Vicious competition is inevitable, this kind of thing is very common during the economic crisis, and it is not even a thing, some countries have encountered an economic downturn, and have long been ready to prepare for war, and Ernst will not name who it is.

Since 1870, East Africa has begun to change the cultivation of food crops in the past, and instead vigorously support the development of cash crops, in essence, East African food crops have been enough to support the development of the country, and the continuous decline in food prices is indeed not much oil and water. Food security is particularly important for a country, which is why East Africa has been heavily supporting food production while reducing support for cash crops.

In addition to the monarchs of various countries, there are also many countries outside Europe to participate, such as the Persian king Nasreddin came from thousands of miles to meet him, under the pretext of participating in the "Vienna World Expo", but the actual purpose is to see Princess Sissi, which quickly became a joke among monarchs.

The World's Fair was a great occasion to show his face, but Ernst was not interested in attending, mainly because of the sudden cholera outbreak in Vienna.

The transmission of cholera is mainly through water sources and bacteria, and Ernst naturally knows very well, but he doesn't need to shout all over the world, and he doesn't understand these things.

Facts have proved that cholera is not an isolated case, in India, the South Seas, the Far East, the United States, and Europe are all hard-hit areas, for example, Gorky's father died of cholera this year.

On the contrary, East Africa is out of place in this worldwide cholera epidemic, after all, East Africa is currently the most health-conscious country in the world.

In addition to this reason, the closure of East Africa has also prevented the spread of foreign diseases in East Africa, as a country of immigrants, East Africa has maintained the disinfection and isolation measures of migrants in port areas for so many years, and foreign epidemic diseases affect the coastal areas of East Africa the most.

The 19th century is often referred to as the "century of cholera", and cholera became the "world disease of the 19th century", so according to the eyes of later generations, the world in the 19th century had no habitable place.

Because of drinking boiled water and paying attention to hygiene, there is no cholera in East Africa, but there are many other diseases in East Africa, and it is still "malaria", an old friend, who has been with East Africa for the longest time and the most frequent for so many years.

It takes generations to eradicate malaria, and East Africa is accustomed to coexisting with "malaria", but although malaria is the main epidemic disease in East Africa, the actual outbreak rate is much lower than that of other countries at the same latitude, at the same level as temperate countries, and lower than that of subtropical and tropical regions.

Just as the Soviet Union fought the cold of Siberia through state power, East Africa also mobilized state power to invest heavily in health.

Mosquitoes and flies are known as the "most useless things" in the Kingdom of East Africa, and the power of the Ministry of Health extends from the center to the grassroots level, becoming one of the most important departments in East Africa.

In the 21st century, Africa was the worst region of the world in terms of cholera, and now in the most serious period of cholera in the world, East Africa is the lowest.

There is one country (region) with an exception, that is, India, which has not run away from almost every cholera pandemic in the world, and it is the hardest hit area, and it is still the same in the 21st century, which can be regarded as one of India's stubborn diseases.

The presence of many monarchs, the cholera epidemic, and the economic crisis all cast a shadow on the Vienna World's Fair, but it still could not stop people's enthusiasm for such a grand event.

In fact, the biggest negative impact on the Vienna World Expo was that the owners of hotels and restaurants in Vienna raised prices indiscriminately, and no matter how high their enthusiasm was, their wallets were quickly drained.

"In this fair, East Africa won a total of 441 awards, just one more than the United States, ranking 11th in the world, and the United States and Turkey tied for 12th, but the official official sent by the Far East government, the Englishman Bao La, protested to us, saying that we had stolen their awards."

"Well, why?" Ernst asked.

"Your Highness, some of our exhibited products in East Africa originated in East Africa, so there are many similarities, so it will cause controversy."

"So that's it! Ignore him! Ernst said.

It is easy to understand why there are exhibits in the East Africa Pavilion that overlap with the Far East, because some products in East Africa do originate in the Far East, such as tea and handicrafts, and there are so many Far East immigrants who immigrated to East Africa, and there are always some crafts that have also been passed on to East Africa.

If he was willing to protest, he let him protest, and Ernst was sure that no one would pay attention to him, because many of the judges at the World's Fair were "his own people".

If East Africa and the Far East had the same exhibits, the jury would have awarded the prize to East Africa, but in fact it was not only the Far East that had suffered, but Japan and North Korea were also victims, and Ernst had picked up a lot of good things from both countries.

If some of the crafts and products of the Far East were unintentionally brought to East Africa by immigrants and developed, then Japan and Korea were directly copied and pasted by the East African government on its own initiative.

As for why only Bao La protested to East Africa, it was because he was a Briton who naturally looked down on East Africa's behavior.

In fact, the Japanese people who participated in the meeting were about to crush their back molars, but they were afraid of the West and did not dare to express it.

"Koizumi-kun! You see this exhibit is obviously our great Japanese Yosegi Zaiku, now change the name, what Zimbabwean wood art appears here in a grand manner, and what is said by the Zimbabwean indigenous tribes to master the skills, this is obviously shameless plagiarism, the most hateful thing is that their exhibits also won awards, but our Yosegi joinery did not catch anything. ”

"Gui Sanjun, maybe it's really just a coincidence, after all, the world is so big, and some things are so incredible."

"Koizumi-kun, don't deceive yourself, it's a coincidence that Yoshigi is a coincidence, and is the folding fan also a coincidence? This kind of East African folding fan, the style is obviously Japanese, and they don't even bother to modify the painting on it! And if I'm not mistaken, this material is unique to our Japan, and they may even buy a fan directly from Japan and then change the name and participate in the exhibition. ”

This point is misunderstood in East Africa, how can it not be changed, there is no mass production value of exhibits, East Africa is impossible to use to exhibit, there is a market East Africa will be used to exhibit.

The answer is that there is no shady scene in this World Expo, and the shady curtain is very large, more than 90 percent of the exhibits in East Africa have won awards, and even surpass the United States.

As for Austria's preference for East Africa, it is because Ernst is now a guest of honor in the Austrian government, and solving the problem of steel surplus alone has greatly relieved the pressure on the Austrian government.

For this reason, the Austrian government and the Habsburgs awarded many medals and honors to Konstantin and Ernst, and the Heixingen company received many similar titles.

In fact, the Heixingen consortium won more than 700 awards at the Expo, which were not counted on the head of the East African Kingdom, but as exhibits from Germany and Austria-Hungary.

Austria took first place with more than 6,000 prizes, and Prussia also took second place with more than 5,500 prizes (5,991 for Austria and 5,066 for Prussia in history).

It is very telling that Austria can be the first, so it is understandable that the East African kingdom can follow the mixed soup.
