After all, France is one of the traditional powers in Europe and the world, even if it has been divided by countries to divide nearly half of its territory. √∟ Top Novel, www.However, the remaining land area of France is still not small, and the population is as high as 178 million. If the French were given a few more years to recuperate, they would surely become a great power. When the time comes, what will be the attitude of the French towards the various countries that will dominate France?

So, in order to avoid possible troubles in the future, splitting France into two is the best solution. After all, divided into separate and hostile France, they must have been busy fighting civil wars in normal times, and they simply did not have the energy to pose a threat to the rest of the country. Even, in order to protect their own interests, they will desperately win over other countries.

However, the division of the territory between the two countries, France, is a big question. Everyone wants the country they support to be stronger. So, once again, there was a debate about how the remaining French territories should be divided into two parts.

Until Ali of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, who presided over the peace talks. Pasha signaled that it was time for lunch, and the nations had stopped arguing. However, after lunch, in the afternoon of the same day, the countries again argued.

"Prussia believes that the French Empire should receive Champagne-Ardennes, Franche-Comté, Rhône-Alpes, Burgundy, Auvergne, Limousin and Paris!" Otto. Feng. Prime Minister Bismarck said.

After discussion, the names of the two Frances have been decided, and the France ruled by the Bonapartist royal family is called the French Empire. And France ruled by the royal family of Orleans. It is designated as the Kingdom of France. Territorially, though. But the kingdom of Prussia was a lion's mouth. Of the remaining 11 regions in France, they asked for seven of them. Only 4 regions were left for the Kingdom of France.

The Prussians' suggestion, of course, was opposed by everyone.

"The Kingdom of Belgium believes that the Kingdom of France should acquire the Paris, Centre, Brittany, Loire, Poitou-Charente, Limousin and Champagne-Ardennes!" Belgian Prime Minister Charles. Rozhye also said.

In this way, the Kingdom of France also occupies seven of the remaining eleven regions. And, almost the best parts of the remaining territory are in your hands. In this case, the strength of the Kingdom of France will greatly exceed that of the French Empire.

And this. Nor could it satisfy the Kingdom of Prussia. The Kingdom of Prussia was also prepared to focus on supporting the French Empire after it was established, and then tie them to the chariots of the Kingdom of Prussia. If the strength of the French Empire is not strong, the effect will be greatly reduced. Therefore, they will also do everything possible to increase the strength of the French Empire.

"In this case, the remaining 11 regions of France, each with half of them!" Imperial Foreign Minister Wei Yuan said.

Everyone looked at Wei Yuan, the remaining 11 regions. Half of each? So how do you divide it? Could it be that one country accounts for five and a half? Besides, the most elite Paris region, how to distribute this? It doesn't matter if it's the Kingdom of France or the French Empire. Surely will all ask for access to the Paris region. It is the most densely populated and industrially developed region of France. Although the area is not large, it can be equivalent to two or three other large regions.

"Ladies and gentlemen. In my opinion, the Kingdom of France gains Brittany, Loire, Centre, Poitou-Charente and Limousin! And the French Empire received the Champagne-Ardennes region. Franche-Comté, Rhône-Alpes. Burgundy and Auvergne. Such a distribution is not a loss for the two countries! Wei Yuan continued.

"And what about the Paris region?" Foreign Minister of the Kingdom of Prussia Albrech. Feng. Earl Ron asked. The Paris region is the most critical, and in Wei Yuan's previous distribution plan, the Paris region was not included.

"As for the Paris region, it is also divided into two. The south of the Seine was assigned to the Kingdom of France, while the north of the Seine belonged to the French Empire. In this case, it is barely fair! Wei Yuan said.

It is almost impossible to achieve complete fairness in the distribution of such a large territory. In this way, the Kingdom of France and the French Empire are both equally divided, which is already very good. Judging from the strength of the two sides, there is not much difference. The two countries are evenly matched.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of Lord Wei's mentions?" Imperial Prime Minister Lin Zihao asked.

Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Belgium, Charles. Rozhye hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The Kingdom of Belgium thinks this distribution plan is very good!" ”

"The Kingdom of Prussia is likewise in favor of this distribution!" Prussian Prime Minister Otto. Feng. Bismarck also said.

