The news of the realliance between Britain and Australia soon spread throughout Paris, and many countries in Europe turned their eyes to it.

After the four major powers of the Entente became the world's largest powers, Britain only concluded a new alliance with Australasia, which is somewhat meaningful.

Without waiting for too much coverage in the European media, another piece of news immediately appeared in the newspapers of the European media.

In April 1918, after friendly consultations among many countries, all the Entente countries that signed the Treaty of Versailles joined the newly established World League.

Many European media even regarded the establishment of the World League as a signal of the end of the war, because from now on there will be no more wars in the world, and all contradictions will be mediated by the World Alliance.

Not surprisingly, the four Entente powers became permanent members of the World League, with a right named the right of veto.

Many of the Entente countries, including Italy, were ordinary members and had only the most basic vote.

To accommodate the mood of a country like Italy, the World League also has a special position in addition to the permanent members, which take the name of the elected members.

As the name suggests, the World Alliance is elected among the non-permanent members, with the country with the highest number of votes becoming the elected members for a two-year term, and is responsible for assisting the four permanent members in the affairs of the World Alliance.

Although there is no veto, the most powerful of all, the rights and status of the elected members are considerable compared to the rank and file membership.

Of course, this has to be with the approval of the permanent members. Permanent members who have the right of veto can in fact veto elected members who vote on them.

This also means that the so-called world alliance is still under the control of the four major powers of the Entente, and it is also the most satisfactory way to deal with Britain, France, Russia and Australia.

As a result, although the seat of the World League is located in Geneva, Switzerland, which is the place where the Geneva Conventions were signed, the rights of the World League are held by the four major powers of the Entente, and the overall world situation has not changed at all.

The United States, which was the first to propose a system similar to the World Alliance, did not enter the World League because the US Congress did not recognize the Versailles Treaty.

This also deprived the only country that had the opportunity to compete with the four major powers of the Entente the right to compete in the world alliance, and also left the other small and medium-sized countries in the world alliance without any room for resistance.

After all, if they joined the World League, Britain and France might be fairer in terms of face.

But if it is a non-world alliance country, even if it is invaded by any major power, it can only consider itself unlucky.

With the establishment of the World Alliance, delegates from all over the world returned from Paris. As agreed by the World League, all Member States will meet in Geneva every three months, and participation is compulsory.

This led to the immediate decision of the Prime Minister of Kent to send a diplomatic team to Geneva so that he could participate in the meetings in Geneva at any time.

After all, Australasia is not a short distance from Geneva, and it takes at least two months to make a round trip.

If you are coming to Geneva from Australasia, you will either be in a meeting or on your way.

Throughout the peace talks at the Paris Peace Conference, Australasia was also nervously preparing for the partition ceremony and the victory parade.

In order to celebrate the victory of this war, the government and the royal family will also have a large number of activities and free distribution of materials, and strive to achieve the effect of national celebration.

When the Prime Minister of Kent's diplomatic team returns to Australasia, it will be time for the ceremony and event to take place.

Perhaps this was also the last event for Sydney as the capital, and with the victory of the war, it was decided to put the plan to move the capital on the agenda as soon as possible, and to develop the Murray River basin as soon as possible, which would also benefit the development of Australasia.

The environment in the Murray River basin is much better than it was 100 years later, and it is the last chance for the development of this area.

If it is delayed for a while, it will only become more and more difficult to develop this area, and the consumption of government, manpower and materials will become more and more serious.

In May 1918, as the diplomatic team led by the Prime Minister of Kent was about to arrive in Sydney, the ceremony was in the final stages of intense preparations.

On 15 May, Prime Minister Kent arrived in Sydney and immediately met with Arthur to report on the results.

Just three days later, on May 18, 1918, the Australasian nobility was crowned and the war victory celebration officially began.

"All my people, I am glad to be here and to join you in celebrating the victory in this war.

All of you, all of you, have contributed immensely to this war. After more than three years of hard work, we finally ushered in this great victory.

And you, my beloved people, you are the greatest contributors to this victory, and Australasia is proud of you! ”

After lamenting the victory of the war and the efforts made in the war, this celebration finally ushered in the climax of the ceremony, that is, the division of all the meritorious people.

Unlike the traditional elaborate and lavish ceremonies of the old aristocracy, the new Australasian aristocracy was frugal and public.

Arthur's purpose is to let everyone see the scene of the new nobles, which can not only inspire the confidence of the new nobles, but also make those who watch become fanatical.

As for whether the too simple sealing ceremony would make these nobles who were divided dissatisfied, Arthur smiled and said that he thought too much.

