Chapter 346: Pitted

On April 15, 1863, the Kingdom of Sardinia passed a referendum and the election of Napoleon III as King opened the prelude to the annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia by France.
There is no doubt that this referendum cannot be a full participation of the people, and those who are eligible to vote are celebrities who support France.
More than 600 representatives of the Kingdom of Sardinia elected Napoleon III as King. Enlarging this number by 10,000 times and rounding it down means that all the people of Sardinia elected Napoleon III as king.
Prior to this, all those involved in the Junjun case had completed the trial, dead, closed, and wanted.
In short, the monarch must go to hell, which is the common will of all monarchy countries.
As for the truth of the matter, it is no longer important. The clues have been dealt with by the French. It is impossible to reverse the case.
Those who were able to escape from the prison were smart people, and they cooperated with the French as soon as possible.
To put it plainly, everyone knows that the so-called suspect is a fallacy. Those who really joined in either ran or were executed.
Now that the French want to annex the Kingdom of Sardinia, they must clear away their dissidents, but this must also have a reason, and can't just kill people casually? Taking the opportunity to fabricate wrong and false injustices is a good way.
Now that all delegations have left the Kingdom of Sardinia, in the case of the French family's dominance, of course, everything is theirs.
After the referendum came out, the international community was naturally upset. Countries acquiesced to the annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia by France, but this does not mean that everyone would support their annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia.
In public opinion, the French were still scolded. Many international figures are calling for vigilance against French expansion and to avoid a second European war.
The Italians, the victims, even organized a petition to seek help from European countries, hoping to use international pressure to force the French to abandon the annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia.
As one of the European powers, the Vienna government also received petitions. After reading the petition submitted by the Italians, Franz had to admit that the writing was very touching, but unfortunately it was useless.
Franz sneered and said: "Tell them that we regret this incident, but this incident is indeed the fault of the Sardinian government itself.
Everyone is responsible for their own actions. When the Sardinian government supports extremist organizations, it should consider the possible backlash.
After the incident, the people of Sardinia have also stood by the extremist groups to cover up the murderers and escape. It is time for the people of Sardinia to pay for this. "
To some extent, France's annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia is also a good thing.
From now on, the biggest enemy of Italian nationalists is not Austria, but ambitious France.
The annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia was only the beginning. Once the Pandora's Box was opened, it could no longer be taken back.
Stimulated by the successful annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia, the French radicals will certainly rise in arrogance, this is no longer a Napoleon III can hold.
The proud French has always had a dream of world overlord.
Without this stimulus, Napoleon III was still reluctant to live in the town, and now he is waiting to be pushed into the chariot by nationalists!
Prime Minister Felix proposed: "Sir, we want to support the Italians, and let them trouble the French, so that they don't let the French get overwhelmed."
Obviously, after the annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia, the French had drifted away and became a bit forgotten, as if they were the world overlords.
When Prime Minister Felix saw this kind of thing, he naturally felt very angry and wanted to teach them a lesson.
Franz said with a smile: "It's not necessary. Italian nationalists are also our enemies. Let the French clean up them now.
Now that the French are floating, let them float for a while. Now the hegemons on the European continent are Russians, the sea hegemons are British, and Britain and Russia are not in their prime. What are we going to do? "
Now that Britain and Russia have shared the world hegemony, France and Austria are the next-level challengers. Because everyone's strength is too close, France and Austria will naturally not be willing to give up.
Franz is not ready to challenge, because the odds are too low and the benefits are not generous.
There is the most oil and water at sea, but unfortunately Austria cannot compete with the British and can only wait for the time. The gains on land are not high, and there are too many countries on the European continent. When they are triggered, they move their bodies, and they are easily pulled and buried by the Russians.
The same thing happened to the French, and even more troublesome. The second child in the world is not good, especially the army and navy are the second child, which attracted the boss's hatred value in heaven.
Add the words "Napoleon" and no one dares to ignore it. Napoleon III inherited Napoleon's legacy, and naturally inherited the hatred he left behind.
Even if you act in a low-key manner, such arrogance can easily cause all countries to rebound, especially the older generation who have experienced the anti-French war has not died.
Felix said the opposite: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this will not work. Even if Austria wants to hide, it's impossible to hide.
