It is unrealistic for any country to want to colonize another country for a long time, if in terms of stability, there are only two countries in the world that have done this in two regions, but the outcome of history is still the same. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

One was India under British rule and the other was the Philippines under American rule.

Both colonial overlords enjoyed very high treatment in their respective colonies, and the people there did not show much disgust towards them.

But this is not without reason, the British regard India as their little brother, and the Indians are also very obedient, closely following the British, pointing to the east and never going west, and even in later generations, when India wants to become independent, there are many Indians who cry sadly because of this, and hope that they can continue to accept British rule.

This is also the most bizarre part of the country of India, they are more inclined to let others colonize them, and they are more accustomed to always having a strong person above their heads to press them, but this does not mean that they are stupid, Britain is the most powerful country in the world after all, as long as Britain is in India, then India is unlikely to suffer from the aggression of other countries, from another level, in this era of great powers everywhere to loot colonies, it is not a good thing to take refuge in Britain.

As for the Philippines, it was because of the way the U.S. government ruled them, the Spaniards in the Philippines were just blindly exploiting, and finally after hundreds of years of rule, they were overthrown and overthrown, and with the decline of Spain in Europe, the Americans found an opportunity to intervene.

After the Americans came, they completely changed the style of Spanish rule, although they were also plundering the resources and wealth of the Philippines, but at least the Americans did it in and out, and they gave the Filipinos hope.

At the same time, when it comes to economic prosperity and modernization, only Hong Kong under the British rule and Singapore, which later dominated the port, can be compared with Manila in the Philippines.

The rule of the Americans, so that the Philippines quickly entered the development of modernization, where you can see the traces of Western civilization everywhere, the Americans brought them classes, brought cigarettes, brought all the unique things of the West, the Filipinos experienced the benefits of American rule, and the Americans are not bad to the Filipinos, much better than the Spaniards, so it is easy to get the trust of the Filipinos.

Later, the Japanese army occupied the Philippines, and the tyranny adopted by the Filipinos made the Filipinos hate Japan, and the Filipinos were looking forward to MacArthur leading the American army back to the Philippines, and they have been doing so, in the heyday of the Japanese army, they only occupied less than one-third of the territory of the Philippines, guerrillas were everywhere, and the Japanese army was well aware of the movements of the American army.

The Balkan Peninsula, where the political situation is already crucial, coupled with the geographical location, so it is unrealistic for any ruler to want to colonize there for a long time, they are not India and the Philippines, nor the luck of Britain and the United States, and what Wang Sirui did not expect is that the Russians would actually provoke the Balkans by their own death.

Historically, the Balkans were a powder keg and the explosion point that ignited the First World War, but now the situation in the Balkans is suddenly in turmoil, what does it mean? Wang Sirui knows better than anyone that there are too many opportunities to do things in the Balkans, and even let this conflict become a powder keg in history, igniting the smoke of World War I five years in advance.

And now that the Chinese Empire has been launched, they will try their best to go ashore as soon as possible, and then digest the occupied Russian territory, if they can let the European powers enter the water at this time, then it is equivalent to creating a few years for the Chinese Empire out of thin air.

Therefore, the situation in the Balkans must be chaotic, and the more chaotic it is, the better, and it is better to involve all the energies of the great powers and let them compete there.

"The British are cocooning themselves, they started this war in the first place, and now they want us to stop, how can there be so many good things? It is enough to drag it out with diplomatic rhetoric, and to show the Empire's concern for the situation in the Balkans. Wang Sirui said with a smile.

"The first batch of equipment is estimated to have been handed over to them, and it shouldn't be a problem to delay for two or three months, but will the British be angry when they find out about our plans?" Wang Shizhen wondered.

Although he didn't know what kind of madness Britain and France were doing, he had secretly signed a military treaty with Russia, but he secretly encouraged the Chinese Empire to go to war with Russia and weaken Russia's strength as much as possible. In the end, isn't it the strength of the Entente that is weakened?

But any diplomat with a bit of a brain would not do such a thing that makes people laugh and cry, but it is ridiculous that Britain, France, the United States and other countries have really done so, and Germany seems to have seen through everything, so it is even more supportive of this decision.

Well, now that Russia has been slumped by the Chinese Empire, the war of attrition they expected has not been fought, but has become a one-sided situation, and now it is in a hurry, but it is too late, the Chinese Empire has invested millions of combat troops alone, does this mean that it can be drawn out?

