In addition to the large number of orphans caused by the war in Paraguay, the largest number of them were single-parent families and single women.

The war in Paraguay is not over yet, but it is estimated that there are at least 70,000 widows and orphans who have lost their husbands and fathers.

With the intervention of the Black Shingen Foundation, some people have left this land of right and wrong to start a new life in East Africa.

At the end of the previous Paraguayan War, the project could last for three or four years.

Before the establishment of the new government in Paraguay, the East African colonies could absorb at least tens of thousands of Paraguayan immigrants, and if the coordination was good, it was not impossible to have hundreds of thousands.

This kind of thing can be done during the war, after all, as a small population country, Paraguay has a small number of people, and the scale before the war was only five or six hundred thousand (some data say more than one million, after all, many countries did not have a census in that era).

The East African colonies were cutting Paraguay's roots, but Paraguay was not without solutions.

Originally, Paraguay is a country of immigrants, and it is enough to absorb more immigrants in the future, of course, this is no different from farting, if immigrants are so easy to recruit, Ernst will not be so difficult to do.

Moreover, after the war, Paraguay was cut off a large area of land, and the country was in ruins, which immigrant wanted to come to Paraguay for development so long-sightedly, and Brazil and Argentina next door were not fragrant!

In this regard, the East African colonies are much stronger, although the East African colonies have not been developed for a long time, but they are already quite good places for the development of Africa (excluding North Africa).

The environment in East Africa, not to mention Argentina (after all, it is similar to Europe, immigrants do not have to adapt), is always similar to the Brazilian highlands.

In addition, the East African colonies recruited immigrants in a planned and premeditated manner, much faster than those in the Americas that relied on spontaneous immigration.

That is to say, the East African colonies would rather have a shortage than an abundance, and they would have rejected some ruffians, hooligans, and petty immigrants, and at the same time guarded against some immigrant groups that were not good for governance and stability, such as village parties and clans.

Otherwise, it would not be a dream to surpass the United States in the number of immigrants every year, and immigrants from the Far East alone would rank first in the number of immigrants in the world.

This is not an exaggeration, because it is quite difficult for modern immigrants to buy a ticket, unless they can encounter the situation of urgent recruitment in some colonies, and the problem is that this situation is not continuous.

It is not that there are no countries that want to build colonies to feed themselves, the British in the Americas put a lot of effort back then, and the last war of independence was all lost.

Therefore, Ernst was very strict with the immigration of the East African colonies, and prevented the emergence of anti-bones like the United States.

The United States was able to become independent because of its large number of elites, after all, the Mayflower fled to the United States not as refugees, but as intellectual and organized Puritans.

In the past life, there was a theory that Calvin's Puritanism was the foundation of the United States.

So Ernst had any theories and beliefs that might unite the immigrants, or blood and clans...... Greatly repulsed.

The East African colonies did not even have missionaries and churches, and the immigrant faith was in disarray, with Protestants, Catholics, Orthodox Christians, and even a small number of Greens.

The beliefs of immigrants from the Far East are even more confused, what ancestors, family immortals, God, the Jade Emperor, the city god...... Even some people who have a lot of contact with Western immigrants will guess God and Allah, which fully reflects its pragmatic thinking.

The East African colonies were similar in management to corporations, and Ernst naturally did not take the initiative to promote the construction of churches, and there was no idea of recruiting missionaries.

Most of the immigrants in East Africa are illiterate and old peasants, who have not systematically studied religion, and even if they spontaneously perform some rituals at home, they only know only a little about it, relying on the experience passed down from generation to generation.

Missionaries could communicate with the people through their right to interpret religion and at the same time through missionary activities, so Ernst strictly forbade religious people to enter the East African colonies.

Most of the immigrants in the East African colonies were ordinary people with little ambition, and most of the leadership were Germans who retired and returned to Germany to retire.

Coupled with the restraint of the loyal students of the Heixingen Military Academy, the Heixingen consortium has continuously enriched the leadership.

At present, the government of the East African colonies is quite stable and in a state of containment, and the only pivot that maintains the East African colonies is Ernst.

As for making trouble in the East African colonies, not to mention the containment between the parties, it is to leave the foreign trade system of the Heixingen consortium, and the economic structure of the East African colonies will disintegrate and collapse.

September 10, 1867.

Mogens Kroger.

Chief of the village of Ngaga, Ngaga, Lower Primorsky District, Lonroda City, Massasi Town, East African Colony.

He is taking the migrants assigned from Paraguay to the village of Ngaga to see their new homes.

"Ladies, the current conditions in East Africa are not very good, so the furniture and other facilities in these houses are still relatively simple, but the environment is definitely not bad."

Mogens Kroger pointed to the door and said:

"Do you see all the fertile fields? Isn't it a good feeling, considering that a year ago, the village of Ngagaga was a wilderness where only wild animals lived, and with the arrival of immigrants, the village of Ngagaga was developed at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, so there is no need to worry about the living conditions and future development prospects of the East African colony. It's far away from the war, and it's in good order, and with the government cleaning up the surrounding beasts, there are no signs of them, so it's very safe. ”

The translators were German-speaking residents of Paraguay, and although most of the immigrants who had fled the war in Paraguay to East Africa were Hispanic, the fragmentation and wars of the early years of German exile had led to a large exodus of Germans.

Now that Prussia has integrated the North German region, the flow of immigrants has cooled down, and the female translator is a German whose ancestors immigrated to Paraguay, so she is bilingual German and Spanish.

"And you are definitely in good time," said Morgens Kroger, "who, in order to take care of you orphans and widows caused by the war, His Royal Highness Prince Ernst of Prussia, the owner of the East African colonies, personally begged for money to subsidize you poor people, and the East African colonies provided your children with an education free of charge...... So live in Ngaga Village with peace of mind, and the future will be fine. ”

After listening to the introduction of the village chief Mogens Kroger, these Paraguayan women who have crossed the ocean from a distant country are relieved.

Some wept with joy and turned to God to wish Ernst good health.

They are also pitiful people who lost their husbands in the war, and the war is still going on, with no end in sight, so many people have to leave Paraguay to live in East Africa for the safety of their children.

Of course, the living allowance also gave them some determination, after all, the children can only rely on themselves in the future, and a subsidy can reduce their pressure.

Before coming to East Africa, I may have been worried that the local government would break its promise, but now that the house is divided, my heart has immediately settled down.