The French tentacles have penetrated into central and southern Italy. If we don't interfere, who knows what the French with too much self-confidence will do? "
To put it simply, the interests of France and Austria in the south of Italy have conflicted, and it is only a matter of time before conflicts occur.
Franz said calmly: "It doesn't matter, this is the future. The Kingdom of Sardinia is not so well integrated, and the French should be very peaceful in continental Europe within three or five years.
After three or five years, the reform of the Tsarist government has also been initially completed. The system of the three major European nations is still balanced, and we can move forward. "
It's not Franz's pride, this is the reality. Is Italy so easy to annex? Austria has promoted national integration for so many years, and the slowest progress is in Austrian Italy.
This is a cultural issue. Don't look at the scattered sand in Italy. It may seem like a weak chicken, but their heritage is very complete in culture, and it is no weaker than French culture.
Now in Lombardy and Venesia, the locals have learned German and use German to write every day, but the Italian cultural tradition has not disappeared.
After more than ten years of hard work, it can only be said that the Italianized Germanic people have been brought back, and the goal of integrating the Italians is still only the goal.
In contrast, the national integration work carried out by Austria in Bohemia, Hungary, Croatia, and the Balkans has been much smoother.
Many small nations without cultural heritage are now fully Germanic. Of course, the long-term management of the Habsburgs is also related. From the beginning, these people recognized this brand.
What is the nature of national integration?
The answer is: I agree!
As long as this is done, the subsequent problems are easy to handle.
If you look closely, you will find that many ethnic minorities in Austria are very similar in life habits to the Germans.
Some nations are even called: "Slavic Germans." This means that apart from language incompatibility, living habits and folk customs have become Germanic.
The main reason for this is that the aristocratic lords came from the German region, and the people did not consciously go down, or in the era of serfdom, the noble lords ordered them to change their living habits.
These special national conditions are the reasons for the smooth integration of ethnic groups. Even if the native language still exists, it has become a dialect.
Most of this generation will also speak in dialect. It is estimated that the next generation will barely be able to understand it. If they live in the city, it is estimated that the inheritance will be almost broken.
Even after two or three generations in the countryside, these languages ​​will still be passed down because learning is useless. People are inert. Why can't they learn a language that they can't use after birth?
In this era, the average life expectancy is short, and the time to get married and have children is relatively early. Many people have children at the age of seventeen or eighteen.
So far, German has become popular. The generation of compulsory education since childhood has recognized the German culture.
German was used to communicate and write in any town in the Empire, with the exception of Italy. Seventy to eighty percent of Italians used Italian to communicate outside of work.
Of course, due to the influx of other ethnic groups, those who adhere to the Italian language have fallen to six floors in the proportion of the total local population.
There is no way, the cultural heritage of Italy is not backward, and the frequent trade and commercial exchanges with the central Italian state, this situation has only emerged.
Not to mention the countryside, many people have learned German, but Italian is still used to everyday life.
Had it not been for the liberation of serfs from the beginning and the use of land to buy farmers and cultivate their sense of identity with Austria, Austrian Italy would not be so stable now.
The French did not do the same thing, because the Serbian kingdom had already done the liberation of serfs.
In addition to attracting local factions, the French government has no way to buy in a large number of lower-level people, which leaves room for nationalists to move.
Throughout history, the main force of each revolution is the people at the bottom. When have you seen the capitalists run and charge?
Under normal circumstances, as long as the people at the bottom live a good life and have a high degree of recognition of the government, no large-scale rebellion will occur.
The degree of identification is the biggest shortcoming of Napoleon III. The main reason for the French people's recognition is that he has an uncle who is a cow fork, not how much he is loved.
The Italians are different. They are very happy to see the Napoleon family become the French royal family. But getting them to be loyal to the Napoleon family wouldn't work.
Everyone did not agree with bloodlines, let alone be annexed by France? If their interests are harmed again, then rebellion will be raised.
Promote ethnic integration? Sorry, France has no compulsory education. How could it be possible to provide compulsory education to the Kingdom of Sardinia first?
When it comes to self-interest, the French people are very sensitive in this regard. Even if the Paris government wants to promote the integration of languages, it must also do it in conjunction with domestic compulsory education.
This involves a series of problems. In short, the Paris government cannot do it in a short time.
During the period of military control, the Kingdom of Sardinia will certainly be very peaceful, and once normal order is restored, what will happen is uncertain.
