C2093 Britains Flexible Ribs (1/2)
”The problem between Britain and Ireland isn't just the legacy of historical aggression and resistance. To tell the truth, after hundreds of years of interaction, the Irish have lost a lot of their sense of shame from being invaded …”
”Actually, the root of the problem still goes back to the religion. We all know that the Anglican Church is the Saint Gong Sect, which is one of the three great schools in the Protestantism. In other words, the Anglican Church is the Protestantism!”
”The Irish, on the other hand, believe in Catholicism, they believe in the pope of the Vatican! This religious conflict has persisted throughout the history of mankind, and even if they were born from the same roots, they would still have to worry each other! ”
”At the end of the twelfth century, Henry II of England, taking advantage of the division of Ireland, landed her army on the Ireland and, by force of arms, forced the princes to swear allegiance and began her conquest of Ireland. During the Tudor dynasty, Britain strengthened its control over Ireland and set out to establish legal and political order on the island. ”
”The true conquest began in the sixteenth century. For the next two centuries, war, rebellion and land confiscation marked the expansion of the British authorities. In some areas, the entire population was ravaged by the colonists of England, Wales and Scotland, who were driven away and then emigrated in various ways to increase the population. ”
”In 1603, the Stuart dynasty came to power in England, and then planned to colonize Ireland. At the instigation of the government, large numbers of Scottish and English immigrants who believed in the Protestantism came to the northern province of Ulster. A large part of the Irish people's land has been occupied, most of the Catholics have been driven to the desolate west, and a small portion of the remaining people have almost been reduced to sharecroppers. ”
”After almost a decade of colonization, Britain has finally succeeded in establishing a Protestantism colony in the Earst region, where the immigrants have surpassed the local ones and the seeds of conflict have been sown. During the British bourgeois revolution, Ke Lunweier launched a colonial war against Ireland. Large numbers of Catholics were massacred, and the land was divided among the British settlers. By the end of the seventeenth century, the Ireland was completely under British control. ”
Xiao Letian sighed: ”See that? Sometimes, when you invade something like this, you might not necessarily get benefits from it. Religious spread has always been a major factor in wars!”
”That's why I've always looked down on Europeans for their literary skills. Their ability lies in their courage and perseverance in great navigation as well as their continuous investment in science and technology!”
”But these abilities can all be replicated. Don't we Chinese have the spirit of pioneering? Doesn't he have the ability to do scientific research? Do we have a lower IQ than them, or what? ”
”That's why we Chinese have what Europeans have. It's just that we're a few steps slower and a few steps wrong for various reasons. But at the same time, we Chinese have things that Europeans don't have!”
”What's that?” Xiao Letian proudly said, ”In this world, only we, the Chinese people, can successfully integrate with our people without relying on our religion.”
”In the entire human world, if we were to look at this Earth, this heaven defying attribute is given to us by God! ”There is no people of any kind, only us, China, can do it!”
”Look at the Ireland! And look at the thousands of years of expanding territory in China! Which is which is higher and which is lower, isn't it obvious at a glance! ”
”Alright, let's get back to business …” Xiao Letian lit a cigarette for himself and relaxed his train of thought. ”It is precisely because of the cruel colonization in England that the Irish lived in extreme poverty, so they had to resist …”
”Under the influence of the independence war of the North America and the influence of the French Revolution, the Irish launched a large-scale uprising against the British. The British authorities carried out a brutal crackdown... ”
