Regarding the Peruvian issue, Brazil and Chile quickly reached a peace agreement through the mediation of the British Empire.
Tangning was very willing to give the British Empire some face.
And Chile is also very sensible. In the case of Peru, it admitted that it was wrong, apologized to the Kingdom of Brazil and the Principality of Peru, and made compensation.
"The Beauty of the Sun and the Moon"
After the Saltpeter War, in the "Treaty of Hollows", the Tacna and Arica areas that the Chilean government had overdue jurisdiction over were now voluntarily returned to the Principality of Peru and compensated US$300,000.
In addition to these, Chile has also taken the initiative to show goodwill and jointly develop the disputed areas.
Of course, Chile was sincere in solving the problem, and Tangning was ready to appease Britain, so the Kingdom of Brazil was very cooperative.
The Kingdom of Brazil responded positively to Chile's initiative to back down.
Shelved the Tarapac area; also recognized the treaty signed during the Bolivian period and gave up the sovereignty of the Maritime Province of Antofagasta.
The United Kingdom is very satisfied with how Chile and Brazil have cooperated with its adjustments.
Chile also felt that it was not at a loss. It only paid 1 million pounds to avoid a war with Brazil, settled most of the disputed areas, and kept most of the spoils of the South Pacific War.
The area currently disputed between Chile and Brazil and Peru is the Talapac area. The two sides have chosen to shelve the dispute and now develop it together.
Britain gave advice on the final settlement of sovereignty over the land.
When the British feel that the time is ripe, it will be up to the local people to decide on their own, and under the impartial supervision of the British, a referendum will be held to decide the ownership.
The Treaty of Santiago, with the joint positive attitude of the three parties, achieved a result that everyone was happy with.
"Let the Chileans be happy first. Brazil will take back the land that belongs to Brazil sooner or later."
Tangning retracted his gaze from the border between Chile, Bolivia and Peru, and focused his attention on Bolivia and Peru.
Bolivia and Peru are now both territories of Brazil. The difference is only in form. One is directly included in Brazil, and the other is also included in Brazil but under the name of a principality.
This formal gap means that there will be no more Bolivia in the future. It is now part of the Kingdom of Brazil, while Peru still retains its superficial name, but in fact it is also part of the Kingdom of Brazil.
Arrangements for Bolivia and Peru are now on the agenda.
Bolivia has completed its land reform and Brazil has successfully received it. Now it is time to re-divide the administrative regions.
Bolivia, with millions of square kilometers, is not small, but its population is pitifully small, less than 1 million, but it is divided into several administrative regions, which is completely unnecessary.
Bolivia's population is mainly concentrated in the cities of La Paz, Cogabamba, Sucre, and Santa Cruz, while the rest are scattered in rural areas and small towns.
Re-planning administration is actually very simple.
Tangning looked at the map of Livia, took out the signal pen, and directly planned and arranged the new administrative areas according to his own ideas.
The four regions of La Paz, Cogabamba, Oruse, and Pando were merged together to form the Inca Royal State, with La Paz as its capital.
The Baja Inca region is almost the essence of Bolivia, with the fertile Lake Titicaca basin on the plateau, the fertile Cogabamba Basin, and Pando, a region close to a large tributary of the Amazon.
Merging the four districts together can effectively expand the influence of the Kingdom of Brazil in this region. Even if other regions rebel one day, it will be under control here and it will be easy to suppress the rebellion.
With the exception of the Baja Inca royal state, Downing transformed the remaining Bolivia into two ordinary states.
One is Sucre state and the other is Alto Chaco state.
The state of Sucre is composed of three districts: Potosi, Tarija, and Chuquisaco. The state capital is the original capital of Potosi and the legal national capital is Sucre.
The state of Alta Chaco consists of the San Lucos region of Alta Chaco, which belongs to the Grand Chaco range, and the Beni region of the Amazon basin. The state capital is Santa Lux.
