Chapter 1856 The Pirate's Wine

"I hereby solemnly swear that I completely renounce my citizenship and allegiance to any foreign prince, monarch, country or sovereign before me, and that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies at home and abroad."

According to the naturalization of the United States of America, new nationals will no longer be loyal to the prince, monarch, country or citizens. In the United States, there are no people with titles such as king, duke, and emperor. Everyone is equal, and the president cannot be elected by the same people. The county magistrate was fired.

Before the War of Independence, the thirteen states in North America were deeply exploited by the suzerain. The "Sugar Act" of 1764 promulgated the "Stamp Duty Act" in the second year. The sugar trade needs to turn over hard currency instead of paper money. At that time, the United States also lacked. They even used Indian shell beads as currency.

Nutrition is another factor that determines a person’s height in addition to congenital conditions. As a large agricultural country, the United States not only has corn and wheat, but also high-quality beef from New York State, high-quality pork from North Carolina, and high-quality venison from Philadelphia. These thirteen colonies united into a network, and the Americans of the 18th century became the most nourished and tallest in the world.

Endless poverty has made most Europeans not only shorten their life spans but also ten inches shorter than Americans.

The early immigrants often had a miserable time in their hometown. It is better to leave their hometown and go to a place where they can do a better job than to stay here with no work and no hope. These people are not much better even if they don’t encounter famine. The thin and short Europeans look a little pitiful in front of the tall Americans, but they can work as soon as they get off the ship, and some people are really lucky. Get rich like Philip English, or become an independent timber contractor yourself, supplying masts for the Royal Navy, by working for the nobility.

But before they got rich, they also drank rum like the slaves on the sugar plantations, because it is made of sugar, and it is one of the alcohols with the highest calories. The key is that it is cheap. chill.

The British raised taxes on sucrose, which not only violated the interests of the rich by robbing the originally scarce hard currency, but ultimately these consumers borne the burden, so the poor and the rich were united as never before, and they wanted to escape to the New World. The king who makes people safe drives away.

Bentham believed that the primary purpose of human beings is to pursue happiness. It has been difficult for people to give a general definition of happiness. Bentham believed that happiness is happiness.

Can a drunkard drink sweet rum for a while, which can only bring him temporary happiness, but does nothing to improve his life. Can this be called happiness?

Napoleon once compared the desert to a sea underfoot, and London doctors said that ships are like camels in the ocean. If the crew is not supplied, they will be like people in a caravan, and the water bags can only be used. For a moment, it seemed that he was complaining that his life was wasted in the water-scarce desert.

Whenever a ship enters the port, it must first replenish fresh water, followed by fresh meat and vegetables, and then there is lemon, which, like wine, can prevent sepsis.

Then there is rum, not only sailors, pirates also like to drink it, and drinking it can quickly increase adventure and courage.

British merchants regard rum as a commodity for global trade, and sometimes the fruit growers who make wine can’t drink the wine they brew themselves. They will brew a kind of "sour wine", which is to use water to dissolve the fruit shavings and alcohol left on the oak barrels. , it tastes almost like vinegar.

In addition to being affected by the weather, grapes are also prone to phylloxera, and the harvest is not as stable as sugarcane. If it is just to satisfy the appetite, cheap and delicious rum is also a good choice.

Spain and France also saw it as a serious competitor to domestic alcohol, and both countries made rum imports illegal.

Sometimes people are like this, and they do incredible things on impulse.

It is not necessarily necessary to form a coalition to attack Toulon like England and Spain did in the past. Drinking wine is far better than drinking rum to keep out the cold for engineers who are doing high-intensity operations in the Alps. Since France has pioneered it, the same is true for Spain. There is no reason to continue to block.

In fact, Massachusetts also makes drinking rum, brandy and other spirits illegal, but it is not as strict as Spain. As long as the Holy Communion will be held, there will be no shortage of wine. Apart from advocating human dissection, the church also does not advocate unrestrained drinking.

Compared with France, where theocracy has fallen, the prestige of the Spanish Church is still there, and there is also an Inquisition, which not only oversees the words and deeds of the Spaniards, but is also often used as a tool to attack political opponents.

The same is true of Portugal, where the British were previously accused of heresy because of secular disputes.

Many rituals of Protestants are different from Catholicism... All in all, the fact that the Spanish king issued charters indiscriminately made many people unhappy, and some people wanted to kick Godoy's beautiful ass.

As long as people are not greedy for petty gains and drinking too much, drinking some rum in moderation is a relaxing pastime and can also replenish calories. But the character of the Spaniards is passionate, joy-loving, and unrestrained. This kind of character is like a flame, which will burn even hotter when it meets strong alcohol, and is as difficult to tame as a bullfight.

