It is not unreasonable that the Chinese people are rich for no more than three generations. Because parents have already paved the way for their children, why are children still struggling? You can be a winner in life even if you're lying down......

No matter how poor he is to raise his son, his son has understood since he was a child - when the old man dies, everything will be mine, why should I work hard?

Not to mention the eldest son, even the youngest son, who will know that the old man is dead, will always give me a part, enough for me to have food and clothing for the rest of my life......

Therefore, the families of the rich in China are often rich for no more than three generations. Because, from the second generation, the fall began. The so-called aristocratic spirit of the European style pays attention to the fact that except for the boss, no one else has a future. All they have is aristocratic pride and worries about the future...... Under heavy pressure, the children of the nobility other than the boss are often more motivated. On the contrary, it is the boss who is determined to inherit the family business, and often becomes a waste of firewood......

In fact, to put it bluntly, the so-called "aristocratic spirit" is a kind of culture that makes you proud and glorious in blood, but there is no guaranteed future......

Because of the pride in the blood (in fact, self-confidence) and the worry about the future, people have to work hard. Otherwise, he will "humiliate" his origin......

To put it bluntly, it's a culture of deception – your ancestors told you that you were of noble blood. But where is the nobility? I don't have the right to inherit...... However, you have to save face...... What to do? Go and work hard...... If you don't work hard, you will lose glory and be extremely humiliating......

In this kind of flickering environment, many noble children who have no inheritance can only work hard. In ancient Europe, the most direct way to fight was to go to the battlefield and fight hard......

Therefore, too many children of the nobility died in England during World War I. Then the army became the domain of civilians. However, the common people did not agree with the colonial system of the British Empire, so after World War II, Britain itself was not happy to maintain the colonial empire. Then the British died, and its colonial empire collapsed...... This was mainly due to the fact that the colonial system was mainly in favor of the aristocracy. But they are all dead, and the civilians care more about their own rights and interests, so naturally they will not protect any colonial interests...... Coupled with the persecution of the United States, the British gave up the colony......

After all, the interests of the colonies were mainly in the hands of the aristocracy. Especially the children of the nobility who did not have the right to inherit......

In modern European colonial empires, it was often the eldest son who kept the ancestral business, and the rest of the sons went to the colonies to open up. And this is also an important reason why Europeans can control many colonies - because many noble children who are not the eldest sons need to make profits for themselves!

It is impossible to be native, because the local interests have been carved up, and they are all those eldest sons. Therefore, the nobles are not the eldest sons, so they can only go to the colony to stake their land!

Therefore, to put it bluntly, the main interests of the colonies are actually in the hands of the noble branches. Many of the officials in the colonies were also the children of nobles who did not have the right to inherit.

However, most of the children of the British nobility were killed in the First World War. This led to a sharp decline in British control over the colonies......

It was not that the strength of the British army had declined, but that the civilian officers who had been promoted had little interest in the colonies. What the? Let's let the commoners go to suppress the colonial uprising for your noble children? Suppress the Nima coin? What's wrong with me?

The army has no mind to take care of the colonies, what can Britain do? In addition, there were many people in the civilian class in parliament who were sympathetic to the independence of the colony, and Britain had no choice but to abandon the colony. As for the interests of the children of the nobles who died in battle? Who cares? When everyone is dead, let it all go up in smoke......

Of course, all this is the death of the British themselves, what kind of world war is there to do? After all the noble officers were wiped out, naturally there was no one to maintain the colonial system......

……

Marin remembered the unfortunate encounter of the British in later generations, and he was also concerned. Because, his son is going to take over the UK. So, these are important......

How to maintain a colonial empire? Marin thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a way - to reward the land to the meritorious soldiers......

However, all the soldiers who can make meritorious contributions are relatively vigorous in combat effectiveness. As for the waste wood that can't make meritorious contributions, what's the matter......

There are strong soldiers in the colony who have the interests of the colony, so if you suppress the rebellion in the colony, you will be merciless - what does it mean for the colony to be independent? Want to hack buddy's land? Look at the forehead and don't kill you!

Of course, it was inevitable that the children of the nobility would acquire land in the colonies. Because, those noble children are all officers!

Although now Marin vigorously promoted civilians to officers, sooner or later, a new military aristocracy was formed in the North Sea Congress. When the time comes, there will be a large number of children of military aristocrats. And they, naturally, will become officers, starting as ensigns.

As for the civilian class, Marin's plan is to cap the master major in peacetime. In the event of war, you can break through this cap with your military exploits......

As a monarch, you can't rely on civilians all the time, that would be putting the cart before the horse. Therefore, in the future, Marin's colonial empire will have to rely on those military aristocrats. The reason is similar to what happened to the British - the colonies have no civilian interests in them, so why should they help you maintain the colonial empire?

Of course, since the descendants should count on the children of the nobility, then the education of the children of the nobility must not be soft to avoid the emergence of the children of the nobles.

Therefore, a military school or something, it must be established. Then, the children of the nobility had to stay in the military academy and were not allowed to go home to live, only on vacation. And the military school is closed, and they naturally can't just wave it in peacetime. has been spurred to grow up since childhood, and it is not easy to become a gentleman.

……

Because of Marin's thoughts, a full-time boarding military school appeared that was difficult for the children of European nobles in later generations. This kind of military school is not only a university, but also starts in junior high school.

From the junior high school stage, the children of the nobility must enter a full-time boarding military school as long as they are not disabled. He was locked up in a military academy all day long, and he had to take care of himself, and all the supplies were distributed by the school...... Aristocratic etiquette or something, only to go home and learn during the holidays. In military schools, they will only learn how to fight......

Because of such a strict education since childhood, the children of the nobles of the Beihai Kingdom later were all war machines. Whenever there was a war, the children of the nobility enthusiastically participated in the exhibition, all of them fiercely, and the European countries could not take care of themselves......

Of course, there will definitely be an end to the reckless use of militarism. But Marin doesn't care, this model can maintain a colonial empire for at least a few hundred years. If it really comes to modern times and loses the colonial empire, it will be nothing. Anyway, hundreds of years of colonization are enough......
