To be honest, as a young man with strong blood and no physical disabilities, it is impossible to think about that aspect of things.

However, considering his actual situation, his life event is not so much a marriage as a comparable transaction.

Maybe he had been in this world for a long time, or maybe he had grown up, and Franz unconsciously began to identify with some of the views of the aristocracy.

It's brutal, but it's good.

In order to make this deal more valuable, Franz really searched for information about the princesses of various countries. It's just that there are really not many people who are close to the Habsburgs, and even fewer countries that are in line with the interests of the Austrian Empire.

And then after all, marriage is related to the next generation, so it can't be too close by blood, the body must be healthy, and of course it can't be too ugly.

Russia, Prussia, Denmark, Saxony, Spain, Portugal and Brazil are roughly excluded.

One of these options can kill two birds with one stone, and that is the youngest daughter of former Brazilian-Portuguese "double" Pedro I.

Maria Amelia was historically engaged to Franz's second brother, Maximilian, but unfortunately the princess contracted scarlet fever and tuberculosis a year before her marriage, and died soon after.

Franz didn't have the skills to treat either disease, but he could keep it away from the source of the infection.

Maria Amelia contracted scarlet fever in large part to blame her mother for leaving Munich, where she had been living, and suddenly returning to Portugal, where scarlet fever was taking place.

Even if you don't get scarlet fever, it's easy for a long-time inland person to suddenly live by the sea.

So Franz felt that as long as she stayed in Munich honestly, the princess would not necessarily be disgraced.

In fact, the two have also seen at the palace banquet, but that was seven or eight years ago, and a little Lori tried to pounce on herself and was subconsciously pushed down by herself.

Franz was still quite popular when he was young, but because of this, he was reprimanded by Mrs. Sophie at the time.

Judging from the photographs and court portraits sent back from Portugal in recent years, this princess is a beautiful woman.

The historical Princess Maria Amelia studied hard and studied in a wide range of subjects, including rhetoric, philosophy, history, geography, German literature, mathematics and physics.

In addition to Portuguese, she studied English, French and German, and achieved a high level of drawing, painting and piano playing.

Legend has it that she was quick-witted and self-taught, and some law professors even claimed that if she became a lawyer, she would be able to achieve great things.

These legends are impossible to verify, but Maria Amelia did work hard at this time, because her conversation with Franz left an indelible impression on her.

Even if he is a true genius child, it is dwarfed to meet Franz, who is also a human being in two lives and a time-traveler.

But Franz didn't remember these things for a long time, after all, he had done too many shocking things in the eyes of outsiders, although he had tried his best to behave normally.

Although Portugal is declining, and the Brazilian Empire is not up and down and is regarded as fat by the British, Portugal still has a strong influence overseas.

Especially in Africa, its colonies occupy many key nodes, and they also have many ties with the colonies of the Austrian Empire.

The Portuguese were already overwhelmed by the wave of colonization and were in dire need of a strong ally to breathe new life into them.

With a population of 46 million, backed by the German Confederation, and opened up two labor export destinations, Japan and India, the Austrian Empire was definitely a very good choice.

The main thing is that Franz feels that his character is much stronger than that of the British, and he will not make a lot of money on his own and then pit his teammates half to death.

There are many reasons why the Brazilian Empire is not high or low, but there are only three of them.

One, there is no money.

Two, no one.

Three, no right.

The Austrian Empire had all of the above conditions, and Franz was far ahead of its time, so it was not difficult for the Brazilian Empire to directly become a great power.

It's just that the royal family of the Brazilian Empire is really a bit low, and the aristocratic circles in Europe may not necessarily agree, but fortunately, Maria Amelia still has the title of Portuguese princess.

As for marrying Maria Amelia, the difficulty is almost zero, as long as Franz or the Habsburgs show their intentions.

The Portuguese royal family is hard to say, but the emperor of the Brazilian Empire, Pedro II, must have beaten the gongs and drums to send his sister over.

The only possible problem is with the British, who see either Portugal or Brazil as meat in their own bowls, and there is absolutely no possibility of sharing it with anyone else.

The main thing is that this princess is the same age as Franz, and the blood relationship is very distant, and at the same time it is a small change in history.

Denmark, the former Nordic male lion, is already a toothless old cat at this time. The fleet that once crisscrossed the North Sea would not be rebuilt until 161 years later.

(It's a meme.) After the defeat at Copenhagen in 1807, the Danes planted 90,000 oak trees to rebuild their navy.

200 years later, in 2007, the Danish Forestry Service informed the Ministry of Defence. "The oak is ripe and ready for revenge."

This also confirms the term "century-old navy" in a way. ）

Their princess will also have to wait a long time, because the next two successive Danish kings will have no heirs, and the Danish throne will be inherited by Christian IX from Glücksburg.

The advantage of a marriage with Denmark was that the Duchy of Schleswig and Holstein could be resolved peacefully, at least not by Bismarck as a trap.

In fact, after the real marriage, not to mention Denmark, even Norway would have to be incorporated into the German Confederation.

In this way, the Skagerrak Strait, the Kattegat Strait, the Øresund Strait, and the entire Baltic Sea will become a bathtub for Germany.

At this time, although Denmark and Norway were forcibly separated, the former has been very unconvinced, and the latter has not had too many ideas, mainly because their strength does not allow them to have too many ideas.

Norway was actually more culturally pro-Danish, and even pulled a prince directly from the Danish royal family to be its own king after its independence.

In addition, Norway has a strong desire for revenge against both Britain and Sweden, not only for Denmark, but also for themselves.

Once the British blockaded the coast of Norway, the main grain and raw materials and other materials could not be transported in, only in 1807~1809 three years, more than 70,000 Norwegians starved to death.

Sweden's entry into Norway by force did not do a good job, and the latter has always been treated as a colony by the former.

But the Danish princess, like their fleet, will take time to grow, after all, Christian IX's daughter, Princess Alexandra Caroline Marie Charlotte Louise Julia, was born in 1844.