Sucre and Alto Chaco are actually not poor. They are just one with many mountains and few basins, and the other is barren and full of grasslands and forests with few people. In fact, they are quite rich in resources, especially oil and natural gas.
Tangning will also develop these two areas, but resources are limited at this stage. We will first connect them to railways and wait for the third and fourth five-year plans to develop them.
The three states of Bolivia are divided into the Upper and Lower Inca Royal States and the Sucre State, which belongs to the newly established Western Inca Region, while the Alto Chaco State belongs to the inland Central Region.
Bolivia was administratively divided, and although Peru is now the Principality of Peru, it actually belongs to the Kingdom of Brazil.
Tang Ning is now the King of Brazil and the Grand Duke of Peru, so he is certainly qualified to divide Peru.
The problem of Peru is the same as that of Bolivia. It has a large territory but a small population. The population of Peru is only over one million, so there is no need to divide it into more than a dozen or twenty states.
For so many states, Downing cut across the board and directly integrated them into four states.
Cusque, Puno, Madire de Dios, Apurimac, Ayacucho, Arequipa, Moquegua, Tacna and Arica, where the ancient Inca capital was located.
A total of ten regions form the Royal State of Central Inca, with the state capital in Puno.
Downing originally wanted to place the state capital in Cusque, but the map location and data showed that Puno is close to Lake Titicaca and closer to the coast. The terrain is relatively gentle, so it is just right to set the state capital here.
Centered on Lima, the capital of Peru, the seven regions of Lima, Ancash, Huanuco, Pasco, Junin, Huancavelica, and Ica form the Central Inca Royal State, with the state capital Lima.
The other two states are Alta Amazonas and Maritime.
The state of Alta Amazonas consists of four regions: Amazonas, San Martín, Loreto, and Ucayali, with the state capital Pulcapa.
Maritime State consists of four states: La Libertad, Lambayeque, Piura, and Cajamac, with the state capital Piura.
Whether it is Alta Amazonia or Maritime State, these two planned states have disputes with Ecuador, namely the triangular dispute in the upper reaches of the Amazon, and the coastal areas such as Tumbes.
The original Peruvian government did not dare to be tough with Ecuador because its national strength was weak after the war with Chile, so it has been on hold.
But now it's the Kingdom of Brazil, a small country like Ecuador that has territorial disputes with it. That's great. It will have an excuse to clean up and control this country in the future.
Peru and Bolivia are divided into a total of seven states, three of which are directly under the royal jurisdiction. Brazil actually does not have the power to develop so many areas and can only choose two densely populated areas.
The Lower Inca, headed by La Paz, and the Upper Inca, headed by Lima, are undoubtedly the key development targets, and local transformation and control are also the most important.
If Brazil wants to develop the other four regions, it should go back first. The whole of Brazil needs to be developed, so it can only pick the key points first.
Anyway, after the five-year plan, there will be another five-year plan, and sooner or later these regions will have their turn.
In these sparsely populated areas, it is enough to develop a key city, and if the land is divided and farmers will go to the countryside, there will be no hunger rebellion.
It doesn't matter if you are poor, as long as you are not hungry and unreasonably oppressed, not many people will rebel.
At this stage, Brazil's task is to complete the first five-year plan. The expansion has come to an end and can no longer expand.
Uruguay hasn't gotten it back yet, so Ecuador and Colombia don't have time to care about the others.
Although these two countries are neighboring countries, Tangning didn't know much about them. Before Peru and Venezuela were conquered, the areas bordering Brazil and Colombia were covered with tropical rainforests, while Nicaragua's territory was not bordering at all.
U.K. These two places have been assigned to Brazil as spheres of influence.
But Brazil doesn't have much energy to control them. It can only send the Golden Gun Bureau over first to find out their background, and then control them in depth, and at the same time be wary of the United States infiltrating the two.
Running a country is not about playing a single-player game and expanding and expanding all day long.
