How to describe it?

The Union of Monarchical Republics may be a vague analogy to the Commonwealth in the real world, with full autonomy and recognition of the legitimacy of the royal family. In the real world, the British Empire has come to an end, and the Commonwealth has little presence; And the old Kyushu in this time and space is still a fertile land of civilization at the moment, and the alliance of the Zhuxia Monarchical Republic built by Wei Dongsheng should be far more existential than the British Commonwealth.

Back to the main line of the Kyushu unification process.

The traditional four powerhouses such as the Lu Domain, the Four Provinces of the Xia Kingdom, the Zhao Domain, and the Yan Domain were merged into one, and who else could resist the general trend? After the Zhuxia Alliance, the southern vassal states gradually compromised and joined the Zhuxia Monarchical Republic Alliance. In 1841, the feudal states outside of the old Kyushu also signed the "Zhuxia Alliance" and merged into the Zhuxia Monarchical Republic Alliance.

The core of the alliance of the Zhuxia monarchical republics is the Xia Kingdom, and the core territory of the Xia Kingdom is similar to the real-world Huaguo, with only more northern wastelands such as Outer Mongolia, Russian Siberia and the Far East, and Hokkaido, Japan.

The Union of the Zhuxia Monarchical Republics abolished the word vassal state to show equality, and all the member states were renamed states. In the future, if there are differences, it will be the differences of regional cultures.

The Zhuxia Monarchical Republic reformulated the world order according to the characteristics of Xia Jun Xia Min, Xia Jun Yi Min, and Yi Jun Remnants.

The Xia Jun Xia Min State includes the 14th Republic of Penglai and the Republic of South Kunlun (the territory covers the real world South Africa, Lesotho, Eswatini, Namibia, Botswana, etc.), and the two republics of Nanyang (Australia, New Zealand and other regions).

The Xia Junyi Minbang originally included the five feudal states of Nanyang, the Jiaozhi domain, the Luo domain, the Shengmeng domain, and the rest of the country.

In the process of actual implementation, Wei Dongsheng regretted that after the unification of Kyushu, the order of the colonies had a tendency to collapse. Xia Guoqiang is also strong, but the cabinet's energy and focus are also limited, and it is simply unable to calmly manage colonies around the world like during the coexistence of various vassals. Moreover, the colonies were complex and diverse, and the central dynasty's rash unified management would inevitably be harmful and unhelpful, and would breed countless problems.

After months of deliberation, Wei Dongsheng decided to compromise with reality.

First, Wei Dongsheng allowed the Ming clan to survive in the southern colonies, and established the Southern Ming state in the real-world Burma region.

Secondly, Wei Dongsheng acquiesced to the real-world Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and other regions to split into the Tianzhu Nine States based on the colonial management of the old vassal states.

The Middle Eastern colonies controlled by the old vassal states were broken up into five kingdoms.

The African colonies controlled by the old vassal states, except for the Republic of Southern Kunlun, which had the highest degree of localization, were divided one after another, and Somalia was a state; Uganda and Kenya are one state; Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi and other states are one state; Mozambique is a state; The island of Madagascar is a state; Angola, Congo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea and other countries are one country; Cameroon, the Central African Republic, Chad and other states are one country; Nigeria, Benin, etc. are one state; Togo, Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Niger and other states are one state; Liberia, Sierra Leone, Guinean pesos, Mali and other countries are one country; Senegal, Gambia, Mauritania, Western Sahara, etc. are one state; Morocco, Algeria and other countries are one country; Tunisia and Libya are one state, making a total of thirteen states. If the Southern Kunlun Republic of Xia Jun and Xia Min is counted, it can also be called the Fourteen States of Kunlun.

The European colonies controlled by the old vassal states, the Balearic Islands as one state, Corsica as one state, Sardinia as one state, Crete as one state, and Cyprus as one state, collectively known as the five island states of Europe

At the same time, for the long-term stability of the western frontier, Wei Dongsheng forced the Anxi Domain and the Tianzhu Colony to spit out part of the Afghan territory to form a new state, and forced the Luo Domain to spit out the Ural region to form a new state.

In addition, after deducting Ryukyu Island and Hokkaido, there were four regimes in Japan. Among them, Kyushu Island and Shikoku Island are both unorthodox colonies established by the invasion of the old Kyushu pirates, and they joined the Xia Jun Yimin Order in the name of Zhu Ziguo and Hai Zhengguo respectively. Zhu Ziguo, Hai Zheng Guo, and Lelang Guo are simply known as the three states of Beiyang.

The three states of the North, the five states of Nanyang, the nine states of Nanming, the nine states of Tianzhu, the five states of Tianfang, the thirteen states of Kunlun, the five states of Europe, and the five states of Shengmeng, a total of 45 states joined the Federation of the Zhuxia Monarchy Republic with the characteristics of Xia Junyi people. Even the 17 Xia monarchs, Xia Minbang, and Xia Kyushu proper, the Zhuxia Monarch Republic Alliance has a total of 64 member states, basically covering Asia, Oceania, North and South America, Africa and other places.

In addition to the 64 member states, there are many other countries that are also in the sphere of influence of the Zhuxia Monarchical Republic.

For example, the two countries that were divided between the main island of Japan and the Kanto region had long since become puppet states controlled by the old feudal states, although they were in the nature of razing the monarchs and destroying the people. In order to leave a place for these puppets, the Zhuxia Monarchy Republic set up a tributary rank, including both Kanto Japan and Kansai Japan.

In addition to the two tributary states, Ethiopia, the puppet state of the old vassal states in Africa, and the state of Naples, formed by the puppet states of Portugal and the Netherlands, and the state of Naples formed by the puppet states of Europe and southern Italy, were also ranked as first-class tributary states. Other European countries with a weaker degree of control were either second-class tributary states or third-class tributary states, depending on diplomatic needs.

