one hundred and ninety-four

It was also during this year that the emperor of the Roman Empire, Justinian, took advantage of the internal strife in the Visionothic Kingdom. The main reason was that it was completely consistent with the internal strife in the Odogorthic Kingdom, which was the inconsistency in the cultural system, that is, the disputes about Christian cultural beliefs and who is orthodox. In addition, within the Visionothic Kingdom, their top leaders were also as extravagant and extremely debaucherous as the previous senior leaders of the Odogorthic Kingdom! The very crazy exploitation of civilians caused the civilians to be unable to cover their bodies and eat, so there was always civil war. The emperor of the Roman Empire, Justinian, also used it. As the emperor of the Roman Empire, he was the identity of God, and then mediated the reasons for this dispute and sent troops to the Visionothic Kingdom.

The Visigothic Kingdom still carried out relatively small-scale resistance, but in front of the Roman army, these small-scale resistances did not have much impact at all. It was like the vast sea that was boundless, and a small loach could make big waves? Another thing was that the Roman army was here to mediate, so it did not burn, kill, loot. At this point, the residents of the Visigothic Kingdom believed that the Roman emperor, that is, this God, came to save them, and would not carry out relatively crazy resistance at this point. In many cases, they would just open the city gates to welcome the Roman army.

Therefore, with this advantage, the Roman Empire quickly occupied the southeastern coastal area of ​​Spain. At this time, the Roman Empire had restored most of the territory of the former Roman Empire, so the Emperor Justinian of the Roman Empire was very happy and felt that he was expected to completely restore the huge territory of the former Roman Empire in this life.

But something happened, what was the accident? In fact, this accident was not strictly considered an accident. Why do we say that? In fact, after the Roman Empire grew stronger with democracy, it once again entered a society equivalent to slavery, that is, high-level nobles, and then rich people, which regarded the common people as tools of speaking.

Then we can also understand that, who doesn’t like extravagance? Who doesn’t like excessive lust? Who doesn’t like gold, silver and treasures? Who doesn’t like to be arrogant? So this has a very big series of problems. At this time, the Roman Empire system was some of the previous systems in China, which mean that farmers only had to pay taxes to the country as long as there were no special circumstances, which was generally like this. With special circumstances, such as large wars, then

Only the senior management will write an order with the pen in their hands, and then there will be legal mandatory recruitment, and then use legal orders to compulsory seize the food and wealth created by the farmers. Why do we say that this is legal? Because the existence of the empire is also indirectly protecting the stable life of farmers, so this kind of thing cannot be explained clearly. It feels that the country has reason, and the farmers have reason, but the country has no reason, and the farmers have no reason. In short, this is probably the case.

Then, although the system of the Roman Empire was very perfect and very good, the nobles and rich people below wanted to live a life of excessive debauchery and even extravagance, so they changed the perfect system of Rome. In other words, we in China said, "The sky is high and the emperor is far away!" Anyway, these nobles and rich people, no matter how they exploit civilians from afar, or how they kill civilians, or even use civilians as tools of speaking, and then create food and wealth for them. Anyway, the Roman emperor Justinian didn't know, and he would not do anything to them at this time, because the information at this time was very underdeveloped, and the territory of the Roman Empire was too large, which caused this situation.

Anyway, the places far away from the capital of Constantinople, the capital of the Roman Empire, such as the newly recaptured Western Roman Empire, are everywhere in the territory of the nobles and wealthy people persecuting civilians. In addition, the Christian Pope will also plunder the wealth of civilians, and it is in the name of God! At this point, people are really living in poverty.

However, the Roman Emperor Justinian, who was far away in Constantinople, did not know these situations, because the text written in the annual report documents were all very good, and there was nothing. The residents lived and worked in peace and contentment, and were even very hardworking.

However, the illusions reported by these nobles and wealthy people to the Roman emperor made Justinian believe it. So he was thinking about regaining the rest of the rest. However, the remaining people of the Western Roman Empire understood what kind of life was like before, and even more corrupt than their current top leaders. Moreover, after being regained by the Roman Empire, they had no chance to resist.

