The increase in immigration has undoubtedly made the East African colonies have stronger development potential, but the population growth has also increased the difficulty of colonial management, especially the current chaotic administrative planning of the East African colonies, which has made it more difficult to manage the colonies.

As a result of this situation, Ernst had to systematically replan the administrative structure of the East African colonies and set up a new administrative governance system, so that under the new administrative divisions, the colonies could be better counted and the plans could be implemented according to the specific situation.

The Coastal District, for example, is the highest level of administrative unit in the current East African colonies that Ernst impromptuated, after the land and population reached a certain size.

The Solon Lake District and the Great Lakes District were established with reference to the Coastal District, but when they were established, they were only the size of a town in the Coastal District.

At the beginning, the number of colonial strongholds and the number of immigrants were very small, so it was easy to manage statistics.

The size of the population has now been reached, and a number of areas have developed, with the Littorals alone being more than the other colonies of East Africa combined.

In the Coastal District, a huge place, three levels of administrative divisions have been formed, one is the Coastal District, the capital is in the first town, and it is also the seat of the highest ruling organ of the colony.

Further down is the first town, the second town...... Such a small town is relatively densely populated.

Below the towns of the first town, the second town, etc., are the villages that have just been laid out, and they are spread around six towns.

In other areas, in addition to the nondescript Solon Lake District, and the Great Lakes Region, there are scattered strongholds such as Karonga and Mbeya, but they are actually on the same level as the first three.

All in all, the current administration of the East African colonies is chaotic and the names are arbitrary.

After a long time on the map with pencils and a measuring stick, a primary administrative division of the East African colonies was created.

First of all, the supreme administrative hub of the East African colonies, the East African colonial government, was still established in the first town, and the first town was planned separately from the coastal area, of which the second town was also included in the first town.

This is followed by the provincial administrative regions of the East African colonies, also known as the regions, which are divided into ten blocks.

The original Primordial District was renamed the Upper Primordial District, with the third town (Kitunga) as the seat of the administrative organ.

Underneath the Upper Primorsky are naturally two new districts to be planned, the Centrine Primordial Province, with the Rusen Belt along the Rufigi River as its capital, and the Lower Primorsky with Rhône Roda as its capital.

These three coastal areas are spread from north to south, close to the Sultanate of Zanzibar, reaching Kenya in the north and bordering the Portuguese in the south.

To the west of the Upper Binhai District, the Northern Plateau District was established, with the capital at Karatu.

To the west of the Central Coastal District, the Central Plateau District was established, and the capital was established in Dodoma.

To the west of the Lower Coastal District, the Lake District of East Malawi is established, with its capital at Songaia.

The Upper Lake Malawi District was established in the northern part of Lake Malawi, with its capital in Mbeya.

Then there was the establishment of the Great Lakes region around the Great Lakes (Lake Victoria) region by the East African colonies, with the capital at Mwanza.

To the east of Lake Solon (Lake Tanganyika), the district of Sauron was established, with its capital in Kigoma.

And in the middle of the district of Solon and the Central Plateau, a steppe district was established, with the capital in Tabora.

In this way, the administrative division of the ten regions of the East African colonies was completed.

They are: Upper Prime-Sea (Third Town), Medium-Prime-Sea (Russen Belt), Lower Primorsky (Lohnroda), Eastern Malawi Lakes (Songaia), Upper Malawi Lakes (Mbeya), Central Highlands (Dodoma), Northern Highlands (Karatu), Savannah (Tabora), Great Lakes (Mwanza), Solon (Kigoma).

Then there is the administrative division of the city, in addition to the capital of each region, there will also be some suitable places for population gathering to be divided into cities, such as Kalonga, which is located on the shore of Lake Malawi, because there is already Mbeya as the capital in the Upper Lake Malawi region, so Kalonga can only be divided into cities separately.

Finally, there is the most basic village, the natural village, which is generally managed by the surrounding towns as the center.

The current East African colonies do not have counties as administrative units, but instead have municipalities similar to the German regions, while the East African colonies are based on the states of the later German Confederation.

This administrative division design will be used as an administrative plan for the transitional phase, and future colonies in East Africa will change with the expansion beyond Tanganyika.

