African Entrepreneurship Record

As a mixed-race country, East Africa will face an embarrassing problem in the future, that is, it has no historical and cultural heritage.

Historical and cultural heritage is actually very important, such as the East Asian cultural circle, the Arab cultural circle, the Turkic cultural circle, etc., which represent influence and political interests, and these are all connected through historical and cultural attributes.

So how should the cultural roots of East Africa be positioned in the future? Can we only turn to Germany or the Far East in terms of history and culture? This was certainly not what Ernst wanted.

East Africa has its own interests and will have its own values ​​and core interests in the future. Ernst does have special feelings for Germany and the Far East, but East Africa is actually independent from these two civilizations.

As the saying goes, a single tree cannot make a forest. If East Africa wants to expand its historical and cultural influence, it cannot be dominated by the two cultures of Germany and the Far East. So now it should take the initiative to expand cultural areas with the same attributes as East Africa.

In Ernst's opinion, Bosnia and Lanfang Republic are two good experimental zones. If these two areas are transformed into similar population and cultural attributes to East Africa, then in the future they will naturally be emotionally biased towards East Africa.

For example, the current Lanfang Republic is a purely Chinese country. Its culture and emotions must be biased towards the Far East, rather than East Africa, which is half German and Chinese. However, if East Africa changes the population attributes of the Lanfang Republic to be the same as its own, then Lanfang will be the same in the future. The Republic will inevitably fall to East Africa.

East Africa has always regarded the direction of the Indian Ocean as its core maritime interest in the future, of which the South Ocean is the focus. And what can threaten this core interest, according to previous history, the Far East is likely to be East Africa's competitor or challenger in the future. This is the United States. Deep experience with the UK.

In the same way, the German region, including Germany and Austria, and East Africa also attach great importance to it, especially now. It is very important for East Africa to have two big brothers in front, but the importance of East Africa to these two countries is not very obvious. .

In the eyes of the two countries, East Africa's status is the same as the British's view of Canada and Australia. They really think they are worthy of being compared with the locals!

Therefore, Ernst's attempt to mix water with Bosnia had a very important purpose, which was to plant a mine within the sphere of influence of the Austro-Hungarian Empire (Bosnia was not yet part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire's territory). This mine was a mixed race. If in the future If the Austro-Hungarian Empire had no idea about Bosnia, this mine would never be effective. On the contrary, the Austro-Hungarian Empire would have leverage in East Africa.

Even if the Austro-Hungarian Empire really does not accept the sugar-coated bullet of Bosnia, East Africa has planted a nail in the Balkans. The importance of the Balkan Peninsula is self-evident, and it is beneficial to East Africa no matter what.

Bosnia and the Republic of Lanfang are just the first steps in East Africa. More areas will be transformed by East Africa in the future. Of course, the premise is that they first pass the British and French hurdles.

…

Maputo.

The Portuguese watched the French's training results with great interest. They saw a hundred black people squatting on the ground in the open space with their heads in their hands, their upper body clothes stripped off.

Bang... Bang... Bang...

At the Maputo training ground, French instructor Wilson whipped the disobedient African soldiers hard with a pointer. The merciless whipping caused bloody marks to appear on the exposed backs of these black men.

"Damn it, do niggas like us really need to be nannies to learn to obey orders? We can't even learn the simplest thing of staying in formation."

Wilson was going crazy. The result of two months of training was that he completely collapsed. At the beginning, Wilson could be said to be full of confidence. As an excellent French instructor, he had led many thorns and idiots in France. No matter how difficult France was to deal with, he was going crazy. The soldiers, who have been in his hands for less than a month, are all excellent warriors.

Then he was sent to Mozambique. According to Wilson's idea, black people are also human beings. No matter how bad they are, they can never be worse than the mules in the army.

Three days later, Wilson discovered that he had thought wrong. A week later, Wilson discovered that he might have taken over an incredible task. A month later, Wilson lay down and no longer pursued the goal of moving these blacks toward the French army. Now Wilson It completely collapsed.

The French instructors were quite angry about training black people, because the cultural level of black people was so low that they could not do simple training, not to mention complicated training.

However, the French instructors are still too careless. This is a practical problem faced by many armies in backward areas. Of course, we have to admit that the African natives are a little too backward.

For black soldiers in tribal civilization, because of the degree of civilization development and even the language that is not mature, many basic concepts that are normal in the eyes of later generations do not exist.

It can be said that the organizational ability is basically non-existent. Of course, Ernst has to be fair. This does not blame the black people, but the French instructors went in the wrong direction. In fact, black people can also cooperate in fighting, especially the cooperation of a small number of people. The specific performance Just for hunting, a few black people with primitive bows, arrows and spears can leave an everlasting shadow on the animals on the grassland.

As for the slightly larger number of people, black people are really not good at it, because in this era, it is normal for many black tribes to have more than a dozen people. The reason for the low productivity level is that there are only so many people that can be supported in an area, and black people will be like lions according to the number of prey. Self-divided, the vast majority of black people do not know how to farm and have not developed nomadic attributes.

Therefore, black people can develop primitive state power, which is considered a top civilized country in Africa, representing advanced productivity. However, these primitive countries are actually not large in scale. At most, they can be regarded as super large tribes. Many countries have core areas. It may only be a city or a village. As for the large area on the map, it is just a virtual mark. Many independent small tribes are included. From Ernst's perspective, these black civilizations stopped thousands of years ago. , the level of the Yanhuang tribe in the Far East.

The Yanhuang tribe is a tribal alliance. The Yanhuang tribe is equivalent to the overlord of the tribe, but the tribes below can still be regarded as independent units. Those countries in Africa actually play the role of tribal overlords. In fact, the tribal overlords promote them. They Many of them do not have that appeal. At most, they can say that their ability to resist risks is stronger than that of ordinary tribes.

When the East African Army was still a colonial army, mercenaries and commanders at the Hechingen Military Academy also had a headache for the new army formed by immigrants.

It is normal for many people to be unable to tell the difference between left and right, and they do not have a clear sense of direction. But strangely enough, many people are not sensitive to the left and right directions, but they can clearly distinguish between southeast, northwest and northwest.

Compared with the French's expectations for the black troops, East Africa does not have such high requirements for the black troops. After all, many East African natives were people who could not be taught by the instructors in the Far East in the previous life. Ernst did not believe that the East African Army had this ability. The black regiments were trained into regular troops.

However, black people are not all the losers faced by the French and East Africans. In fact, the black people in Abyssinia and North Africa are very capable of fighting, so much so that both the Arab Empire and Europe incorporated black people from North Africa into the army. Abyssinia, the former overlord of the Red Sea, fought a thousand-year war with the Arabs. In the past, Nubia in the Sudan also counterattacked Egypt, so the competitive atmosphere was conducive to the development of civilization.

In order for these black people to quickly develop combat effectiveness, the education model in East Africa is very simple. They will fill the ammunition, pull the trigger, and accept instructions to move forward and retreat. As for ugly running, ugly movements, and inaccurate aiming, it is not a problem.
