This year’s Christmas is definitely the most comfortable Christmas that the UK has experienced in the past few years. Since the first economic crisis, the former Conservative government was superstitious about the rebound of the economy and failed to cut the bubble in time, which led to the economic collapse. total collapse.

After Lilian came to power, she banned the decision-making parliaments other than the Imperial Federation Parliament and transferred all power to the central government. This led to a serious shortage of government officials. Lilian also made some compromises. Although the Federation Parliament is in the Isle of Man, but federal offices are in Dublin. In just one year, about three million Canadians, Australians, and Indians came to Ireland to work.

Most of them are engaged in administrative positions. To maintain such a huge empire, they must have a huge bureaucracy.

The flow of population drove Ireland's economy, which immediately took off with an unprecedented momentum. It was worthy of being the land of prosperity for the Social Democratic Party.

Of course, Lillian did some incomprehensible things. In order to facilitate management, she drove a large number of black people to the colonies of France and Portugal, and did not allow black people to come to the British mainland. This would make Britain impure.

Lillian seems to have a natural dislike for black people, and she also has a racist side. For several of the more important colonies in Africa, Lillian summoned a large number of Indian soldiers to explore for resources, and encouraged others in the empire to immigrate to Africa. Go there and dig for more riches.

In Lillian's vision, she would first build the British mainland, and then allocate a large amount of resources to India to maintain British control of India. As long as Britain does not lose this jewel in its palm, the British Empire will be able to have almost unlimited possessions. of human resources and resources.

Lillian has also worked hard on the integration of India. The two largest and most powerful religions in India are Islam and Hinduism. The two religions have different doctrines, so they are tit for tat in many places and have deep mutual hostility.

The first thing Lilian had to do was to weaken the influence of the church in India. India is a very magical country. The British could not understand their behavior, and there were abstractions between the lines. Lilian personally came to Delhi, the capital of British India. .

It gives people a feeling of poverty. There is no high-rise building as far as the eye can see. The streets are crowded with impoverished beggars. Lillian is wearing a very Indian-style dress. She is accompanied by many senior SS officers. , which also included Roberts and Cecil.

The British SS expanded to [-] people in August, and about [-] people were sent to India to perform tasks. It can be said that the British came here with a mighty army.

Roberts didn't know much about India, but he was a little surprised when he saw it for the first time. It was almost more barren than Ireland during the Great Famine.

Lillian said, "The purpose of our coming is to solve these problems. We want to completely integrate India."

Compared with other Indian buildings, the Governor's Palace in India really has simple lines and extreme colors, just like a castle. The current Governor-General of India is the Earl of Ripon, a liberal. Lilian has nothing to do with him, although they are not I hate him, but I am opposed to his ideas.

He was also a group of people who supported Indian autonomy. Although Lillian did not remove him from his post, she placed many members of the Social Democratic Party around him to monitor his behavior to prevent him from doing anything too outrageous.

Lillian usually doesn't have a good impression of people who advocate regional autonomy. She doesn't like to let these smug guys be autonomous, because giving power to them will only create some abstract and ruthless work, such as the famous abstract art. Master Nehru.

Lilian never believed that these people who had never received formal government studies could run a country well, so her first step was to educate and build schools.

Education is still the foundation of a country. British education is definitely at the forefront of the times. The first step for the Social Democratic Party after taking power is to reform education. If they want to engrave the concept of imperial federation into everyone's hearts, they have to start from scratch. rise.

Here Lilian still refers to the successful case of August. August’s rule of Japan can be said to be a textbook operation. First, he must obtain the support of the people, and then start from the cultural and economic aspects, integrating culture and Transform it into something like the West, and let people see the hope of life, so that you don't have to worry about the instability of your rule.

However, Japan and India are completely different concepts. Japan is an island country with a small population compared to India. Augustus relied on the military force to successfully control the power of Japan, and passed some bills to improve the living standards of the people. Only then did he gain the support of the Japanese people.

But on the scale of India, if you do things like August, have you considered the feelings of the British financial department?

Lilian's operation is much simpler, that is, the cycle will be very long. It engages in education and infrastructure construction, and uses their taxes to help them build infrastructure. In the end, it is British engineers and Indian workers who get the money. The Indians have to thank us for this. Not earned with blood.

In terms of education, of course, there are also taxes in India. The amount of taxes in India is very huge. Thanks to the British government's sustainability, in just a few years after taking over, taxes have skyrocketed, as if they were on a drug. Lilian felt that this was not good, and immediately it was like cutting taxes in half.

Use the extra money to build schools and engage in patriotic education. As for which country you love, it must be the British Empire. Is it possible that I still love India?

Unemployment benefits were then opened, and Lillian stayed in India for a long time. She arranged jobs and places to live for the poor, and then distributed the extra food from the British Empire to the Indians almost free of charge. This situation immediately spread to the whole country, Lillian His reputation in India is rising.

This year's Christmas can be said to be Lillian's busiest Christmas. She is running around almost every day. August also invited Lillian to Berlin during Christmas. As a result, in order to deal with the affairs in India, Lillian had to Reject August's invitation.

Lilian campaigned for the Social Democratic Party's rule in India, and in just a few months, the situation in Delhi changed.

