Eduardo wants Castile to enter the Imbilia League, so Portugal will definitely not let Castile enter easily.
If it is so easy to get in, will the Castilians cherish it? Only after many tests and time can the Castilians understand that the Imbilia Alliance is their best destination and the best place for their small country in the world.
The best choice on.
The countries of the true Umberian Alliance must sign nine treaties: "Umberian Military Alliance", "Umberian Border Integration Regulations", "Umberian Free Movement Agreement of Citizens", "Umberian Customs Integration Union", "Yumian Unification"
"Market Agreement", "Imbian Unified Legal Organization", "Imbian Monetary Union"... The Imbian Union under the control of Portugal is a combination of the EU plus NATO and Schengen. Joining the Imbian Union means that your interests are completely bound.
It's one.
The Castilians have a glorious past. Although they are now beaten into dust by Portugal, many of them are still unconvinced. On the contrary, because of their failure, many people firmly hate Portugal and the Imbilia Alliance countries led by him.
Now the Castilians need to be tamed, first with a big stick and then with carrots, and the big stick must be painful and the carrots must be given less in order to tame them.
The Castilians were destitute after losing the war, but there are still many people who are still very trustworthy, so Portugal will naturally let them fall into hell first, and then give them some sweetness and upload them again
.
Eduardo, the advocate of reflectionism, has long been Portugal's staunchest follower. He and the reflection group he led had been infiltrated a long time ago, so the Portuguese had been secretly building momentum for him after the war.
Castile's post-war cabinet was almost all radical nationalists and had been seeking foreign aid and foreign investment support to fight against Portugal.
However, when Castile was still Spain, its value was not as good as Portugal. Now there is only a little bit of mainland left. Murcia and Cantabria along the coast have become autonomous regions and have the right to become independent from Castile.
The value is even lower.
Even the United States, a staunchly anti-Portuguese country, would not invest even half a cent in Castile. In return, Portugal could launch another war. Even if it did not launch a war, it would make all its seaport areas independent and let them
Became a landlocked country under siege.
From the end of the war at the end of 1911 to the eight cabinets before Eduardo took office as prime minister on June 1, 1911, no matter how well nationalism played, the people of Castile were actually plunged into dire poverty and the people's will was slow.
Their pride has been eradicated, and they just want society to settle down first, no longer hungry, no longer poor, no longer without jobs.
Eduardo's rise to power was something the Castilians had no choice but to try. After all, the previous cabinets of various nationalities and ideologies failed to bring the people out of the fire, so he could only try.
In the early days of his administration, Eduardo practiced his own reflectionism and apologized to the Imbilia Alliance to seek diplomatic normalization.
Although this has been fiercely criticized and spurned by many people and politicians, before Eduardo took office, he said that it would take four months to change the current situation in Castile.
If there is any censure during these four months, or even the overthrow of his cabinet, he will use the emergency law to deprive him of it all. Even if the impeachment and removal process is legal, he will use the emergency law to declare it illegal.
Before Eduardo came to power, he made it clear that it would take four months. He had already said that ugly thing. If you don't believe it, don't choose him. If you choose him, you have to give him time, so he is confident.
Therefore, when Eduardo began to reflect on diplomacy, many people did not fiercely oppose him and overthrow him. Even in Congress, the impeachment and removal process was not passed because of a few votes.
Most people in Castile can no longer stand the hardship, so many people want to see what changes Eduardo can bring to everyone in four months.
After all, the cabinet has been replaced many times, but the medicine has not been changed. Everyone is so sensitive that they don’t want to drink the chicken soup of nationalism. They don’t want to have no jobs or bread anymore.
Countries around the world have given up on them, and Castile is already an international orphan without any assistance, so if it can get support from Portugal and the Imbilia Alliance, it will be accepted even if it is embarrassing.
Eduardo's policy of reflection was implemented quite smoothly during the diplomatic visit. Although Eduardo's apology was embarrassing, many Castilians also saw that the Kingdom of Aragon, the Kingdom of Andalusia, the Kingdom of Navarre, and the Portuguese Empire were all
Accepted his apology, re-established diplomatic relations with Castile, and initially got rid of the international orphan situation.
When Eduardo applied to join the Imbilia League on behalf of Castile, although he was rejected, it was not without results.
On July 191, after Eduardo's efforts and negotiations, Castile signed the "Imbilia Unified Market Agreement" with the Imbilia Alliance in Lisbon.
After signing the "Imbilia Unified Market Agreement", Eduardo returned to the national capital. Amidst numerous condemnations and insults in the parliament, he confidently shouted that he had brought hope to Castile.
