Chapter 1419： Broken rules

In fact, Marin treats his brother like this is completely "super class". Because, Marin's mountains and rivers were not inherited from the old Hoffman, but were beaten down by themselves.

If you insist on inheritance, Mrs. Mary ’s right to inherit the East Frisian Count did indeed help Marin in the early days. However, that was also given to him by Adler. Therefore, Marin compensated Adler for a Berne country completely without problems. However, with Simon and Albert, Marin was not obliged to give them the count. According to the algorithm of inheriting the earl from Mrs. Mary, it is a **** to give a baron alone.

However, the Ukrainian population Marin is really greedy. But he could not withdraw to Ukraine to participate in hegemony in Eastern Europe. Simon, an older man, happened to be doing nothing at home. So, just let Simon do those things for himself. Moreover, Simon himself also likes to fight. If you do n’t allow the leader in the country, you might suffocate him, so let him go to the Ukrainian grasslands.

And the Earl of Philadelphia, Albert, would have been reluctant to change the Grand Duke. Who is Marlin? That was the black heart that swallowed America by eating alone! It's nothing to give Albert a Philadelphia closure. Closed to the huge Americas, the field near Philadelphia is just like a cow.

However, his behavior caused a sensation in Europe. Many princes with younger brothers expressed strong dissatisfaction with him-Nima's brothers are so good, don't we seem to treat our brothers hard?

Marin himself did not expect that his actions caused as much trouble as many European monarchs. Many of the monarch's younger brothers took Marlin to talk about things and wanted to get more from their brothers. Then, Marin was hated by many monarchs with many younger brothers ...

After Marin knew the news, he felt very wronged-I was also desperate! I just had a baby in Caesar's marriage, and I was young. If you want to send someone to control Ukraine, you can't buy an Earl title for your men? Therefore, you can only choose the younger brother Simon who didn't do anything ...

Therefore, in order to eliminate the adverse effects, Marin had to invite the old Hoffman to come out and carry the pot--

"Dad, I was hated by many kings and princes. You must help me with this ..."

Old Huffman was a little bit out of his mind:

"What? Be nice to my brother and outsiders? Why?"

But Mrs. Mary was also a great aristocrat after all, and was educated in this area as a child. She asked:

"Did you treat your brother kindly and embarrass other monarchs?"

Marin nodded, still his old lady smart. As for the old man ... oh ...

Old Huffman was a little dumbfounded and asked:

"What do you mean by letting me help? I can also make those monarchs friendly to you? I don't have that skill ..."

"You don't have to do anything else, just declare to the outside world that you forced me to make my brothers count." Marin explained.

"What? When did I force you? I generally don't mix things in the Beihai Kingdom, OK? Besides, I'm too old and ignorant of those government affairs ..." Well, this one is quite self-aware ...

"It's not that you really forced me, but to help me share the pressure! Only if you forced me to make my brothers count, will the monarchs of other countries not blame me!"

Just after Malin finished, the old Huffman's face went black:

"What do you mean? Let me be blamed? This is a disgraceful thing! You also know that I have taught you since childhood-Honor is my life! So, it will damage my honor!"

Malin was speechless. Even though Mrs. Mary stood up, she kicked the old Hoffman and said:

"Your pitiful honor is important, or Marin's North Sea country is important? If you are hated by European monarchs or even unite, then the North Sea country may perish. At that time, see if your Hoffman family has any honor ... … "

Yes, when it comes to the honor of the Huffman family, the old Huffman suddenly limped. Compared with the glory of the family, his personal honor is really nothing ...

Then, the next day, the old Hoffman publicly declared that he ordered his son to enlist the two youngest sons as counts, because he wanted to revive the Hoffman family too much ...

This argument is valid and well-founded, and fits well with the old Huffman's design. Then, the hostility towards Marin was greatly reduced.

At the same time, Marin announced that his brother Simon ’s purchase of the Ukrainian Ukrainian State should pay back 250,000 gold coins. Of course, this repayment period is relatively long, 50 years. In this way, it's easy to say-Marin didn't buy an earl for his brother in vain, but lent him money. Is it wrong to lend money to my brother? Obviously nothing wrong! At this time, others are not so good to accuse Marin of "breaking the rules" ...

What rules did Marin break? That is the "oldest son inheritance system" popular in Europe for hundreds of years ...

The eldest son system in Europe was formed in the middle of the Middle Ages. Probably the three grandsons of Charlemagne divided the Charlemagne Empire into Germany, Middle Frank (including Lorraine in the north, Burgundy in the middle and Northern Italy in the south) and France After part.

At that time, the European nobles saw the disadvantages of their children's division of their inheritance-the once powerful Charlemagne Empire, which was divided into three parts at a time and lost the absolute dominance of Europe.

Therefore, the Dukes of the Holy Roman Empire, which was formed in the German region in the east, learned this lesson. After the formation of the Holy Roman Empire, the eldest son system was established. That is, the eldest son takes all, and the other sons do not have, or can only eat, a system of cold soup.

This system is very unfair to other sons than the eldest son. Because, this means that their future has lost their guarantee. However, it can maximize the strength of the family's main branch, so that the family's strength will not be dispersed.

Later, European countries saw the benefits and adopted this system.

The eldest son all-you-can-eat system has many advantages. First of all, he avoided the internal friction of the brothers' fight. In the ancient East, whenever the emperor changed, it often set off a **** storm, leading to a great loss of national strength. The most serious one is probably the "Eight Kings' Rebellion" in Western Jin Dynasty. It destroyed the Central Plains and lost too many heroes, which directly led to the "five chaos of China".

And the eldest son-take-all system can fully avoid the situation where the sons are separated, and is conducive to the stability of the country and the dynasty. Therefore, the dynasties in Europe generally change non-peacefully, such as the heirs. At the same time, the change of the Chinese dynasty was a process of chaos in the world, which hurt a lot.

In addition, the eldest son-take-all system is also conducive to encouraging the noble children to advance. Why? Because other than the eldest son, the other sons have no inheritance rights. If you want a future, you have to work hard! Therefore, many princes in Europe entered the military service, and used their lives to exchange military power and titles. Many excellent royal and noble children appeared. And all this is forced.

Of course, in addition to entering the army, the noble children have a way, that is-to enter the monastery as a monk. But after the religious war, no one left. Because of the decline in the status of the church, there is no power or fuel to become a bishop.

Then, most noble children can only choose to serve in the military. Then, expect to perform well in the war to gain the title and the fief.

This is why the children of European nobility are generally better than the children of ancient Chinese nobility. It ’s not that European nobles have good bloodlines ~ www.novelhall.com ~ but they were forced out-if you do n’t strengthen yourself, you will die ...

On the contrary, because the noble children of ancient China have the opportunity to compete for inheritance rights, they put most of their energy into the family.

Or, there are many noble children, because in the future they will always get a share. Therefore, there is no pressure in my heart at all, eating, drinking and playing all day, harming one side and becoming a dude ...

...

Therefore, all the young boys and girls of ancient China were accustomed to have no worries about their future. There is no pressure, and the resources are extremely rich. It is easy to indulge in them and become a playboy.

Under two very different systems, the European nobility is a famous general, and the Chinese nobles do their best ... there is no question of who is stronger than anyone, but one is forced to help but go forward; the other is that there is no need to go forward ...

Marin suddenly remembered that a few years before the crossing, there was a brainless descendant of the Manchu nobility, saying that China needs the nobility and the spirit of the nobility. Marin is too lazy to spray this Saby, just like Huaxia's inheritance system, most of the aristocratic children are dumb waste wood, why does Huaxia need such garbage? And looking at the end of the Qing Dynasty, what did the "hardcore crops" of the eight-flag brothers waste wood become? Because there is a guarantee for the future, there is no motivation at all, and it is easy to be reduced to dudes and scum. That Sabige probably didn't want the spirit of nobility, but missed the "hardcore crops" of the past ...

...

Obviously, the behavior of Marin's "noble generation" that made his younger brothers count, indeed broke the rules. Strictly speaking, it may destroy the pioneering spirit inherited by European nobles. Therefore, Marin will be so nervous, so that the old Huffman will stand up and bear the blame. Because he did not want the European nobles to develop bad habits in his own hands. Just like the noble children of China, because of their worry-free future, they are reduced to social worms ...
