A genius remembers the address of this site in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads!? Time passed quickly, after more than half a year of tossing, Bulgaria finally successfully completed the handover of the Caucasus with the Russians.
How to manage this area has become a difficult problem in Ferdinand's mind.
Geographically speaking, the Caucasus is located between the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea, surrounded by mountains, overlapping and stretching deep.
There are small lakes between the mountains, the lakes are green and quiet, and waterfalls are dotted.
The scenery is very good, suitable for the development of tourism. Unfortunately, this is not the 21st century, so all these advantages have become disadvantages!
(Remarks: The Caucasus region covers an area of approximately 440,000 square kilometers, and is now in the southwest of Russia and the northern part of Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia)
From the resource point of view, this is really good. Oil and natural gas resources are very rich, and the reserves of coal, copper, manganese, molybdenum, tungsten and other mineral resources are not small.
If you want to develop the local economy, you can only rely on mining in a short time, but before that, you must first build roads.
Ferdinand is too lazy to complain about the traffic situation in Russia. At least now, the total mileage of Bulgaria's railway is twice that of the Russians, and the total mileage of roads is five times that of Russia.
If you know the area of the territory, Bulgaria is almost half that of the Russians, and the traffic conditions of the Russians can be imagined.
What makes Ferdinand gratified is that the local economy has been completely destroyed by successive civil wars, and a large number of young and strong laborers have been recruited into the army, so there is no need to worry about rebellion.
At present, the population of the Caucasus is between 5.8 million and 6.6 million. Most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, with only a few young people.
However, the composition of this population is very complicated. There are Armenians, Russians, Azerbaijanis, Georgians, Nakhchos (Chechens), Galges (Ingushes), Avars, Darkins, Rezkins, Kurds, Balkars, Kabardas, Ukrainians, Ossetians...
With a population of five or six million, there are hundreds of ethnic groups. There is no dominant ethnic group. Except for the Russians, there is no other ethnic group whose population exceeds 300,000.
Ferdinand was very speechless to discover that he seemed to have helped Nicholas II solve a big problem. The most fierce republics in later generations were all taken over by Bulgaria.
For example: Chechen Republic, Ingushetia, Dagestan, Kabardino-Balkaria, North Ossetia, etc.
Sure enough, I'm still so helpful, and the future Russian Empire will no longer have to worry about these ethnic issues, Ferdinand thought to himself.
The more complex the ethnic composition, the more difficult it is to rule and at the same time it is easy to be assimilated by Bulgaria.
Among them, Armenians, Russians, and Ukrainians are the easiest to be assimilated. Bulgaria is very experienced in this regard.
The closer the language and culture, and the same living habits, the easier it is to achieve national integration, and they themselves will not resist this integration.
The most troublesome thing is that the language is not communicated, and the religion and culture are different. This kind of people are difficult to assimilate, or even unable to integrate ethnic groups at all.
Fortunately, the Russians have worked hard for one hundred and eighty years. Russian has become the local lingua franca, and Orthodox Church has become the local mainstream religion.
If you start from scratch, it is estimated that Ferdinand will be blind. After all, in the peaceful age, many radical methods are not available. Natural assimilation makes it difficult for one generation to succeed, and the next generation can’t wait for time.
"Little Ferdinand, can you tell me the main reason for the cabinet's plan to divide the Caucasus region into two provinces and 28 regions?" Ferdinand asked the school.
Little Ferdinand, who had just returned to Sofia, was so thundered. Shouldn't it be time to ask me about this trip to Europe? At least I have to ask, this trip to Holland, right? Why don't you play cards according to common sense?
"To check and balance!" Little Ferdinand thought for a while and said
"Wrong! It seems that this trip to Europe, your harvest is very average!" Ferdinand exclaimed
"Ah!" Little Ferdinand exclaimed in a mess
"I have sent you all the cabinet briefings. According to the cabinet's plan, most local residents will be practiced and evacuated to other places, and then people from other regions will fill the vacancy.
Did you take it seriously? The proportion of the local population has been diluted. In this case, is it necessary to balance the division of administrative regions?
As long as you open the map and look at the resource distribution and geographical conditions on it, you can find that the division of administrative regions this time is entirely for the development of the local economy.
You can make mistakes on such a simple question. It is not easy! "Ferdinand said helplessly
In order to get rid of the tedious government affairs as soon as possible, Ferdinand decided to train a few sons first. Especially the Crown Prince Ferdinand, as the future heir to Bulgaria, will take over these tasks sooner or later.
"But, Father, I'm really busy these days, you should know how many banquets I attended and how many contacts I made during this trip to Europe!" Little Ferdinand explained.
"Of course, but it has nothing to do with making wrong judgments. Didn't I educate you?
When you don't understand the situation, you must first understand the situation, and don't make blind judgments based on your subjective consciousness!
Did your emperor learn for nothing? The lessons that I have worked so hard to teach you have all been regarded as ears? "Ferdinand said angrily
"Oh, damn! Dear father, you have to believe me, I listen to the class every day, absolutely nothing is missed!
This time it was mainly a momentary negligence. As you know, I just traveled to Europe and I haven't adjusted my state yet! "Little Ferdinand explained
"Very well, you said it yourself. Don't blame me for not giving you the opportunity. I will leave it to you to deal with the governance issues in the Caucasus.
