January 7, 1909.
On this day, Brazil defeated Venezuela. Not only did it occupy a large territory, it also turned Venezuela into a protectorate and Brazil's sphere of influence.
The Treaty of Caracas, a treaty signed between Brazil and Venezuela, spread rapidly across the country.
People in Rio de Janeiro, the capital of Brazil, heard the news immediately through loudspeakers and news broadcasts.
The contents of the treaty excited the people of the royal capital, and they were proud of the country's victory.
For a time, various celebrations began to be held in Rio de Janeiro, the capital of Brazil, and people participated in them one after another to express their happiness and joy.
Not only the people at the bottom are happy and joyful, but the intellectuals and capitalists of the Kingdom of Brazil are also excited and excited.
Many people began to associate the Kingdom of Brazil with the United States, and Venezuela with Mexico.
With the complete victory of this war, many people believe that after the Kingdom of Brazil defeats Venezuela, it will undergo reforms and the Kingdom of Brazil will become a great power like the United States.
In short, after the signing of the Treaty of Caracas, the whole country of the Kingdom of Brazil felt inspired and was proud of the Kingdom of Brazil's victory. They firmly believed that Brazil would get better and better from now on.
When the whole country was celebrating, Tangning should have participated, but he had no time at all.
Because after the treaty was signed, the British ambassador asked to meet with him and discuss some matters.
Britain is the world's most powerful country, and the British ambassador requested a meeting. Of course, Tangning did not dare to delay. After all, Britain in this era has a strong voice, and he did not want to cause misunderstandings over trivial matters.
Tang Ning met with the British Ambassador. The British Ambassador's request put him in a dilemma, because this matter would obviously offend the United States.
The Kingdom of Brazil can dominate South America, but the gap with the United States is too big. It is too early to offend the United States at this time.
Tang Ning knew that if Brazil wanted to rise, it would eventually become an enemy of the United States, but it was obviously not now.
14:35, inside Fuxing Palace.
"Your Majesty the King, Britain hopes that you can take over Dominica on the Spanish island and turn it into a Brazilian territory?"
After some hypocritical politeness, British Ambassador Cameron got into the real intention of this meeting, the issue of Dominican ownership.
Cameron had spoken a lot of words before, touting how wise he was as a king, advocating the expansion needed for the rise of Brazil, and expressing Britain's support for the reform of the Kingdom of Brazil. He sincerely hoped that Brazil would become a double power in the Americas and have an equal status with the United States.
One set after another of Humphrey's English words, he drank a lot of ecstasy soup, which completely obscured Tang Lin's consciousness and made him feel confused.
Of course, since Cameron preached about the rise of Brazil, the friendship between Britain and Brazil, and Britain's strong support for Brazil, Tangning must work hard to cooperate with his performance.
Perhaps, because Tang Ning cooperated so well with his performance, Ambassador Cameron felt that he had been tricked, so he showed the true intention of this meeting.
The United Kingdom wants to add Dominica to Brazil's territory, and Ambassador Cameron hopes that the wise King Pedro III can accept it.
"Mr. Cameron, although you have said so much, Dominica has nothing to do with our Brazil."
Tangning was not a hack. She could be coaxed and cooperated with the performance. If she fell into the trap, it would be bad. She quickly and skillfully shied away from the requirements of this deceptive trap.
"If I remember correctly, Mr. Ambassador, Dominica is an independent country and has no historical relationship with our country. Our country has no legal basis to rule it."
Are you kidding me?
Dominica, this country, is within the sphere of influence of the United States, the hegemon of North America. The Kingdom of Brazil extends its hand to it, isn't it going to be a shame?
In the Kingdom of Brazil, Tang Ning, the king, still doesn’t know what the current weight is.
At first glance, Brazil is the hegemon of South America, and the United States is the hegemon of North America. They feel that they have equal status.
But the fact is that the difference between the two is equivalent to that of a peacock and a parrot. One is really beautiful and the other is fake. They are not on the same level at all.
"Your Majesty the King, Brazil does not have the legal principles of Dominica, but what if Dominica is willing to join Brazil?"
Cameron did not expect that he could convince the king who had regained the Kingdom of Brazil at a young age with just one word. He still had a backup plan.
“Nimini, the country is impoverished, warlords are at war, and the people are in dire straits.
The Kingdom of Brazil, as the largest country in Latin America, has a prosperous country, a strong people, and a stable political situation. The Dominican people hope to join your country and escape from the sea of suffering.
We in England hope that your gracious Majesty will accept them. "
The Dominicans are indeed miserable. They are miserable now, and their history is also very humiliating.
In 1492, the Spanish entered Dominica. In 1496, the Spanish established the permanent settlement of Santo Domingo and officially began their rule, entering the Spanish colonial period. From 1795 to 1809, it was invaded and occupied by France, and then fell into a dispute with Spain.
In November 1821, Dominica declared independence, but not long after, in February of the following year, it was occupied by Haiti, the first black country in the Americas. It was really sad, being bullied by the black uncles of Haiti, but unfortunately there were no celery uncles at that time, and Dominica was ravaged during this period.
On February 27, 1844, Dominica broke free from Haitian control, declared independence for the second time, and established a republic. But not long after, in 1861, it was occupied again by the Returning Regiment, Hu Hansan, and Spain.
In 1865, Spain was strongly condemned by European countries and the United States and was forced to withdraw from the Dominican Republic. However, after freedom, the Dominican Republic did not live a good life.
Since the Spanish left Dominica in 1865, several major cities in this independent country have been in a state of widespread paralysis and destruction, and the entire country has been divided into several separate kingdoms. José María Cabral controlled most of Barahona and was supported in the southwest by the mahogany exporter Baez, while rancher Guillermo formed an alliance with some former generals in the southeast; Gray Gorio Luperon controlled the northern coast.
From Spain's departure to 1879, there were 21 changes of government and at least fifty revolts. In just 14 years, the warlords were even less reliable than Country M, and it set a precedent for the small countries in the future.
In the course of these conflicts, two major political parties began to form. The Red Party represented the interests of southern ranchers and the Blue Party represented the interests of tobacco growers and merchants. The Red Party mainly seeks to merge with the great powers while the Blue Party mainly seeks freedom and is nationalist.
In 1869, the then President of the country, Baez, sought the consent of President Ulysses Simpson Grant of the United States, hoping to incorporate Dominica into the United States and allow the United States to repay the US$1.5 million in foreign debts of many countries at the time. President Grant believed that this move would allow blacks who had been freed from slavery in the South to have a free place to live without being threatened by southern whites. However, in the end, the U.S. Senate voted against it and failed.
How sad, even traitors can't sell it, and the United States doesn't want it.
It can be said that Dominica is a hellish country. The bizarre current situation of those small countries in later generations is now happening in Dominica, and the magical reality has been staged in advance.
This country has no national consciousness at all. It has to wait until Uncle Celery comes into the world as a macho man to reshape this country.
"Mr. Cameron, I understand the tragic history of this country that you told, and I sympathize with them."
You can let the British ambassador speak eloquently about the suffering of the Dominican people, but Downing just won't fall for it.
“However, we in Brazil have no legal basis for this chaotic country and are really not interested, and I have to be responsible for my country.
Personally, I am willing to donate some money to the Dominicans, but at the national level, I think the Brazilian people are not willing for me to accept these people.
The Kingdom of Brazil is not rich. The country is undergoing reform and there is no extra experience and wealth to support them. "
