In an uproar, on December 31, 1905, Franz officially passed the throne to Frederick, and the Holy Roman Empire officially entered the era of Frederick.
Unlike previous power changes, this power transfer was exceptionally smooth. The outside world does not know Franz's true physical condition, which does not mean that the top government officials are also unclear.
Although I didn't understand why Franz was in a hurry to abdicate, the old emperor was still alive, so everyone didn't dare to move.
There is no proverb in the European world that "a gun hits the first bird", but the truth is still the same. Even a guy with a big desire for power would not dare to be a demon at this point in time.
When the top level of the government is stable, the political factions attached to it will naturally be stable. Even those who dared to come forward were suppressed by the cabinet.
Now is the time to test everyone's ability. If you can't even achieve the most basic stability, then you don't need to be in politics.
The power transition was completed calmly, and Franz was also happy. When people get old, they don't like to toss.
From the Austrian Empire to the present Holy Roman Empire, Franz has long been exhausted in his fifty-seven years of imperial career.
Frankly speaking, the overall performance of Shinra bureaucrats is also remarkable in this relatively bad age.
Although it failed to eradicate corruption and laziness, compared with the bureaucrats of other countries in the same period, it was definitely called "capable".
After confirming that what he left behind was not a mess, Franz the Great, who abdicated, started the national cruise plan with satisfaction.
As for the finishing touches of the World War, it was the "deeds" he left specially for his son. Although the specific work may be cumbersome, and there may be twists and turns in the middle, the overall situation is set.
In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks can only be in vain.
Italy has become a geographical term; a shrunken France is still licking the wounds of the last World War; and the mighty British Empire is now over.
Without the colony to replenish blood, Britain and France, whose vitality was severely damaged, would not even think of recovering their vitality without thirty or fifty years. If you want to get back to the top, you don't even have to think about it.
The invisible Russian Empire is now mired in civil war and cannot extricate itself. The main force was detained by the Allies, and the tsarist government was powerless if it wanted a quick solution.
In particular, the international "anti-Russian forces" have colluded, and tens of thousands of "mercenary corps" are sweeping towards the tsarist government, with the intention of not splitting Russia.
The United States, which was supposed to rise, is now dying. Because of the issue of war reparations, the states have been unable to reach an agreement, and even the election cannot be held normally.
Fueled by the Continental Union, the federal state parliaments have even publicly discussed the issue of independent statehood.
Even the capital consortia that were supposed to support the unification of the federal government have now retreated one by one. Obviously, the world war has scared them.
Going upstream has never been the style of a capitalist. Everyone is a family and business owner, and it is too embarrassing to ask them to "spray their heads and shed their blood" for the sake of the United States.
What's more, the capital world has never been monolithic. Some people's interests are damaged, and some people should benefit from it. At least the local small conglomerates in the Midwest are happy to be with the East.
Throughout the world, the Holy Roman Empire did not have a significant "enemy". As the only "great power" and superpower, no matter how much tossing the situation, it won't get any worse.
Without the annoying government affairs, Franz was in a very relaxed mood during the journey.
The sky is so blue and the water is so clear. From time to time, there is also a "wind blowing grass to see cattle and sheep". Set up a barbecue grill and add some cumin and chili powder. The picture is extraordinarily gratifying.
There is no time limit, and Franz will stop to taste local specialties and appreciate the local customs whenever he goes to a place.
I stopped and walked all the way, and after more than half a year, I was still wandering in the Balkan Peninsula. Compared with the vast Holy Roman Empire, it was not even the tip of the iceberg.
At this rate, it is estimated that Franz will not be able to complete the national tour in his lifetime. But it doesn't matter, just come out and have fun.
The Holy Roman Empire is so huge that it has everything in it. Not to mention an old man who is dying, even if it is a young man, it is enough to travel all over the country.
Time flies by, and it is twenty-five years in the blink of an eye, and Franz still hasn't been able to complete his global tour, and he hasn't even reached one-tenth of Africa.
There is no way, the years are not forgiving. No matter how much you exercise, you can't reach the erosion of time. In the "year of the mackerel", Franz was forced to return to Vienna to retire.
Seeing his body getting worse and worse, Franz could only sigh to himself. Not being afraid of death is all fake, and even Franz can't take life and death lightly.
Recently, a memory kept popping up in his mind, like a dream. In the dream he became another person, also creating a world empire.
Although his reason told him it was a "dream", his intuition told him it was "real". Even the nonsense of time-travel happened, and it would not be surprising if there was another lifetime.
Franz was distressed by the constant flow of intermittent memories. At this age, no amount of life experience can only pass away.
"Father, I just heard from Nanyang that William was called away by God last night."
A familiar voice sounded, pulling Franz back to reality. It is not the first time that Franz has experienced the separation of life and death. In the past years, he has sent away too many people.
Seeing that there are fewer and fewer familiar people around me, I thought I was used to it. Unexpectedly, it was his son's turn now, and he still couldn't achieve peace of mind.
"What happened, why did William suddenly go? What last words did he leave?"
Affected by Franz's early abdication, several sons followed suit. In recent years, they also abdicated one after another and returned to Vienna to retire.
Now the Shinra Empire is at its strongest centripetal force. It is also very popular among the people to struggle overseas in the early years and return to the hometown for old age in the later years.
