901 The Orange Revolution (Part I)
In the autumn of 1814, at the National Congress of the Tang Dynasty, Hu Fakui was re-elected as president, which also meant that he would be re-elected president for the next five-year term. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoHu Fakui is a few years younger than Bai Nan, so this age can be regarded as the right time. But Hu is well aware that he is unlikely to win a third term. Even if he was not yet seventy years old at that time, the Tang Dynasty would seek new blood younger and more energetic than him to take charge of the country.
The five-year term is also enough for Hu Fakui's plan for a world war, and he has made many preparations in his first term, and the foreshadowing can be revealed. Datang's domestic economic development in the past five years has also generally maintained the rapid development of the Bainan era, the heat of national construction has not cooled, the population is still expanding rapidly, and Datang's growth almost every year will be more than half of Europe's total economic output.
And under such a disparity of power, it is impossible for the Europeans to defeat the Tang Dynasty in the war. The European countries themselves secretly knew, but they believed that Datang would not go to war against them, and their unity would also relatively increase the cost and risk of Datang's military intervention, so they judged themselves to be safe. But a miscalculation is a miscalculation, and Hu Fakui and a considerable number of Tang people have already hit Europe with their ideas.
Many people will question the productiveness of the war, but here, if the European Union falls and Datang completely turns Europe into its own subsidiary economy, then Datang will gain a huge market, second only to China and North America. And if it can break through the Warsaw system and adopt a more radical or even overseas consular trade model, then Datang will gain greater benefits.
Politically, Datang will completely dominate the global situation and become the undisputed global leader and hegemon. Hu Fakui's dream is to establish a unified global governance system with Datang as the core, although there are countries in this system, but it is different from the so-called sovereign state positioning in the other plane, and Datang, which actually rules the world, will be able to coordinate the world's resources more freely, adapt to development, and thus promote the overall progress of human society. In the final analysis, the world's economic lifeline is in the hands of Datang, and the global machinery of violence is in the hands of Datang, which is enough to ensure the achievement of this new order.
It all started with Datang's complete defeat of the EU.
After Hu Fakui was given a second term, he accelerated the planning for a world war. In the winter of 1814, in the absence of a harvest and income, Ukrainian peasants protested in Poland and Russia at the same time, shouting to protect their legitimate income, denouncing the Polish and Tsarist governments that exploited the fruits of their labor, and some even directly shouted the slogan of Ukraine's independent statehood.
Ethnic Ukrainian peasants broke away from their collective farms and went to the big cities organized by civil society to march and protest with great noise. This action also alarmed the governments of Poland and Russia, although the two countries are usually hostile to each other, and even if they have joined the European Union, there is little communication and goodwill between them, and there is even mutual wariness. But when it comes to dealing with the Ukrainians, there is a surprisingly tacit understanding between the two sides.
Although Poland is a country of national revolution, the country was established entirely by relying on the support of Datang and Germany. Some of the progressives and lower-middle-class aristocrats became members of the National Revolution, and more than a decade later they became bureaucrats again, doing the same thing as the Polish aristocracy before them. The corruption of the Polish government is very serious, and because the Chinese Revolution has always implemented an economic system that combines public and private interests, the phenomena of power rent-seeking and collusion between officials and businessmen are not uncommon in Poland, and even the people's grievances are very great.
Of course, when a country's economy is generally in a trend of development, the people can get a certain amount of benefits from economic growth, even if this share is pitifully small compared to those predators, but on the whole Polish society is still stable, and people spurn the corrupt Polish National Revolution officials, but they shout more about reform and law, and there is no radical revolutionary phenomenon.
In this context, there was even a trend of liberalism in Poland, that is, the introduction of new political parties, the separation of powers and the multi-party system based on the political achievements of the Enlightenment era. Among European countries, the United Kingdom, France, Spain and Italy are in this model, and they are developing quite well. However, this does not mean that the power of the National Revolution has weakened, because the Poles naturally look at their neighbor Germany, which is also a country with a national revolution system, but Germany has developed very well, and even surpassed Britain in terms of industrial capacity, and the popular support is relatively high. The German National Revolution was also more supportive of the Polish National Revolution, so although liberalism had a certain soil in Poland, it had not yet grown stronger.
In the final analysis, most people in the world do not look at the merits of their own political model, but rather the success or failure of other countries that have adopted this political model. On the other hand, the countries in the Soviet camp were poor, while the capitalist countries were developed, so people thought that the universal Western system was good. In fact, there are many countries that engage in the same system and do not mix well. It's just deliberately ignored. On the contrary, if the executor of a system is quite successful, such as Datang and Germany in this plane, then other countries will naturally think that this model is advanced and feasible. If you don't play well, you definitely need to find a problem in yourself.
The Polish Revolution was somewhat similar to the German Revolution in that it became rapidly nationalist over time. Unlike the nationalism of the Tang Dynasty, which promoted the integration of various ethnic groups into the Chinese nation, the Germans and Poles thought racist, and naturally thought that they were nobler and superior to other peoples. So, when the Ukrainians began to make trouble, the Polish side could not tolerate it. However, the Polish authorities did not dare to be too reckless, and European countries generally knew that in this era, the speed of information dissemination has increased significantly, and bad things will spread thousands of miles, which will bring great pressure to the Polish government. The Polish government sent a large number of military and police, but it was not too violent to disperse the unarmed Ukrainian peasants. Most of them lined up on a wall to watch the crowds marching and protesting. The military and police also did not carry weapons that were too lethal, mainly riot shields and batons. Obviously, such standard anti-riot equipment is something that Europeans have learned from the Datang cottage, which can not only avoid casualties, but also have an effect. (To be continued.) )
