Chapter 437: Spain's throne battle


The economic crisis broke out, and it was not only the two countries that deteriorated their relations. As the source of this economic crisis, British talent is the most hated.
It's okay to play dumping, the problem is that they dumped to Europe. For international relations in this era, it is enough to look at the European continent, and it is no problem for other countries to ignore it.
Everyone was overcapacity, the British dumping directly triggered the crisis. There is no doubt that governments have shifted responsibility to the British.
In Paris, the patriots took to the streets again. This time is not anti-government, they are calling on the people to boycott British goods and support domestic production.
The same scene is happening in many cities in Europe, and naturally capitalists are pushing it. The British have robbed the market and have threatened their survival.
Governments have indeed increased tariffs, but the goods that have already flowed in cannot be returned? There is no shortage of compradors in any country, and the moral integrity of the people before them is always low.
In the context of the big dumping, British-French relations have deteriorated, British-Australian relations have deteriorated, British-Prussian relations have deteriorated, British-Belgian relations have deteriorated ...
If the British were a continental country, they would have to worry about being beaten by the masses. As a marine empire, however, the Royal Navy was fearless in them.
European countries should stop dreaming, and it is not just these countries that have deteriorated relations. Due to the trade conflict, relations between Austria and Austria deteriorated, relations between France and France deteriorated, relations between France and Austria deteriorated, and relations between Russia and Austria deteriorated ...
To put it simply: In order to save ourselves, everyone's relationship is bad.
You dump to me, I can dump to you, everyone hurts each other. Many conflicts are provoked by capitalists for their benefit, and they are out of control.
In the face of the crisis, only the fastest responding companies can escape the calamity, realise inventory in the shortest time, and reduce production capacity in a timely manner. Unresponsive companies have to rely on their strength.
To survive the economic crisis, the most commonly used method is war. War can consume excess supplies and plunder wealth and markets.
As a result, many nations have suffered no delusion.
The French launched the Egyptian, Malian, and Algerian wars; while the British launched the Ethiopian war, they also launched a war against Tunisia.
This is directly related to the rapid deterioration of relations between Britain and France. They don't give face to each other anymore, they just do it.
According to the common international practice of this era, whoever grabs it belongs to whom. Before the actual occupation, all countries have the opportunity.
Austria has not been idle, lit the war on the African continent, and Botswana, Tanzania, Kenya and other regions have become battlefields.
The atmosphere in the Middle East was also tense, and Franz was still hesitating to launch an attack on the Arabian Peninsula. If the economic situation continues to deteriorate, it is certain that the Ottoman Empire will be unlucky again.
Relations between the European continent are tense, the African continent is fighting fiercely, and Asia is not peaceful. Relations between the four countries in Central Asia suddenly became tense, and uneven distribution of stolen goods led to the breakdown of this fragile alliance.
There is no doubt that the British are indispensable. The four Central Asian countries have restrained each other, and their mediation in the middle will help them obtain the maximum benefits.
In order to get rid of the economic crisis, European countries have also stepped up their invasion of Japan, the Indochina Peninsula, and other countries. Among them, the Kingdom of Prussia and the Federal Republic of Germany have performed extremely well.
The Phnom Penh dynasty was destroyed by the Prussians, the Malay Peninsula was occupied by the German Federation, and it fought against the Thai army.
The Americas region is relatively peaceful, and has generally remained stable. However, the Mexican civil war continues, and it has become an indisputable fact that the rebels have grown larger. Massimiliano I had written several times to complain to Franz about the problem.
...
Spain has not escaped the impact of the economic crisis. Due to the deteriorating domestic economy, the Spanish government's delay in arrears has led to strong military dissatisfaction.
In September 1868, a special group of mysterious guests ushered in the Cadiz military camp in Spain. They turned into grooms who transported logistic supplies and entered the barracks.
"General Prim, Isabel the witch knew all day that she and her male pet were sexually immoral, and Ren Renwei made a mess in China.
For the future of Spain, we can't let her continue with her will. Otherwise, the great Spain will be destroyed by her. "
Talking about the Spanish domestic radical "Iraq" representing Burjos, the purpose of this secret entry into the barracks was to say that the military young man, General Prim, launched an armed uprising and overthrew the rule of Queen Isabel II.
Although the adjective crossed a little bit, Queen Isabel II was indeed not a good monarch, and her bad private life was even more notorious.
In this era, if conducted a world fainting king ranking, Queen Isabel II is definitely among the best, known as: the most unpopular queen in Europe.
Not only is the reputation of the people not good, it is also notorious among the nobility. The monarchy was even more crowded out, especially when several other queens in Europe saw her very unhappy.
In short, she not only lowered the average IQ of the monarch, but also lowered the overall image of the queen.
The military's dissatisfaction with Isabel II also has a long history. General Prim is the representative of the military and is responsible for this secret negotiation.
The location of the negotiations in the barracks is enough to illustrate many issues.
Primm didn't meander, and asked directly: "Who will become the King of Spain after the overthrow of Isabel II?"
As a nobleman, Prim was a born royalist. Like most countries, the Spanish army is also a stronghold of the nobility, and is also the force of royalists.
The radical group represented by Burgos is actually part of the constitutional monarchy, otherwise they have no basis for unity.
If the Republicans were changed, General Prim would not speak so well, and he ordered the arrests to be normal operations.
"His Excellency, we agree with your last proposal that a prince from the Hohenzollern dynasty assume the throne of Spain."
The issue of the throne has always been the focus of disputes between the two sides. After solving this problem, the rest is easy to handle.
