Naturally, the new kingdom cannot continue to be called the Bo Ni Kingdom.
Mrs. M, who was watching the official live broadcast of the negotiations for the establishment of the United Kingdom on TV in a manor in the Kingdom of Boni, said to her adopted son:
"From the perspective of the United Kingdom in the 18th century, the original Boni Kingdom was just a loose alliance headed by the indigenous people. The leader of the alliance was called the chief, and several local kings within it were qualified to take turns to hold that position.
, initially because they were afraid of shooting the first leader and being targeted by a few of our Western colonists, the chiefs of the earth kings cunningly pushed the position of the chief to the weakest royal family in the alliance, the Bo Ni royal family, and also let their tribes
Earned the title of Bo Ni."
"According to the records of the kingdom, the Zheng family did not agree with it at first, because as a family from a civilized society, they certainly understood the principle of 'name and equipment should not be faked'."
Ling Lingqi nodded. Although he didn't know the allusion behind this ancient Chinese proverb, he could understand its meaning from its straightforward translation.
Margaret drank the lipstick tea for a while, and then continued:
"Sure enough, within a few decades, the Boni royal family quickly grew from the weakest tribe in the alliance to gradually grow from the weakest tribe in the alliance because of its great reputation. In addition, Boni later gave birth to two more powerful chiefs.
Taking advantage of the conflicts and wars between the colonists of Western countries, they stole many benefits and expanded the territory of the Boni Kingdom to the east, west, north and west directions of the entire island."
"And because most of Bonizhou Island at that time was still a deserted and uninhabited land, the Boni Kingdom at that time could be called the ruler of Boni. Even our empire paid special attention to Boni, and early on
Diplomatic relations and trade ties were established with it.”
"Moreover, they also annexed two large Tuwang tribes, becoming the largest force in the Boni Kingdom in one fell swoop, and successfully turned the originally loose alliance into a kingdom headed by the Boni royal family."
"Of course, the actions of the Boni royal family also accumulated a lot of grievances among the former allies. Otherwise, when the Wu family proposed to introduce new tribes to join the alliance to dilute the power of the Boni royal family, everyone would not be so full-hearted
It supported it, and it also laid the groundwork for our empire to later turn it into a protectorate!"
"It can be said that in the struggle between the forces headed by the Boni royal family and the Zheng family and other Tuwang alliances, most of the time, the Zheng family had the upper hand relying on the wisdom and wise decisions of the sages of Eastern civilization.
Those indigenous tribes acted as pig teammates and held them back, and the Boni royal family twice seized the opportunity to grow bigger."
Linglingqi said:
"So as to which country in the United Kingdom comes first, are they currently at odds with each other? I can understand Zheng's approach. If it were me, I wouldn't want someone from an indigenous tribe to put pressure on me.
superior."
However, during the negotiations in the following days, things went beyond Ling Lingqi's expectation.
When it came to deciding on the name of the United Kingdom, Dongning and Bo Ni did have a battle over who was in front and who was behind. But in the end, it was Zheng Jizong who came forward to appease the internal affairs before reaching a compromise with the other party. Of course, Dongning also took advantage of the situation.
In exchange for some favorable conditions, neither party suffered a loss.
The name of the new kingdom was finally decided as the "United Kingdom of Boni and Dongning". Of course, the Kingdom of Dongning is the name of the Xia language, and Western countries still habitually call it Formosa, which is Boni and Formosa.
Mosa United Kingdom.
The combination of the two families allowed this new country to occupy most of the civilized areas of Brenizhou Island, so it almost unified the entire Brenizhou Island. As for the unattended areas in the chaotic zone, no one regarded them as a real country.
power, and no one cares about them.
The people of Dongning Kingdom can also accept this. After all, they were originally part of the Boni Kingdom. Now that they form the United Kingdom after independence, it will not affect each other's independence.
We can also unify Bonizhou Island, the third largest island in the world, so why not?
You must know that after unification, the island will be unified both economically and politically. Just the cancellation or reduction of tariffs in various regions will greatly promote the commercial activities on the entire island and provide various industries on Bannizhou Island.
, each enterprise company has saved considerable costs, and it has also made the products in the new United Kingdom more competitive internationally.
It can be imagined that in the past few years, the business momentum within the United Kingdom of Boni and Dongning has definitely been on the rise.
This is good for everyone.
Therefore, no one on both sides opposes this move. All the people of the new United Kingdom hope that the new policy will be implemented as soon as possible so that they can all benefit from it and make a fortune.
As for the name of the United Kingdom, with Dongning in the front and Dongning in the back, apart from some radical elements in Dongning expressing dissatisfaction and protest, the Zheng family did not care about this after appeasing the government and most of the people.
False name.
And this is not without its benefits. At least it can give outsiders the illusion that the old Boni Kingdom in the United Kingdom is in the leading position. This can also reduce the presence of the Zheng family and the Dongning Kingdom.
After all, the Dongning Kingdom has gained too much limelight during this period. The biggest and most popular news in the world at the moment is their family's affairs.
This is not good. As a Xia descendant who is well versed in the principle of not revealing wealth, Zheng also understands that hiding it but showing strength appropriately is the most suitable approach for her family, so letting the Boni Kingdom take the lead can also reduce the fire.
This is how the entertainment industry and Western media play, creating a big news to offset the previous negative news, and people are good at forgetting it.
In this way, the independence incident of the Dongning Kingdom, which caused an uproar in the world and almost triggered a local war in Southeast Asia, reached the established fact amidst the consternation of the melon-eaters and in the weird plot of twists and turns.
It also led to the emergence of a new United Kingdom and the unification of the entire Boni Island.
As for the chaotic zone, it was subconsciously ignored by everyone. Even many foreign people didn't know that there was such a no-nonsense zone on Bannizhou Island.
Not to mention the establishment of the United Kingdom, vigorous institutional reform activities have also begun within the Dongning Kingdom.
It is similar to the previous prefecture-county restructuring in Sanlikun Autonomous Prefecture.
The capital of Sarao Autonomous Region was renamed "Tianxing", and Shiba, the capital of Shiba Autonomous Prefecture, was renamed "Wannian" to commemorate the two counties of Tianxing and Wannian established by Zhu Chenggong, the first king of Yanping.
Yangkou, an important commercial town under the direct jurisdiction of the royal family, was renamed "Siming" Prefecture to commemorate the former Siming Prefecture. In addition, Siming Prefecture, which originally governed the Jinxia Islands, was also the gateway for exchanges between Dongning and the mainland, indicating that the Zheng family
There is also the idea of using Yangkou as the gateway port for foreign exchanges in the New Kingdom.
As for the two autonomous regions of Jindian and Daiyan, their original names remain unchanged.
Officials in the Yiying Autonomous Region and the lower counties also select people with both ability and political integrity from various aristocratic families and original officials. Of course, mixing things up is inevitable, and it is impossible for the Zheng family and the royal government to really allow these people to serve.
independent.
Some local officials were also transferred to other places, and they were all promoted by half a level or one level. After all the arrangements were made, no one could tell what was wrong. Basically, everyone was happy. The future development will depend on their own methods.
