"Your Highness. This is a report that we spent three months collating. ”

The chief of guard stood in front of Eder and handed the report of the Romanian economic and demographic survey to the crown prince, who was sitting behind his desk.

"Thank you, Calust." Eder took the report and replied.

The chief of the guard replied in a deep voice. "It's not hard to do things for Your Highness."

At the end of 1910, the population of Romania was 7.78 million, 790,000 more than in 1905. Of these, 110,000 are foreigners, most of whom have come to Romania to work and do business, and 90,000 of the 110,000 foreigners are of Romanian ethnicity. Transylvania accounted for 67 per cent, Bessarabia 21 per cent and the rest of the world 22 per cent. This shows how much the Transylvania region identifies with Romania.

Of Romania's 7.67 million people, 3.82 million are males and 3.85 million are females. In terms of population growth, Romania has a birth rate of 42.3 per 1,000 people, a mortality rate of 24.4 and an annual population growth rate of 1.79 per cent. This is a large increase from the 1.51% figure in 1905.

In terms of ethnicity, the Romanian ethnic group has an absolute predominance of 94%, while others such as Germans, Bulgarians, Ukrainians, Jews, etc., account for only 6%. Among them, Germans generally live in the upper middle class of society, which is the influence of Daddy Carol I. Bulgarians lived mainly in the area of Constanta, close to Bulgaria, and the number of Jews declined significantly compared to 1905, as a result of the 1906 anti-Jewish campaign led by Eder that led to the departure of more than 30,000 Jews from Romania. Ukrainians live mainly in the region near Bessarabia.

In agriculture, the area of arable land is 6.13 million hectares. Among them, 2.443 million hectares were sown with wheat, 127,000 hectares with rye, 650,000 hectares with barley, 454,000 hectares with oats, 2.37 million hectares with maize, 14,000 hectares with sugar beets and 15,000 hectares with potatoes. In particular, during the 1907 peasant revolt, the cultivated area in Romania was rapidly reduced by 21 percent, and it was not until three years later that it was restored to the cultivated area of 1906, and Eder inadvertently helped Romanian agriculture in this regard.

In 1910, Romania produced 3,206,000 tons of wheat, 256,000 tons of rye, 601,000 tons of barley, 511,000 tons of oats, 3,214,000 tons of corn, 184,000 tons of potatoes and 292,000 tons of sugar beet. In general, Romania's agricultural level is still poor, taking wheat as an example, Romania's yield per hectare is 1.31 tons, while Germany's yield is 2.13 tons per hectare, and the grain yield per hectare is 820 kg lower than Germany's, which is only 61.5% of Germany's yield per hectare. Romania still has a long way to go when it comes to agriculture.

In agriculture, Romania still needs to develop greatly, but in industry, Romania can still achieve good results. Romania now has 1.38 million workers, of which 760,000 are in mining and manufacturing, 102,000 in commerce and finance, 158,000 in transport and communications, 348,000 in services and 12,000 in other industries.

This shows the current status of the mining and manufacturing industry in Romania, in which the mining industry is mainly oil and potash mining, and the manufacturing industry is also dominated by metallurgy, internal combustion engines, and automobile manufacturing. Together with a steel plant with an annual capacity of 400,000 tons and a chemical plant mainly producing potash, this is the main large industrial plant in Romania. As can be seen here, Romania's industrialization was mainly driven by the state and the royal family. The domestic bourgeoisie is still relatively weak and can only support it first.

In terms of foreign exports, Romania's agricultural products began to decrease (mainly now in strong domestic demand), and the value of grain and other agricultural products exported was 182 million lei, a decrease of 10 million lei from the previous year, but it was still the second largest grain exporter in Europe. In Romania, the largest export of vehicles and spare parts is still the whole vehicle, which reached 267 million lei. In second place was the export of refined oil products, which rose a lot thanks to the booming automobile industry, and in 1910 Romanian exports of refined oil products and pan-biotics amounted to 213 million lei. Together with other types of exports, Romania's total exports in 1910 amounted to 956 million lei, a 2.2-fold increase from five years earlier. This is a good indication of the strong momentum of Romanian exports.

The total value of exports is strong, and the volume of imports is not ambiguous. Eder saw that in 1910 Romania's total imports were 891 million lei, a doubling increase from five years earlier. Among them, machinery and equipment occupy most of them, and the rest are light industrial products, such as textiles, leather products, daily necessities, etc.

The crown prince himself was responsible for the great development of heavy industry and the slow development of light industry in Romania.

Because of the memory of the past life and the experience of this life (the mainstream thought in the world before World War I was Darwin's theory, Mr. Yan Fu's most famous sentence is to explain that the world is the survival of the fittest. In fact, it is the same now, but the strong should pay attention to their faces. The development of heavy industry is the best way to increase national strength, and Eder paid special attention to this when developing industry. Every time a large factory is built, we try to purchase some parts from the outside world. In this way, we can absorb social funds, develop heavy industry, and also save capital and costs.

This was contrary to the prevailing view at the time. Take the Volkswagen plant and the Ford plant as examples, both of which are large manufacturers with an annual production capacity of 100,000 vehicles. Volkswagen has more than 96,000 employees and suppliers, while Ford has 87,000. Last year, Volkswagen earned a profit of 51 million lei ($9.95 million), while Ford made a profit of $12.1 million last year. It can be seen from this that in the case of high efficiency, Ford's approach can get more benefits.

Eder continued to turn backwards after reading the import and export, and the next page is the savings of residents. This is very simple, because the number is small, and the national commercial deposit in Romania is 87.14 million lei. The crown prince was a little unconvinced to continue looking, and it turned out that in 1905 it was 52.46 million lei. Looking at the average deposit of 11 lei per person in commercial deposits, Eder thought to himself that it was no wonder that the Romanian bourgeoisie could not develop, and how could it develop with this deposit. It is still necessary for the state and the royal family to do a good job in industrialization, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment.

In terms of banknote circulation, Romania is not too high, only 493 million lei. However, it is more than five years ago, when in 1905 the banknote was only 192 million lei, which was one and a half times higher. You know, this is the era of the gold standard, and every banknote needs gold to support it. This shows that Romania is gradually changing the face of poverty and backwardness.

Eder turned to the end, this is the current calculation of Romania's gross domestic product (GDP), and now the popular statistical methods in Europe are: gross national product (GDP), gross domestic product (GNP), net national product (N· NP）。 In the end, Eder chose the most listened to the gross domestic product (GDP)

The figure of 5.13 billion lei is Romania's gross domestic product, an increase of 8% over the previous year's 4.75 billion lei, and half of the 3.43 billion lei in 1905. Eder was also full of pride when he saw this number, and he lived up to his hard work. Now Romania is considered to be the first in the economy in the Balkans, and militarily Edel is not worried, with a strengthened version of the German division, except for Austria-Hungary in the Balkans, no one is his opponent.

(Sorry for the hard to check the information, the steamed buns are late.) Regarding the currency exchange, the steamed bun is the most recognized. One pound = 4.88 US dollars = 20 German marks = 25 lei, francs, lira, if you don't understand it, compare it. ）
