"Near the islands of Bali, there is East Timor controlled by Braganza. It is just right to give it to us."
Downing analyzed the potential reasons why his father acquired these islands to Charlotte and Helen.
“Our Miguel Braganza royal family, as everyone knows, is half German aristocracy.
Our family has very good relations with the nobles of the German Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Kingdom of Belgium, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and the Duchy of Luxembourg, and we have married each other.
Now our Miguel family has also returned to Portugal, our relationship with the Gotha royal family has become deeper, and our relationship with the UK is also very good.
Portugal is a long-term ally of Britain. No one will object to giving small islands like Bali to us.
After all, not everyone dares to take over this place now, but if you want to offend the German royal family, who is not an acquaintance? "
As Tangning said this, she couldn't help but laugh.
"My father is a bad guy in the aristocratic circle.
After all, this place has been in a stalemate, which is not good for Britain, France, Germany, or the Netherlands, but no one takes the blame, which makes all parties very embarrassed.
Our old father, it’s time to take over and all parties can step down. "
"So that's it!"
Charlotte and Helen suddenly understood.
East Timor and the Lesser Sunda Islands, this place is very critical, very close to Australia.
What Australia fears most in the East is actually not the Eastern Kingdom, but Indonesia, which was independent from the Dutch East Indies.
Although Indonesia is insignificant in the eyes of major countries, its status on the world stage is not low.
Indonesia has a large land area and a poor economy, but it is considered a leading figure among ASEAN, Southeast Asia, and non-aligned countries.
Indonesia and Australia are very close, and they act very domineeringly and have a strong desire to expand. East Timor was swallowed up by him as soon as it became independent from Portugal.
This move frightened Australia.
Australia has a population of over 20 million. Although Indonesia is not that great, where is its size?
With a population of over 100 million and a territory of over a million, although the economy is worse than Australia, the overall sense of oppression is still strong.
You can say that.
Australia has always been paying attention to Indonesia, fearing that he would do anything extraordinary, and also fearing that there would be major turmoil in this country.
Fight, can't fight!
Scold, don’t dare to scold loudly!
This green forest country with a population of 100 million is really in trouble. There is a wave of refugees, and the first country to be affected is Australia.
Who made Australia so rich? ?
Australia is concerned about Indonesia, and Indonesia is also greedy for Australia. East Timor, caught in the middle, is the stage of conflict between the two parties.
Although East Timor is rich in resources and surrounded by a lot of oil, Indonesia does not lack oil and Australia does not lack resources. The confrontation between the two countries in this place is not at all superficial resource interests.
East Timor's resources are not a trigger at all, because the fate of this place is a matter of strategic direction for the two countries.
Today, the Lesser Sunda Islands, including East Timor, belong to Braganza. Tangning is also attracted by Australia, a God-given land.
If you are not moved, there is nothing you can do!
Tang Ning, if you admit that you are despicable, you are greedy for Australia.
However, we can't blame Tang Ning for not being human.
Australia, this makes everyone’s heart beat!
With East Timor in hand, Tang Lin didn't pay much attention to it before. He had always focused on Brazil and Europe, but now he has time to do it.
Today's Australia is very weak, and now is the time to intervene.
Australia currently has only six regions: New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia and Tasmaria, and the population is even pitifully small.
In 1914, before the outbreak of World War I, Australia had a population of just over 4 million.
Although Brazil and the greater Algarve now have a population of over 30 million under the control of the Tangning family Braganza, they are also vast and sparsely populated.
With a large area of land that has not yet been developed and a lack of population, it is unrealistic to plan for all of Australia.
What's more, the British and Australians are not stupid either. It's really difficult to control them.
Braganza, which onion? It is also worthy of plotting against the whole of Australia.
However, Tangning doesn't need the whole of Australia, and she doesn't have the ability to ask for it all.
In Australia, the population center is in the east, while the essence of mineral resources is in the west, which has always been sparsely populated.
In later generations, Western Australia, the Northern Territory and Western Australia that broke away from South Australia, had a population of less than 3 million in the 21st century.
In the current era, South Australia plus Western Australia have a population of over 300,000.