Among them, the Middle Coastal Zone, the Lower Coastal Zone, and the East Malawi Lake Zone are not under the actual control, which will also be a target for the expansion of the East African colonies in the future.

……

Two kilometres north of the new Upper Marina District, Manda Township, is the newly established village of Longka, which is under the administration of Manda Township.

The village is currently the northernmost village in the Upper Coastal District, with more than 400 villagers, including a five-member colonial security team formed by Chinese immigrants to guard against the invasion of indigenous tribes in the north.

Although the East African colonies had already carried out a displacement operation in the Upper Coastal District, due to manpower reasons, the nearby tribes were not completely encircled and suppressed, so there was still the possibility of tribal invasion.

After all, the East African colonies drove them around, but they also lost the land and environment on which they depended.

If new resources are not found to sustain their livelihoods, some indigenous people may take risks and enter the confines of the Upper Primordial Zone.

For the safety of these immigrants, the East African colonies arranged a village-level security team of five or six people in each village, the leader of which was a German, and was also the head of the village, responsible for the daily production activities of the village and the security of the village.

Liu Damao, an honest farmer in North China, originally had his own two or three acres of land in his former village, and when the year was good, he could still eat well.

This year, there was a drought there, and the wheat harvest was almost gone, and Liu Damao, who was forced to be helpless, could only borrow some grain from the landlord's family, although it met the temporary minimum living requirements, but Liu Damao's only two or three acres of land, which could not get enough grain, were also taken away by the landlord's family.

And it happened that Zhang Gensheng, who was in the same village, came back from the East African colonies to recruit people, and went to East Africa to open up wasteland, and Liu Damao, who was desperate, signed up.

In this way, Liu Damao had to choose to go to the East African colonies to earn a living, and Liu Damao, who had just arrived in the East African colonies, first went to the first town.

After registering, he was sent to the village of Ronka, and after a few days of traveling, he and his companions, led by the colonial security team, arrived in Manda Town, where they received basic necessities and production tools.

When he first arrived in Longka Village, Liu Damao felt that the environment here was not bad, the terrain was relatively open, and the vegetation was relatively dense, but such a good land was abandoned at will.

Longka Village belongs to the Tanga region of Tanzania in later generations, and the natural conditions here are very superior, which is suitable for agricultural development.

Under the leadership of the German village chief, Liu Damao and other villagers developed the land around Longka Village.

They built canals along the river, built water wheels, and brought the river water ashore, and along these canals they plowed the land, and patches of farmland were developed.

The soil here has been accumulated over thousands of years, and at the same time, no one has developed it, so the soil is very fertile and the crops are growing very well.

The food, clothing, housing and transportation of Liu Damao and others were covered by the East African colonies, so they had no worries, but they had to work on time every day to complete the planned production workload.

For example, there is a minimum amount of land that each person needs to develop every day. If these tasks were not done, food rations would be reduced, those who would be left behind would be punished, and the Germans would oversee the work, and the Chinese security forces under them would patrol the work of the immigrants.

The Chinese security forces in the village, whose weapons and ammunition were provided by the town of Manda, were responsible for the security of the village, and if the enemy was found, the German village chief would temporarily issue ammunition.

There are more than 100 small villages like Longka in the entire Xinshang Binhai District, which are managed by four town leaders.

The reason why small towns like Manda are slightly densely populated is that they are more advantageous, and most of them are close to abundant water sources, so the production conditions are better than these small villages.

In the East African colonies, there are also some towns that are less affected by the natural environment because they are located on the main transportation routes that connect the entire East African colonies.

At the time of the vigorous agricultural development of the Upper Coastal Area, an exploration team of the East African colonies had already begun to move south, and they were going to the Middle Coastal Area and the Lower Coastal Area planned on the map.

In the beginning, the expansion of the East African colonies was mainly to the western interior, so they neglected the southern regions close to the Sultanate of Zanzibar, and also focused on the later lakes of Victoria, Tanganyika and Malawi, as well as the later Tanzanian capital Dodoma and other important cities and regions.

Distracting from the colony, the southern part of the former coastal area was neglected, and now, Ernst's new administrative division of the East African colony has brought the southern part of Tanzania back into focus, so the colony has begun to move south.
