Chapter 351: Overseas Distant Country: Dreaming of the Austrians (2) Hereditary and King Election are intertwined
Now in the year 1609, Gross stands on one of the largest cities on the island of Maz, on the street of Tym, which is the capital of the Republic of Maranch, the seat of the Golden Horn.
When Gross walked to the central square of Tyme, one of the guards stopped Gross and measured what Gross was wearing, so he stretched out his hands and shook them, knowing that the other party was asking for a bribe.
Gross didn't give the other party a bribe, but calmly elementalized his body, and then the guard was startled and hurriedly stepped aside to let Gross pass. You must know that the elementalization of the body means that this person is a warlock, not the kind of warlock who uses rabbits and ants to fill the numbers, and can find the fire element for fusion, which means that this person is either rich or expensive, so the guards decisively coaxed.
Yes, Warlock, during the twenty years that Gross was at Felison XIV's Academy, the profession of Warlock began to spread outward, but because Warlocks need to fuse blood, families who can afford to play Warlocks are basically either rich or expensive, and the poor are better to be honest fighters than Warlocks.
Therefore, nowadays, as a warlock with a cherished bloodline, he is a symbol of power, and he can send away some haunted imps.
As soon as you enter the square, the first thing that catches your eye is a large statue placed in the center of the square, which is a statue dressed in a very different costume from that of the Manadas. ”
When he first saw the statue, Gross was shocked.
What? This statue is Luhr, the Navigator, and what are the titles? Navigator, I know, a sage of a foreign land...... So-so can be taken care of, but what is the forerunner of the republic? Luhr seems to have been a petty official, and he has never done his job, so he must have devoted his mind to sailing!
Seeing the text on the base of the statue, Gross took a few steps back in surprise and re-examined the statue in front of him, indeed the clothes worn by the characters of this statue were not Manada clothes, but they were not Bourbon clothes either!
Gross is a pure resident of Boris, and the statue of Lull on Meese Square has also been seen, although the original statue has been smashed in the twenty-fourth consul year, but after the chaos of Felison XIV ended, the Bourbon people copied it, and Gross still stood there when he was a child.
Although it seems to have been carried away by the Boris during the Bourbon War, it is not on the ruins of Place Meate anyway.
Yes, Luhr is a character from nearly a thousand years ago, and there is a slight difference between it and Gross's Bourbon costume at this time, but no matter how big the difference is, it will not be different from this.
Looking at the statue again, and then looking at the surrounding Manadas, Gross finally made a more reasonable guess, this statue should be the descendants of the Bourbon people according to the legend of their ancestors, combined with their own imagination, finally made the four dissimilarities.
In addition, the square that Gross is stepping on now, the look of Miese Square is getting stronger and stronger, since the Manada version of Mitz Square has appeared, is there a General Assembly Palace? Gross looked around and found that there was nothing, and the local Palace of the Republic was some distance from the square.
Wait, oh, Gross understands the reason, Lure is a character from nearly a thousand years ago, when Lure was still alive, Bourbon did not have such a thing as the Palace of the General Assembly, and the object of the plagiarism of the square under his feet was not the Place de la Mies, but the City Square of Bourbon (which Bourbon still has), and the Place de la Mire and the Palace of the Congrence appeared more than three hundred years after the death of Luhr, so the descendants of those sailors did not know at all.
Yes, the descendants of sailors, six hundred years ago, in the year 860 of the Great Calendar, because of the fall of the Soth dynasty, the Bourbon family, who were the servants of the Soth dynasty, were liquidated and driven to the Tym Wasteland, that is, Gross now trampled on this land.
After 600 years, Tame has become a new country, the capital of Maranch, and the local area is no longer called the old name of the Yellow Horn, but the Golden Horn, from which you can feel the prosperity of this land.
More than 600 years ago, in 923 A.D., after the Fassaka dynasty of Manada and the anti-Fassaka rebels united to drive out Zla, the two sides did not have the strength to continue the civil war, so they quarreled for three years, and finally Fassaka and the rebels reached a compromise, that is, the "Fassaka Compromise" in 926 A.D.
According to the content of the "Fassaka Compromise" treaty, the Fassaka family gave up the power of the hereditary Manada king, and let the Manada king be re-elected by the nobles, and as the price of the Fassaka family to give up the hereditary power, the Fassaka family not only retained a lot of land, but also obtained a unique old king vote through compromise, the so-called old king vote, that is, in the election of the king, the Fassaka family voted over many votes of other families.
In this way, the Fassaka dynasty ended the reign of Manada in 68 years and five kings, and Manada ushered in the era of the second king, and the king of Manada was democratically elected by the aristocracy.
Since Manada has not chosen a king for more than 300 years, no one among the living people knows how to choose a king before, and they stumbled to choose it, and the result is quite embarrassing, the 29th king of Manada is still the Fassaka family, which is equivalent to hereditary in the election of kings.
