Harry Potter Morning Light
Chapter 450 North and South Independence
Every wizard must abide by a rule that wizards cannot participate in Muggle wars, otherwise it will bring unimaginable curses.
Not everyone in Queen Victoria's British Parliament was an extreme imperialist like Palmerston. In fact, he didn't pay attention to the royal couple at all. He was so arrogant that he was in a mess, just like the Japanese government after the Meiji Restoration a virtue.
After Priscilla Dupont was dismissed for abusing magic, Doug McPhail became the new Minister of Magic. During this period, nothing major happened in the magic world, but the Muggle Parliament experienced violent turmoil because the American Civil War broke out. .
During the period of Justinian I, because of the war with Persia, silk could not be imported, the supply of raw materials stopped, the domestic handicraft industry around silk stopped, and civilian strikes could not solve the problem.
Due to the Nika riots, the emperor was no longer Augustus in the hearts of the common people, but a tyrant. If the Indians hadn’t brought the silkworm seeds to Syria in time, the Eastern Roman Empire would have been overthrown by the angry people and lost this barrier. The divided Western Rome and the Church alone cannot resist the invasion of the Persians, the Scourge of God, and the Arab Empire.
In the 1850s, one-fifth of the British population directly or indirectly relied on the manufacturing of cotton products for their livelihoods. Cotton replaced silk and became the main economic pillar of the textile industry, and 80% of the raw materials for this manufacturing industry depended on cotton. The American South supplies, and once the southern cotton supply is cut off, the main British industry will be paralyzed, causing mass unemployment.
In the eyes of the imperialists, the United States was a British colony, but the Americans declared their independence, and many British people regarded the United States as a potential enemy.
The outbreak of the American Civil War was an opportunity for the United Kingdom. A divided United States is easier to deal with than a unified United States. Coupled with the chain of interests, the British supported the southerners and the Yankees. On the surface, they pursued a policy of neutrality, but in fact they secretly provided funds and funds to the South. Weapons aid.
In 1860, the British and French allied forces plundered the Old Summer Palace, and at the same time, the cotton harvest in the south was abundant. By the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861, the harvested cotton had been shipped to Britain. At that time, there was a surplus of cotton in the market, and Egypt and India had found new cotton supplies. In terms of the market, Britain's support for the South is actually not strong.
The determination of slaves in the north to be free is strong. The battlefield is a casino for men to change their destiny. As a result, the Civil War between the North and the South became a "jihad" for the North to eradicate slavery in the South. The international environment in the North was greatly improved, and Britain, France, and Spain lost their excuse for intervention. The situation in the South was over, and the South and the plan to intervene in the American Civil War had to be finally abandoned.
Books about the American Civil War are not just history books written by men, there is a book called Gone with the Wind, it's about a Heska Southern girl growing up from a teenage girl to a woman, once aristocratic out of power and that's it , must do whatever it takes to survive.
On the British side, people who used to have close interests with the southerners of the United States suffered huge losses. Parliamentary seats were obtained by votes, and campaigns required funds, and voters were needed in addition to funds.
In 1832, the British Parliament held a reform. The Tory Party was the land aristocracy, while the Whig Party represented the financial and commercial classes. Because of cotton and the industry around cotton, a new industrial bourgeoisie was formed. Industry needed population. The migration of the population will increase the population of some industrial cities, while the population of rural areas will decrease and become declining constituencies. The seats of the Tory Party will decrease, and the seats of the Whig Party will increase. Property and status demands, the industrial bourgeoisie and the well-to-do peasants of the countryside were given the right to vote.
The reform in 1867 further expanded the list of candidates. Anyone who has a house in the city, owns a house and has lived in it for more than one year, and has a net annual income of more than 10 pounds can stand for election. In this way, there are skilled workers with high wages among the workers Workers also had the right to vote, thus completing the struggle of the industrial bourgeoisie to participate in politics, and the power of the House of Nobles was further reduced.
British democracy means that if you have no money, you have no power. Capital is rampant and has no scruples. Even if rich people break the law, they don’t have to worry about it. They can get away with a good lawyer. James Potter said that laws and rules are given to It was established by someone with no power and influence, and what he said was absolutely correct.
In addition to cotton, there are also artillery shells in the industry. After the Civil War, the United States needed to rebuild its damaged cities after the Civil War. At this time, the military supplies during the Civil War became idle items, especially the things of the Southern Army. It happened that Japan The Fall of the Curtain Movement began. The Changzhou and Satsuma clans in the south launched a civil war under the banner of respecting the king and fighting barbarians. They hired ronin in Kyoto to assassinate important political figures, and Kyoto was shrouded in a bloody storm.
At this time, Britain and France saw the market again. After two rounds of looting, almost all of China’s wealth was transported away, while Japan has never been rich, but they worked very hard, diligently, and wanted to become stronger. During the Tang Dynasty, they Tang envoys were sent to study in China, and the American black ships sailed into Edo and opened their doors again, and they began to study Europe.
The Aizu Domain, which protected the Emperor, bought supplies from the Southern Army, but they were supported by the French, and the Changzhou Domain bought the Armstrong guns from the British. Due to the technical blockade, the artillery sold by the British to Changzhou was not as powerful as the country’s use. It is good, and there are still serious technical defects. The Japanese began to prevent this amazingly powerful cannon. After the success of the restoration government, they invested a lot of money to develop their own industries, and sent overseas students to learn British shipbuilding technology. Finally, in 1890 Victory in the Sino-Japanese naval battle of Sino-Japanese War.
During the Restoration, Emperor Meiji was very frugal, but there are rumors that he was not a child of Emperor Komei of the North.
Emperor Xiaomei was a staunch anti-barbarian faction, and he was on the same front with the shogunate. It is impossible for Japan, which is still in the cold weapon era, to defeat Britain, France and other countries that have completed the industrial revolution. The Changzhou people are very "wise" to assassinate He buried the 36-year-old emperor with honorable etiquette, and elected Emperor Meiji to the throne.
It is not unique to the Chinese to make princes with the emperor. A long time ago, when the Tang Dynasty was about to be chased, the emperor was divided into the southern dynasty and the northern dynasty. Due to the marriage of close relatives, the emperor's children were basically weak, while the royal blood of the southern dynasty was weak. Married with a foreign surname, the body is relatively strong.
After Emperor Meiji ascended the throne, he lived a Western-style life in an all-round way. He drank milk and ate bread and steak like foreigners. Wizards still maintain the oriental tradition, not only benevolence, filial piety, propriety, righteousness and trustworthiness, but also loyalty and responsibility, which is different from Muggles who can run amok with money.
Qiu Zhang is a girl, so she looks docile and harmless. The Chinese wizard who used the poet's name as his pseudonym to sneak into the XZ snowman camp initially wanted to eliminate these people, and then blamed XZ snowman It was just that he stood alone in the snow, meditating with the sword in his hand, so that his heart became empty, and finally decided not to do anything.
As for why, maybe only he himself knows.
"Your food is here." Just as the two of them were tired, the waiter brought the BJ roast duck. The duck was sliced into thin slices and placed on a plate. It looked delicious.
I heard that Chinese ducks are all stuffed. I don’t know if this British duck is also raised by stuffing.
Pomona felt great sympathy for the poor duck, but the guilt was only temporary, and she was hungry enough to eat a hippogriff.
