Rakshasa wants to be Rome!

A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, and a white-skinned country in the European civilization circle that doesn't want to be Rome is probably not a good country, right? Except, of course, Greece. Ancient Greece was no worse than ancient Rome.

And for the Rakshasa to be considered a barbarian country in a barbarian country, what could be more honorable for them than to be a Roman?

After becoming a Roman, those old European countries that looked down on people no longer dared to look down on the Rakshasas, they should be Romans! Their old Europeans, except for the Italians, who can also speak of their Roman descendants, are all kinds of barbarians. Do you still dare to look down on Rome (rakshasa)?

After listening to the words of Nicholas I, Zhuge Weidao still seemed to be a little incomprehensible, so he asked: "Nicholas. Pavrovich, do you mean that the Rakshasa Empire was going to change its name to the Eastern Roman Empire after the capture of Constantinople? ”

Nicholas I shook his head and said: "There is no 'east', only the Roman Empire!" ”

Grand Duke Mikhail explained: "Count, after the fall of the Western Roman Empire to the barbarians, the official name of the Eastern Roman Empire was the Roman Empire!" Now, there is no Western Rome, and we will be the only Rome in the world after the reconquest of Constantinople! ”

"The only Rome?" Zhuge Weidao turned his head to look at the Empress of Nicholas I, and asked in Rakshasa language, "Your Majesty, your father Friedrich. William III probably didn't want to be Holy Roman Emperor, right? ”

Alexandra. Fiorovna shook her head and replied with a smile in fluent Chinese: "Count, the Holy Roman Empire is neither sacred, nor Roman, nor an empire. It was a complete tragedy, and the Germans had to endure too much responsibility and suffering that they should not have suffered. So Prussia would not attempt to revive the Holy Roman Empire, Prussia would only become the Austrian Empire. After the occupation of Austria, Croatia, Bohemia and Austrian Poland by Prussian troops. ”

"That's all?" Zhuge asked, "What about Hungary?" Croatia is part of the Great Kingdom of Hungary, right? Prussia didn't care about Greater Hungary after taking Croatia?

Also, did Prussia really not care about the territories in the north of the Apennine Peninsula? There are still a large number of Germanic people living there! ”

In the territory of the Austrian Empire, the Grand Duchy of Austria, which belonged to the German Confederation, was a rather weak leading brother, with weak military power and poor industry. Bohemia, on the other hand, has always been the industrial center of the empire because of its rich coal and iron resources. The largest territory under the Empire was the Great Kingdom of Hungary. This country includes Croatia, Slovakia, and Transylvania (the homeland of vampires), which is really big on the map, much bigger than Austria and Bohemia!

Because of its large territory and large population, Hungary has always had a high status in the Austrian Empire. In the early days of the Holy Roman Empire, the Hungarians also played the role of saviors of the Habsburgs. At the time of the War of the Austrian Succession, the Habsburg dynasty was about to end, but the Habsburg family's appearance was actually online. Theresia went to Hungary to make a sensational speech to win the sympathy of a group of Hungarian "beauty control" uncles, and as a result, she immediately gathered an army of 50,000 to help the Habsburgs turn the tide - this Maria. Theresia grew up with her mother, and thanks to the blessing that the various branches of the Habsburg family had died because of the marriage of close relatives, her father could finally choose a beautiful woman as his wife. Or Mary. Theresia went to Hungary with a long face and a big chin of the Habsburgs, and if she didn't do it, she would lose her country! And this time, because Franz. Emperor Joseph inherited the long face of the Habsburg family from generation to generation, and also had a pair of blister eyes, and his appearance did not meet the requirements of the Hungarian aristocracy, so it is almost finished now.

But Friedrich. Wilhelm III may have known that his appearance did not meet the requirements of the Hungarians either. So there is no idea about Hungary. It was just a matter of trying to take Croatia, which belonged to Hungary, in order to gain a larger outlet to the Mediterranean.

"Prussia did not have any claims to Hungarian lands other than Croatia," Alexandra said. "The Hungarian nobility could decide for themselves the future of their country," said Feorovna, "and if the Hungarians elected a member of the Habsburgs as king, Prussia would not object." ”

Zhuge nodded for the road, already understanding - Prussia and Rakshasa had reached an agreement to set up a Habsburg-ruled kingdom of Hungary on the Balkans without access to the sea as a buffer state, lest the German Empire get too close to Constantinople.

Such an arrangement is indeed a rakshasa!

"As for the Austrian possessions in northern Italy," Alexandra said. "It was expected to fall into the hands of Napoleon II," Fiorovna said, "and according to the secret agreement between my father and Napoleon II, he could receive all the Habsburg possessions in Italy, as well as annex the papal territories, and form an Italian republic after that." ”

"Nikolai. Pavrovich," Zhuge looked at Nicholas I, "are you not opposed to the partition of the Austrian Empire?" ”

"No objection!" Nicholas I took a sip of vodka and said with a smile, "Franz. Emperor Joseph had forgotten who saved his empire from the iron hooves of Emperor Napoleon. So he's not a true friend of the rakshasas! Moreover, unless the Ming Dynasty is prepared to help restore the Bourbon dynasty by force, we will not, and cannot afford to maintain the orthodox order in Europe alone. ”

Nicholas I obviously learned to be obedient, knowing how many pounds and taels he had, and he didn't dare to blame Central Europe and Western Europe for their idle affairs, unless Daming took him with him. Even if you send troops to Constantinople this time, you must first seek the support of the Ming Dynasty.

Listening to Nicholas I's statement, Zhuge Weidao smiled again: "Nicholas. Pavrovich, we got a reliable message . After Napoleon II seized northern Italy and the city of Rome, he would first establish an Italian republic led by the Napoleonic family, and later promote the union of this Italian republic with the French Republic!

The merged state would be known as the Roman Republic. In other words, there will still be two Romes in the world in the future. One was the Roman Empire and the other was the Roman Republic. There is also a German Empire sandwiched between the two Romes, which is quite a stable pattern! ”

Hearing Zhuge Weidao say this, the faces of Nicholas I and Grand Duke Mikhail were a little ugly.

Napoleon II wanted to get a Rome out of course!

He was born to be a king of Rome, and without Rome, where would he be king? So it's nothing for him to make a country and a Roman state. The big deal is the Eastern and Western Empires, which Nicholas I could accept.

But he shouldn't have made a Roman Republic!

Because this Roman Republic was not only republican, but also orthodox! Who in Europe could be more orthodox than the Roman Republic? Not even the Roman Empire!

Compared with the Roman Republic, the emperors and kings of European countries were all rebellious and thieves......