It's not bad to say that they are cocooning themselves.

"Angry? They also have to have the strength to do it. Wang Sirui smiled slightly and said with bad intentions.

"France had been defeated by Germany in the Franco-Prussian War decades earlier, and France has not yet recovered, and its influence in overseas colonies is dwindling. Britain won the Boer War a few years ago, but it was also a crushing victory, and now Britain is a headache just to expand its army to defend against Germany, not to mention the Far East to make trouble. The only thing to worry about was the navy of the British, and the other opponent was the Japanese. As long as our navy is careful, we are invincible. Speaking of this, Wang Sirui suddenly paused, his eyes slightly dazed.

"A week later, a new proposal will be added to the legislative council that anyone with more than half Chinese ancestry, regardless of where they live, will be a member of the Chinese Empire, and they will be protected by the Chinese Empire."

Historically, in 1909, the Qing Dynasty passed the "Regulations on the Nationality of the Great Qing Dynasty", which stipulates that Article 1 of Chapter 1 states that all people in the left column are Chinese nationals regardless of whether they were born in China or not, and first, those born to Chinese fathers. Second, those who were born after the death of their father and were Chinese at the time of their father's death. Third, the mother is Chinese and the father is untested or stateless.

Article 2 is that if a person born in China without any parents or stateless is also a Chinese national, the place of birth is not available and the child is found in China.

Although the Manchu Qing Dynasty's international discourse power had almost disappeared at that time, and the entire dynasty was about to fall, the promulgation of this regulation still made the Chinese people in the whole world feel uplifted, and there were scenes of running around each other and telling each other excitedly. This is also the first legal document on nationality in Chinese history, and it also means that since 1909, China, which was still part of the Qing Dynasty, has officially joined the ranks of countries with dual nationality.

The most direct consequence of this is that it greatly strengthens the sense of belonging of overseas Chinese, which is also the reason why overseas Chinese repeatedly scattered their family wealth to donate to the domestic anti-Japanese war during the later anti-Japanese period.

Originally, the proposal was intended to be presented three months later to solve the problem of immigration to Brazil, but now that the situation in the Balkans is tense, it seems that such a bill does not matter, but in reality it is not.

First of all, the first benefit is to be able to gather the Chinese people in the world and give them a sense of belonging, and the second is to take advantage of the fact that the great powers do not have much energy to manage Asia, swear the existence of the Chinese Empire, and take the opportunity to expand the empire's influence in the world. Finally, it is to pave the way for the future entry into the South Seas.

Once the bill is passed, if the Chinese in the Nanyang region are treated unfairly, and if Europe goes to war, then the Chinese Empire will have the opportunity to infect the mainland.

The rubber and copper ore in the South Seas are resources that Wang Sirui has been pitying for a long time, and he also controls the Strait of Malacca, so Wang Sirui really can't find any reason for him not to dye the Strait Ocean.

Before and after World War I, the great powers did not have much to do with Asian affairs, and Japan joined the Entente in order to get Shandong, and took the opportunity to wage war against German-occupied Shandong and occupy Shandong.

Wang Sirui knew very well that the powers, which had long been caught in the arms race, did not bother to care about the affairs of the Far East at all, although on the surface it seemed that they still had spare strength, but in fact they were just paper tigers.

Britain and France are trying their best to support Russia, and now there is a sudden change in the Balkans, on the other hand, Germany is still accelerating its military expansion, where does Britain and France get the energy? What else do you want if you don't take the opportunity to reap the benefits at this time?

That is, in the history of China in later generations, the excellent opportunity for development was delayed because of the civil war at the same time, otherwise, the War of Resistance would have been so hard? Not to mention anything else, 20 years of civil strife, but as long as it can develop steadily for 10 years, let alone 8 years of anti-Japanese war, or even three years, it will be able to drive little Japan back to its hometown in the East.

But there is no way, if you miss it, you miss it, history can't be repeated, but fortunately, the history of this world has been reversed, and the Chinese Empire under Wang Sirui is developing rapidly in all aspects, and industry and commerce have surpassed Japan and become the first power in Asia.

At the beginning, Wang Sirui still couldn't believe it, but after thinking about it carefully, he was relieved, although the Japanese developed early, but the Japanese did not have too many resources to develop, and the Chinese Empire was full of resources, and it was able to produce many people, plus the high-level leadership was in the right direction, and in less than ten years, it was reasonable to surpass the achievements of Japan's development for more than 20 years.
