Chapter 230: New

Palace of vienna
After learning that Franz took out the Lombard king's throne and deal with the Wittersbach dynasty, the Empress Sophie was relieved. This result can be explained to most family members.
The European aristocracy's relations were intricate and complicated. If the Austrian government took heart and forced a Serbian crown to the Wittelsbach dynasty, the empress Sophie would have no face to go home to see people.
You know, when the war broke out, Franz made a promise to the Bavarian royal family, and Queen Sophie was also pulled out as a guarantee.
Munich can be won through negotiations. On the one hand, it is really impossible to fight. On the other hand, everyone's interests are guaranteed. Naturally, no one will die with Austria.
If it were not for the royal family to choose to give up, the Wittelsbach family's century-old business would not even fight against the defense of Munich.
The Duke of the Principality of Pulfatz can only be regarded as a leader. This was originally the place where the Bavarian royal family ruled. Even if Austria did not support them, most of them were their title.
The foundation of the great aristocracy has been preserved, and Lombardy is certainly not politically comparable to Bavaria, but the Bavarian royal family has not suffered economically.
Even if the most important right is taken away by the central government, it is impossible to really turn the king into a rubber stamp, at least under the Austrian system.
Being suspended is only temporary. As long as the king has a little ability, he can take back most of his rights. As emperor Franz cannot tolerate bureaucracy.
Otherwise, the king below can be lifted today, and these people will dare to lift the emperor tomorrow.
Suspicion is the instinct of an emperor, and taboos must be resolutely suppressed, leaving no chance for the bureaucrats.
The Royal Palace of Munich, the Bavarian Royal Family has begun to move, they are no longer welcome here. Neither the people nor the bureaucrats want him to stay.
In everyone's opinion, exchanging the throne of the Bavarian royal family and Austria is the best choice so that everyone can get along well.
People who declare neutrality during the war no longer have to worry about being accounted for after the fall. The royal family has a good place, and they can be confident in loyalty to the Habsburg dynasty.
Looking at the slowly closing palace door, Maximilian II sighed, and the Wettersbach dynasty's of the Kingdom of Bavaria was so over. He would soon be Maximilian I of Lombardy. .
As if it was a curse, the Wittelsbach dynasty ruled many places, but basically it didn't last long. The Bavarian kingdom was just one of them.
The Wittersbach dynasty still had some family members. Even after leaving, there were still many people following it. Soon they gathered a team of thousands and marched to the capital of the Lombard kingdom under the guard of the royal family.
This is also the reason why the Austrian government is unwilling to use strong forces. The entrenched royal family is not so easy to deal with. Now that it is so good, they have left on their own initiative.
If their faces are torn, these people will cause damage, and it is estimated that in three years and five years, Bavaria will not be peaceful.

Napoleon III smashed angrily without knowing how many vases. The reason was very simple. There was a problem with his marriage, and most of the royal families in Europe did not look at him as an explosive family.
Not long ago, he was about to marry the Corolla County Lord, who abdicated from the royal family in Sweden, but was rejected. Now he has offered a marriage to Princess Adelheide of Hohenlohe-Langenburg and has been rejected again.
Not only him, in fact, even the famous Napoleon has worried about this problem, the big aristocrats look down on them, but the European continent is the world of bloodlines.
The lineage is not noble enough, and the legitimacy of the rule will be questioned. Own pedigree is not noble enough, then rely on marriage to make up.
Napoleon III was deeply touched. He was just Napoleon's nephew. The domestic people did not recognize him highly, and he urgently needed a political marriage to secure his position.
Since 1851, he has been suffering from this problem. Until now there have been no results. The big aristocrat looked down on him, and he looked down on the small noble.
Not to blame him for being angry, because he is also the emperor of France. Even if the princess is not married, the princess next to him can always? As a result, don't say the genuine princess, the princess who abdicated from the royal family despise him.
He was rejected three or five times, and he could only tolerate such a thing.
Maybe after venting, Napoleon III asked coldly, "What other candidates?"
Gong Xiang whispered, "Your Majesty, the candidate status behind is a bit low, and it is not worth your status!"
Napoleon III glanced at him fiercely. Isn't this pot not to mention which pot? He is not worthy to marry!
In this context, Eugenie de Montijo, a Spanish noblewoman of Scottish descent, appeared in the French court.
Napoleon III did not want to continue to toss, if he could not marry an equivalent status, marry someone he likes.
On December 1, 1853, Napoleon III announced to all senior officials that he was about to get married. At the same time, he pointed out that he wanted to make this marriage free from the French and the foreign kings:
"I like a woman I love and respect, more than a strange woman who marries the pros and cons of marriage."
The pioneers of free love appeared, and it can be said that Napoleon III made a good start, and many of them followed his example.
