Emperor Hua fell into deep thought and said heavily: "Originally, my first choice to form an alliance was the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Now it seems that this empire is not reliable and there seem to be many crises."

"Did Your Majesty talk about those minorities of the Austro-Hungarian Empire? In fact, there is no other choice. There is another way to go to the United States. In the late 19th century, more and more Slavs of the Austro-Hungarian Empire moved to the United States. They were the first people to escape from the Habsburg country. But they had to leave the Habsburg country not out of hatred of the empire, but out of suffering caused by the Austro-Hungarian Agreement and the oppressive status of the Austro-Hungarian Agreement granted to the Hungarians." Zeng Jize said.

"I'm not referring to this. Do you have any news about Hirobuki Ito?" Hua Huang waved his hand and asked.

"Yes, I have been keeping a close eye on the movements of the Japanese. Hiromo Ito is very active after he arrived in Europe. After staying in the UK, he is now lobbying the French and Germans to jointly deal with our China. According to my analysis, it is almost impossible for China to gain support from a European power or a second-strongest! Compared with Japan, China is really too powerful. No European country is willing to see China become stronger!" Zeng Jize gave his own opinion firmly.

Similarly, Zeng Jize actually reported to Emperor Hua in a telegram before. Emperor Hua himself did not give up and insisted on coming to Europe for a look. This time he visited three countries. Emperor Hua basically agreed with Zeng Jize.

"Do you think the Austro-Hungarian Empire's status in Europe is not even qualified to help China speak?" Emperor Hua said in confusion.

"It's almost the same, because his navy is not strong. In the world, who has the most powerful navy, who has the most say, besides Britain, France is the most powerful. Therefore, Britain and France are the countries with the most say, followed by Tsarist Russia, and the rising Germany, the only ones who can really get into a relationship are the Germans. We offended Britain, France and Tsarist Russia. It is indeed very difficult for China to start a diplomatic situation now." Zeng Jize said truthfully, "There is also Serbia. Serbia has now re-established the Kingdom of Serbia and continued to expand its territory, becoming a force that cannot be underestimated in the Balkans."

From breaking away from controlling and expanding territory to truly independent and continuing to expand territory, Serbia is influenced by the thought of "unifying the southern Slavia", more and more Serbian people believe that the southern Slavia should be united and formed a powerful country in order to escape from the control of major powers forever.

But in fact, it is always easier to think about. The ethnic issues in the Balkans have a long history. Although the cultures of the Slavic people in the south are of the same roots, they have been developed and evolved over the years and have been different. Moreover, Slovenia and Croatia believe in Catholicism, while Serbia and Bosnia believe in Orthodox religion. Although both sides are branches of Christianity, they are incompatible due to disputes of interest.

When interests are shared, you can unite, and when interests are different, you will be separated.

In fact, the Serbs only expanded their ambitions because of successive victories. "Unified the Slavs in the South" is just an excuse. Expanding territory and sphere of influence and obtaining benefits is what every country needs to do.

Emperor Hua and Zeng Jize chatted for a while. Zeng Jize meant that Emperor Hua is best to do nothing in diplomacy to maintain the status quo and allow the country to continue to move forward on the road of industrialization.

Just like the current Austro-Hungarian Empire, the trade that was lost due to the rise of Serbia was sacrificed.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire simply compromised against Serbia and did not impose high tariffs on pigs raised by Serbs.

Then let time give the empire new opportunities.

Nationalism, a hurricane in the nineteenth century, brought heavy disasters to mankind in the 20th century, but nationalism is just a fantasy, a fantasy of group identity, which can only overwhelm the poor lower class.

In the upper class, the proletarians and the middle class, national sentiment was just a tool for crying, making a fuss and hanging, rather than a sincere determination. On the contrary, when the empire was about to collapse, the Czechs opposed it because their industrial products would lose their vast Central European market and Adriatic estuaries.

Universal social progress and industrialization will strengthen the scale of the middle class and allow real-life judgments to overwhelm the nihilistic national sentiment.

