Chapter 356: Overseas Distant Country: Lost Dream of the Austronesian Island (7) Restructuring of the Shami Ni
After a long journey, Gross followed Maranch's envoy to his destination, the capital of Zla, Hursan, and after a three-day rest, the envoy will negotiate between the two countries in the council chamber.
And in the three days before the negotiations, it was the time for the various delegations to play in Zla, and by the way, they purchased some local products in Zla, you must know that the Bourbon family started a thousand years ago by making special products here in Huershan, which can also make some small money at the bottom of the envoys.
However, the Bourbon family is now the most prominent family of Maranch, and the grade has come up, with Matak's current status, he will not go to join in and resell Hursan specialties to make extra money like other representatives, as a noble nobleman, Matak cares about the customs and customs of this evil empire.
As the chief representative of the envoys, Matak's face was particularly useful, and after a day's rest, Matak took a few of his cronies, including Gross, and led by the envoys of Zla, to browse Hursan with great interest, trying to find the remnants of the Manada people in the city.
"You're crazy about it, it's been nearly a thousand years since the Manada regime left Urshan, and I don't think there's anything interesting to see," Gross said.
After shopping for a long time, Matak also had to admit that he did not see any remnants of the Manada people, and the Zla people inherited and developed the Manada culture in the past thousand years, which is very different from the Manada culture of Maranqi today.
The next day, Matak and Gross went to visit Zla's Martyr's House, which is only over 300 years old, but it is the most famous building in Zla and a dream for all Zla. For the Zla people, putting the body in the martyr's place after death is the greatest glory of life and the greatest glory of the family.
You must know that every Zla who is in the martyr's place must be a heroic spirit, but the Zla heroic spirit does not necessarily have a corpse in the martyr's place.
After being explained a lot of precautions by the minister, Matak and Gross were allowed to enter the martyr's place, and before entering, Matak repeated the instructions to several cronies who had entered the martyr's place: "This is the place where the Zla people value it most, and if you anger the Zla here, even I will not be able to protect you." ”
"Naturally understood. ”
Several people, led by the attendant of the serving officer, walked into the martyr's place, and the first thing that caught their eye was the inscription placed at the entrance, which was engraved with the name of the person who was placed at the martyr's place.
The overall layout of the martyr's office is gray and white, which is particularly solemn, and people can't help but hold their breath, so that only sporadic footsteps echo in such a large building.
After saying hello to Matak, Gross left the group and walked among the martyrs on his own.
Gross walked into the center of the martyr's office, and the body placed in the center of the martyr's office was not the founder of Zla, Chavin I, but the "Holy King" Shami I, yes, the "Holy King", the Zla people gave him this title, undoubtedly mocking the "Holy King" of Manada.
Gross stood in front of the coffin of the "Holy King" Shami I, although it was daytime, because of the lack of light, the room was very dark, and the silver coffin was surrounded by candles, illuminating alone. The shadows created by the firelight flickered across Gross's face, making her look uncertain.
Looking at the body of Shami I, Gross remembered the distant Bourbon Sea, and remembered the Frison XVI who he watched grow up, but now he has also entered the grave, leaving himself in this world, and I wonder how the Bourbon Sea will see him in three hundred years?
The "Holy Monarch" Shami I is placed at the center of the martyr's house, implying that he is the greatest Zila of thousands of years, and therefore enjoys such a high reputation. The reason why Shami Ni I was conferred such a high position was not that the martyr's office was built by his son, but because of the transformation he brought to Zla.
From the point of view of Gross, a thorough third party, personal emotional factors aside, it is true that Zla's "Holy Monarch" is more genuine than Manada's "Holy Monarch". The reason why Molaid was named the "Holy King" by Manada was because he brought the glory expected of the Manada people by force, and the novice nun was named "Holy King" not because of military but cultural contributions.
In 1263 A.D., the 58-year-old novice Ni Fai Kano was elected as the 31st King of Zla, and three years after he succeeded to the throne, he began the famous novice reform.
When did Zla live happily by plundering Manada, but under the blow of the opposite "Holy Monarch" Molaid, Zla lost Glendor and Se, lost the foundation of the plunder, and could only turn to construction.
However, all this chaos was summed up during the reign of the novice nuns, who institutionalized and standardized the governance methods explored by the Zla in the past, and established many new and effective measures to better govern the novice nuns, and the reform of the novice nuns allowed the political system of the zla to surpass the decentralized Manada for a time.
The greatest contribution of the novice nuns to Maz Island is in the institutionalization of the region.
The concept of a region was first born within the territory of Manada, and a certain area is called a region, and the families in a region will cooperate with each other to form political partners.