It is said that it is the alliance of the Zhuxia monarchical republics, but in fact, it is more like a United Nations-style global organization with a high degree of concentration of power. If the Zhuxia Monarch Republic Alliance can prosper for a long time until the interstellar era, it may be transformed into the Earth Federation at any time.

The Zhuxia Monarch Republic Alliance is temporarily introduced here.

The integration of the Zhuxia Monarch Republic Alliance was completed, and the ninth Wei Dongsheng also came to the end of his life.

In 1847, Wei Dongsheng died at the age of 83.

……

Finally, the ultimate tenth life.

……

In 1847, Wei Zu retired and died, and his son-in-law Wei Zunang succeeded to the throne as the twenty-first emperor of the Wei Xia Dynasty.

In 1854, Wei Zunang died and was succeeded by his younger brother Wei Zunqi, who was the twenty-second emperor of the Wei Xia Dynasty.

From 1847 to 1865, when Wei Dongsheng left, the alliance of the Zhuxia monarchical republic was not very important, and the people of Kyushu lived and worked in peace and contentment.

If you have to focus on the brutal war, the focus is also far away in Europe.

With the invasion of the sea in the west and the Roban in the east, old Europe has become more and more anxious in recent years. Perhaps in response to the existential crisis, the concept of a Germanic nation intensified, leading to calls for the unification of Almania. Unwilling to see the annexation of the kingdoms of Bologna (Poland) and the kingdom of Blous become stronger, the international conference of the Union of the Monarchical Republics of Zhuxia hesitated, and the alliance wanted to extinguish the onslaught of Germanic ideology and did not want the Lopin fishermen to benefit.

It was at this time that the kingdom of Elia expressed its willingness to spearhead the alliance.

In 1861, the kingdom of Eria announced the annexation of Hanoverian Domain, and then broke into the mainland again to compete with the state of Blous. Perhaps for this reason, or perhaps for that reason, Elijah defeated the Blous Kingdom in successive battles, and not only successfully merged Hanover and other places, but also divided the Eastern Blous city-states into several spheres of influence. Luo Bang also took the opportunity to make trouble, ignoring the criticism of the Union of Zhuxia Monarchy Republics and forcibly annexing the state of Bologna, which indirectly led to the increasingly acute contradictions in old Europe.

Except for the fact that the kingdom of Elia once again fought across the channel, there was no other war worth mentioning.

Wars certainly exist, and there are many of them, but the impact of those small-scale wars is minimal.

The camera moves to Wei Dongsheng's small perspective.

Wei Dongsheng's 10th life background was unexpectedly reduced to the tenth class, and his nominal parents were a poor mountain resident in Taiping County, Ningguo Prefecture, Anhui Province, and his inheritance to Wei Dongsheng was only two acres of barren thin fields. The nominal parents of the ninth generation of experience, despite the hard work in the sweatshop model textile factory, can barely earn enough for the most basic food, clothing, shelter and transportation; The titular parents of the tenth generation can barely survive at most, and the family is surrounded by walls, and there is no money left over to consume conventional goods.

Speaking of farmers, I have to introduce the current state of agriculture in old Kyushu.

Neither before nor after the Industrial Revolution, the old Linhai feudal states did not take the initiative to curb the phenomenon of land annexation, but instead stood on the standpoint of the landlord class and wantonly oppressed the poor peasants. The old feudal state restricted the landlords only to the landlords' personal restraint on the hired peasants, that is, the purpose of the cabinet of the old feudal state to suppress the landlord class was not to land wealth, but to covet those human resources who were bound by the land.

Both the Great Voyage and early industry required a great deal of human resources, and the cabinet, representing the interests of the industrial class, had to snatch a large number of hired peasants from the landlords.

As for the land itself, the Cabinet compromised and allowed the landlord class to continue to occupy it.

The peasant groups living before and after the Industrial Revolution were extremely miserable, and their fields were usurped by traditional landlords or industrial landlords, and they had to come to the cities to beg. When the city needs labor, the policy actively encourages bankrupt peasant groups to do the dirtiest and most tiring work; When urban development stagnates or the economy is in crisis, there is no longer an urgent shortage of labor, and cities acquiesce in the rampant regional discrimination, driving bankrupt farmers and unskilled unemployed groups as garbage. Fortunately, the old vassal states had vast colonies, and the instability of these resentful cabinets was brutally driven to fend for themselves in the colonies.

The population of the colony skyrocketed as a result of this policy, and the population growth rate of the old Kyushu was greatly reduced by this policy.

Just think about it.

Suppose four acres of land can support one yeoman farmer, four thousand acres of land can support four thousand people. And if these 4,000 acres of land belong to a big landowner, how many people can be fed? Although the big landlords need a group of hired peasants, long-term laborers, and short-term laborers, they will definitely not have more than 4,000 people. Therefore, there is no need for family planning to control the population, and the population density will naturally be greatly reduced by conniving at land annexation and eliminating the yeoman peasant class that makes efficient use of limited resources.

According to the latest statistics from 1859, the Second Industrial Revolution was almost over, and the population of the old Kyushu was 323.02 million.

Comparing real-world history side-by-side, some people roughly estimate that the Manchu Qing Dynasty in 1860 had a population of about 370 million. If only the population size is concerned, the Wei Xia Dynasty is far less embarrassing than the Manchu Dynasty. The reason is the land annexation mentioned above, the land annexation of the old Kyushu to a point that the Chinese people in the real world cannot imagine, and the rich often sit on hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land.
