Germanic Empire: please call me William III
Chapter 49
Liu Chuan already had a spectrum in mind about his choice of empress.
Princess Elizabeth Marie of austria-Hungary and Princess Gondrylind of the Kingdom of Bavaria became two alternatives.
“Karl!” Liu Chuan shouted outside.
“Your Majesty, what are your commands?” Carl Jonalet walked in.
“Through secret channels, get a few pictures of Princess Elizabeth Marie of austria-Hungary and Princess Gondrinde of the Kingdom of Bavaria. In addition, secretly send someone to inquire about their private lives. Liu Chuan commanded.
Karl Jonalet was stunned, and immediately understood Liu Chuan’s meaning.
“Your Majesty, I will do it as soon as possible!” Carl Jonalet said.
He knew that His Majesty the Emperor was going to choose an empress.
Liu Chuan knew very well that the royal marriage had no feelings at all. However, feelings can be slowly cultivated after marriage. The so-called first get on the bus and buy a ticket is also very common in this era.
However, Liu Chuan didn’t want his empress to look too ugly, so wouldn’t he be too sorry for himself?
It was hard to become an emperor, if the empress was a dinosaur again, it would be too humiliating, right?
Of course, this is not very likely.
Princesses of various royal families are usually very beautiful. Because through generations of genetic improvement, even the founding emperor and king are not very good. However, after generations of optimization, there are many handsome men and beautiful women in the royal family.
What makes Liu Chuan care more is undoubtedly his private life.
In this era, the private life of the European royal family was very chaotic. He didn’t want his queen to be a watery woman. If you put a few more green hats on him, how can you get it?
What’s more, if even his future son was someone else’s, it is estimated that he would even have the heart to kill.
If there are no such problems, it is naturally the best.
Princess Elizabeth Mary and Princess Gondrynd have their own strengths.
In Liu Chuan’s mind, he was actually more inclined to Princess Elizabeth and Mary.
Princess Elizabeth Mary was the granddaughter of Franz Joseph I and the daughter of his eldest son, Crown Prince Rudolf.
However, Crown Prince Rudolf, because he cheated on his wife, and then because he demanded that both parties end their respective husband and wife relationship, and then after being rejected when they actually came together, he shot and killed his mistress and then committed suicide.
This caused the position of Crown Prince to fall to archduke Ferdinand.
However, Archduke Ferdinand also intermarried because of the nobles, that is, his wife was not a nobleman. Therefore, even if he becomes crown prince, he will inherit the throne in the future. However, his children also have no right to inherit.
Liu Chuan knew very well that Grand Duke Ferdinand was most likely dead before the war broke out. In that case, Princess Elizabeth Andrey would have the right to inherit the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
He could even rely on this to support the merger of the Germanic Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Although the current Austro-Hungarian Empire had many problems, the various states that made up the empire had their own interests and conflicts.
However, one of the main reasons is that the Kingdom of Audili, as the main body of the Empire, does not occupy an absolute dominant position.
Unlike the Germanic Empire, which was also a dual monarchical empire, the Kingdom of Prussia held absolute dominance. Therefore, the Germanic Empire was stable.
But the Austro-Hungarian Empire was completely different, and the Germans did not have a majority in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In addition, the more populous ethnic groups include the Huns and Bohemians.
Coupled with the variety of languages and uneven economic development, the entire Austro-Hungarian Empire was full of contradictions.
If the Germanic Empire were to merge with the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Germans would have an absolute majority in the new Empire. The population of the entire empire will reach 120 million people. Among them, the Germanic people can reach more than 80 million. The other nationalities, on the other hand, consisted of thirty or forty million.
Through the unification of culture and education and language, this will gradually stabilize the new empire.
By then, the population of the new Germanic Empire will exceed 120 million people, and the whole of Europe and even the Western world will be the most populous country after the Tsarist Empire.
The disadvantage of underpopulation will be fundamentally addressed.
In the future, Liu Chuan will lead the new Germanic Empire to dominate Europe and even the world, and the odds will be even greater.
Of course, all this is just Liu Chuan’s idea.
Whether austria-hungary was willing to marry the Germanic empire depended on their own ideas.
Liu Chuan believed that with the alliance between the Germanic Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, it was unlikely that the Austro-Hungarian Empire would reject the marriage.
After all, there were many internal problems in austria-Hungary, and with the support of the Germanic Empire, everything would have been much easier.
The marriage would also make the alliance between the Germanic Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire closer.
