For this part of Brazil, Marin's psychology is very complicated. It stands to reason that Brazil is a very good colony, and Marin should not give it up.

However, it was in the absence of a better alternative that Brazil was the best colony. Now, Marin has North America, and Brazil has become a piece of chicken ribs, and it is a pity to discard it if it is tasteless......

The most important thing is that Marín does not have that much population to develop Brazil...... And this is the main reason why Marin is unwilling to give up Brazil.

To develop North America, Marin feels that there is a serious lack of population, where is the surplus population to develop Brazil? Although Brazil is very good, it is too far away from the mainland and it is not convenient to control.

Originally, the reason why Portugal controlled Brazil was because Portugal was really close to Brazil. But for the North Sea countries on the coast of the North Sea, Brazil is far away.

However, Marin also knew that if he gave up Brazil and let Brazil sit there for a long time, Spain or Portugal would definitely covet it. So, he thought about it and felt that Brazil could not be wasted.

It just so happened that this time Marin planned to distinguish the civil and military officials of the Beihai Kingdom, and strengthen the civil authority, and also planned to recruit a large number of civilian-born students as civilian officials. But in this way, the interests of the nobles were greatly infringed.

Although the nobility of the Beihai Kingdom was the weakest class of the nobility unlike other European countries (mainly the slaughter and purge of the old nobles by Marin during the founding of the country), their strength should not be underestimated. In other countries where the nobility had not been purged, the nobility banded together, and the king had to give in.

And although the nobles of the Beihai Kingdom were not enough to confront Marin because of Marin's early massacre. But Marin also saw that with the stabilization of the domestic situation, the strength of the nobility was also recovering and increasing.

If they don't give enough benefits, even if these nobles compromise temporarily, they will definitely break out one day in the future. Therefore, Marin needs to make the nobles feel at ease and obedient, and after beating the stick, dates must be given, and they must be given enough and sweet......

Then, Brazil, a place that Marin loved and hated, came to life......

Brazil is huge, there's no doubt about that. Brazil is rich, and that doesn't have to be said. Of course, compared to Argentina, the best part of Brazil is actually the southeast coast. Like the Amazon region, it's better not to mention it.

But even in the southeast, the scale of the territory is a little scary - not to mention, just talk about the smallest state in Brazil in the future, that is, the state of Rio de Janeiro, where the city of Rio de Janeiro is located, the smallest state in Brazil, also has 43,000 square kilometers!

What is the concept of 43,000 square kilometers? As big as the Kingdom of Denmark, one of the European powers (before it was divided by Marin)!

Just this place, Marin can cut it into 10 pieces and divide it into 10 big nobles. Each family's territory of more than 4,000 square kilometers is really not small......

The state of São Paulo is even larger, with an area of 248,200 square kilometers, much larger than the British island, and can be divided into a bunch of dukes and earls. It is not weak to build a country on its own. Of course, if you have a sufficient population......

As for the 280,000 square kilometers of Rio Grande do Sul, the 95,000 square kilometers of Santa Catarina, and the nearly 200,000 square kilometers of Paraná, although there are many plateaus, it can be used to reward the soldiers under them, which is definitely more than enough!

This adds up to almost 860,000 square kilometers of land, and the climate is also good, how many soldiers are not enough to be rewarded?

Use a bunch of good-looking wasteland to send the soldiers, this business is not too cost-effective! Of course, Marin will also give them some small estates in the local area, so as not to be too poor before their territory is developed......

This is the advantage of having more land, a huge Brazil, saying that if you give it to people, you will take it out and reward people, who can be so arrogant?

Moreover, if you get the fiefdom of these generals to Brazil, you will not be afraid that Portugal and Spain will dare to covet it. Offending these generals is much more serious than offending civilian officials. To rob the general's land, you must be mentally prepared to be crusaded......