In the absence of objections from the Kingdom of Belgium and the Kingdom of Prussia, this distribution was agreed. The next step was to get the representatives of the royal family of Orleans and the royal family of Bonaparte to accept the distribution plan. Of course, this is a difficult outcome for both the Orleans royal family and the Bonaparte royal family. Not only did France lose half of its territory, but the remaining half of its territory was divided into two parts. At the same time, they also had to bear four billion Chinese dollars in war reparations. But in the face of the strength of the victorious powers, will they still have room to resist?

"Ladies and gentlemen, then let us call the representatives of the royal family of Orleans and the royal family of Bonaparte! Next, it's time to get them to agree to this plan. However, with regard to war reparations, the Kingdom of France and the French Empire each bear half of them. You don't have any opinions, right? Lin Zihao asked.

Everyone shook their heads and said they had no objections. As a result, the victorious countries finally reached an agreement on the plan for the disposition of France.

A few minutes later, the representative of the royal family of Orleans, Adolfo. Representatives of the royal families of Thiers and Bonaparte, Emile. Olivier and Duke Walenfsky entered the conference room. Waiting for the three of them were the representatives of the victorious country with smiles on their faces, but the smiles on the faces of the representatives of the victorious countries made them feel bad in their hearts.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have agreed on what to do with France. In order to compensate for the losses that France inflicted on us in the world war, France has to pay the price. First of all, in terms of territory, France ceded Corsica to the Chinese Empire, Aquitaine, South - Pyrenees, Languedoc - Roussillon, Provence Alpes-Cte Coast and Riviera - Côte d'Azur to the Kingdom of Spain, North - Pas-de-Calais, Picardy and Normandy to the Kingdom of Belgium, Lorraine and Alsace to the Kingdom of Prussia! Imperial Prime Minister Lin Zihao said.

Although they had already learned last night that the countries would divide the territory of France, the fact that nearly half of the territory was divided by a few victorious powers still made them feel very uncomfortable. This means that it is unlikely that France will become a world power again in the future.

"Today, we have also agreed on the war reparations to be repaid by France. In this war, in view of the losses caused by France to various countries, France should compensate all countries with a total of 4 billion Chinese dollars in war reparations. Among them, the Chinese Empire is 1.6 billion Chinese dollars, the Kingdom of Spain is 1 billion Chinese dollars, the Kingdom of Belgium is 1 billion Chinese dollars, and the Kingdom of Prussia is 400 million Chinese dollars! Lin Zihao continued.

As much as four billion Chinese dollars in war reparations, so that Adolf who attended the meeting. Thiers and Emil. Olivier and Duke Valewski had very ugly faces. That's four billion Chinese dollars! You must know that before the war, France's fiscal revenue was only more than 500 million yuan. Even if they don't eat or drink, it will take them eight years to pay it back. What's more, now that France has lost half of its territory, its ability to repay is even weaker. It is estimated that they will have to replace this war reparation for one or two decades!

Although they were dissatisfied, they could not resist. After all, delegations from various countries have brought them not to listen to them, but to directly announce the results of their disposal. It's as if they're criminals being tried in court.

"Excellencies, then, who will rule France next?" Duke Valewski asked.

This question of his is the one that everyone is most concerned about. After all, although the price paid is great, as long as you can keep the right to rule France, it is worth it.

"We also have a headache about this. In the end, we decided that the royal family of Orleans and the royal family of Bonaparte would rule France together. Among them, the regions of Brittany, Loire, Centre, Poitou-Charente and Limousin, as well as the Paris region on the south bank of the Seine, were ruled by the royal family of Orléans and formed the Kingdom of France. Champagne-Ardennes, Franche-Comté, Rhône-Alpes, Burgundy and Auvergne, as well as Paris on the north bank of the Seine, were ruled by the royal family of Bonaparte and formed the French Empire! The two countries each bear half of the war reparations, which is two billion Chinese dollars! Lin Zihao said.

"What?" This result, Jean Adolf. Thiers, Emil. Both Olivier and Duke Valewski were shocked, which was completely unexpected. However, it also seems to be the best option for both sides.

Although they both wanted to gain control of the whole of France, there was no way to do so when neither of their supporters could convince anyone. So, they can only say yes.

When Adolf. Thiers and Emil. After Olivier signed the peace treaty, the peace treaty with France came into force. (To be continued......)