Priests are not public officials who receive a state salary, they are loyal to the Roman Church. During the French Revolution, some priests were unwilling to take an oath to obey the Constitution. On April 18, 1791, Louis XVI attempted to go to a castle in the outskirts of Paris to celebrate Easter with the priests who refused to take the oath. Surrounded, but failed to leave in the end, Louis XVI strengthened his determination to flee after this incident.

The oath includes promise and estoppel, which seems to be no big deal in the eyes of ordinary people, but after Bonaparte signed the special contract with the Roman Church, some priests were still unwilling to take the oath, and even the purge of the Tribunal was not in harmony with the church. About the appointment.

The Pope's special envoy Caprara asked the former bishop who swore allegiance to the constitution to admit past mistakes. Although Bonaparte was able to solve the Italian problem with natural boundaries like a sharp knife, he had no way to deal with the disputes of these senior priests. In the end, the priests used ambiguity. solved in a way.

I don't know what effect it will have. Anyway, where the "Declaration of Independence" does not make it clear, problems will emerge from there like a flood that bursts a levee.

Sir Denning separated promise from estoppel. Estoppel is a "principle of non-repudiation" and is rigid, while a promise must be a promise. It is a relationship of trust. First, the promisor knows that the promisee will According to this promise, the promisee also acts according to this promise in fact. Second, when the promisor makes the intention to promise, he intends to create a legal relationship.

The biggest feature of equity and common law compared with continental law is its flexibility. It is based on cases and has the personal style of a judge. Continental law is statutory law. What the Statue of Liberty in New York is holding is not a code of law, but the Declaration of Independence , Before 1926, there was no code of law in the United States.

In the first version of the United States Code, the Declaration of Independence was not included, and even without mentioning the large passage about the abolition of slavery that was deleted from the original draft, the Declaration of Independence is not like the content of the oath at the naturalization ceremony. Repentance", but it has a stronger effect than "undertaking".

Undertaking and promise are sometimes synonymous. In other words, this kind of responsibility relationship based on undertaking is not based on a contract or a promise, but an objective relationship that cannot be named. It can be called a "Hidden" responsibility. You can feel it, but you can't prove it, just like God, or the "nature's god" that gave Franklin and others the will in the Declaration of Independence.

Statutory laws must be printed by sovereign political institutions, which is not easy to change, and can become rigid. It only conforms to the letter of the document without regard for the spirit of fairness, and sometimes appears pedantic. as a result of.

For example, the "logic genius", he put forward "you didn't hit the person, why did you rescue him", as long as the defendant can't defend himself, the judge can convict him according to the terms of the code.

The Good Samaritan Law is not codified, it only serves as a remedy, and it also applies to medical professionals, it does not encourage citizens to help themselves.

This also led to the situation where the girl in New York called for help in the middle of the night, but no one helped. Except for psychological problems such as responsibility sharing and multiple ignorance, people are selfish, and they will put themselves in danger if they come forward to help. , if she is just an ordinary passerby, or even a weak woman, and she rushes out to fight the robbers rashly, then if she herself is injured or dies, how will the responsibility be divided?

Because of the special nature of the medical field, professional doctors are included in the protection objects of the "Good Samaritan Law". At the same time, there are strict restrictions on practicing doctors to prevent him from doing whatever he wants with the exemption clause.

The United States is not without statutes, but there are many statutes. In addition to the legislative power of the Congress, the state legislature and the state government also have the legislative power. A state is like an independent sovereign country. Criminals only need to flee to another state, and the police in another state cannot cross the border to enforce the law. In case of conflict between the two, the Supreme Court needs to rule. If the circumstances are serious, the case will be dealt with together, such as economic crimes and criminal crimes. Car chases are frequent.

Before the purchase of Louisiana, the thirteen states in North America had no written laws, nor did the constitution of the suzerain England.

Henry VIII was an ambitious king. At the beginning, he strongly opposed Lutheranism. The pope called him the protector of the faith, but his Spanish queen could not give him a son. He asked the pope to declare him divorced, but the pope refused. So Henry broke with the Holy See, declared himself the supreme leader of the Church of England, and dissolved the monasteries to seize their wealth.

The Anglican Church no longer recognizes Rome and the Pope, but recognizes the King of England as its leader, and bishops are also ordered by the King. Constitutional priests are loyal to the French constitution and will no longer be under the jurisdiction of the pope. Their salaries will be paid by the French in the future.