At the same time, enlightened autocratic rule, of course, this autocratic rule refers to the way Emperor Franz Joseph adopted in the late Austro-Hungarian Empire, which was ruled through the emperor's imperial edict when the imperial parliament was quarreled and accomplished nothing.

This method can enhance reconciliation among nations.

This problem does not exist in China. When there is a dispute, China always votes. In major events, the Emperor of China usually sets the tone before holding meetings, and rarely forms a large-scale dispute situation.

Restraint, ambiguous, and firmly defending liberalism, conservative politics promoted by the emperor's edict, and social industrialization, can achieve peace for a long enough time, and can dilute the stench of nationalism in the 19th century.

Defend an elegant, enlightened, educated Central European monarchy.

Zeng Jize believed that the geopolitics of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the collapse of the empire was inevitable.

However, Emperor Hua believes that the problem of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is not as big as many people think.

Although Emperor Hua didn’t know much about history, the common sense question of which groups and which groups won the victory in World War I and World War II is known to everyone who went to junior high school because there are history classes in junior high school.

The demise of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was by no means simply because of geographical relations. The Austro-Hungarian Empire was destroyed because of the failure of World War I.

When the giant ship of the Empire was about to sink, all the nations of the Empire could not wait to escape it. Emperor Carl was forced to give up the empire and go abroad to exile. Stephen Zweig described with sadness the scene of him witnessing the emperor's train leaving Austria.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire was overwhelmed by a burden it could not bear, but this burden also overwhelmed the German Empire. On this issue, as a deformed nation-state, the German Empire did not show more superiority than the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire collapsed in 1918, Emperor Carl left his empire, but the Hohenzollern Dynasty also collapsed in 1918, and Emperor William also left his empire.

The steam roller of Tsarist Russia, its empire was destroyed in 1917.

World War I exceeded the ability of the three major monarchies participating in the war, crushing Russia, Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. On this issue, no matter what system the Austro-Hungarian Empire adopted or how crazy nationalist measures it adopted in terms of nationality, it still could not stand the First World War.

The inevitability of history is reflected here.

However, Emperor Hua believed that World War I was a historical accident.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire, the previous visit to the Greek Kingdom, the Ottoman Turkish Empire, and the current Bulgarian Kingdom, are actually facing the same problems.

If the feudal form of the kingdom is not controlled well, it will easily capsize, which is also the place where Emperor Hua is vigilant.

Although China is now under the leadership of the Huaci Party and is moving towards a state-monopoly capitalist path, its foundation is also unstable. It is just that China is a single nation and there is no such complex situation in the Balkans.

It does not necessarily happen. Moreover, Emperor Hua was wary of the fall of these empires. No matter how powerful the country was, it would be difficult for him to bear the pressure of defeat. If he lost the war, it would definitely be a destructive blow to the superstructure!

He must learn it himself, so after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Emperor Hua became more cautious in dealing with war issues.

The golden age of industrialization of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was in the 1880s. With the advent of this "gilded Age", the empire flourished like never before, but the urban proletariat also emerged.

The imperial liberals maintained all the advantages and disadvantages of the generation of German nationalists who pursued freedom, liberation and unity in 1848. They hoped that the group of voters who paid a direct tax of less than 10 kronor were allowed to provide new impetus for their cause as the electoral system reforms and the progress of universal suffrage.

But when this group of voters really appeared, they were shocked by the people they were looking forward to.

These voters at the turn of the century had lost interest in the ideal of 1848. These people were the urban proletariat in the modern sense, and the various trends of the Austro-Hungarian Empire were inseparable from this emerging class.

Bismarck also met these people in the German Empire. Bismarck in the 1880s was shocked to find that the National Party he placed on his hopes could not constitute a parliamentary majority party that supported the government's operation.

Industrialization brought the proletariat to the stage of history. In the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the power of the radicals of all ethnic groups came from these people. The national radicals of the Germans followed the "Rose Knight" von Serel. Serel can be seen as a precedent for Adolf Hitler in all aspects, including the title "First of the People's Republic of China" used by his followers to call him. Adolf Hitler is another poisonous melon that was born on the vine of Serel.

