The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 2637: Baden's Choice One



This has a historical background. First of all, as the traditional southern states of Germany, Catholicism has a long history. It belongs to a deep-rooted local power. Of course, as Prussia later became stronger and stronger, Protestantism also tended to go south, and in the process of the unification of the German Empire, the Grand Duchy of Baden was the most inclined to unify among the states of Southern Germany. (It seems to be 55%?) So, in the following decades, Catholicism and Protestantism became the dominant religions in the Grand Duchy of Baden. Usually everyone is in peace, but once there are parties divided by sects, religious contradictions within the Grand Duchy of Baden become somewhat prominent.

The so-called personal relationship is personal. In fact, before 1905, the personal relationship between the Kaiser and Ruprecht was very good! But the so-called **** determines the head! When one party hurts the interests of the other party, let's not say that the two sides have all friends, but this will definitely create a gap between each other.

Especially recently, when the crown prince hinted through the Prince of Baden that the Protestants in the Grand Duchy of Baden were oppressed by Catholics and Orthodox (from the new territory of Baden in Eastern Europe.), and hoped that the Grand Duchy of Baden would coordinate. Duke Deng’s perception of the crown prince deteriorated rapidly. This has already involved internal affairs! The Grand Duke of Baden did not expect that the crown prince would interfere in his own internal affairs. Not to mention the current vouchers. Even before the war, Baden would cooperate with Prussian policies, but the Kaiser would not ask the Grand Duke of Baden so bluntly. Do certain things in your own country, especially if this kind of thing is still fine!

Born in an emperor’s house, Grand Duke Baden understood that interest was the deciding factor. When it came to core interests, Grand Duke Baden would not shrink back. Moreover, he is not a confidant. If at a certain time, when the crown prince thinks that throwing away the interests of the Grand Duchy of Baden, there will be greater benefits, then with the characteristics of the crown prince, may he throw it away without hesitation? In fact, not only the crown prince, but also Prussia and Bavaria before.

Did Bavaria make little contribution before 1905? The German High Seas Fleet was actually built under the guidance of Crown Prince Ruprecht. The Crown Prince agreed to the Kaiser's request to increase the size of the Bavarian conventional forces in order to force the Prussian military to expand. In addition, in the Far East and North Africa, Bavaria did a lot of things that the imperial government was inconvenient to do, let alone the mainstay role of Bavaria on the Eastern Front in the First World War, but when it was time for everyone to turn their faces, they still turned their faces, and then stabbed them over and over. ♀It hasn’t been long since the incident!

As for when the Grand Duchy of Baden can be thrown away? The Grand Duke of Baden also thought about it. You must know that the crown prince wants to establish a political party that traverses the whole of North Germany. 2 In other words, his party can actually gain the ruling position in the Prussian Federation, even though it was established by the Social Democratic right and the center. But it doesn’t say that they can always maintain the dominant position. The prince’s party can also gain the ruling position in the Prussian Federation, and then obtain the rights of two Prussias in disguise. At that time, if the prince wants to further integrate his own power. If you do, then you must attack Baden!

Because the weight of other small states is too small, it's useless to eat. The three southern kingdoms are one piece. Wanting to deal with them is the next step, so good, don't look for the Grand Duchy of Baden, who will the crown prince look for? At that time, Grand Duke Baden could only become a subordinate of the crown prince rather than an ally. This difference can be seen literally!

Therefore, with regard to what the crown prince did, Grand Duke Baden can only say: Sorry, you have overstepped. Then start to leave behind for yourself! Of course, in addition to the above two reasons, the most important thing is that Grand Duke Baden believes that if the two sides really PK, the crown prince is not Ruprecht’s opponent. There is an unbreakable truth in the struggle for governance, that is, The team must stand on the side of the final winner] Of course, when the Kaiser was strong, Bavaria was desperate to fight back, let alone now? Ruprecht is stronger, and the level of the crown prince is not as good as Wilhelm II!

Of course, this is not to say that the Grand Duchy of Baden has now decided to completely abandon the Kaiser. It is just a preparation. In fact, while the Kaiser was silent on the prince’s actions, Prince Albert also became the chief of the border. The officials are also staying behind, that is, once the crown prince and Bavaria lose the contest, the Kaiser can replace the crown prince cleanly, and then let Prince Albert take the position. If the crown prince wins, then it will naturally be resolved. In all matters, Prussia regained the dominance of the empire, and Prince Albert was the empire’s prime minister.

"So, Grand Duke Baden, are you ready to listen to my flaws? Then analyze it based on this. In the future game, which one of the crown prince and I have a higher chance of winning?" the crown prince said with a smile. Finally, now, Grand Duke Baden has explained his intentions. As for the doubts of the Grand Duke of Baden, the crown prince must also answer, because his answer today greatly affects the tendency of the Grand Duke of Baden in the future!

"In the future ~www.novelhall.com~ political parties will inevitably become an important part of imperial politics, and we will also establish political parties. But I will never divide it by sect or state! In the future, the political party I will establish will revitalize the empire. And it is our duty to harvest our own interests by the most extensive nation within the empire. We are not going to increase our wealth by grabbing others' things, but through cooperation to achieve greater success."

"First of all, in the future, the southern kingdom of Germany and some states will gradually break down the barriers between each other, and for the relatively weak states, we will give some assistance, and we will spread this common market to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Whether they are Catholics, Protestants or Orthodox Christians, they will benefit."

"And for those who are unruly towards us, we will inevitably give a very severe counterattack! If the future of the crown prince does not satisfy us, then I think the German family will not be able to control the imperial power. Multi-party coalition formation. It will become inevitable. And we will not cooperate with the crown prince. It should be a confession. Maybe there are many people in Germany who oppose Bavaria, but there are more people who don’t like the crown prince. Y is a political activity decided by the majority. You should know Who can be the final winner?" the crown prince said.
