Rakshasa wants to be Rome!
A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, and a white-skinned country in the European civilization circle that doesn't want to be a Roman is probably not a good country, right? Except, of course, Greece. The cards of ancient Greece are no worse than those of ancient Rome.
And for a country called Rakshasa, which is considered barbaric among barbarian countries, what could be more glorious for them than becoming Rome?
After becoming Rome, those old European countries that looked down on others no longer dared to look down on the Rakshasa people. They should be the Romans! Except for the Italians who can be said to be descendants of Rome, the rest of these old Europeans are just various barbarians. Do you still dare to look down on Rome (Rakshasa)?
After Zhuge Weidao heard what Nicholas I said, he still seemed a little confused, so he asked: "Nikolai Pavlovich, you mean that the Rakshasa Empire will change its name after capturing Constantinople. The Eastern Roman Empire?”
Nicholas I shook his head and said: "There is no 'East', only the Roman Empire!"
Grand Duke Mikhail explained: "Count, after the Western Roman Empire fell to the barbarians, the official name of the Eastern Roman Empire was the Roman Empire! But now, there is no Western Rome, and we will recover Constantinople After Dimburg, become the only Rome in the world!”
"The only Rome?" Zhuge Weidao turned to look at Nicholas I's queen and asked in Rakshasa language, "Your Majesty the Queen, your father Frederick William III doesn't want to become the Holy Roman Emperor, right?"
Alexandra Fiorovna shook her head, smiled and replied in fluent Chinese: "Count, the Holy Roman Empire is neither holy, nor Roman, nor an empire. It is a complete tragedy, which the Germans have to endure. There are too many responsibilities and sufferings that should not be borne by them. So Prussia will not attempt to revive the Holy Roman Empire, Prussia will only become the Austrian Empire. After Prussian troops occupy Austria, Croatia, Bohemia and Austrian Poland."
"That's all?" Zhuge Weidao asked, "What about Hungary? Croatia is part of the Kingdom of Great Hungary, right? After Prussia won Croatia, it didn't care about Great Hungary?
In addition, does Prussia really no longer care about the territory in the northern part of the Apennine Peninsula? There are still a large number of Germanic people living there! "
In the territory of the Austrian Empire, the Grand Duchy of Austria, which belonged to the German Confederation, was a rather weak leader. Its military power was not strong and its industry was not satisfactory. Bohemia has always been the industrial center of the empire because of its rich coal and iron resources. The largest territory under the empire is the Kingdom of Great Hungary. This country includes Croatia, Slovakia, and Transylvania (the hometown of vampires). From the map, it looks really big, larger than Austria and Bohemia. Much bigger!
Because of its large territory and large population, Hungary has always had a high status in the Austrian Empire. In the early days when the Holy Roman Empire was still there, the Hungarians also played the role of saviors of the Habsburgs. During the War of Austrian Succession, the Habsburg dynasty was about to end. However, the Habsburg family’s beautiful young lady Archduchess Maria Theresa went to Hungary and gave a sensational speech to win over a group of Hungarians. The sympathy of the "good-looking" uncle immediately mobilized an army of 50,000 to help the Habsburg dynasty turn the tide - Maria Theresa looked like her mother, and it was up to the Habsburg family to Various branches have lost their heirs due to incest, so her father can finally choose a beautiful woman to be his wife. Otherwise, Maria Theresia would have gone to Hungary with a long face and a big chin like the Habsburg family, and the country might have perished! But this time, because Emperor Franz Joseph inherited the long face of the Habsburg family from another generation, he also had a pair of blistered eyes, and his appearance did not meet the requirements of the Hungarian aristocracy, so he was almost finished now.
However, Friedrich William III may have known that his appearance also did not meet the requirements of Hungarians, so he had no idea about Hungary. I just want to take over Croatia, which is under the name of Hungary, in order to gain a larger exit to the Mediterranean.
“Prussia has no claim to Hungarian lands except Croatia,” said Alexandra Fiorovna. “The Hungarian nobles can decide for themselves the future of their country if the Hungarians elect members of the Habsburg family. Prussia will not object to becoming king."
Zhuge Weidao nodded and understood - Prussia and Rakshasa had reached an agreement to establish a Hungarian Kingdom without an outlet ruled by the Habsburg dynasty on the Balkan Peninsula as a buffer state to prevent the German Empire from getting too far away from the king. Constantinople is too close.
This arrangement is indeed very Rakshasa!
"As for the Austrian territories in northern Italy," Alexandra Fiorovna said, "it is expected to fall into the hands of Napoleon II. According to a secret agreement between my father and Napoleon II, he can get the Habsburg All the dynasty’s territories in Italy can also be annexed to the papal territories, and an Italian republic can then be established.”
"Nikolai Pavlovich," Zhuge Weidao looked at Nicholas I, "Aren't you opposed to the carving up of the Austrian Empire?"
"No objection!" Nicholas I took a sip of vodka and said with a smile, "Emperor Franz Joseph has forgotten who saved his empire from the iron heel of Emperor Napoleon. So he is not the real Rakshasa. Friends! Moreover, unless the Ming Dynasty is prepared to use force to help restore the Bourbon dynasty, we will not and have no ability to maintain the orthodox order of Europe alone."
Nicholas I had obviously learned well and knew how much he weighed. He did not dare to blame the Central and Western Europe for the gossips unless the Ming Dynasty took him with him. Even if he sent troops to Constantinople this time, he had to ask the Ming Dynasty first. support.
After hearing Nicholas I's statement, Zhuge Weidao smiled again and said: "Nikolai Pavlovich, we have received reliable news. After Napoleon II seizes northern Italy and the city of Rome, he will first establish a The Italian Republic led by the Napoleon family will later promote the merger of the Italian Republic and the French Republic!
The combined country would be called the Roman Republic. In other words, in the future, there will still be two Romes in the world. One was the Roman Empire and the other was the Roman Republic. There is a German Empire sandwiched between the two Romes. It is really a very stable pattern! "
After hearing what Zhuge Weidao said, Nicholas I and Grand Duke Mikhail both looked a little ugly.
It is only natural that Napoleon II wanted to create Rome!
He was born a king of Rome. Without Rome, where would he be a king? So it would be okay for him to create a Roman state. The worst case scenario was the Eastern and Western Empires, which Nicholas I could also accept.
But he should never establish a Roman Republic!
Because this Roman Republic was not only republican, but also orthodox! Who in Europe could be more orthodox than the Roman Republic? Not even the Roman Empire!
Compared with the Roman Republic, the emperors and kings of various European countries were all rebellious officials and traitors...