The military's main reason for supporting the Hohenzollern dynasty was to expand its power. The treatment of Juncker aristocrats, no one does not mind, now the opportunity comes, they will not miss it.
Spain wants a constitutional monarchy and the king's rights are suppressed. It doesn't matter who the king is, the radicals compromised.
Of course, the prince of the Hohenzollern dynasty as the king has political implications, which means that the military's strength will be expanded.
This is one of the foundations of cooperation between the two sides. After the overthrow of Queen Isabel II, radicals can take control of the new government, and the military will naturally benefit.
Without enough interest, no one would do the killing. Expanding the military's rights is what they pay for participating in the uprising.
Everyone knows the aftermath of the expansion of military power, and the radicals are no exception. At first they opposed it.
However, the plan could not keep up with the changes, and as the domestic economy deteriorated, their back-end supporters reached the limit of the tolerance of Queen Isabel II.
It is impossible for any group to disengage from its supporters, or it will be unrooted. "Ira" was no exception, and under pressure from supporters they decided to compromise with the military.
No way, the Revolutionary Party's rebellion failed so many times, they also learned a lesson from it, knowing that without the support of the military, the uprising would not be successful.
After getting the desired answer, Primm smiled with satisfaction. The negotiations that followed were smooth sailing, and the two parties reached an agreement soon.
This is the well-known "September League" in the history of the Spanish Revolution. The military outfits and domestic political radicals have allied. Everyone decided to join forces to overthrow the rule of Queen Isabel II.
The Spanish people, Isabel II, have been around for a long time. Naturally, the uprising will soon come to an end.
On September 17, 1868, Francisco-Serralau led Cadiz's army to launch an armed uprising.
The tide of uprising was ignited, many in Spain became raging, and ordinary people, nobles, capitalists, the military and other classes of Spain demanded that Queen Isabel II abdicate.
Seeing the situation out of control, the panic Queen Isabel II appointed the Marquis of Jose to lead the army to chaos. No accident, Queen Isabel has always paid the price.
Government forces were defeated by the rebels, and the insurgents led by Francisco Serraro headed straight for Madrid. On September 28, Isabel II, who had gone by the way, went into exile in France.
The sudden Spanish revolution disrupted the deployment of European countries. "Revolution" is a topic that all governments are afraid of. In order to avoid the spread of the revolution, everyone is paying close attention to the situation in Spain.
Franz was no exception. He held high-level meetings as soon as the Spanish Revolution broke out.
Although Spain has fallen in recent years, but the hundred-footed insects have died and not stiffened, they are still one of the great powers.
For Austria, the existence of a stable and capable Spain can restrain part of the French's energy and ease the pressure on the defense of the western front.
The Vienna government has repeatedly drawn on Spain in an attempt to build an alliance against the common enemy, France.
However, the mud was always unable to help the wall, and after many attempts, Franz died. Seeing that Spain could not help it, the Vienna government turned to an alliance with the French.
Having learned from his failures, Franz did not have much confidence in the new Spanish revolutionary regime.
No way, this Spanish revolution is more a coup than a revolution.
The traditional interest class has not been broken, and the insurgents who initiated this uprising are the vested interests. They are only dissatisfied with Isabel II's policies that have harmed their own interests.
In simple terms, Isabel II was reformed.
The reform is reformed, and under normal circumstances, nobles will not easily rebel. It was Isabel II's reform policy that offended all parties.
It just happened to meet the economic crisis and the domestic contradictions intensified. When it was necessary to vent, it created conditions for the uprising.
Now just overthrowing a queen, and her corrupt government, and replacing it with a new government, essentially Spain has not changed.
Foreign Minister Weissenberg analyzed: "Isabel II's reputation in Spain is so bad that it is impossible to restore it.
If the French are willing to support, crowding her son Prince Alfonso to succeed, there is still a possibility.
However, Prince Alfonso is too young to be able to cope with the current situation. It is impossible for all parties to let Isabel II regent, which can basically be ruled out.
There are many subsequent candidates. After excluding the Bourbon dynasty, the support rate is relatively high: Prince Leopoldo of the Hohenzollern dynasty. He received the support of the Spanish military, but Napoleon III should object.
There is also the brother-in-law of Prince Isabel II, Duke Monte Punchel, but he killed Prince Enrique in a duel, and it was very difficult to succeed.
Secondly, Fernando, former regent of Portugal, is said to have received information that Fernando was not interested in the Spanish throne.
The remaining candidates, including the former Sardinian royal family, the Orleans dynasty, and several princes in our country, are not very popular. It was still difficult to determine who ended up in the end. "
After that, Weissenberg looked at Franz stunned, and it seemed that he was worried that the emperor would force Habsburg's prince to succeed.
Had it not been for the rules of the ancestors that made Austria lose its right to inherit Spain's throne, the current support for the Hapsburg family would certainly not be low.
Unfortunately, the rules laid down by Charles V caused the Habsburg dynasty to lose the right to inherit the Spanish throne, which became the biggest obstacle to the re-entry of the Habsburg dynasty to Spain.
The legal basis is not enough, and European countries are destined to oppose it. Franz naturally cannot go against the trend.
The princes of the Habsburg dynasty who can appear on the list of candidates are people who give face.
"It is not necessary to consider the domestic princes. When the Habsburg dynasty split, it was agreed that the Austrian and Spanish branches did not inherit each other's rights.
The Habsburgs in Spain's veins are already extinct. Otherwise, the throne will not pass the Bourbon dynasty, and Spain will not fall into the current situation. "
After speaking, Franz sighed, this opportunity had to be missed.