A mere 300,000 people, occupying such a vast western area, seemed to Tang Ning to be very unworthy.
Virtue is not worthy!
Naturally, the virtuous will live there!
Tang Ning was not talented, but she thought Braganza still had some capital.
Western Australia, South Australia, and Mastania were really poor in this era.
These three states have always been looked down upon by the eastern states of Victoria and New Wales, calling him a vampire and a drag monster.
Western Australia is the focus of insults from the two state capitals, Sydney and Melbourne, because they are not bordering each other, and the insults are particularly enjoyable.
Western Australia, in protest, also voted to secede from the Australian Federation. The votes were counted, but in the end they still did not secede.
Because of poverty!
Western Australians are poor and have short ambitions. In this era, they really rely on the food from the east. They can be arrogant, but if they really want to separate, forget it.
In later generations, Western Australia became rich, but it was even more difficult to leave. With such a big mine, the east could still let you leave.
Western Australia and South Australia, with a population of 300,000, are still places where people are discriminated against.
Tang Ning believed that it would be possible to squeeze in a small number of people and immigrate here, and then it would not be difficult to influence and control the place through some means.
By the time of World War I, Tang Ning and all the powerful countries were busy encouraging these two poor places to become self-reliant. It should be easy to think about it.
The eastern and western parts of Australia are obviously at odds from the beginning to the end. In fact, they are a team-up, driven by some social elites and have no basis in public opinion.
In the West, it is not difficult to stand on its own feet, as there is a public base in Australia, while in the UK it is easier, as long as it does not break away from the UK.
Didn’t you see that Newfoundland, a small place like that, was financially bankrupt and had no choice but to sell itself into slavery in Canada with the help of the British?
For Western Australia to stand on its own feet, the most difficult thing is that it is poor, which makes its bones weak. It is scolded by the east and dares not to stand alone.
Today, in Western Australia, oil, coal, iron ore, copper ore, silver ore and other mineral reserves have not been discovered and developed on a large scale.
The only thing that can be obtained is a gold mine, but this is nothing in Australia!
In Australia, there are particularly many gold mines in the eastern part of the country. Melbourne is known as Jinshan, and its direct counterpart is San Francisco, which all relied on Jinshan to make their fortunes.
Don’t talk about the gold mines in Western Australia. If you want to talk to the east with this little capital, you can go where you want!
If you have the ability, don’t shout slogans, and really be independent!
Obviously Western Australia at this time does not have that ability.
Australia is really a resource-rich place. Whether it is in the east or west, the resources are actually quite rich.
Western Australia will become world-famous in the future because it has huge amounts of high-quality iron ore.
Before the discovery of high-quality iron ore, Australia was an iron-poor country with only a few small iron ores in the east, which were listed as strategic resources.
The reason why Western Australia turned around was because of its strategic resource of iron ore.
The Portuguese immigrated to Western Australia, and Braganza controlled Western Australia. It was really not too simple. Tangning was very easy to operate.
Australia is a country of immigrants. The main population comes from Western and Southern European countries, and it has always encouraged Europeans to immigrate here.
What is the relationship between Portugal and the UK?
500 years old man!
Now Portugal is poor and its people are very poor, which is very famous in Europe.
The Portuguese can't survive, so hundreds of thousands of people immigrate to Australia. Is that okay?
The Portuguese want a place to go, Australia is short of people, and immigrants come there. This is a win-win for all parties, right?
Western Australia, South Australia, the bitter east has been here for a long time!
As a philanthropic person, Tang Ning has the means to make them rich. He only needs to open a few companies there to bring wealth to the local area.
There is no need to develop iron ore, it is too dangerous.
The development of iron ore will make Australia completely attach importance to the west, causing them not to let go.
Based on Tang Ning's knowledge, wouldn't there be some means to make hundreds of thousands of people rich? Is it difficult?
Western Australia, South Australia and Western Australia actually lack a market.
The mineral and animal husbandry exports in the west were being suppressed by the more numerous people in the east. Now Tang Ning decided to bring some people to help.
Western Australia!
The royal family of Braganza brings sunshine to you!
