Harry Potter Morning Light

When the Glorious Revolution took place in Britain, although Britain gradually changed from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy, unlike the French Revolution, the alliances, treaties, and dispute resolution mechanisms between Britain and European monarchies remained as usual. France's nascent constitutional monarchy, which repudiated all principles and precedents and declared that international relations would be treated as domestic ones, inevitably heightened friction between France and European monarchical courts.

In 1791, the news that Louis XVI tried to escape and was hunted back soon spread throughout Europe. This news not only shook the foundation of the entire country, but also meant that once the king escaped successfully, a civil war with foreign intervention was inevitable. All this happened in the Netherlands in 1787. The difference is that William V was expelled from the Netherlands. His Prussian wife went all the way to find the regent to support William V, but was persuaded to return by volunteers in South Holland. Her older brother, the King of Prussia, used this as an excuse to launch an invasion that would eventually lead to the collapse of the patriotic cause in the Netherlands.

In the entire German-speaking world, before the Great Revolution, they supported the "reasonable cause". Before the 1980s, the Enlightenment movement was mainly at the "moderate" level. Frederick the Great himself liked the French Enlightenment thinkers very much, and even invited Voltaire to his court.

The king's departure made the situation deteriorate rapidly. Some factions in France that were originally vaguely neutral chose their own positions. The court and themselves take back what was there.

Many French people believe that wars with Austria, Prussia, and the Rhineland are inevitable and likely to happen. The Elector of Mainz abandoned the original enlightened reforms and denied the Enlightenment. Cologne and Terry The Archbishop of Seoul both followed the example of the Elector of Mainz and accommodated thousands of noble exiles in his own territory.

The French Legislative Assembly issued an ultimatum in November 1791, ordering the electors to expel all exiles and troops accumulated on their territories by the prince-in-exile by January 15, 1792. In December 1791, the Vienna court responded by threatening war and demanding that France withdraw its ultimatum immediately.

This was followed by Berlin, The Hague, Rome, Turin, Naples and Madrid, all with similar responses. Then the wind in French politics shifted from domestic affairs to the wisdom of going to war with other countries.

At this time, Louis XVI's position became extremely difficult. Should he support the National Assembly's request for war, or should he obstruct the war and achieve the goal of allowing foreign forces to interfere?

Louis XVI finally chose to go to war, and even dismissed the ministers of the Feiyang faction who obstructed him, and recalled the republican Roland and Clavier.

The signing of the "Amiens Treaty" with the United Kingdom brought great political dividends to Napoleon. After all, "world peace" was achieved. On National Day, someone carved a sculpture of an "Angel of Peace" for him.

He canceled the conscription in 1802 and limited the conditions for conscription. Except for the exemption from military service announced by Belgium, the elderly over the age of 71 who need their sons to support them, the only child of a widow, and all family dependents are exempted and do not need to be filled. Because of the "difference" caused by the Santo Domingo expedition.

These are all "gossips", but they spread with nose and eyes. In this way, Napoleon seems to be really peace-loving. He forced Prussia to express his position on the Hamburg issue and what Aachen did seems to be not for war, but for the sake of peace. Seek justice for yourself?

If anyone really believes in this evil, no one can help you.

First of all, two kinds of people must be distinguished. One is a well-educated young man who may have been educated in a seminary, teacher training, or university, and the other is a farmer and casual laborer. A decent bed, a suit of clothes, a good pair of shoes, a guaranteed daily supply of bread, and regular meat are enough for the latter, but far from enough for the former.

Georgiana has read Napoleon's textbooks, and she has a headache just reading calculus, which is necessary for calculating ballistics, and these require well-educated young people.

The other is the ability to march over long distances, the ability to resist bad weather. These require farmers and casual laborers, who are physically strong and, because of poverty, have become accustomed to material poverty and hard work. The elderly who live to the age of 71 and still need their sons to support them are often not rich. He either cannot afford the high cost of his son’s education, so that he can only work as a farmer and a casual worker, or he cannot afford to support his son if he pays his son’s tuition. Exempting these people from military service, in addition to being a great favor to the poor, also means preserving future soldiers.

The corporal swearing, the rude orders, the barracks ration of cauldron and bread were for the cadets, the young men who enlisted as volunteers and found life in the army new.

When Napoleon was in Egypt, he gave up his donkeys to scholars. For the French army lacking horses, long journeys were normal, but for scholars it was unbearable. It is impossible to make them like other people through intensive training, just like asking ordinary soldiers to read calculus, which is like a bible to them.

These student soldiers will be mixed with ordinary peasants, and the condition is that they must serve for ten years, or even for life. They have expanded their enrollment, which corresponds to the expansion of enrollment in institutions of higher learning. Substitutes were also allowed if they could not bear the hardships of war, while those deemed useful to the country continued to work and study while becoming soldiers.

This means that even if the student's father is a poor man, the student can still obtain state subsidies to continue his studies in this way. Although there is no salary, he does not pay for food, clothing and housing in the army. Also save some money.

Come to think of it, who would wear an army uniform to the Royal Palace and what would a gendarme do?

In the case of reduced grain production in the Baltic Sea, leading to fluctuations in grain prices, and the need for more labor to increase grain production, the value of conscripting farmers into the army is not as high as the value of his farming at home.

And for those students who don't know what the future holds after graduation, the army has given them a sense of belonging, at least they can live comfortably and don't have to be instigated by some caring people.

If talent is deprived when it is in its prime, it will wither like a plant, and the strength of the people will be weakened, which in turn will affect the strength of the country.

A soldier in his prime, if he does not aspire to be a colonel or a lieutenant general, his limited perspective will hinder the use of imagination, and his ambitions will be in vain.

Georgiana's charity tax in Belgium was of course met with resistance, and it was true that the money was used to support war orphans and other victims of the war, but for bachelors they were unwilling to pay it. Those war orphans are not his children, so why should he raise other people's children?

Who doesn't want to have a romantic love at a young age?

Who doesn't want to have fun when it's crowded?

But how many years are the most prosperous age in life?

When Pomona was living in an apartment in South Kensington, she once saw an ambulance coming to the building next door. A Middle Eastern prince in his 30s died suddenly.

There are many young widows in Holland, rich and free, and there are few who do not envy them.

I perceive a beat, step by step, and a sound, what do I perceive?

"So, I have a bad idea?" Georgiana asked Raggett.

Raggett shook his head, "I don't know, ma'am, the only thing I know is that your guardian can't bear the pressure around him."

She recalled it.

"You mean..."

"Ireland is just a small country, I suggest you change to a stronger country." Laggett interrupted her.

"Like?" Georgiana asked.

Raggert smiled and shook his head, "This is not something that the Netherlands can participate in. I'm just a suggestion. It's up to you to decide whether to adopt it or not."

"Who would have thought that my guardian would become such a complicated issue." She laughed and rang the bell, and soon Margaret came in.

"Give us two beers, my dear," said Georgiana.

"Yes, ma'am," said Margaret, and left the room.

"You didn't ask me what I would like to drink, ma'am," said Raggett.

"Oh, would you like some wine?" Georgiana said with a smile. "I thought you were Dutch."

"I'd say there are a thousand beers to choose from, and you might prefer one over butterbeer," Laggert said with a laugh.

If it had been a few days earlier, she would have agreed.

But she just diverted from the topic and continued to "chat".