The Austrian Catholic Church, the great nobles, tried to face this catastrophic new era.

In the 1880s, Vienna built a large-scale construction project, but the population rose by only 15%.

All the Austro-Hungarian Empire had to do was to calmly pass through the gorge of the society caused by the rapid industrialization.

Of course, Emperor Hua understood it and only talked with Zeng Jize in private. Of course, he would not give the Austro-Hungarian Empire a lot of advice.

"Your Majesty is still going to visit European countries as planned?" Zeng Jize asked curiously.

The cute president smiled and said, "Anyway, we are here, what's the problem of visiting a few more countries? The terminal is Germany. I believe that when we meet with Hirofumi Ito in Germany, I can come up with a way to restrain the British and French!"

The cute president still has confidence in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and does not fully agree with Zeng Jize's view.

The Bohemia problem is actually not lasting because Germanic and Jewish intellectuals who cannot speak Czech, among which young people can learn Czech or re-employed, while old people can solve the problem with the subsidies from the empire.

The Bohemia problem is not to the point where water and fire are incompatible.

If European countries can learn from China, attach importance to pension insurance, social insurance and medical insurance, there will be many shortcomings!

Emperor Hua saw too many tragedies along the way. Although these capitalist European countries are more developed than many areas in China.

However, in backward areas, China will not be unable to save her. Many Europeans are sick and no one cares about it. They can only sit on the side of the road and wait for death. After death, no one comes to ask about it for two or three days except for flies. This is a world of difference with China's security system.

The people’s requirements are actually very simple. There is an environment for food and clothing. If children can have books and bets, and if they are sick, they will have a place to see a doctor. Almost 99:99% of people will be satisfied!

Emperor Hua stayed in the Kingdom of Bulgaria for two days, but he did not receive an invitation from the Kingdom of Bulgaria, Alexander I and the head of the government, Konstantinov.

The reason why Emperor Hua waited so patiently was that if Alexander I had no external help, he would definitely be fucked by Constantinonov, who had controlled the army!

"This Alexander I's brain is really not good." Emperor Hua said helplessly: "He clearly knew that Konstantinov was a pro-Tsarist Russia force, but he didn't hurry up and contact us and secretly cultivate his own power! Zeng Jize, didn't you say that you had sent someone to contact Alexander I?"

The cute president usually calls his subordinates directly. Although Zeng Jize is his expectant father-in-law, no one feels rude about the relationship between the monarch and the minister here. If Emperor Hua calls Zeng Jize's position, it would be even more strange. If it were in ancient times, it would be even harder to call him.

Zeng Jize nodded and said, "I have contacted him. This Alexander I was not a fool, but his personality was too arrogant! He looked down on our country."

"Forget it, he is looking for death himself, and he can't blame us! It's better to go to the next country? According to the itinerary, we should go to the Kingdom of Romania." Princess Katrina Kaif said angrily.

The cute president raised his hand, "Since there are common interests, we must always meet each other!"

Everyone was surprised. It was already like this. People refused to see each other. How could you meet each other? It’s not that we don’t see each other, but that people don’t want to see us.

The failure of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was due to the world war, and the outbreak of the world war was inseparable from the Balkan hegemony policy promoted by Franz Ferdinand.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire's hope is to maintain peace in Europe and survive the most vulnerable and unstable period of its society.

But unfortunately, it encountered a world war during this period.

This led to a tragedy in the 20th century.

"Let time give the empire a new opportunity" - for the survival of the empire, time is the most precious and ruthless thing. Those who express this lament include but are not limited to Western Rome, Western Jin Dynasty, Habsburg, Ottomans and the Soviets. If these empires are given enough time, no one can say whether these empires will resurrect or even revive.

However, as a luxury, the time left to the empire is the same as the time their opponents have. Enemies outside the border will not stand by and watch as you leisurely solve internal problems. The empire needs to survive first and then be qualified to talk about diversity.