The marriage relationship between Pomona and Severus is not valid for the First Consul. He is the First Consul and not a notary, let alone a religious leader... Skip this point. In order to make the British Constitution written, Bentham and his Allies are trying, like the Ten Commandments, to set the terms down and stop ambiguity.

France's constitution is very unstable, one after another, one after another, not as stable and durable as the United States, but the constitutions of the individual states never last long.

There are many reasons why the constitutions of other countries and nations cannot last. Sometimes it does not really reflect the basic habits and customs of a nation, and sometimes it cannot win the support and trust of the people because of changes in the environment.

The codification movement can be traced back to Francis Bacon, and Bentham transferred the key link of legal development from judges to legislators. He wrote to President Madison one after another, hoping to draft a complete code of laws for the United States, and warned They "closed our ports against the common law, as we have prevented the plague."

Yet Bentham was not a legislator, and for all his influence he had a difficult job, and to draw up a civil code required a man who knew the law better than Bentham, and the members of the composing committee for the Napoleonic Code were just Such a group of lawyers, Louisiana's Civil Code is based on the Napoleonic Code.

Georgiana used the terms of the Sackley Act to solve the body-snatching problem, which caused some discussion. Was she using "case law"?

As we all know, besides solving the problem of body theft, Sacrifa also solves the issue of the French king's succession to the throne. The topic of Napoleon being king is not new.

What does this chick want? Change French legislative rules to follow British ones? Or do you want to overthrow and restore the fruits of the entire French Revolution? She also euphemistically said that she read it from Montesquieu's book!

The point is that she solved the problem. Neither the French statute law nor the international law has a way to deal with corpse stealing. Because of the needs of the medical school, corpse stealing is no longer enough. The police sometimes simply go to the dissection table of the medical school to find murder cases. The key evidence - the body.

In another case, a staff officer molested the bakery owner's daughter, and the bakery owner beat the staff officer out, yelling, "My daughter is a decent person."

The staff officer scratched his neck and shouted, "That's what I like."

Seeing that there was going to be a duel, Georgiana appeared again. She took a knife to the girl who was being molested. She still used the Sacrifice method. A slave proposed to a free man. If the free man felt insulted, he would kill the girl. slave.

In Milan, young, handsome and charming French cavalrymen were especially popular with ladies. When Milanese heard about the French Revolution, they felt terrified. People were afraid of that kind of freedom and kept scolding him. However, Austria sent an incompetent The Grand Duke, he has no hobbies other than doing wheat business, and every time he does business, it will cause a food crisis.

This led to the fact that when Napoleon entered the city, the Milanese seemed to be celebrating a festival, and the National Guards in green, white, and red formed a human wall to clear the way for him. Many rural priests treated the soldiers well, and the soldiers were reprimanded by the officers the next day.

What Napoleon brought up was a kind of fanaticism. During the occupation of Milan, the army had no ambitions, and the officers refused to be promoted because they did not want to leave Milan. They are popular, needless to say beautiful words to seek the favor of women, they will show them the most charming and beautiful side of themselves.

The only one who can make Mars take off his armor is Venus. In fact, there are many women who want to seduce Bonaparte, from French ladies to German princesses, but none of them succeed, except Grassini, who originally wanted to seduce Bonaparte. Singing French opera in Italy.

Some people compared her appearance with other women. She is indeed beautiful, but not so beautiful as in the poems.

She was inferior to Josephine in femininity and shorter than Bonaparte.

Napoleon's height was considered average among malnourished commoners, but short among nobles and tall soldiers. It will also be recognized by others.

The dwarf should have low self-esteem. Louis XIV wore high heels, and the nobles and tall men who talked to him all lowered their heads, as if they were being lectured, and everyone was used to it.

If she had good eyes, there was a beauty from Brescia who looked at him affectionately, that is a country rich in beautiful eyes.

To say that she is simple, kind, and unpretentious, there are many women like this when the "Oriental Gate Castle" in Venice holds a ball.

Someone asked Lucien later, what was he looking for in her?

"Tell the man a word from Lucien," Lucius Malfoy said in a high-spirited manner, as if expecting Severus to ask him.

Severus ignored him, the red sap from the tree had already filled the bottle, enough liquid in it to turn the Seine red.

"He said, dream." Lucius said dryly, "Why are you so boring?"

Severus sneered again.

"Do you know what Churchill would say when he met him?" Severus tightened the cap tightly. "He can continue to dream. I don't need the company of dreams, because reality is better than dreams."

Lucius' eyes widened.

"Her body is still with me, didn't you say so?" Severus stared at Lucius and said contemptuously, "What else can a ghost do but dream?"
