It is only under the powers of several European powers, and its economic strength is on par with the Kingdom of Prussia.

But this was not enough to make him a true empire. If it became the Federal Kingdom of Germany, no one would probably object.

The bearded middle-aged man took the newspaper and scanned it, and then said without hesitation, ”Fitla, it's just such a fart thing, is it worth your fuss?

At the Paris conference, the European nations decided unanimously. Do you still expect the government to refuse?

What is the joke afraid of? Even if the German region is divided into three, we still have two empires and one kingdom, which is unmatched by any country in the world! ”

It seemed that Corbes's expression had betrayed his heart. He was not as relaxed as his mouth said, but only intentionally suppressed the anger and did not let it erupt.

In terms of overall national strength, a unified German region is the first in the world, and even the British cannot match it.

Obviously, this is impossible. No country in Europe is a fool. Who can tolerate the emergence of a Central European giant?

After the results of the Paris Conference came out, nationalists in the German region were silent, and the blow to them from reality was unimaginable.

Although everyone knows that European countries will oppose German regional unification, so many countries are putting pressure together to exceed their estimates.

Mourning is more than death, and many people are desperate and become indifferent to politics. Corbes is one of them.

However, this kind of indifference is only appearance. When he learned that the German Federal Empire was really established, he couldn't help but taunt a few words.

Fitra gave Corbes a stern glance, then sneered and said, ”Enough, you coward, stop. As long as the Germans haven't died, the German region will one day be unified.”

Both had passed the age of Secondary Two, and after being forcibly divided in the German region, they did not go to the streets to protest as young students did.

As the newspaper said, even if all the people in the German region came out to march and demonstrate together, the enemy could not see it and could only run wild in the nest.

Oh, this may be what the capitalists say, after all, it has affected their business.

Since the countries intervened in the process of German reunification, the business community has been mourning. The South German region is okay. The Austrian market is not small. There are also two markets in Italy and Russia.

The capitalists on the north side felt deeply malicious. After losing the market in the South German region, they will still face competition from British products in the future, which is simply driving them to the absolute end.

The same is true of Prussian business and industry. Since Austria accelerated industrialization, their market has been snatched away, and everyone's life is not very good.

Now it is even harder. The market on the north side will be impacted by British goods, and the market on the south side will have trade barriers.

Affected by the market, after the reform of the Kingdom of Prussia in 1848, the economy of the Kingdom of Prussia has not improved significantly, but there are signs of continued deterioration.

This is not because the capitalists did not work hard, but because of reality. In the history of the Prussian Kingdom's reform, it also reduced military expenditures, suppressed military expenditures to less than 25%, and invested the funds in national construction.

Now, due to the impact of the international situation, it is necessary to take precautions against Russia and Austria. Prussian military expenditure has risen without falling. In this context, let alone invest in domestic construction, thank the government for not arbitrarily conquering it.
