PreviousBack to directoryNext
On November 11, 1912, Tangning Pedro signed and approved the new Luxembourg planning document in the former Grand Residence of Luxembourg, now located in the Royal Palace of Luxembourg.

"Dear, this planning document is too radical. If it is announced, many Luxembourg citizens will fiercely oppose it."

Although Mary is not interested in politics, she still has a basic sense of politics and is very aware of the current ethnic conflicts in Luxembourg society. Many Luxembourgers are very opposed to immigrants from Germany.

This new policy sets ambitious goals and calls out a loud banner to build Luxembourg, located in the heart of Western Europe, into the "Heart of Heavy Industry" in Europe.

In the final analysis, this new Luxembourg plan is to further heavy-industrialize Luxembourg, which is currently a heavy industrial base, and increase investment in steel, chemicals, and biopharmaceuticals. Luxembourg will expand its existing steel and automobile plants, etc., and build new ones.

A large number of factories for synthesizing ammonia, sulfonamides, erythromycin and roxithromycin.

Such a large investment shows that the Portuguese imperial government attaches great importance to Luxembourg. Luxembourgers can feel this, but many Luxembourgers now feel that the status quo is very good and there is no need to go further.

Since Luxembourg joined the Portuguese Empire, with the empire's resource investment and financial support, Luxembourg's industry, economy, and people's livelihood index have soared, and the quality of life of Luxembourg people has greatly exceeded that of neighboring countries such as Germany, France, and Belgium.

Luxembourg has a sparse population of more than 200,000 people, which is simply not enough to meet the needs of the expanding industrial population, so it has begun to absorb migrant workers, and the Germans, whose population is exploding, are the main body of these migrant workers.

There are currently about 150,000 foreigners in Luxembourg. If the new plan is finalized, the foreign population will definitely exceed 200,000, and it is not impossible to overtake the local population by then.

Nationalism was prevalent in Europe at this time, but Luxembourg did not have any grand nationalism at the beginning. However, after Pedro's proposal and Guillaume IV's operation, through political control, historical transformation, and public opinion manipulation, with the addition of

Living standards have always been good, and Luxembourg democracy has been successfully established.

It's just that this time was not that time. Luxembourg, which had been under control for nearly ten years in order to prepare for the First World War, began to let the wolves enter the country step by step under the operation of Downing Pedro and Guillaume IV.

Of course, the Germans will not let go of the opportunity to infiltrate Luxembourg. Now in Luxembourg, Germany's presence has reappeared and is slowly growing. The most obvious thing is that the originally dominant Civic Party has begun to be impacted. The Prime Minister

For the sake of the overall situation, Paul Inschen began to recruit pro-German factions into the cabinet.

Paul Inschen is the most talented person in Luxembourg and the most patriotic person. He has been in this position since he became prime minister on September 22, 1888. He has been regulating the parliament and maintaining the nativist and pro-French parliament.

The balance between the pro-German faction and the pro-German faction.

Ten years ago, Luxembourg began democracy and internal control. The foreignist faction in the Luxembourg Parliament began to be suppressed and was finally swept out. The local citizen faction became the dominant family. This period was the most comfortable thing for Paul Inschen.

.

"Tang Ning, are you so convinced that the European War will happen?" It's not that Mary doesn't believe her husband, it's just that she really can't imagine the brutal war that Tang Ning said has been engulfing the world for a long time.

"The Three Kingdoms Alliance versus the Three Kingdoms Entente, the world structure is already like this. Could it be that they are doing this just to play house? As long as the contradiction is big enough, the war will not stop.

When the European War begins, it will definitely be ten, fifty, or even a hundred times more powerful than the Russo-Japanese War."

Tangning Pedro has this confidence as a time traveler. The First World War was so terrifying. Even the massacre of millions of people by the Z tribe occurred in World War II. The First World War was not without it. The native chicken did an outstanding job in this aspect.

"As soon as the war starts, I will remove all the real Luxembourgers, and the remaining ones will be used as expendables."