The vast majority of those who were divided were commoners or middle class, and they were ecstatic to be able to become the new nobles, not to mention being divided by Arthur himself in front of tens of thousands of commoners.

As for the old aristocracy who paid attention to tradition and ritual, well, apart from Arthur, it seems that Australasia did not either.

"In view of your significant contribution to the country and to the Crown, I declare that you will be honoured with the title of Sir Ludwig Cole, Hunt, and Andrew, and you will be the glorious Lord of Australasia, guarding the country in a new capacity. Your courage and honor will be an example to all, and you will be heroes of the nation. "The knighthood, as the lowest title of nobility that cannot be inherited, has the lowest threshold for obtaining it among all titles of nobility.

According to statistics, the number of people who were awarded knighthoods was close to 200, which is enough to see how exaggerated the scale of this ceremony is.

This, of course, was the reason why Arthur was eager to expand the size of the Australasian aristocracy. If it weren't for the small size of the Australasian aristocracy, Arthur would not have exaggerated to more than 200 knights at one time.

"I will fight for His Majesty and the royal family, I will fight for the country, I will fight for the people. God bear witness to my oath that I will devote my life to His Majesty and the royal family, and to forge the glory of knighthood with sword and blood! ”

All the people who were divided stepped forward with tacit understanding, knelt down on one knee in front of Arthur, and said their oaths relatively neatly.

Jazz TitleAustralasian unique nobility title and representative of Australasia's new nobility.

Therefore, the oath of knighthood is also more unique, which is adapted by Archbishop Stede from the oath of medieval knighthood, and fits the elements of the Australasian knighthood.

Arthur's gift to these new nobles was a specially made dagger with the name of each knight nobleman inscribed on one side, and when they were conferred knighthood.

On the other side are engraved the words loyalty, bravery, blood, fearlessness, and justice, which are also Arthur's expectations for these new nobles.

The knighthood is followed by the baronial title of a higher rank.

Although the baron is theoretically only the lowest of the hereditary true nobility in Australasia, the number of people who have obtained the title of baron this time is not very large, and there are only a dozen people who are full of them.

The director of Theodor, who was responsible for the development of the aircraft, and the head of the engine plant, Diesel, was also awarded the title of baron, which is also the highest title currently received by a scientific researcher.

Of course, many scientists and researchers who contributed to Australasia, such as Benz and Ludwig, also received knighthoods.

The knighthood has been divided into nearly 200 people, of which more than 30 are scientific researchers, which is enough to show that Arthur attaches great importance to scientific research.

In fact, this has indeed won the gratitude and enthusiasm of many scientific researchers, after all, it is something that many people would never dream of obtaining the title of nobility of the country through scientific research.

In addition to these scientists, including the commanders of several divisions, Arthur's three prime ministers since he became monarch, and the six colonial governors of Australia during the colonial period, all of them received the title of baron.

Several division commanders have also served as commanders-in-chief of the Australasian Expeditionary Force, and their performance during their tenure is also good, which can be regarded as hope for the promotion of the military.

Needless to say, the three prime ministers have made indelible contributions to the development of Australasia in the past ten years, and it is natural that they will receive an award-winning knighthood.

As for the remaining colonial prime ministers, giving them titles is also a woo for them, after all, they can give up the opportunity to return to the British Empire and continue to stay in Australasia, which can be regarded as a trust in Arthur.

Moreover, these six prime ministers (including Prime Minister Evan) have not caused any trouble for Arthur so far, but they are still behind the scenes, and they are all very serious about Arthur's orders.

Allowing these people to obtain the title of baron is also a hope for those seniors. Even if the ability is not too strong, as long as they are loyal to the royal family and the country, and work hard for the royal family and the country for a lifetime, Arthur and the royal family will never forget the efforts of these people.

Except for the knight and the baron, no one has obtained the higher level of earl for the time being. After all, Australasia's performance in World War I was indeed not much, and no one's credit was so great that he could be made an earl.

Of course, there is another important reason, and that is that the count has almost reached the top of the commoner aristocracy.

Theoretically, however, commoners could be promoted to the rank of duke, but this was too difficult to do without Arthur's appreciation.

Unless Australasia is granted an unexpectedly large amount of land, or Australasia is saved from extinction, neither of these demands is currently realistic.

Australasia is currently able to expand in the direction of the Arabian Desert in the Middle East and the remaining Dutch East Indies.

The occupation of these two areas was not difficult, but rather laborious, and did not fit Arthur's current development plans.

Australasia's rule was also very stable, and there was no danger of extinction.

At present, it seems that unless he has made a fairly outstanding contribution to science and technology, or waited until the future World War II.

Before that, it was not an easy thing to become a duke by merit.
