Seeing the content of "China is open to join", Zhu Yaofei regretted setting up the China Alliance... He actually started this alliance for the various Xia countries to play with, but he never thought about opening up the alliance to let the whole world come in.
Now that everyone is here, doesn’t it become the United Nations?
And relying on scissor-type sailing ships, early railways and trains, how much overseas delivery capability could the Ming Empire have? Based on this, you still want to interfere in the great revolution of the Roman Empire? Aren't you afraid that if the intervention fails, you will be infected with the problem of revolution?
This is really confusing!
Zhu Yaofei sighed deeply and continued to read "General History of the Ming Dynasty".
The name of the next chapter quickly caught his eye, and it was actually "The Road to the World Throne"!
"The throne of the world? Have you really become one?" Zhu Yaofei shook his head with a wry smile, and then looked down.
It turns out that the King of the World really made Zhu Jianyan, Emperor Xingdao of the Ming Dynasty, the King of the World... at least in name for a period of time!
According to Zhu Zhongshu, the title of "King of the World" achieved by Emperor Xingdao Zhu Jianyan is undoubtedly the highest achievement achieved by all feudal rulers in history and the highest peak in the history of human feudalism!
For the first time, all of humanity, at least most of it, was nominally governed by a single leader.
Although this leader did not issue many orders and did not ask for any property from the "vassals" who nominally accepted his jurisdiction, the actual rule was almost non-existent. But in subsequent history, no country can deny that it was once part of a human empire!
No human being can deny that all human beings were once a whole!
No human being even doubts that at some time in the future, all human beings will definitely come together again!
Because after the end of Emperor Xingdao's "human unification" experiment until the 21st century, the idea of reunifying mankind and forming a global government has always existed in the political arena of various countries around the world.
Moreover, these politicians who advocated the unity of mankind also made several attempts to reunify through peaceful or non-peaceful means.
Maybe this is the legacy left to all mankind by Zhu Jianyan, the King of the World!
The series of wars that took place in Europe, Africa and America (New Zealand) in the two to thirty years from the end of the 18th century to the beginning of the 19th century were also called the "First World Unification War" by later historians.
"The First World Unification War..." Zhu Yaofei looked at the title on the tablet and couldn't help but frowned, "There was a first time, could there be a second and third world unification?" War? All mankind is really..."
And the cauldron of this world unification war seems to fall on Zhu Cixiang in the final analysis!
How can I afford such a big pot?
After sighing a few times, Zhu Yaofei had no choice but to continue browsing.
The First World Unification War was actually funded by the Ming Empire, and the Eastern Roman Empire, the Russian Empire, the Kingdom of Prussia, and other European monarchies that nominally joined the Celestial Alliance sent troops to besiege the world of the Roman Republic. Sex wars.
It is said to be a world war because soon after the siege of the Roman Republic began, the war spread to North Africa and Western Asia.
North Africa was basically a province of the Roman Empire. After the revolution broke out in the mainland, these provinces all sided with the Bourbon dynasty of Western Rome and paid allegiance to Louis IV who later fled to Alexandria.
Therefore, after the metropolitan government of the Roman Republic repelled the first round of intervention forces, it sent their most capable general, Napoleon Bonaparte from the Italian province, to lead an expedition to Egypt.
There is no doubt about Napoleon's military ability, and the Roman army that has been baptized by the Republican Revolution is also very powerful. It quickly defeated the Roman Imperial Army in Egypt, and also entered the eastern coast of the Mediterranean under the rule of the Ottoman Empire, and fought all the way to Near Asia Minor, the Ottoman Empire was forced to sign a treaty withdrawing from the Celestial Alliance and paying huge sums of money.
While the war spread to Asia and Africa, riots also broke out in the Americas!
The troubles in America were, of course, caused by the American Federation that dragged down the Western Roman Empire... Although this country fought an independence war with the Western Roman Empire, the post-war American Federation was not spiritually Completely independent. Especially after the Western Roman Empire turned into the Roman Republic, the leaders of the American Federation regarded the republics across the Atlantic as their allies, and also proposed the formation of a federation.
Their suggestions were quickly supported by the Roman Metropolitan Government in Paris, and they granted the American Federation the power to "liberate the province of New Spain." They then sent troops to attack the province of New Spain from land and sea, and received the support of the New Spanish Republicans. support.
The Governor-General of the Roman Province of New Spain, who was still the emperor of the Western Roman Empire, asked for help from the Sky Alliance forces in America. The United States and Qingguo also responded immediately and sent reinforcements to Mexico City.
Just like that, the war started in America!
Unlike Napoleon Bonaparte's victories in Africa and West Asia, the American Federation's attack on the province of New Spain suffered a disastrous defeat. Moreover, the United States of New Zealand took the opportunity to send troops to Louisiana, and once they came to New Rome.
Facing the attack of the powerful United States of New Zealand, the United States could only seek help from the other two powerful countries on the North American continent, the United Kingdom of New England and the Great Soviet Khanate of Indians.
Of course, Henry IX of the United Kingdom of New England and the Golden Khan of the Great Soviet Khanate did not want to see the United States of New Continent become dominant, so they formed an alliance and sent troops to attack Huaizhou and Liaozhou (located northwest of Huaizhou, covers a vast area). So the war started in North America!
In addition to the Commonwealth of America, the United Kingdom of New England, and the Great Soviet Khanate, the new Roman Republic also had two other key friends, the Republic of England and the United Provinces of the Netherlands—these two countries were not allied with the Roman Republic. It still pretends to be neutral, but in fact it is the arsenal and creditor of the Roman Republic.
Without the secret support of these two countries, the Roman Republic, even with Napoleon, would not have been able to persist until the 19th century...
But by 1804, the Western Roman Empire was back. But what came back was not the Western Roman Empire of the Bourbon dynasty, but the Western Roman Empire of Napoleon Bonaparte dynasty!
I don’t know whether it was the inertia of history or Napoleon was also influenced by the “idea of unification of the Celestial Empire”. After becoming the emperor of Western Rome, he was not satisfied, but began to seek the “Napoleonic version” of the road to unifying the world!
According to Napoleon's plan, if you want to unify the world, you must first unify Europe, and if you want to unify Europe, you must first unify Eastern and Western Rome!
So soon after taking on the purple robe and becoming the Roman emperor, Napoleon began a war against the Eastern Roman Empire.
At this time, the Eastern Roman Empire was actually a loose federation. Members include the Kingdom of Greece, the Kingdom of Serbia, the Kingdom of Albania, the Kingdom of Croatia, the Kingdom of Austria (originally the Grand Duchy), the Kingdom of Hungary, the Kingdom of Wallachia, the Kingdom of Bulgaria, the Kingdom of Crete, the Kingdom of Cyprus, and the Kingdom of Montenegro. An electorate and crown realm of Constantinople.
According to the constitution of the Eastern Roman Empire, the emperor would be elected from each other by the eleven elector kingdoms based on the principle of one country, one vote!
The elected person will be able to own the crown territory of Constantinople during his term (in principle, there is no retirement, and must hold this job for life, until death), and can also use the imperial taxes paid by various countries to form an army and government.
Of course, such a loose empire could not withstand the Napoleonic version of the Roman Empire, which had gone through the storm of revolution and repelled several rounds of international intervention forces!
When the Eastern Roman Empire interfered with the Western Roman Revolution, it joined the Celestial Alliance and became an ally of the Ming Empire... So the Napoleonic War became a battle of "who will unify the world" from the very beginning. War of the Worlds!
