The neighbors began to prepare for war, and the French government naturally had no choice. At this stage, even if there is no war, the French government can only prepare for it.
Anyway, Napoleon IV did not believe in the so-called good-neighborly friendship. The relationship between France and neighboring countries, once there was an imbalance in power, someone came to the door every minute.
In this era of weak meat and strong food, weakness is the biggest original sin, not to mention that everyone already has hatred?
Since ancient times, military expansion has been regarded as a prelude to war. The French government ’s actions have once again exacerbated everyone ’s panic. For a time, the European continent was full of storms.

British Foreign Secretary George pointed to the European map on the wall and said, ”The plan is still going on smoothly.
Although it did not encourage Austria to send troops to unify the German region, the French had already taken the bait.
Affected by the tension, the Paris government has already begun a major military expansion, and it is impossible to look back at this step.
The only trouble is that there are too many countries involved. The French government's diplomacy is really garbage. No ally has been found, not even the Spanish.
According to the current situation, if we don't help, Austria is likely to form an anti-French coalition after the outbreak of the war, and it will besiege the French with countries such as Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, and West. ”
Armament expansion is not a trifling matter, especially when the situation is tense. As soon as the government expanded its army, it released a signal of war to the outside world.
Capitalists will increase investment in military-related fields, and original military-industrial enterprises will also expand production capacity in the shortest time.
France has just erupted with overcapacity and unemployment, and through the war, the enterprise is full of blood and the workers have regained their jobs.
If you want to stop, the capitalists will not agree first, and you ca n’t see the return if you invest in real money. Workers who are hard to reemploy will also not agree.
Driven by interests, war breaks out sooner or later. The French government can decide who to fight and where to start.
Prime Minister Gladstone nodded. The French had no allies. This was the basis for the alliance between Britain and France.
I just want to think that this kind of behavior will cause all neighbors to be vigilant at the same time, which is still somewhat unexpected.
”I remember that the Spanish government is supported by the French. The relationship between France and Spain has been very good in the past ten years, they have no reason to fall to Austria?”
After the outbreak of revolution in Spain, the Bourbon royal family went into exile in France. Napoleon III and the Bourbon dynasty made a deal, at the cost of supporting Alfonso XII's superiority, in exchange for the Bourbon dynasty not to add chaos to him.
After Alfonso XII came to power, the relationship between France and Spain quickly heated up. The outside world has always suspected that France and Spain have a covenant in the dark.
In such a relationship, without particularly great conflicts of interest, the possibility of the two countries turning their heads is very small.
George explained: ”French-Spanish relations have been friendly for a while, but the conflict between the two countries is even greater.
Especially after the death of Alfonso XII, the Austrian Grand Duchess Maria Christina regent, Spain's foreign policy has undergone a fundamental change, from the original pro-law to pro-Olympic.
The current relationship between France and Spain can only be maintained on the face, which is far from enough for allies.
Just last week, Austria also provided an interest-free loan of 20 million Aegis to the Spanish government. After receiving the loan, the Spanish government announced the expansion of five infantry divisions for the first time.
It ’s not just Spain. In the past month, Austria has issued loans of varying amounts to Belgium, the German Confederation, and Switzerland.
In this regard, the French government has reacted very slowly. After the incident, they did not take correct measures to win over countries, but instead sent people to warn and threaten. ”
As good neighbors, France and Spain have never fought less, and the Habsburg dynasty has also made outstanding contributions in this regard.