The after-meal smile in the eyes of the aristocracy was quickly passed to Vienna and attracted the attention of the Vienna court. The immediate consequence was that Franz's single day was about to end.
...
Metternich reminded: "Your Majesty, does the Ceremony really need to be prepared? This will make people laugh!"
A new empire is about to be established, and a crown will be added to Franz's head. Naturally, a ceremony is indispensable.
Now Franz actually ordered that it is not necessary to make preparations in advance, and it is enough to simply hold the ceremony. To many people, it is a child's play.
Franz smiled bitterly: "There is no way. Although the time has passed for a few months, the people are still worried about the division of the German region.
At this time, we are too big, and it is easy to cause everyone's dissatisfaction. It is better to forget it, to show our protest to the outcome of the Paris conference. "
You can't collapse people. Now he is a and benevolent emperor in the eyes of the outside world, so it is his job to be dissatisfied with the Paris conference.
Whether it is making remarks against the meeting or writing articles directly to force them, they are all set around this person.
The young emperor made this decision in anger without any problems, just to get the public's approval, so as not to be harmless.
Cumberland I, who had just been upgraded from King Hanover to Emperor of the Federal Republic of Germany, was such an unlucky guy. He didn't do anything from beginning to end, and was scolded by writers in the German region.
The country is a comedy empire, and the emperor is naturally also a comedy emperor. This elegant number is expected to accompany him, and has been passed down.
Of course, his throne was originally comedy. Hanover and Britain were the common masters before 1837. In this year, William IV fell to Queen Victoria's throne, and the situation changed because of the incorrectly extended Salek inheritance law. Content, the throne fell on his head.
The reason for saying comedy was that everyone ignored it at that time. Prior to this, Emperor Shen Luo ’s
National Book
could be used as the legal basis for women to inherit the throne. .
When it was found out, the throne had been determined. People who were dissatisfied with Cumberland I often talked about this issue, and now they are further upgraded to comedy emperors.
The emperor had limited rights and could not control the opinions of the local states. The people were in a bad mood, so he caught the emperor and scolded him.
In fact, Cumberland I was very peaceful and hardly engaged in anything, including the fact that this throne could fall to him, was the result of various games.
Austria is naturally the emperor who advocated Franz concurrently as the German Federal Empire, citing the highest level of popular support.
Obviously this is unacceptable to all parties. If Franz becomes emperor, it is estimated that the German region will be unified after decades.
The Habsburgs are experienced in this regard. Now the Austrian Empire is so integrated. What is the difference between Franz serving as emperor and Shinra regeneration?
The British launched the Hanover royal family. The newly established federal empire is based on Hanover. They are competitive. The disadvantage is that King Hanover's reputation in the German region is not enough.
If Franz launches a younger brother to compete for the throne, relying on the prestige of the Habsburgs, plus the state government does not want Hannover to grow, the chances of being elected are almost 100%.
Obviously, this is impossible. Austria also wants to unify the German region. If a younger brother becomes the emperor of the German Federal Empire, shouldn't he trouble himself?
The Habsburgs were out, and only the royal families of these states were in contention. The Hanover royal family with British support naturally defeated many competitors and reaped the fruits of victory.
...
At the insistence of Franz, on December 22, 1853, he was crowned "the emperor of the new Holy Roman Empire" in the Palace of Vienna.
The coronation ceremony was a child's play. No guests were invited to participate. They were all the "new Holy Roman Empire". After accepting the pledge of allegiance from several states, it was over.
From beginning to end, everyone was somber and could not see any joy.
After the ceremony, Franz delivered a self-deprecating speech in the National Assembly:
"Today I have added a crown to my head, and the pressure on my shoulders has increased a bit.
Honestly, I am not happy. The Southern Holy Roman Empire is more relevant than the New Holy Roman Empire.
In any case, the Holy Roman Empire was finally re-established. Even if it was joked and became the laughingstock of the world, it was better than nothing.
There is still a long way ahead and we need to go on. Today we are one step further than yesterday, so can we go further than today?
Since the mission of history falls on us, it must be fulfilled.
Someone asked me, when will the German region be unified, and the answer I give is: When will it become the world's number one power, consider this question again!
We are very close to this goal, because there are only two countries in the front that we need to surpass; we are also very far away from this goal, because the national power gap is really large.
The road is ahead, are you afraid?
... "
Fortunately, Franz has self-control, knowing that some words cannot be uttered, otherwise "neither sacred, nor Roman, nor empire" would almost come out.
The current new Holy Roman Empire, although there is no Holy and Roman, but anyway, it is barely an Empire! As for the first two, it is a pity that this can never be done.
Franz is not God. Where does it come from?
What's the use of "Rome" other than its fame?
It seems that Franz's self-deprecation has aroused everyone's resonance, or the Austrian government attaches importance to guiding public opinion, and the New Holy Roman Empire has finally not caused group ridicule.