Anyway, Schwarz, Kahn, Wagner, Steindorff and others were fooled and lame by Marin. When they heard that Marin was going to reward each of them with thousands of square kilometers of land with a good climate, their mouths were watering.

Thousands of square kilometers! You must know that the fourth column of East Welfare, the foundation of Marin's country, is only more than 3,400 square kilometers. Marin promised them about 5,000 square kilometers of territory each, which simply turned them upside down......

Of course, they don't know geography and haven't been to Brazil. If they knew that 5,000 square kilometers was just a small part of the vast Brazil, they wouldn't be so excited.

However, for individuals, 5000 square kilometers is really a lot. This is almost equivalent to the area of a prefecture-level city in later generations, think about it, a prefecture-level city is your family...... This is the real local tyrant......

These people are the core generals under Marin, so they will give so much. There are not so many other subordinate generals. The average general will give one or two thousand square kilometers of land, which is about the same.

Moreover, this is not less, it is equivalent to the size of a county. Left in Germany proper, it is possible to establish a large vassal state. For example, the Duchy of Cleaver, which is said to be a principality, has an area of only 1,800 square kilometers......

Of course, the Duchy of Cleaver, located on both sides of the Rhine, is the most fertile agricultural land and cannot be compared. And the land that Marin gave to his generals must be matched with a lot of mountainous land. This is also the proper meaning, after all, what monarch would easily give away good land full of fertile plains to others?

Such good lands as the Pampas, near the Río de la Plata, the best in South America, were given to his second son, William, by Marin. The better land of North America in later generations can only be left to Caesar as the heir. Divide a Philadelphia county, Marin is not very happy. But now that the North American colonies needed Albert to manage, Marin didn't say anything. But he planned to wait for Albert to retire and give him a new fief. Of course, the territory will definitely be larger, and the climate and resources will not be bad.

It's not that Marin is reluctant to give up the land of Philadelphia, but that Philadelphia's geographical location is too important, and it belongs to the core area of the East Coast of North America. In the middle of this is a highly independent country, which is very troublesome to manage.

In the future, Marin planned to transfer Albert to Brazil as the governor of Brazil, ruling the colonies of Brazil. At the same time, in southeastern Brazil, choose the largest and best fief for Albert in exchange for the Count of Philadelphia.

Moreover, Marin is not expected to receive any taxes in Brazil in the future. Because, those noble realms will be dominions, except for military and diplomatic. Albert, on the other hand, will be the governor of these Dominions, helping to manage them. After all, those military nobles of the North Sea Kingdom could not go to Brazil to administer their territories.

Albert had a wealth of experience in colonial management, and it was a good choice for him to help manage and develop the Brazilian colony.

Of course, this was more tragic for Albert - he finally developed the North American colonies, but was kicked to Brazil by Marin to continue the development of the wild lands......

In this regard, Marin can only say sorry. It's a big deal, give more land as compensation. In addition, by that time, he was almost a king, and it was a big deal to give Albert a dukedom. As for the land, it is nothing to give him 10,000 square kilometers. After all, Brazil lacks everything, that is, no land. If the Amazon rainforest is left aside, Marin will give him 1 million square kilometers of fiefdom, as long as he has the ability to develop it......

To put it bluntly, Marin just felt that it was a pity that Brazil was not developed, and he was afraid that Spain and Portugal would be worried about it, so he used it. It just so happened that it was used to compensate the military nobles under him. At the same time, it can also be used to compensate his younger brother. That is, the land is not worth much in this era, and the subordinates may still feel that they are at a loss. But hundreds of years later, their descendants will be grateful for Marin's generosity.

You know, the price of farms in later generations is generally a few thousand dollars per hectare. Even if only 1,000 square kilometers of 5,000 square kilometers of land are developed into farms, there are 100,000 hectares, worth at least hundreds of millions of dollars. If there is a prosperous city, the land there is more valuable in terms of square meters...... Of course, only if their children and grandchildren continue to own that much land......
