Chapter 712: Divide the Fruit

America Surrendered! 》

This was the headline of the news around the world at the end of November and the beginning of December, and it also marked the official end of the war, which was almost comparable in size to a world war (the number of countries involved).

It is indeed reasonable to think about it, no matter how strong Germany was at that time, it could not win the whole world, let alone the United States, which is really fighting the whole world now.

But what everyone didn't expect was that it was not the coalition forces that attacked Washington in the end, but the United States itself.

What everyone didn't expect was that the first thing MacArthur announced when he stormed Washington was to order all American troops to surrender to the coalition forces.

But in any case, the surrender of the United States is a good thing for the coalition forces, at least there is no need for the soldiers to make unnecessary sacrifices.

Of course, after the surrender of the United States, it naturally came to a more important link, that is, the time to divide the fruits of victory.

Because the British were the ones in charge of the war, this peace conference must have been held in London.

After negotiations between Britain, France, and Australia, the date of the peace talks was set for January 15, 1929, and the participants included all the countries of the United States and the United Forces.

Although Britain, France, and Australia have made initial compromises on the areas they occupy, the current situation is still slightly different from the previous negotiations, after all, Australia occupies almost half of the western United States, and Britain and France occupy only two or three states each.

Moreover, the U.S. government, which has suddenly undergone a change, also needs to be dealt with in a new way.

No one can guarantee how the current U.S. government will develop, and the best way to do that is to directly divide the U.S. and create several U.S.

Let these new Americas contain each other, so as to ensure that no great power level states are born in all regions of the United States.

Of course, although there are more than a dozen states in Australasia, Arthur really did not panic at all. After all, these states have no advantages other than their size, and even all the states occupied by Australasia may not have the combined population of a small New York state.

And Arthur didn't intend to annex all of them. While these states have great development value, they are a burden for Australasia, which has a smaller population.

At most, it is to prop up new states in these states, and then increase investment in these states and control them as their own client states.

Of course, everything will depend on how the peace talks will develop. After all, after Britain, France and Australia eat meat, they have to let several countries that also contribute to drink soup.

Anyway, the United States must be miserable this time, and the countries involved in the war are destined to share a mouthful of soup, which also means that the United States will be more divided than imagined.

After the end of the war, Arthur finally had time to look at the development of the country and make a certain layout for the development of the country before Christmas.

The first is Australasia's population shortage, which is finally being alleviated.

What's the solution?

Of course, it was the newly defeated United States that brought people to Australasia. Although Australasia was at war with the United States not long ago, this did not have much impact on Arthur's plans.

After all, the Australasian army did not massacre American civilians during the war, and even the order of the American states under the control of Australasia was better than that of the states controlled by the United States government.

What's more, after MacArthur's coup d'état, he succeeded in shifting the blame on the U.S. government and President Hoover, regardless of his influence on the U.S. government.

This will make the American people blame President Hoover and the administration for all the faults of the war, and the United Army side will naturally be righteous.

Since it is just, then the American people naturally will not blame Australasia. They would even thank Australasia for liberating them and freeing them from the government.

Although the West Coast controlled by Australasia has a relatively small population, the East Coast of the United States has a large population.

For example, the population of New York State has exceeded 10 million, and a significant proportion of these 10 million people are British immigrants.

Although they have been assimilated for a long time, there are some differences between these people and traditional immigrants of British origin.

Either way, it must be easier for Americans who also speak English to rule than Europeans who speak other languages.

Of course, when absorbing the population from the United States, it is necessary to pay attention to more detailed screening of the population.

After all, the United States is a republic, and the American people are more open-minded than Europe.

This kind of openness refers to the openness of ideas, and they are more likely to participate in demonstrations against the government, and they are more likely to have different opinions about the government's policies.

This is something to be guarded against, as there is no guarantee that these future Americans will participate in demonstrations against the government when they come to Australasia, and how much they will approve of Arthur's rule.

Another point is the control of black Americans.

Although the population of the United States is in the hundreds of millions, a significant part of them are black, which Arthur did not allow to introduce to Australasia.

The ability of black people to dye is still terrible, even if they marry people of other races, the children born will still be black, which is a heavy blow to the ethnic composition system of Australasia.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if Arthur only brings in a few thousand blacks now, it will evolve into hundreds of thousands or even millions in the course of decades or even hundreds of years of development.

