Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne

Chapter 607 Population Policy of the Netherlands

On December 22, 1869, President Adolphe Thiers, the interim president of the defense government of the divided Third French Republic in southern France, and Bismarck of the Kingdom of Prussia signed the Armistice Agreement between Prussia and Southern France in Berlin.

After the news came out, the French Second Empire in the north of Paris expressed its opposition to any agreement between Berlin and Lyon.

Despite this, the Charles government declared the Lyon government an illegal regime. He called on the Prussian government in Berlin not to turn a blind eye to the French Second Empire's firm will to maintain national unity. At the same time, he also called on the Prussian government to release the captured Napoleon III.

Unfortunately, Berlin was dismissive.

Bismarck and Adolphe Thiers declared in Berlin that they supported peaceful exchanges between the two countries, and jointly called on the French Second Empire government in Paris not to interfere in the friendly exchanges between Prussia and the Third French Republic.

Adolphe Thiers; "Prussia loves peace and likes to have friendly exchanges with peace-loving countries. The beginning of the Franco-Prussian War was when the Second Empire led by His Majesty Napoleon III declared war on Prussia, which led to a huge war between the French Empire and Prussia. And it hurt both sides, and France in the south was not willing to go to war with Prussia, so we rejected the rule of the tyrant Napoleon III and declared war to peacefully end a war with Prussia that should not have existed in the first place. What's wrong with this?"

Bismarck, who was also present, also said firmly: "Prussia has a close relationship with the Third French Republic. We in Berlin very much appreciate the Third Republic government in Lyon for its expectations for peace. Therefore, President Adolphe Thiers and I stand here today. I hope the French Second Empire government in Paris can see the situation clearly and make a choice that is beneficial to them."

The last two people also announced that the Kingdom of Prussia and the Third French Republic had reached a military consensus, that Prussia and the Third French Republic had entered into a military assistance agreement, and that the two countries would provide docking agreements for mutual visits of naval ships in the Mediterranean and the North.

The successive agreements between Prussia and the French Third Republic made Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom and others look very ugly. The United Kingdom had just reached an agreement on mutual visits to English Channel ports with the Second French Empire in Paris in the north. Prussia and the Third French Republic were about to rush. It was achieved in the front, this is not a slap in the face.

At the same time, Bismarck's public reception of Adolphe Thiers in Berlin was already announcing Prussia's dissatisfaction with Britain, which was considered a confrontational move.

This naturally made Queen Victoria very dissatisfied, and the consequences of the queen's dissatisfaction were naturally very serious.

On December 23, 1869, William IV received a telegram from the Queen from Buckingham Palace in London.

"The British Empire is willing to support the Netherlands' desire to claim the New Zealand Islands, but the Netherlands must support Britain's policies in the Southeast Asian peninsula, including: first, supporting the British colonization of Upper Burma. Second, the Netherlands also needs to support the United Kingdom on its European stance, at least The Netherlands maintained a minimally neutral stance when it came to British interests.

Third, the Netherlands needs to support the UK in joining the International Court of Justice in The Hague and agree that the UK is a partner of the Nordic Alliance.

Finally, the Netherlands needs to support Britain as a global leader in sea power. "

William IV looked at the London telegram that had just been typed less than half an hour ago, with a smile on his face.

"Our Majesty the Queen of England still can't hold it in any longer. The rise of Prussia has accelerated with the division of France, at least on the surface. The Netherlands has already gained power under Bismarck's strength following my confession to Queen Victoria. Queen Victoria’s approval,.”

William IV said proudly to himself: "Then, no matter how the situation in the French Empire develops, it is inevitable that Prussia will eventually become Britain's number one constraint. If the development situation in the previous life remains unchanged, Europe will enter a 40-year period of peaceful development in the future. , Britain and Prussia (soon to be the German Empire) will enter the stage of alliance and wooing in Europe, and the Netherlands will become the target of Britain and Prussia competing to win over with my preparation.

During this period, the development of the Far East will also enter the fast lane. Using these 40 years of European peace, the Netherlands will completely complete the transformation of the Far East to dominate the Netherlands. By then, Europe will have a self-destructive war against the Netherlands. The impact will be minimized, and at the same time, the Netherlands will be more suitable to become a haven for European asylum seekers than the Commonwealth of America on the Atlantic Ocean."

Thinking of this, William IV narrowed his eyes slightly, "Bismarck must have thought that Prussia had already taken the initiative among the forces in the north and south of France due to the instant exchanges with the French Third Republic. In addition, Prussia occupied the tight sixth of France in the east of France. The territory of France can be said to have had a significant impact on the internal forces of France and became an internal third-party force within the territory of the French Empire.

He thought he could lead the future direction of France, but what Bismarck didn't know was that I had begun to bring Balzacca under the Royal Dutch Intelligence Service many years ago. With the help of the Royal Dutch Intelligence Service over the years, Balzacca was able to His reputation spread far and wide, he gained prestige and fame, and he made ground-breaking steps into French politics.

According to the news that Bill Charlie received from Balzacca, Adolphe Thiers is preparing to appoint him as the Minister of the Interior of the Second French Republic. If this is true, then every move of the Third French Republic in the future will be exposed to the Netherlands. Royal Intelligence Service at the moment. It can be said that the Netherlands has a good opportunity for other countries to understand the development of the internal situation in France."

"However, the Netherlands still has not achieved a leapfrog lead in high-tech compared to the UK and the UK, but it needs to speed up."

"Also, after the Franco-Prussian War, the development of Australia will be the most important event in the next 40 years in the Netherlands. It must be supervised and urged by a complete set of development plans, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve the results I expect."

Thinking of this, William IV couldn't help but secretly praise himself for rejecting everyone's opinions and insisting on purchasing the Far Eastern Australian continent from Britain. In the past few years, apart from the indigenous people, it was still desolate and inhabited. Now the white population there alone exceeds 7 million and 3 million. The ratio of natives to 10,000 people is 7:3.

Moreover, more than 2 million of the 7 million natives in the Dutch East Indies have moved to Africa, where the current ratio of whites to natives is 200:500.

In other words, in the Far East alone, the Kingdom of the Netherlands had 9 million white people and only 8 million indigenous people. The white people finally completed the first population reversal between whites and indigenous people at the end of 1868.

Today there are 1.1 million African Dutch whites, and there are still 2.87 million people in the mainland.

There are 1.2 million African Dutch whites and 13 million indigenous people (including 2 million indigenous people who migrated from the Far East in the past ten years), which is nearly 1:10.