The signing of the "Imbilia Unified Market Agreement" means that Castile's goods can enter the Imbilia market, and the goods of the Imbilia Alliance can also enter the Castilian market.
The signing of the "Imbilia Unified Market Agreement" put Eduardo on the fire. The opposition called him a traitor who betrayed the country's interests. Many fierce patriots initiated suicide against him.
The signing of this agreement undoubtedly has advantages and disadvantages. The key depends on whether Castile is capable. If Eduardo is incompetent, it means that the country has become an economic colony and people's lives will only become more difficult.
In that case, Eduardo will definitely be cut into pieces by the angry people, and the reflective policy will be trampled into the quagmire and will never be believed again.
However, Eduardo had Portugal give him a series of assists to tide him over. In the name of the Imbian League, Portugal gave Castile one million tons of low-price wheat aid of 1 billion joint dollars, and 600 million joint dollars.
Yuan low-interest loan, and finally gave Castile a half-year market protection period, but it was normal for Castilian products to enter the Imbilia League.
In later generations, 1 million tons of grain can feed 30 million people three meals a day for about 36 days, and can feed 30 million people three meals a day for half a year. However, Castile, with a population of less than 9 million, received 1 million tons of food aid.
, it can undoubtedly last for a long time.
After Eduardo received the food aid, he immediately began to provide free meals to about 1 million people who were in hunger crisis, including two meals a day, breakfast and dinner, totaling six loaves of bread.
Eaters have short mouths and take others softly. With bread to eat, more and more people are beginning to believe in Eduardo's reflective thoughts. Seeing this situation, the opposition can only say that if Eduardo cannot lead the people to repay the 3.6 billion loan,
Then Castile became a slave of Portugal and had to be oppressed to pay off its debts.
While solving the food crisis, Eduardo immediately opened large-scale mines, built water conservancy projects, built transportation, and built urban low-rent housing... Eduardo's work-for-relief model for large-scale infrastructure construction eliminated the unemployed population and promoted agriculture.
, industrial development.
After Castile lost important areas such as Andalusia, agriculture suffered a huge blow. Fortunately, although the old and new basins of Castile are not as good as the lost areas, if large-scale water conservancy is built, then
Large-scale agricultural production can still be carried out.
However, the construction of water conservancy facilities was cheaper for landowners, because during the turbulent period before Eduardo came to power, many farmers lost their fields. Some of these farmers became tenant farmers, and many more moved into cities to make a living.
It is also because of the large influx of farmers into the city that the already difficult life in the city has become even more uncomfortable. Slums have been built in the city, and the order has become turbulent and dark.
However, after the arrival of 1 million tons of food aid, coupled with the work-for-relief program, and Eduardo's imitation of Portugal's comprehensive crackdown, Castile's chaotic and turbulent social order quickly settled down.
The social order is stable, and Eduardo sells national assets on a large scale to the Imbilia Alliance to obtain more than 3 billion joint dollars. This money, plus Portugal's 600 million aid, is used by Eduardo as an anchor to stabilize the currency and is linked to Viletta, allowing Eduardo to stabilize the currency.
The Castilian market quickly stabilized.
From the signing of the "Imbilia Unified Market Agreement" in July 1919 to the end of the protected market period in January 1913, Eduardo worked hard in various ways to successfully bring Castile into a stable and weak currency.
The exchange rate has also dropped from the original ratio of 1:1 to the United Dollar exchange rate to between 110:1 and 18:1.
After the protective market period ended, Castile did not fall into the real abyss after being crushed by the Imbian Alliance commodity market as the opposition thought.
Castile also has advantageous products, namely ores, livestock, woolen textiles, and wine, plus supporting Portuguese industries. Therefore, after entering the truly unified market, the Castilian market has not been overwhelmed.
The Castilian market was completely stabilized due to its integration into the larger market.
The exchange rate has changed from 110:1~18:1 to 130:1~170:1, which clearly shows that Castile has been integrated into the Imbilia Unified Market.
The successful integration of Castile into the Unified Market of Imbilia made Eduardo, who was still harassed by some public opinions, completely straighten his back and his voice became louder.
The success of Eduardo's governance and the stable development of Castile made his reflective thoughts thoroughly popular throughout the country.
The idea of reflection has become popular among all classes of students and intellectuals in the country. Similarly, after tasting the benefits of entering the unified market of Imbilia, Eduardo made Castile fully and truly join the concept of joining the Imbilia Alliance.
, and it is increasingly supported by the public.
However, the more the Castilians hoped to join the Imbilia League, the more difficult Portugal made it.