However, in the past, successive Manada kings were worried that if the region was substantiated, it would make the nobles in the region more closely huddled, which was not conducive to the king's faction fighting one faction. With this in mind, until the time of the reform of the novice nun, the region was a regional rather than a political concept within the Manada country.
This did ensure that in the early days, several large families could easily provoke the relationship between the small families, so that they could not be closely together, but it also dragged down Manada's administrative power, and Manada's several defeats in wars had nothing to do with this aspect.
Therefore, the novice nuns dared to be the first in the world and took the lead in institutionalizing the region, setting up a region above the main city and below the state. This even affected Manada, who in the following years had to follow the novice nuns and was forced to institutionalize the region.
The second relic left by the novice nuns was the novice nin, and through the efforts of the novice nuns, the Zla created their own script modeled after King Manada, which is already an independent script in the records of the divine realm, although it bears some resemblance to King Manada.
So, just like the "Holy Monarch" of Manada, although the novice himself did not change the elective monarchy, as soon as he died, his son was put on the throne of Zla by the fanatical people, restored the hereditary system of Zra, and established the second dynasty of Zla, the Kano dynasty.
The Kano dynasty ruled from 1280 to 1404, existed for 124 years, a total of nine Zla kings, during which the greatest achievement was to take advantage of Maranch's war of independence, taking the opportunity to recapture Glendor, the Kano dynasty had little prestige for a while, but in less than 30 years the dynasty was gone, why is this?
After retaking Glendor, King Zla remembered the good old days, and happily followed the records left by his ancestors to raid the frontier region of Manada.
However, the Frontier Region is already here and there, and after the looting of Zla and the decline of Manada, it is already a loss-making business for Zla to rob the Frontier Region instead of occupying the Frontier Region.
However, the king of Zla did not understand it at first, and led his army to rob it several times, but the robbery could not be recovered, which not only caused the prestige of the Kano dynasty to plummet, but also successfully reminded the Manada people in the frontier region of the past days when they were plundered by the Zra, which aroused hatred for the Zla, which caused countless troubles for the Zla people in the future.
The second stupid thing that the Kano Dynasty did was to try to contact Maranqi to let him attack Manada on both sides with him before attacking Manada, but Maranqi did not hesitate to sell Zla, and also staged a double play with Manada with sinister intentions, as a result, the fooled Zla was miserably pitted, causing many unnecessary casualties, which made the prestige of the Kano Dynasty plummet.
To add insult to injury, the Kano dynasty finally failed to invade Manada, which made the Zla people furious, this invasion obviously had such a big advantage and actually failed, someone must take the blame, needless to say that you Kano, it wasn't that you were cheated before the war started, how could you lose so badly?
As a result, in 1404, the Kano dynasty carried out Zla's version of the "Second Fassaka Compromise", which ended the history of the Kano dynasty and began the era of Zla's third election of kings.
Then there was a similar script, the third king election era went on for more than 90 years, and there was a very accomplished Zla king, "Iron Bone" Shami Ni V, so the era of king election ended again.
However, Shami Ni V is a little different from the previous Chavin I and Shami Ni I, who established the Erbs and Kano dynasties, because Shami Ni V was not a Zla, he was the third Zishi Zila king in Zla's history, and the first Zishi Zila king to hold real power.
The so-called Zishi people are the descendants of the Zlarized Manada and Mayana people, and when you see this, you should understand how strong the Zishi people should be if they can achieve the status of the king of Zla and also hold real power.
You must know that the first two Zishi kings were just because of the election of the kingship, and the major families controlled each other, and finally chose a lame Zla king, and this is not the case with Shami Ni V, he has real power, because he can become the king of Zla not by chance, but by virtue of his real meritorious service.
That being said, this status was awkward, and it also determined that Shami Ni V could not successfully establish his own hereditary dynasty like Chauvin and Shami I.
But how could Shami V be willing to accept such an outcome? Before he succeeded to the throne, Zla broke out into a massive rebellion, which he put down by himself alone, with the official pulling back and surrounded by pig teammates, and after he succeeded to the throne, he waged war against Manada, seized the western part of the small forest region, and cut off Manada's tentacles reaching towards Seni.
Shami V could not accept that outcome, so in 1506 he changed the political system of Zla and established the trioliarch system, and the kingdom of Zla became the "Zla Trioliarch Co-government".
In this newly established trioliarchic system, the Zla will not be elected by the major nobles, nor will one family be the hereditary Zla king, but three families will take turns to be the oligarchs of the Zla king.
And for the election of the three oligarchs, Shami Ni V also took great pains. In addition to his own Hughes family, on the one hand, the abdicated Kano family is pulled as an oligarch, and on the other hand, its biggest competitor is the Bouben family, which is the era of trioligarchy rule that Zila has appeared since 1506.
