When the stability of the empire is reduced to a certain level, coupled with policy factors, it is extremely easy for rebellion to occur.
But that doesn’t mean stability is the first factor.
The key is to have a leader.
When dissatisfaction accumulates to a certain level, and a capable person with his own ideas comes along, inciting a riot is not a problem.
There has been such a thing in Daxia before. The traditional festival food incident is an example, but it didn't go too far.
The development direction of the Lanxi Empire is a harmonious empire, and the stability within the territory has always been good.
And the reason for this rebellion.
It was because it absorbed a large number of people some time ago and failed to manage it properly for a while, which led to the situation.
As mentioned before, stability is not the only criterion for rebellion.
Even if the stability reaches 80%, at least 10% of the people do not agree with the empire's development policy.
Their demands vary.
There are always people who will not be satisfied with food, clothing, housing, transportation, food, drinks and entertainment, let alone some anti-social people.
Under all peaceful scenes, criminal organizations still exist. If they are not dealt with, major cases will appear from time to time.
In addition, there is the ultimate wish of the population of the defeated country.
Restoration!
"Rebellion?" Cortana opened her eyes wide and looked at Charlemagne.
Charlemagne smiled bitterly, "The people of the three defeated countries were placed on the Parthian colonial planet, and they were each assigned to several urban areas."
"Now it seems that some die-hards are unwilling to submit to Lanxi's rule. They organized the people of the two cities, and after seizing military power, they drove warships to attack the star base."
Charlemagne shared the star map information, and you can see on it that there is a red ship symbol in a galaxy.
"..." Looking at the picture, Cortana was silent for a moment, and then reported it to Chu Hua.
Chu Hua was stunned when he saw the news and looked at the star map.
There are many blue ship signs in the Lanxi Empire, which are their self-defense fleets.
In the Parthian galaxy, enemy ships appeared inexplicably and were fighting against the blue-marked fleet.
"Good fellow, are folk customs so tough?" Chu Hua said in surprise.
"Logically speaking, rebellion should only occur in the Orange Cat Empire, but why is it that the Lanxi Empire is in trouble instead?"
Chu Hua is no stranger to rebellion.
There is always someone in the chat channel who is broadcasting the progress of the rebellion live.
The main problem caused by rebellion is that in the internal struggle of the empire, destroying the enemy too violently may cause dissatisfaction among some people.
In their view, this is one of their own people beating their own people.
After all, Our Lady is an eternal being.
There is no problem with the ruler speaking his mind, as long as he can accept the hidden danger of declining stability.
But if you are too gentle, the other party will think there is an opportunity to cause greater damage.
If there is a rebellion during the civil strife in the empire, someone else might actually seize power and establish an independent force.
To put it simply, it is a dilemma.
"I feel like things are not that simple. If they need help, just provide them with assistance."
Chu Hua sent instructions to Cortana.
After receiving it, Cortana suggested to Charlemagne: "Should we send our fleet to help?"
"No."
"It's better not to use it. It's a family matter after all. Let us solve it ourselves."
Charlemagne shook his head. Although the Lanxi Empire was a vassal state of Daxia, it was better to handle its internal affairs on its own before it was annexed.
"It's just that, with Lanxi's good policies and treatment, why would there be a rebellion?"
A trace of doubt appeared in Charlemagne's mind.
The outbreak of the rebellion made it difficult to continue the conversation. Cortana temporarily took the team back to the embassy's residence to rest and wait until the matter was over before starting the conversation.
Charlemagne watched the quelling of the rebellion in the palace.
I am also thinking about the reasons for the rebellion.
The Lanxi Empire pursues pacifism, no death penalty, pro-foreign policy, and a **** system.
In addition to additional benefits for administrative staff, all citizens are uniformly distributed with housing and guaranteed food and drink.
There are no other enterprises, and all consumer goods are uniformly produced and distributed by the empire.
The disadvantage is that the military strength is insufficient, and the prosperity of the empire depends on the support of the suzerain country or trade with other countries.
When the foreign population is incorporated into Lanxi, temporary citizenship certificates will be issued and they will enjoy all basic rights in Lanxi, except that they cannot apply to become civil servants.
Within five years, those who have not committed any crime can officially become Lanxi citizens.
Such superior conditions are only available at this time. When the empire stops expanding, it will not be that simple to become a Lanxi citizen again.
No matter how he thought about it, Charlemagne could not understand why there were no rebels.
It seems that the truth will be known only after the rebellion is over.
The next afternoon.
The ending is pretty much what Charlemagne thought.
Although the rebels captured the same number of battleships as the Empire, the number was still too small.
Deploy a few cruisers in the surrounding area and let the rebels surrender and wait for their fate.
During the interrogation, Charlemagne found out why the rebellion occurred.
It turns out that someone secretly provided support and deployed plans with the purpose of weakening the Lanxi Empire's control.
"A spy?"
Looking at the list, Charlemagne narrowed his eyes.
This is also the drawback of pacifism. The management of outsiders is relatively loose, which also breeds the growth of this kind of intelligence personnel.
"Send the villain generals to cold areas to cultivate."
"As for the captured spies, let them work in deep minerals and wait for their empire to contact us."
Charlemagne announced the fate of these people to his subordinates. The punishment seemed harsh, but it was much better than that of ordinary military empires. After all, the working hours within their territory were unified.
Looking at the star map, Charlemagne knew very well.
As the number of star systems opened up increased, the scope of the Lanxi Empire expanded a lot.
There are six key galaxies above, below and to the right, each with two or three hyperspace lanes.
Above is the Ottoman Empire and five or six smaller countries.
On the right are the crescent moon alliance and four or five empires.
The number of empires that can be reached diagonally below reaches more than a dozen.
Looking at it now, the position of the Lanxi Empire is simply chosen by heaven, and it is completely the golden trunk line between the stars.
Therefore, the appearance of spies is in line with the cleanup, and the purpose cannot be to delay the process of Lanxi's annexation of Daxia.
There are even some who say they want to support the independence of the Lanxi Empire.
Charlemagne smiled and said nothing.
If the Lanxi Empire wants to be independent, even if Daxia is willing, the Ottoman Empire will probably be the first to rush down and eat it.
After resolving the rebellion, Charlemagne once again invited Cortana to discuss the ascension of the Lanxi Empire.
The Lanxi Empire's scientific research strength is not strong. It can only break through 100 per day now, and it is very strong in partial subjects.
Physics has just exceeded 30,000.
Engineering is a little better, reaching the level of 33,000.
The best is sociology. With the addition of various religious psychology, it has exceeded 40,000.
After establishing a scientific research project with Daxia, it is expected that Lanxi will be promoted to 4.0 in more than three months.
In previous discussions, Daxia hoped that the Lanxi Empire could become a commercial enclave, and they would become a bridge of communication between all surrounding empires.
and a safe place to trade.
Although all profits belong to Daxia, this not only allows Lanxi to maintain its sovereignty, but also makes the territory rich.
Why not?
Sovereignty is the most important thing in an empire. It is not only related to the existence of the ruler, but also the right to communicate with foreign countries, rather than everything being subject to the instructions of the sovereign state.
Furthermore, even if Daxia declines in the future, Lanxi will not be affected as long as he handles it properly.
