2 Spoulet is thriving

"Glory to Splet."

Splitter's royalty, officials, and military members usually use this phrase as a conversation starter or greeting, and half of it is psychologically obedient to etiquette, while the other half is indeed a visceral sense of national pride.

The Sprelet Empire, as the most powerful country in the world, can do everything in all aspects, even in the face of the Djinn Crisis, the military and civilian losses are more than one million, but it still has the strength to win the war on its own, even if the war is over, the number of the Empire's army is still at a high order of magnitude - the country can afford to support them.

In order to maintain a strong treasury, the Sprelet Empire has been working at full speed in recent years, vigorously developing commerce, and at the same time not forgetting to explore the country's mineral resources. For a time, the markets in the city were bustling with people, and the mines outside the city were bustling with activity, transporting wealth to the empire.

In fact, more than ten years before the Djinn Crisis, a new wave of technological revolution had already appeared in the Splitter Empire.

The most notable innovation was the refinement of the steam engine, a power facility that had existed centuries ago and was finally strengthened around 1780 in the Imperial Calendar, which was more powerful and reliable, and could be used in almost all fields...... After that, there is the law that we are familiar with, the original time-consuming and laborious work was replaced by machinery, the productivity was greatly improved, and the output of a variety of resources rose sharply, especially mineral resources, which led to the rise of the output of many metals, so that the equipment of the imperial army suddenly improved by leaps and bounds in quality and quantity, and formed an overwhelming advantage in comparison with neighboring countries.

Strangely enough, contrary to what we know, the empire did not immediately apply steam to industrial production or transportation, but to make it smaller and smaller with the improvement of blacksmiths and skilled workers, and even solved the problem of miniaturizing boilers. So until 1800, there were no large factories and industrial equipment in the empire, and no means of transportation like trains or steamships appeared - at least on the surface. Miniaturized steam engines were used in the textile, logging, mining, and fishing industries, for example, many minecarts were equipped with small steam engines to replace the original human and animal power. However, after the arrival of the Djinn Crisis, many people began to use steam engines and new technologies to produce more sophisticated weapons, and some imagined building large steam-powered warships, and some ideas were said to have entered the experimental stage.

There have also been great breakthroughs in the field of advanced weapons, such as muskets, which are still relatively backward arquebuses used in a large number of Spellet's imperial armies, which have been used for more than 300 years and have greatly improved their safety after several improvements, but the problem of slow loading speed has not been solved. However, at the same time as the improvement of the steam engine, flintlock pistols had been developed, and a small number of soldiers began to be installed, which also achieved good results. At present, the development of muskets in the empire has reached an astonishing level of sophistication and maturity, and even many design concepts have been perfected, and it is only necessary to wait for technological advances to be put into production. Artillery is also an important weapon of the Spellet Empire, although it is not a big killer weapon, but the manufacture and application of artillery in the Djinn Crisis have matured and the effect is remarkable.

The empire has also improved to varying degrees in the fields of agriculture, water conservancy, and industry, and its overall strength has been continuously enhanced.

"Glory to Splet." This self-confidence comes from the sustained enthusiasm for labor and the achievements brought about by technological innovation, and most importantly, almost all the people can enjoy the gospel brought by technological innovation, and even the people at the bottom are not afraid of being abandoned and isolated.

However, there are some areas where there has been no significant growth and there has been a marked regression trend.

Among them, there is a religion that involves faith, and the religion that people in this world generally believe in is called "Wanyuan Religion", which is a world religion that believes in the source of all things, whether to accept faith with individual consciousness and freedom, and its symbolic symbol is a piece of upside-down roots, which means that the root is supreme and everything has a source. Wanyuan Sect believes that all things will eventually return to the source of everything, which is what we know as "heaven", on the contrary, because they have done too many bad things, they may fall into "hell" and cannot return to the source.

The churches, churches, and clergy set up in major cities are not much different from what we know, and the churches do good deeds, take in orphans and vagrants, help the poor, hold regular services, bless the newlyweds, and baptize babies......

The Wanyuan Sect has a nominal army, but it is very small in number, and usually carries out only trivial tasks such as investigation, guarding, and transmitting information, and usually does not participate in political and national struggles—of course, there are not enough people to make up the numbers.

The Wanyuan Sect, the "world's largest religion", had only half of the population of the Spallow Empire for a long time, and after the Djinn crisis, this proportion dropped to about one-third. It's not that the people of Split are atheists, but in the face of crisis, they believe more in strength than in spirit. Although the Wanyuan Church raised a lot of supplies and helped many refugees when the crisis came, it was seen more like a non-profit charity than a faith.

The rulers of the Spallow Empire also did not believe in Wanyuanjiao, but they encouraged the nobles in the country to unite with Wanyuanjiao to do good and adopt orphans taken in by Wanyuanjiao, so almost all the nobles and wealthy families in the empire had adopted sons or daughters, even the royal family was no exception.

The other undeveloped is magic, since most of the words in the Saknusem Manuscript have been deciphered, and the remaining words have not been accurately deciphered for more than a hundred years due to the difficulty of deciphering. A large part of the words that have been deciphered are also unable to use or verify their usage due to the lack of ability of the magician, resulting in the overall stagnation of the development of magic in the Empire. In fact, this situation is not only in Splet, but also in other countries, and even if the magicians have a copy of the "Saknusem Manuscript", it still can't change this embarrassing situation.

At present, the more common types of magic are: fire, wind, water, electric shock and other magic that can be used to attack; protection and healing magic such as shields, barriers, healing, etc.; Summoning, creating puppets, transformations, and other magic that involves physical changes and control......

There are also some high-level magics that only a few magicians can use, such as time-controlling magic, which can slow down their own time and thus achieve longevity; Some people will use prophetic magic to know what is to come; Someone is able to control the dreams of humans or animals and change the minds of others...... But the magicians who can use these spells can only be described as rare.

……

The Sprelet Empire, after experiencing the Djinn Crisis, is still developing rapidly. The slogan "Glory to Splitter" became the spiritual support of most of the people of the Empire, and almost everyone believed: tomorrow, everything will be better -

Unfortunately, not everyone thinks that way.
