Shiloh squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the line of prompts on the system panel.
[Please confirm the political system of the territory to upgrade your camp to a town]
Government system.
Shiloh never thought that he could actually decide the political system of Stormwind City.
The political systems in Hilo's impression are capitalism, nationalism and communism.
In today's world, Hilo doesn't even know where the sprouts of capitalism are developing and growing. It would undoubtedly be the stupidest act to directly apply the concepts of previous generations to promote government.
Now, for Hilo, the only systems that can be chosen are those from the feudal period: chieftaincy, aristocratic republic, monarchy, theocracy, etc.
Chieftaincy and monarchy were the first to be ruled out by Hilo.
Just kidding, he doesn't want to be a chief or a king.
The former is because "chief" is such an inappropriate word in his memory that it will cause him physical and psychological discomfort, and even induce photosensitive epileptic seizures.
The latter is because he knows that he is not made to be a king.
It's too cold to be in high places. If he really becomes that Nine-Five Supreme, Shiloh swears, he won't be able to hold on for two days before he goes crazy.
As for theocracy, Shiloh imagined that he was holding a string of rosary beads, wearing a priest's robe, and chanting Hallelujah, Believe me, I will live forever...
Inappropriate, inappropriate!
As for the aristocratic republic... This system, which is similar to democracy, has a huge flaw at its source: the inherent selfishness and ambition of human nature can easily lead to factional competition and strife, and ultimately form a tyranny of the majority.
"What are you doing? After thinking about it, communism is better. Do I have to choose a system with flaws?"
Shiloh thought for a while and asked the system: "Can I establish a territorial system by myself?"
The system was silent for a while, and finally a dialog box appeared.
【Can】
Seeing the system's answer, Shiloh breathed a sigh of relief.
In his heart, communism is always the strongest, most combative, and most suitable system for human development.
Under Shiloh's conception, he wanted to gradually transform Stormwind City into a wonderland that nurtures democracy and equality, gradually get rid of backward feudal autocracy, achieve common material prosperity through people's efforts, and eventually become a civilized, harmonious, and equal society.
If possible, he hopes to make the world full of red flags!
This move is too big, and he may only be able to make one opening in his lifetime, but Shiloh has made up his mind to bring a change to the world, so this is not considered a new life.
Rebuilding classes before was also to achieve this goal. Now the society in this world is really too backward and barbaric, so we can only do it step by step.
The journey is not completed in one step, just as a fat man is not completed in one meal.
What he needs to consider now is how to use a gentle way to make people accept "equality", "harmony" and "civilization". He needs to seriously consider and take the most solid step.
He needs a guideline.
This thing is like a constitution. It will be the outline for the future development of Stormwind City. Once it is issued, it cannot be modified at will.
Just like the Kingdom of Pontos was founded by force, the Free Federation was based on business, and each country has its own agenda.
What kind of program should Stormwind City implement?
Shiloh is not an omniscient genius. Faced with such a problem, he was quite troubled at first and didn't know what to do.
Stormwind City is in an extremely unique situation right now.
Internally, he needs to unite all the people in the territory to resist other races that may appear at any time and ensure the safety of Stormwind City.
Externally, he also relies on the Kingdom of Pontos and the Free Federation to carry out trade and purchase resources for development.
It can be said that military and commercial affairs have to be grasped by both hands, and neither can be let go.
The promulgation of the program determines the future development focus of Stormwind City.
Shiloh was blocked by this problem and hadn't had a good rest for several days. No matter what he thought, he would fall into a strange logical chain.
If the military is developed, the economy will stagnate, and a large amount of funds will be used to support the army, making it impossible to develop society.
If you want to achieve his goal of changing the feudal social system, you must focus on economic development.
This may seem unrelated, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that the two are closely related.
If the people's food and clothing problems cannot be solved, then if you drag them and tell them about equality and democracy, it is not as effective as a bowl of hot rice.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to only build the military and ignore economic development.
However, even if Stormwind City fully develops its economy, it will still face threats from various alien races in the sea and underground. Without certain military strength, it will be like a lonely boat, easily capsized in a storm.
Just focusing on economic development without military strength is not enough.
What should be done?
In extreme distress, Shiloh finally turned to his right-hand man, Rowan.
Luo Wen has a rough face and a delicate heart. Shiloh changed the way of describing it and roughly told Luo Wen the difficulties he was facing at this time. Luo Wen thought for a moment and then smiled and got the answer.
"Your Highness, according to what you said, if we encounter a difficulty that will cause problems no matter how we deal with it, I think there is exactly one solution."
Shiloh pricked up his ears, looking forward to Rowan's answer.
"If we can't solve this problem, then we need to find an ally and let this ally help me solve the problem!"
"On the sea, a fleet is always stronger than a lonely boat. Maybe my allies can solve difficult problems that I can't solve. This is the law of the sea."
"If you are weak, rely on the strong."
"If you are strong, form gangs."
"Only in this way can we survive better in the sea."
"Your Highness... In addition to being the lord of the Gulf Stream Island Chain, you are also the third prince of the Pontos Kingdom."
After hearing Luo Wen's words, Hilo suddenly became enlightened. After untying his knot, Hilo felt much more relaxed.
"Rowan, Rowan, sometimes I really feel that it's unfair for you to be just a captain. How about I make you a high official when I occupy the entire Gulf Stream island chain."
Luo Wen grinned and said: "It's just some superficial knowledge of a fisherman in the Evil Sea. It's an honor for me to serve His Highness."
The two looked at each other and laughed.
After listening to Luo Wen's suggestion, Shiloh suddenly understood and immediately stopped worrying about whether to develop the economy or the military first.
But in the future, he will definitely go back to the Pontos Kingdom to find a reliable ally for Hope Island.
Rowan was right, Hope Island was still weak, and there was nothing wrong with relying on the powerful Pontos Kingdom.
In any case, it has been several months since I came to this world. If I have the chance, I still want to go back and see the king of Pontos, my cheap daddy.
It would be even better if we could get some benefits back to Hope Island.
Thinking about his little calculation in his mind, Shiloh silently looked to the northwest.