As soon as this result came out, the other nobles began to make trouble, saying that this must be the cause of the old Fassaka royal ticket, so it needed to be changed. As soon as the Fassaka family heard this, they immediately became MMP, and they said that they would give me the old king's ticket and that they would cook and elect the king, but why are you repenting of the election now? Do you want to fight the civil war again?
So the two sides chattered and quarreled for a long time, and finally compromised again, this has been elected king, let him be the first, but the next king can't be like this, since your Fassaka family refuses to give up the old royal ticket, okay, then let's think the opposite way and increase the votes of other nobles.
In 936 of the Great Calendar, Manada promulgated the "Ordinance for the Election of the King", and on the basis of the old royal votes of the Fassaka family, new Sos votes, king votes, hero votes, and general votes were added, which were held by different families, and each family could only hold one special vote, and then each special vote had a different value.
Subsequently, the "Regulations on the Election of the King" have been revised several times, and the process of electing the king and the types of votes have become more and more cumbersome, resulting in the calculation of the number of votes has become a specialized profession. Of course, after doing so, the nobles finally achieved their goal, and succeeded in ousting Fassaka from the throne in the third election.
What? You have a slim margin of votes in your election? No, no, no, you didn't count the special votes. What? How to calculate the increase in the amount of special tickets? This is left to the professionals to calculate, you just need to know that you failed to elect the king.
Although there were some twists and turns at the beginning, the system of electing kings continued and lasted for 169 years, with a total of 13 generations of Manada kings elected.
The man who put an end to the Second Election was the heavyweight Heroic Spirit of the Manada civilization, revered by the Manada people as the "Holy King", and his full name was Molaid Fai Asa.
Born in 1026 A.D., Molaid's extraordinary skill made him known in his academy days, and at the age of 38, he entered the core ruling class of Manada, and was qualified to elect the king, and was praised by the world as the youngest king elector in Manada's history.
But fate is always upside down, and fate is always twists and turns.
In 1070, Manada ushered in a new round of kingship, and the 44-year-old Molaid participated in this election. If successful, he will become the youngest king of Manada in the era of the Second Election.
As a man with many titles worthy of the name of the first in history (Manada range), Molaid squeezed the path of countless people on his way, and now these people have gathered together, led by a political enemy, he is also qualified to elect the king, and he is almost sixty years old, and has been preparing for a lifetime, and this is his last chance.
Then they joined forces and excluded Molaid directly from the king's election, and Molaid was not vain, and directly started the Manada Civil War in 1071.
As soon as a civil war broke out in Manada, Zla, who was crouching on the side, immediately followed up and invaded again.
Originally, Zla thought that this time the civil war would be fought for a long time, and then he could profit from it, but Molaid was not comparable to the rebels back then, and the current King of Manada was not comparable to the Fassaka family in the past.
Molaid was victorious at the decisive Battle of Fassaka and was elected the 41st King of Manada in the wartime of Soth.
After the defeat, the former king of Manada fled to the territory controlled by Zra, betrayed the country without restraint, and asked Zla to invade, and Zla happily agreed, so under the leadership of the Belt and Road Party, began a full-scale invasion of Manada.
Zla felt that Manada had been in the civil war for so many years, and that he had already invaded Manada, and now that he had invaded Manada, it must be easy to win, right? As a result, Zla was slapped back by Molaid, and when the invasion failed four years later, and when the peace talks failed, he lost a considerable part of his territory.
This was the end of the day, and after the end of the war, Zla ushered in a great upheaval, and then the Ebbs dynasty was overthrown, and it became the elective system of Manada.
Manada, on the other hand, reached the peak of prestige as Molaid not only unified Manada, but also regained the lost territory that had been lost for a hundred years, and countless Manada people cheered and begged Molaid to end the election of the king and regain the hereditary lineage.
In the face of the cheers of the Manada people, Molaide humbly refused, saying, "I was born in the era of the king, and I am familiar with this era, I will not destroy the system of king-electing," and what moved the Manada people even more was that Molaid not only did not destroy the election of the king in office, but even took the initiative to give in when he was alive!
Taking the initiative to let Chan is an old thing that only existed in the era of the first election of the king, and in the era of the second election of the king, Zen let appeared for the first time, that is, this time Molaide.
Obviously in power and unprecedented support, but still "unwilling" hereditary, but also issued this kind of declaration, which touched many Manada people, so in the later Manada various written records, Moled was blown to the sky and called him "Holy King".
Of course, Manada also gave birth to a local proverb because of Molaid, especially for the king of Manada, that is, "If the gods favor me, then let me be Molaid", and if it is replaced by the earth, it is the prime minister's "If the destiny of heaven is in me, I am Zhou Wen." ”
Yes, although Molaid himself did not end the election of the king, he did it while he was alive, and in the election after the election, his son was elected by a very high number of votes because of his father's legacy, and abolished the system of electing the king at the coronation ceremony, inaugurating the Asa dynasty of Manada.