If you can't come up with a plan that satisfies me, then maybe you are a senior official in the two provinces of the Caucasus! "Ferdinand thought for a while and said
"No, my father will have an accident. Your son doesn't have any experience in serving a local office. Let us preside over a provincial job. This is extremely irresponsible!"
If you get out of the basket, you still need to do the aftermath in the end, you don't have to ask for trouble at all! "Little Ferdinand suggested
"Well, indeed! You don't have experience in the ruling party. It is indeed difficult to be responsible for the daily work of a province, or I will change your place.
We also have a lot of colonizations in Africa. If you go to the interior of Africa and serve as the governor of a certain place, there shouldn’t be any trouble. Even if you force all the local natives to turn back, I can hold it. ! "Ferdinand said calmly
"God! It's better to let me go to the Caucasus as a high-ranking official. The African jungle is really terrible. We haven't completely digested the local area for so many years. I don't think I can do better!
Dear father, do you want to watch your precious son die young? "Little Ferdinand said with a bitter face
"It's not that serious. I will match you with the best doctor. At most, I will let you lie on the bed for ten and a half months.
The mortality rate of non-conformity is still very low. We must know that our local migrants have died because of non-conformity.
Your body is so strong, how could it be finished so easily? Of course, if God is eager to see you, I can’t help it!
If you don’t want to go to a place to work, it’s best if you can devote one hundred percent of your energy to the rest of your work. I don’t want to hear any more of such a negligent explanation! "Ferdinand strikes
Originally, he planned to train Ferdinand to take over, but he went to the European continent, and Ferdinand found that Ferdinand had a bad condition.
The whole person has expanded a lot. If he encountered a problem before, he would analyze it carefully, and check the information if he was unclear. As a result, he began to draw conclusions directly by relying on his subjective consciousness.
It would be fine if he was an ordinary person, but as the heir to Bulgaria, this shortcoming is very fatal.
In order to correct his bad problem at the first time, Ferdinand decided to sharpen his temper and send him to a local post. This is not a joke, but after careful consideration.
As for going to the African colonies, this is of course a joke.
Ferdinand did not go mad, and exiled the crown prince to a colony far from the political center. Didn't he have enough to eat and have too little trouble for himself?
"Well, but my dear father, are you serious?" Little Ferdinand asked very worried.
"That's right, I decided to let you go to a local office to accumulate administrative experience first, so as not to be tricked around in the future. As for where you go, it depends on your own performance.
If your abilities are really not good enough, then you can only go to the African colonies to toss, otherwise, if troubles arise in the country, I will not end well! "Said Ferdinand earnestly
Little Ferdinand rubbed his eyes with an unbelievable look. As for such a fuss?
Even if it's experience, it's okay in China?
Go to Africa, are you sure I am your own son, don’t you want to change to a crown prince?
Of course, he only dared to spit out these words in his heart. If he said them, he would most likely be hit harder.
"Well, my dear father, you must be merciful. You have to know that you are the only lovely eldest son like me. Those little guys are very naughty!" Little Ferdinand thought for a while.
"Well, I will consider this issue carefully. You can rest assured that as a father, the first thing I have to consider is your safety. I will not let you go to death. I don't want white-haired people or black-haired people!"
Ferdinand made another cut, breaking the fantasy of little Ferdinand.
"Dear Father, I want to know if this is my test alone, or my younger brother has to go through this test?" Little Ferdinand asked very seriously
"Don't worry, I have always been a good bowl of water. Since your birth, the education you have received is exactly the same. Therefore, none of you can run in this actual combat training. It's just that they are still young and have to Later than you." Ferdinand replied
"That's good!" Little Ferdinand said happily
It seems to be rejoicing for the five more unlucky ones.
You know, these nobles on the European continent are very strict about the education of the eldest son, and the education of the second son is much more relaxed.
Many aristocratic families are the eldest sons fighting for the family's future ~EbookFREE.me~ and the second son can be a happy rice worm just by sharing a portion of the family property.
It's different when Ferdinand is here. From the beginning, all the sons received the same education. If you want to be a happy rice worm, it is a wrong birth.
When little Ferdinand was secretly happy, Ferdinand added another sentence.
"Although they are treated equally, as the crown prince, my requirement of you is 90 points, and my requirement of them is only 60 points!
Little Ferdinand, you have to go for it. I remember that you have scored several courses, all of which have been broken by your brothers. What is the majesty of your brother in the long run? "
Facing the blow of Ferdinand, Little Ferdinand was already immune. It was unfair to have one enemy and five. Everyone has their own areas of expertise.
In terms of total credits, his boss still maintained the number one position and was not surpassed, otherwise his brother would really lose his authority.
"But, my father, are you sure there is no problem with doing this? I'm getting married soon, don't you want to hug your grandson?" Little Ferdinand asked unwillingly
"This question, I don't think it is a trouble!
With Bulgaria’s current fastest aircraft, it will not take long to travel from Sofia to Africa. I can also equip you with an air division escort.
So you should plan honestly, don't think about these crooked ways!
Remember that you only have one week. If you want to check information, you can find it yourself. Anyway, you can access all the secrets of Bulgaria! "Ferdinand interrupted his last hope
"Well, my dear father, I won't let you down!" Little Ferdinand summoned his courage and said
Quite a bit of a posture of losing and not losing, and the temperament of Ferdinand before crossing, even if he is not straightforward.
