Chapter 743： Revolutionary wave

With the departure of each ship, the history of the Prussian Kingdom for hundreds of years, was quietly emptied by Franz.

No, this should have nothing to do with Prussia. Now it is the Russian territory, and the close cooperation between Russia and Austria is completely independent.

The tsarist government eliminated the hidden dangers and stabilized the local situation; Austria increased the main ethnic population and both sides were winners.

Affected by this, Russia-Austria relations have become more harmonious. As a testimony of Russia-Austria friendship, the two governments have recently reached an agreement to extend the loan for two years.

Pure friendship, without any political strings attached. Since the agreement was reached, trade between the two countries in the Baltic Sea has prospered.

Affected by this Russian-Australian trade boom, Austrian companies engaged in international shipping took the lead in getting out of the economic crisis, and a large number of ships shuttled between the Baltic Sea and the Austrian colonies every day.

Followed by agricultural products and daily necessities companies, immigration led to rising consumption, pulling these companies back from the brink of bankruptcy.

The price was the Austrian National Bank, which successively issued tens of millions of SHIELD settlement loans to immigrants, which artificially created the consumer market.

...

A shot from Lyon broke the tranquility of continental Europe. Since the Great Revolution of 1848, the revolutionary wave in Europe has once again been ignited.

France is naturally the hardest hit area. From Paris to Rome, there are revolutionary leaflets and slogans everywhere, similar to the small advertisements on the poles of later generations.

"Fire fighting" has become the most important task of the French government. The police and the army have no time for vacations. Everyone is busy.

Affected by the revolutionary wave, revolutionary groups in various European countries have responded one after another.

On February 11, 1882, the Spanish capital Madrid broke out;

On February 13, 1882, Antwerp, Belgium's largest port and heavy industrial city, broke out with a docker uprising;

On February 13, 1882, a coal miner uprising broke out in Luxembourg;

On February 21, 1882, a peasant uprising broke out in Switzerland;

On March 1, 1882, a textile workers uprising broke out in London;

On March 7, 1882, an independent movement broke out in Ireland;

On March 12, 1882, a bourgeois revolution broke out in Portugal;

On March 17, 1882, an anti-Russian uprising broke out in Poland;

...

In less than two months, hundreds of revolutions, large and small, broke out in continental Europe, and more than half of the industrial cities had strikes.

As if overnight, Europe was back in the era of the Great Revolution.

It's a pleasure to see others unlucky. It's your turn to feel like sitting on a needle.

As a leader in the capitalist world, Austria has not been able to survive alone.

In the past two months, the Austrian government has put an end to the Milan textile workers' riots, the Venice Independence Movement, and the Saxony copper riots, and has scored dozens of revolutionary party cases.

Seeing Franz was frightened, he never expected that there were so many chaotic parties under his administration.

There is no doubt that more than 80% of these revolutionary parties are supported by foreign hostile forces, of which two-thirds are written by the British.

Franz was pleased that in this revolutionary wave, Vienna was very stable. Not only was there no way to revolution, even strikes did not occur.

At this time, Franz understood some of the reasons why later European countries would de-industrialize.

Normal times are okay, once the economic crisis hits, the manufacturing industry is hit too badly.

Especially for labor-intensive industries, that's a disaster.

Products cannot be sold, companies need to lay off employees for survival, and it is difficult to find new jobs in an economic crisis. Workers also need to survive, and conflicts arise.

Although other industries will also be affected, because the number of employees is relatively small and not as concentrated as in large factories, the outbreak of crisis has also been scattered in various places.

Theoretically, a colonial empire such as Austria could prevent a revolution from erupting as long as no one disturbed it.

The unemployed have no jobs in China, but they can be resettled in overseas colonies. Generally speaking, as long as people have choices, they will not go to extremes.

Thinking of this, Franz gritted his teeth at John Niu. In retaliation to the British, Franz immediately decided to increase support for the Irish independent organization, the British Revolutionary Party.

In a sense, this revolutionary wave that spread across Europe was also the result of several big hooligans stabbing each other with their swords.

Prime Minister Felix: "Your Majesty, just received the news that about 5,000 people in Silesian refugee camps have launched a protest asking the government to step in to interfere with the atrocities of the Russians and rescue the oppressed ..."

Without waiting for Felix to finish, Franz dropped the cup angrily. "Protest", when do criminals have the right to protest?

There is no problem, and illegal immigrants received in refugee camps are legally defined as criminals.

Because of the large number of people involved, the Vienna government did not directly define everyone as a criminal, but punished the leaders.

This protest has undoubtedly challenged Franz's bottom line. Russian atrocities, protest to the Austrian government, isn't this nonsense?

Austria is not an international police, so why interfere in people's internal affairs. If you really mess around, you will be beaten to death sooner or later.

The Vienna government has already resettled most of them, but more than 200,000 people are still stranded in refugee camps, waiting to be resettled.

Franz sneered: "Repatriate all protesters to the Russian Empire and send them to Alexander III for potatoes.

All responsible persons were removed from their posts and held accountable. An investigation team was dispatched to investigate the ins and outs of the matter thoroughly. I don't believe it was a spontaneous situation of the refugees. "

Refugee camps are militarized and protests can erupt. If there is no managerial malfeasance, Franz will not believe anything.

Sorry, the management was unwilling, and what happened to the outside world did not receive news from the refugee camp.

These people were not idle either, and Franz also built a fence on the border. It's not for what, it's mainly for the refugees to find something to do, so as not to be idle and cause trouble.

It's all defenses, and trouble is still coming. In order to maintain longevity, Franz must kill chickens and tamarins.

Repatriation to the Russian Empire is the greatest punishment. The Tsarist government will not welcome them, and they are lucky to be able to grow potatoes in Siberia.

Prime Minister Felix proposed: "Your Majesty, the problem of repatriating these troubled refugees is not big, and the trouble is the growing wave of European revolution.

Although most of the riots initiated by the Revolutionary Party ended in failure, not as powerful as in 1848, the harm caused by such frequent riots cannot be underestimated.

For the sake of peace and stability in the European world, we need to convene an international conference to bring governments together to curb the spread of revolutionary ideas. "

These years, there is no government that is not afraid of the "revolution". Due to productivity constraints, all countries in the world and the people at the bottom have a hard time.

"Life is not easy" has the will of revolution, the soil of revolution exists, and those with vested interests naturally panic.

It seems that these revolutionary events occurred in isolation. In fact, more than 90% of the revolutions in them are inseparable from international forces.

Maybe everyone did not plan the rebellion directly, but supported the revolutionary organizations, spread the revolutionary ideas, and provided asylum to the revolutionaries. These were all done by the hooligans.

Of course, small countries are also involved. It's just that the range of action is smaller, mainly to do thought output.

After the Great Revolution of 1848, European countries learned their lessons and settled for a period of time. However, they did not expect that they would now resurface.

Franz was not qualified to blame others on this issue, and Austria did not do less of a similar thing.

At least the unrest in Britain and France had the credit of the Vienna government. Without Austria's participation, continental Europe would not have been so lively.