So this caused the Roman Emperor Justinian to send troops to regain other places, which was blocked by many parties. All the city-states and small countries were fighting back frantically. Some Christians even said that Roman Emperor Justinian was not God at all, he was just God pretending to be a demon. At this point, under this very crazy fight back, the senior leaders of the provinces on the edge of the Roman Empire were all extravagant and licentious, and their troops were very weak! Because the military expenditure was basically divided by their nobles and rich people, and the strength of the people was not enough to fill their stomachs and clothes. Even if it was forced to conscription, the soldiers who obtained this had no combat power, and were basically just those who died.

In the end, this series of problems led to Justinian, the emperor of the Roman Empire. No matter how he commanded the people on the frontier to send troops to recover the remaining Western Roman territory, he could not recover it. Moreover, the situation of fighting every day was simply terrible! The battlefield was full of corpses, and the smell of blood was permeated in the air and refused to dissipate for a long time. We can also think that the frontier area of ​​the Eastern Roman Empire is simply a purgatory on earth!

So from this time on, Justinian, the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire, never recovered any of the previous territory of the Western Roman Empire, and even the nature of the Roman army changed completely. After all, the generals who commanded the army changed, and after the recovery, Italy frantically plundered! This situation was not only hated by the local barbarians, but also hated by the common people of their own people in the Roman Empire! Therefore, this also caused three different concepts to arise between the emperor and the common people, and even between the nobles and the rich.

The Roman emperor Justinian believed that his system was perfect, conforming to the survival of the people, and could also be a powerful empire. The nobles and the rich believed that other people were tools of speaking, so it was right to exploit them or kill them, because in this way, they could continue their beautiful life of extravagance and even debauchery. The civilians believed that the Roman nobles and the rich, and even the emperor Justinian were all a group of demons, and they wanted to completely kill them.

It was also under these three terrible concepts that after more than ten years, the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire, Justinian, did not fulfill his ambition to unify the former Roman Empire. In 505, Justinian, the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire, died with his final regret!

After the Roman Emperor Justinian died with his final regret, because the new Roman emperor was about to take office, he was also corrupt and lived a life of extravagance and debauchery. The senior leaders of the Roman Empire began to work hard, not to mention the nobles and rich people in the provinces on the border. The entire Roman Empire seemed to have begun to decline again, and it was a real decline. It didn't take long for them to be rebelled everywhere in the territory of the recovered Western Roman Empire. The Eastern Roman Empire was corrupted by the high-level leaders, so the troops could only manage the Eastern Roman Empire. This loose management of the Western Roman Empire, and eventually, the territory recovered by the Roman Emperor Justinian was lost again under the uprising of the locals!

Although the emperors of the Eastern Roman Empire are indeed very angry about losing these territory, they do not have many troops. Moreover, after the split of the Western Roman Empire, they all believe that the emperors of the Eastern Roman Empire are the incarnation of the demons, so they will fight to the death, and this situation leads to a situation where the troops of the Eastern Roman Empire cannot be attacked at all.

It is not difficult to see from here that the Roman Empire did not last long under the rescue of the previous emperor Justinian. Now it seems that it is really not good, and it can be said that it has reached the point of being hopeless. Of course, according to our previous concept, as my previous view, we will completely kill the nobles and the rich, and then re-implement the concept of democracy, and then rise again. But this matter was originally a vicious cycle! Why do I say this? In fact, this is easy to understand. After the rise of democracy, new nobles will still be born. Then these rich people and nobles will still live a life of extravagance and debauchery, so they still need to use all the civilians as tools to speak, or commit randomly fabricated crimes to massacre.

No matter how we think, there is no better way to manage a country. After all, our human nature cannot be erased. Our nature is to like extravagance, licentiousness, and even more like power and superiority. So no matter how many times we kill nobles and rich people, they will still appear again with the development of the country. History is like this, and it has always been reinterpreted the same scene. Even in the modern day of our high-tech civilization, this problem has not been solved at all. This is exactly what we said before, democracy is actually just a lie.

However, China has also implemented an absolute legal society, which is the Qin Dynasty. If you have time, you can carefully find information to learn about it. I will give you a brief introduction here:
