Why did Marin insist on sealing the nobility to America? First, the domestic land is not big enough, and second, because these nobles will also find ways to recruit manpower to reclaim wasteland.

In addition, these nobles have a certain military literacy, and basically all have received military command training since childhood. Once they have an interest in the Americas, they will be very enthusiastic to help protect the sovereignty of the Americas.

If, like the British, only the colonial lands were handed over to merchants, adventurers, and even prisoners in exile, the consequences might be bad. You know, whether it is a businessman, an adventurer, or an exile, they are all of poor quality and have milk as their mother. Although the nobles were not so good, they were at least glorious and loyal. Therefore, it is also necessary to have some nobles in the American town.

Moreover, nobles want to defend their rights, they must first recognize and protect the rights of the royal family. Otherwise, the kingship is subverted, and the next step is to deprive them of their privileges. Therefore, although the nobility is not a good person, for Marin, it is more comfortable to work with them than with businessmen and adventurers.

In addition, once the nobility settles in the Americas, it will inevitably become one of the core members of the local parliament. Once the vote is independent, these people will definitely choose to support the royal family in order to protect their title. Otherwise, once they betrayed, their title would no longer exist. After all, without the existence of the royal family, these nobles enshrined by the royal family lost their meaning.

Therefore, in any case, in the American colonies, a group of nobles must be left to the town. Otherwise, all businessmen and adventurers will be the representatives.

In fact, the collapse of the British Empire's colonial system in later generations was also related to too many noble officers who died in the two world wars. With the presence of noble officers, naturally, the colony would not be easily allowed to become independent. However, without those noble officers, when the regime is in the hands of the capitalists, those people do not matter. From the perspective of the capitalists, the colony retains if it makes a profit, and throws it if it doesn't make a profit. In their eyes, as long as the benefits are sufficient, the country can betray. Officials of civilian origin are often more easily bought by capitalists because of economic constraints. Officials with noble backgrounds tend to value face and honor more and are less likely to be bought. Because, they are not bad money ...

As a result, Marin, who had been a monarch for a long time, gradually changed his original position of being closer to civilians and closer to military aristocracy. Because, in danger, those military nobles are more reliable than civilians. This is not to say that those military nobles are of good character, but that they are more in line with their own interests. And civilians, although being kind to them early may make them grateful. However, after a long time, when the people are used to these good things, it is difficult to say. At that time, they will want more, if not ...

Of course, even if Marin leans toward a military aristocracy, it won't be used by any fool. Normally, children of the natural aristocracy in the army have priority. But if it is during the war, it is the military merits. Whoever has great military merit is more likely to be promoted. Unless, when a noble child has the same military merits as a civilian child, the noble child will take precedence ...

...

In the final analysis, this is still a question of "ass determines the head". At the beginning, when Marin had just crossed over, he was still the psychology of the common people, closer to the civilians, and somewhat hostile to the nobility.

When he truly became a prince on the German side, Marin gradually discovered that he and the nobles were together ...

Preferential treatment of civilians, of course, will make civilians grateful. However, people are forgetful. When they get used to the benefits, one day you suddenly do n’t give it ... the so-called "Sheng Mi En Dou Mi Qiu" is the reason ...

But the old aristocrats and themselves did not urinate in less than one pot. The old aristocrats looked down on Marin's origin and lineage, and Marin also looked down on the two sides of the old aristocrats and incompetence ...

In desperation, Marin can only select new military aristocrats from civilian soldiers and influence them with his own thoughts, turning them into people of his own kind. In this way, with enough helpers, there is no worry that there will be no supporters in the future.

However, the basic qualities of these military aristocrats of civilian origin are really daunting. Kahn is stupid, but most of the nobles of civilian origin are actually at the same level as this one. Only Schwartz and Stade, who were born in the side branch of noble nobility, because they had a good basic education since childhood, they could barely be regarded as talents.

In short, Marin was disappointed with the level of these guys. Even after literacy, most of these guys can only reach the level of the second grade of later generations, which is really embarrassing.

However, Marin had high hopes for their descendants. After all, education at an early age is definitely better than post-adult literacy. The first batch of military officers and children, who are now in high school now, is going to college soon.

However, at present, there is no specialized military university in Beihai, only Aurich University has a military college. Marin felt that it was not enough, and decided to raise the status of the military academy.

It happened that he had just mixed up the title of king and wasted it if he didn't use it. The king, as a sovereign monarch, can issue an edict and prepare for the establishment of a university. Unlike the Grand Duke of Beihai, building a university requires the approval of the Holy See or the emperor. No way, although the Grand Duchy of Beihai has autonomy, it is not a sovereign country in name.

But this time the Holy See rewarded him with a different American kingdom. Although it was a barren land, it was Marin alone. In the name of the king, in the name of calming the wild natives, it is still possible to build a military university.

So, Marin thought of West Point Military Academy ...

"Well, everyone is mixed in North America, and they are all called the American xx. Then, I would also build a West Point Military Academy ... It ’s not enough to call West Point Military Academy, then ... let ’s call it" Royal West Point Military Academy "..."

In this way, Marin happily named this university under the Kingdom of the United States "Royal West Point Military Academy". As for the location of the school, Marin intends to place it on the west bank of the Hudson River in New York City. Later generations, West Point Military Academy was located 80 kilometers north of New York City on the west bank of the Hudson River.

But Marin did not plan to build so far from New York, but directly prepared to build on the west bank of Manhattan Island across the river. Then, build a castle called West Point, also named West Point Fortress ... Well, West Point Military Academy did just that ...

Then, in order to be reasonable, Marin first issued a castle called West Point Fortress on the west bank of the Hudson River in New York.

Two days later, Marin signed a new order-intending to build the first university in the United States based on the West Point Fortress ... Royal West Point Military Academy ...

In this way ~ www.novelhall.com ~ The appearance of the West Point Military Academy is not so abrupt ...

However, considering that it is estimated that no military aristocracy is willing to send their children to "remote" New York to go to school, so Marin adopted a compromise solution-the University of Aurich University Military Academy was stripped from the University of Aurich, and Join the newly established "Royal West Point Military Academy". Then, the original "Orich University Military College Campus" outside Aurich was directly renamed "Royal West Point Military Academy Aurich Campus" ...

In this way, the problem that the school is too remote is solved. West Point Fortress or something, just put a name. At that time, what is taught will also be educated at the campus outside Aurich. As for the campus of the Royal West Point Military Academy ... God knows when the enrollment will be completed ...

But that's not important, Marin just borrowed a name anyway. He is now king and qualified to use the title royal (English royal) or koniglich (German royal). In short, this is a title that promotes compulsion. Plus it, it sounds a lot taller. Just like Real Madrid in the later generations, if there is no such word as "Emperor", it is called "Ma (Delhi)" ... Forcing Ge Ge to be suddenly lowered by 18,000 miles ...

However, Marin is still a little bit uneasy, because this "Royal West Point Military Academy", when it is called in Chinese, always sounds like a school that trains cake cooks, and it has a fight with Xin Dongfang ...