This was a big problem for the rule of later monarchs, and Arthur naturally tried to put an end to it, and even reminded all future monarchs to be wary of blacks.

The good news is that, if nothing else, France will become a reference for Australasia in the future.

With France as an example, I believe that future monarchs will also understand Arthur's intention to eliminate blacks.

The hundreds of millions of people in the United States can provide at least hundreds of thousands of immigrants to Australasia every year, which is a good complement to the population of Australasia.

With these immigrants from the United States, Arthur will also be able to more liberalize restrictions on other European immigrants and attract more people to Australasia.

Especially in this economic crisis, there is almost no shortage of ordinary immigrants, and this is also the most suitable time for Australasia to develop.

When the economic crisis is over, countries will tighten regulations on imports and exports, and it will be difficult to attract more immigrants.

The war also made Arthur even more curious, how would the world develop without the United States?

Will this economic crisis end early, or will it become worse because of the war?

This is an unknown problem for Arthur, but there is no need to worry about it for the time being. After all, Australasia has not been affected by the economic crisis at home, and the impact of imports and exports can also be filled by the Philippines, Kalimantan and the occupied West Coast of the United States.

As for whether the people of the West Coast of the United States will reject Australasian industrial products, it is not up to them to decide.

Isn't it reasonable for the states on the West Coast to cut off their economic ties with the United States after becoming independent?

As long as the economic ties with the former United States are severed, the prices of industrial goods in the West Coast states are bound to rise.

After all, to put it bluntly, except for California, the West Coast states of the United States have little or no industry, and the scale of production of industrial products is destined to not meet the needs of the American population on the West Coast.

In this way, it became a matter of course that large quantities of Australasian industrial products quickly entered the market on the West Coast of the United States.

Since it crossed the entire ocean into the West Coast of the United States, a slight increase in prices must be very reasonable.

However, there is a premise for such a plan, that is, the states on the West Coast of the United States should try to get rid of the impact of the economic crisis.

The West Coast of the United States has a weaker economy than the East Coast, and the good thing is that they are less affected by the economic crisis.

As long as the West Coast states can temporarily escape the effects of the economic crisis, these millions of Americans will become loyal consumers of Australasian industrial goods, and their desire for industrial goods is even higher than that of the Philippines and Kalimantan combined, and the benefits are destined to exceed those of the Philippines and Kalimantan combined.

It's actually quite understandable. Compared with the Philippines and Kalimantan, which were formerly indigenous, Americans consider themselves civilized people in developed countries and are naturally more willing to use advanced industrial products.

And the economy of the United States is definitely stronger than that of the Philippines and Kalimantan, which will lead to Americans having more spending power and naturally more things to buy.

Arthur's first policy was for the government to vigorously attract immigrants from the United States.

At present, after the end of the war, there are certainly not a few American people who have lost confidence in the government and are uncertain about the future.

Coupled with the impact of the economic crisis, the willingness of these people to move to a new country will also be stronger.

The second policy is on the programme of administration of the occupied United States states.

Referendums in Alaska and Hawaii are already underway, and the government needs to prepare officials in advance to manage the two states in a timely manner after the results of the referendums are announced.

Alaska didn't need many officials as a royal domain, and Arthur would use it as one of the training grounds for the Guard, stationing at least one regiment of troops for a long time.

And the so-called elite special forces royal commandos established by Arthur will also train here, and they will be tested in the ice and snow, and eventually grow into good enough soldiers to perform various tasks.

Hawaii, on the other hand, is a bit more of a headache. Hawaii has a population of just over 300,000, but less than a quarter are white.

The rest of the population, in addition to the indigenous population of Hawaii, is made up of immigrants from Asia.

The majority of these immigrants are islanders and Filipinos, and many are from other Asian countries.

Moreover, Hawaii itself is not a state of the United States, but a consolidated territory established by the United States.

The idea of Hawaii as a new state in Australasia, or a new colony, was what Arthur was currently considering.

3000 words for the second update, ask for a monthly pass, ask for support!

The description of the war is really too bad, so let's just end the war and start the content of national development.

The division of the American plan brothers has good suggestions to communicate in the group, and an empire across the Pacific is about to be born.