The Indians have also found the most suitable job for them, which is to work in factories to make screws. This job is considered part of the establishment in India. Lillian has set up a large number of mechanical processing plants in Delhi, and the parts they have processed will be taken To make some industrial machinery, this is completely self-produced and sold, because first of all, India's industrial level is too poor, almost all production is done by manpower, and the error is very large. You will definitely not be able to sell it, you can only use it yourself. .

And Lillian has not set a minimum wage or anything like that, because no matter what, there is still room for wages to fall in India. There are too many people. The average daily wage in India is only one-fifth of that in Japan next door. Around that time, the daily wages were only enough for one day's meals, and they could only eat steamed buns.

This was already considered very high in India. Because there were too many people, Lilian had no choice but to start a rectification movement. In order to limit the population, she abolished polygamy, abolished the caste system, and promoted the idea of ​​freedom and democracy.

So the Indians have something to say, what is freedom and democracy?

Lilian used her actions to tell the Indians what freedom and democracy meant. She threw the once proud Kshatriyas and Brahmins into factories to make screws, or threw them into the streets to sweep the floors, forcing the once privileged class to experience people's lives.

This behavior of course caused dissatisfaction among a large number of adherents of the caste system, especially Hinduism. Their teachings are quite contradictory, requiring both indulgence and abstinence. Lillian could not understand it, but there was no doubt that she became the The enemy of Hinduism, and Hinduism has another enemy, Islam.

The Muslim group of Islam is a pagan that Hindus have always been hostile to, and they have always been subjected to some unreasonable treatment. After hearing about Lilian's deeds, Muslims tried their best to get in touch with Lilian. Lilian is not hostile because of religion. them, while other British colonists would be hostile to them.

For Lillian, religion is just a means. She does not believe in any god, and she can believe in any god. All tools can serve her goals. She has done some research on religion, and she has joined a church, but she has never She has participated in church activities. She does not believe in any God, and she will not let dogma hinder her steps.

Therefore, Lillian accepted the request of the Islamic group and rectified the names of Muslims at the legal level, because all countries in the imperial federation must abide by the Constitution of the British Empire, and there is such an article in the constitution, "Citizens have freedom of religious belief, and no one shall Interfere with their freedom in any way.”

After getting help from Islam, the Hindu ruling class began to incite ethnic conflicts. In the past, the British colonists supported Hinduism because it could help them rule. Now that Britain is on the opposite side of Hinduism, Hindus should also resist.

But they were surprised to find that Hindu believers no longer seemed to listen to the Brahmins.

Lillian organized a large-scale event in Balochistan, Gurg, Delhi and other areas. She organized domestic non-religious people, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, and some Christians, all kinds of Religious believers carried out large-scale relief activities in India under the auspices of Lillian.

Under Lilian's guidance, believers of various religions were moving towards the same goal. When Cecil stood on a high place and looked down, he was deeply shocked. He had a new understanding of Lilian. Fundamental transformation.

Lillian walked at the front of the crowd. She was very approachable. Her approach surprised many people, especially the Hindu ruling class. They did not expect that their followers would actually mix with Muslims and look happy.

During the day's event, an Indian child wearing rags came to the parade. He wanted to get some food. Lillian tried to ask him why he had no family. He replied that it was because his rank was the first. Dhara is the lowest level in the caste system.

Many people have set their sights on Lillian, and they want to see how Lillian will face the people of the lowest caste.

Lillian put two pieces of bread in his hands, then took off the hat on her head and put it on the boy's head. In everyone's surprised eyes, Lillian said what she thought about it. The view of the first class, "There is no difference between you and other people. We also live under the same constitution. You are free..."

This event lasted for many days. Hindu believers began to spontaneously support Lillian. They and Muslims boycotted their masters, who were the former Kshatriyas and Brahmins.

Cecil was very shocked by what he saw. He asked Lillian, "What means did you use to unite so many different people?"

Lillian did not face this problem directly. She replied, "I didn't use any means, and I didn't need to use any means. I just told them that no matter what we believe in, we are all the same. We are all human beings. If we want to To live a happy life, we must let go of our hostility toward others. In fact, when we actually get along with each other, we can actually become companions."

"Just saying that, I still can't understand how it is possible for a bunch of religious fanatics to put down their grudges. How can this kind of thing be solved with just a few words..."

"Yes, the truth is often simpler than imagined. Now you know why you are just a minister, but I can become the prime minister? People can understand each other, and I hate disputes the most. That’s right, wouldn’t it be great if everyone could become friends?” Lilian said with a smile.

Cecil looked away, "Then why don't you try to understand each other with black people?"

Lillian's face immediately darkened, "Kill you, Cecil!"

"Well...it's really hard to understand how a woman thinks."

"I've already done this, haven't I? Cecil! I will do it as long as it can be done, but I don't just represent myself, I have to think about Britain, but in my heart I still hope that the empire can Unified and complete, all my efforts are for this.”

"Yes, everything will follow your wishes, Your Highness Lilian."

When Lillian was in India, she showed the locals and the Governor-General of India what true national integration is. She asked the members of the Social Democratic Party to do one thing, that is, they are not allowed to discriminate against people of different skin colors. Only by eradicating the barriers in their hearts can they Only when people can understand each other can India be truly unified.

Lillian stayed in India for a long time and tried her best to remove all obstacles to the unification of India, such as various local princes. This was also an effort to abolish the caste system.