What was the geographical environment of the Habsburg Empire? It was extremely harsh.

In his north, some German relatives still had the fantasy of the Great German will. In his east, Tsarist Russia regained the dream of the Great Slavic Empire again after being frustrated in the Far East. In his south, the emerging Italy barely squeezed into the last train of the great powers and was jealous of the sea outlet of the Adriatic Sea. In his southeast direction, a series of small Slavic countries were ready to move under the agitation of Russia.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire was just an egg dancing on the tip of a knife. Even without Sarajevo, a slight spurt of fire could drag the country into the abyss of war. What is even more difficult is that showing weakness in foreign policy will further stimulate the ambitions of two bad neighbors of Germany and Russia.

So what about the empire's ability to protect itself?——"The Imperial Parliament was in chaos, the Imperial Ministers made speeches in German to announce policies, and the Czech nationalist parliamentarians angrily denounced the ministers in Czech.

The wave of nationalism in the nineteenth century was not because countries liked to hear "ugly", but because in the international jungle where the strong prey on the weak, nationalism was the most brief, effective, and able to make their country live.

After the war, the extreme alienation of nationalism (racism) brought great disasters to the world and the people, and nationalism was stigmatized.

More than once nationalism has been asserted as barbaric and backward, and is the product of the previous generation. However, in fact, today's several multi-ethnic powers still rely on the promotion of the same official language and the same value orientation to constitute the national identity with the entire country. This method is still the standard paradigm of nationalism.

However, it is more gentle than the nineteenth century and is more inclusive to different groups.

Living in the prey of the weak and strong, some people in the Austro-Hungarian Empire surrounded by powerful enemies, some fantasize about establishing a diverse empire that even the official language is stumbling.

Zeng Jize believed that no matter how the "Australia-Hungarian Empire" was reformed, it would be helpless.

Because the Austro-Hungarian Empire's economic development period was in the golden period, during this period, the Austro-Hungarian Empire had done a relatively good job in economic development, but the Austro-Hungarian Empire's economy was reviving, but its politics could not keep up. Secondly, the Austro-Hungarian compromise was an impossible problem and obstacle on the road to reform. Therefore, if you do not resolve the Austro-Hungarian compromise, no matter how you want to reform, you will be boycotted by the Hungarian region, which is a dead end.

This year, liberalism swept across Europe with nationalism. On the European continent, no country survived except for the closed Russia.

But this is more of an opportunity than a disaster.

Europe was closed down by the smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky were really needed to sweep away all of these smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky and smoky were too long.

As the country most affected by this hurricane, there are too many opportunities to await the Austrian Empire of the Habsburgs.

This hurricane will wipe out all obstacles to capitalism - serfdom, tariff barriers, aristocratic privileges, and Hungarian nationalism.

Especially Hungarian nationalism.

I said at the beginning that solving the Austro-Hungarian compromise was the main obstacle to solving all reform issues of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and at the same time, we cannot give up this great kingdom that occupied half of the empire's territory.

A war against Hungary is inevitable.

Emperor Hua waited for three more days, but in the end he did not find the opportunity to meet Alexander I, a fool. He set foot on the train to the Kingdom of Romania in a depressed manner.

"Your Majesty, don't be unhappy. After passing Romania, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Kingdom of Italy and Germany, we still have many opportunities. Moreover, we have no chance to meet in the Kingdom of Italy, the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Portugal." Princess Catrina Kaif patiently said when she saw that her Majesty was not very interested.

Emperor Hua smiled slightly, "I'm fine, you don't have to persuade me. Zeng Jize said it well. The key is to rely on ourselves. Even if this trip to Europe has not been done by a country, it's fine."

Zeng Jize smiled and said, "Your Majesty is right to think about it this way. It is mainly based on our own strength! The strong European countries look down on our emerging Chinese countries, and the small European countries look down on them. What else can we talk about? We have strengthened diplomacy. In fact, many countries are speaking from our standpoint now."
