Although Portugal does not control the Kingdom of Navarre in the current Imberia Peninsula, it does not prevent it from being the overlord of the Imberia Peninsula.
After all, the Kingdom of Navarre is only a small area by the sea in the northwest of the Imbilia Peninsula and cannot affect the entire Imbilia Peninsula.
The Kingdom of Navarre, apart from its enmity with the Kingdom of Castile, does not have many grievances with the other three countries, and the restoration of Navarre cannot be separated from the support of Portugal.
As a small country, the Kingdom of Navarre, from the royal family of Orleans to the citizens, is very self-aware and does not have any ambitions for hegemony. It still cherishes the present very much. They are pro-French, but they are not yet pro-French. France challenged Portugal's hegemony on the Imbian Peninsula.
At present, France and Portugal have recognized their spheres of influence. The Kingdom of Navarre belongs to France, and the Kingdom of Aragon and the Kingdom of Andalusia belong to Portugal.
France and Portugal have also completed the division of spheres of influence in all border areas around the world. There are not many conflicts of interest. On the contrary, the two sides are very complementary.
Although France is currently forced to form an Allied alliance with Britain due to the threat of the Allies, it has not forgotten to beware of Britain.
As an emerging power, Portugal has a bad relationship with the United Kingdom, but has good political, economic and diplomatic relations with France. This is equivalent to having an additional assistant to contain the United Kingdom.
At present, Portugal is the unquestionable hegemon in the Imbian Peninsula, and no one from other countries challenges it.
Although the Kingdom of Castile, which emerged after the collapse of Spain, has been striving to revive and actively expand diplomacy, it hopes to receive support from the great powers to fight against the increasing oppression of Portugal.
But this world is real, and all colonies have been lost. Although there are two seaports in the Mediterranean and Atlantic Ocean, Murcia and Cantabria, to communicate with the world, its value no longer exists.
The world powers knew very well that the fate of the Kingdom of Castile was completely in Portugal's hands.
Murcia and Cantabria are now autonomous regions, and Portugal has invested a lot here and excludes other powers from intervening in these two areas.
If the Kingdom of Castile really wants to do something to threaten Portugal, the Imbilia Peninsula will probably have two more small countries.
The Kingdom of Castile was surrounded by hostile countries and had no room for resistance against Portugal.
As the controller of the Portuguese Empire, Pedro III did not completely attack Castile, his enemy.
Instead, they began to support their industrial and agricultural economic development.
If a region is impoverished, refugees will appear. Tangning Pedro knows the dangers of refugees.
The Castile region has a population of nearly 9 million. If the economy collapses, the refugees will be the first to hit the surrounding countries of the Imbian Peninsula.
For these refugees, Portugal can't kill them. Let's get rid of them. This will affect the country's image too much.
Rather than turning the Kingdom of Castile into a mine, it would be better to turn it into a pool of blood that would nourish Portugal.
The industrial and agricultural development of the Kingdom of Castile today is better than that of the Spanish period. This situation occurs because it is advancing according to the blueprint planned by Portugal with the injection of capital from Portugal.
Today, the Kingdom of Castile's industries are mainly wool spinning, mining, primary metallurgy, and civilian shipbuilding, and its agriculture is mainly livestock farms and large farms.
Although the Kingdom of Castile is prospering in industrial and agricultural development, their national capital has suffered a major blow. Nowadays, the most active people are Portuguese compradors, whose wealth and life depend on Portugal.
Faced with Portugal's naked infiltration, the Kingdom of Castile began to slowly accept reality after seeking foreign aid to no avail.
After all, despite being obediently controlled by Portugal, the upper class still had vested interests, and they had no worries about food, clothing, and wealth, while the lower classes were the ones who suffered.
Because the state machinery is weak and the existence of large landowners cannot be suppressed, a large number of farmers have gone bankrupt in the Kingdom of Castilla, and slums have begun to appear in the city.
The emergence of slums also means the existence of a large amount of cheap labor. Comprador enterprises are thriving. Even Portugal has received a large amount of cheap labor.
The cheap labor from the Kingdom of Castile is much cheaper than the labor from Andalusia and Aragon in the Imbian League.
At the beginning, due to the existence of the "Labour Protection Act of the Imbian League", it was difficult for cheap Castilian labor to enter the Portuguese market.
The "Imbian Union Labor Security Law" stipulates that migrant workers in Portugal will be given priority in choosing Imbian Union countries and have equal wages with local workers, while migrant workers from other countries must be registered. Violators will be fined heavily, or even Close businesses.
The existence of the "Labour Protection Law of the Union of Imbilia" has dealt a blow to migrant workers. However, with the economic development of the Kingdom of Aragon and the Kingdom of Andalusia, the number of migrant workers in Portugal began to decrease, and Portugal also began to relax restrictions on migrant workers.
Today in Portugal, labor dispatch agencies, also known as intermediaries, are popular.
Migrant workers can find jobs in the Portuguese market through qualified intermediaries with legal and compliant labor dispatch agencies.
Portuguese labor dispatch agencies are not benign institutions. Although state-owned enterprises do not operate them, recognized private agencies do need to be audited, pay high taxes, and are subject to government review from time to time.
From February 22, 1913, Portugal promulgated the "Law of Equal Pay for Migrant Workers of Equal Work". From now on, when migrant workers come to the vineyard, except that they cannot enjoy Portuguese national welfare and insurance premiums, they will be paid the same as local citizens. .
The "Migrant Workers' Equal Pay for Equal Work Act" seems to care for migrant workers, but in fact it is just a superficial trick.
Because of the existence of labor dispatch agencies, migrant workers are charged a commission, and the maximum commission is 45%. The government levies a uniform 50% tax on labor dispatch agencies.
If the Portuguese government was not afraid that what labor dispatch would do would be really ugly and discredit Portugal, then the labor dispatch agency would take more than half of the commission, or even more.
The Kingdom of Castile, as a member of the non-Imbian League, is now very restricted on the Imbian Peninsula, and more and more Castilians are asking the government to join the Imbian League.
The Imbilia Alliance is a highly circulated alliance of countries. It was formed by Tangning Pedro based on the later European Union, Schengen, and NATO.
The Imbilia League consists of the Portuguese Empire, the Kingdom of Aragon, the Kingdom of Andalusia, and the Kingdom of Navana.
The Kingdom of Navarre actually only signed the "Imbrian Military Alliance". In fact, it can only be said to be a member of the Pan-Imbrian Alliance.
A total of nine treaties need to be signed for the real Imbilia Alliance.
The Portuguese Empire, the Kingdom of Aragon, and the Kingdom of Andalusia, the real Imbian Alliance countries, have all signed the "Imbian Military Alliance", "Imbian Border Integration Regulations", "Imbian Free Movement Agreement of Citizens", "Imbian "Customs Union", "Imberian Unified Market Agreement", "Imberian Unified Legal Organization", "Imberian Monetary Union"...