Originally, William also returned to Vienna, but after two years he felt tired and went to Nanyang again. I just didn't expect it to be a goodbye.
"Yesterday was the National Day of the Principality of Nanyang. William drank a few more drinks at the banquet. Today, the lady had gone when she found out. No last words were left."
Frederick explained. It was obvious that he was also stunned by the news. But this is precisely the most reasonable explanation.
As a king, even an abdicated king, it is not so easy to have an accident. Not to mention it's on its own territory.
During the conversation, a group of juniors of the Habsburg family also rushed over one after another. Obviously, Franz was the last to know the news.
It's right to think about it, this kind of bad news naturally has to consider his psychological endurance. People who are about to run for hundreds, really can't stand the toss.
Waved his hand, and without giving everyone a chance to persuade, Franz said calmly: "I see, you can arrange the funeral! Now I want to be alone."
…
Looking at the familiar palace and looking back on the past, Franz fell into deep contemplation.
The butterfly effect is powerful. With the rise of the Holy Roman Empire against the world, the world situation has long since changed.
Especially in the last ten years, with the dismemberment of the Russian Empire and the further division of the United States, the hegemony of the Holy Roman Empire has become more and more consolidated.
A dominant pattern was formed, and the competitors were shivering in the corner, for fear of becoming the next target of Vienna.
Against this background, as long as the Vienna government doesn't do anything, it will be difficult for the international situation to be chaotic.
Everything is there, the situation is very good, and the Vienna government naturally does not need to toss. Therefore, in the past ten years, the world situation has been harmonious.
Apart from the fact that individual countries were still at war, only the colonial empires had occasional rebellions. As for international wars, without the nod of the Vienna government, who would dare to do it
You must know that the League of Nations is not for idle meals. Under the promotion of the Vienna government, the current League of Nations is a proper "police" of the world.
If there is no accident, this kind of peace will continue for a long time, until one day Shinra kills himself and loses his family, and is unable to stabilize the situation.
What will happen in the future, no one can say. Anyway, Franz is not going to do anything else, and there are enough backhands reserved.
In the past two decades, the Habsburg dynasty has successively established more than ten states overseas. If this can all be taken care of, Franz has nothing to say.
The relaxation of the international situation does not mean world peace. The Vienna government can reconcile international contradictions, but it cannot reconcile the internal contradictions of various countries.
The first to bear the brunt is naturally the American countries, especially the unfortunate "defeated countries", who have been caught in the disputes of racial conflicts.
Second, the major European colonial empires. The recent days have not been very good.
Where there is oppression, there is resistance. In order to split the Russian Empire back then, the nationalism that was exported eventually returned to all countries.
At this moment, everyone realized how powerful the Vienna government was back then. But all this is too late, and now there is no "defeated country" to take advantage of them to receive trouble.
People always have to face the reality, take stock of the international situation, and review the experience of a lifetime, Franz has realized that his time is short.
At this stage, the glory of the past is like a cloud of smoke in the past.
After getting rid of the sadness of his son's passing, Franz has no other thoughts. At this moment, he just wants to work hard to integrate the memory fragments that are constantly emerging in his mind.
"Ferdinand", "Bulgarian Empire"... Memories gradually connected in his mind, but Franz's body took a sharp turn.
After sending William away, he spent his last birthday in his life. Franz, who was 100 years old, finally came to the end of his life.
On March 26, 1931, under the soft sunlight, Emperor Franz the Great closed his eyes.
…
With the end of the story, "Li Mu", who had just woken up at the other end, fell into confusion.
who I am
Is it "Li Mu"
Or "Franz"
Or "Ferdinand"
The sudden addition of two memories made Li Mu completely confused.
Whether it was "Lan Ke Yi Meng", "A Dream of Huang Liang", or "Multiple Worlds", Li Mu was completely unclear about the situation.
But one thing Li Mu knew was that he had to get up quickly to go to work, otherwise he would be late.
No matter how awesome he is in his dreams, in reality he is a hard worker. Even with two more rich life experiences, it is useless now.
After all, dreams are born with a golden key in them, and they are born to be superiors. He has always been flattered by others, but he has no experience of counterattacking the history of struggle.
After finishing the cleaning in the shortest time, Li Mu picked up his mobile phone, hurried out of the rental house, and went straight to the bus station.
While running and praying, be sure to catch the bus. Otherwise, whether it's taking a taxi or being late for work, today will be all for nothing.
The life of ordinary people is so simple and unpretentious.
…
finish the flower
After more than two years, the Holy Roman Empire came to an end. Thank you all for your company over the past 800 days and nights.
It could have ended sooner, but it was all Haiyue's fault. From last year to now, I sincerely thank all readers for their great tolerance.
The public exam is over, and the specific results are still unknown, but it will definitely be better than last year. At least not so African.
The new book is an embarrassing problem. More than a month has passed. Looking back at the beginning of the preparation, I only feel "what is that"!
It may be that the poisoning is too deep, and now Haiyue's mind is full of:
"What is it?"
"why?"
"How to do?"
The beginning of the previous preparations were all overturned and restarted, and the new book was put on hold for the time being, until it was ready to be notified.
I hope that everyone can come to join us at that time. Haiyue is here to thank everyone.
I wish you all the best in your work and all the best. Good luck every day, and the wealth is coming!
