Chapter 1075 Meat Consumption
In this way, Germany must have sufficient strategic determination, and the government must always maintain a clear mind and high efficiency, but Germany under the leadership of Wilhelm II is obviously unlikely to do so Up to this point.
Moreover, even if Germany can maintain its best condition, if it wants to win the final victory, it will also need the support of external conditions, that is, the governments of other countries will degenerate or make mistakes in governance. Assume that Britain, France, and Russia are Austrians. In a country like the Hungarian Empire, that might still be possible.
The reason why the Austro-Hungarian Empire lags behind among the European powers is mainly due to fundamental flaws in the system. As long as there is no unified and powerful government, many beneficial policies will not be fully implemented by the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
And the most fatal thing is that the inefficient government of Austria-Hungary is still Germany's most important ally, which further makes it more difficult for Germany to win the war.
In East Africa, the United States and Germany are completely different. For East Africa and the United States, war is a non-essential option, at least in large-scale decisive battles. The situation in Europe can be said to affect the whole body.
The United States and East Africa have no such worries at all. After all, the United Kingdom cannot allow Canada and the United States to conflict, nor can it allow Egypt or South Africa to attack East Africa.
As regional powers, East Africa and the United States have no powerful forces nearby that can threaten the two countries. If the above incident occurs, the two countries can expand naturally.
It is basically impossible to achieve a peaceful transition of world dominance. If you want to obtain the international market controlled by Britain and France, regional turbulence, war, etc. will inevitably occur.
The geographical advantages of East Africa and the United States allow the two countries to deal with traditional powers such as Britain and France, even if the process is longer.
Even without Germany disrupting the situation in Europe in the previous life, the United States could achieve its goals step by step, but the final effect may not be that ideal.
Of course, the current East African government still has no idea. East Africa and the United States are basically the same on this point. After all, the two countries have a better choice, which is to let Europe cause chaos on its own.

“During the Second Five-Year Plan period, my country’s consumer goods grew at an average annual rate of about 3%, and national living standards improved significantly. In particular, the consumption of light industrial products increased significantly, including home appliances. Consumption is the most prominent. ”
“ Textiles and food consumption have also increased significantly. In food consumption, per capita consumption of meat and dairy products has increased significantly, exceeding the levels of some European countries. Among meat products, pork and beef consumption account for the highest proportion, followed by poultry. Finally, mutton and other consumption.”
As a German country in East Africa, and under the dual influence of immigrants from the Far East Empire, pork has always been a source of meat that is highly accepted by the East African people.
Of course, before the 1990s, pork sales in East Africa were actually far inferior to beef, and pork consumption was limited by output.
This situation reversed after the 1990s, mainly because East African agriculture had matured at that time, and international agricultural product prices, especially grain prices, had been at a low level. In order to consume excess grain, East Africa began to develop large-scale breeding Industry.
Pig farming has begun to rise on a large scale in East Africa. So far, pork has become the largest source of meat for East African citizens.
Of course, this is closely related to the diverse cooking methods of East Africa. The three main source areas of East African immigrants, the German region, the Far Eastern Empire and the Slavic region, all have their own meat processing techniques.
In particular, pork, a meat that is difficult to process, has higher requirements for breeding and cooking skills. As a country of immigrants, East Africa has greatly enriched the methods of meat cooking and preservation.
Sausage, bacon, bacon, braised, stir-fried and other methods, coupled with the promotion of breeding and slaughtering technology in East Africa, pork can be effectively transformed into various delicacies, thus being promoted throughout East Africa. . Of course, pork is very popular in East Africa. In addition to dietary traditions, advances in breeding and slaughtering technology, and diverse cooking methods, it is also related to the local environment and climate of East Africa.
Although East Africa is rich in grassland, the quality of cattle and sheep raised in the grazing industry in East Africa under the tropical grassland climate cannot be compared with other regions. This has also contributed to the increase in pork consumption in East Africa. Conditions are provided.
Not to mention East Africa, even Germany and Denmark, countries with high-quality pasture due to their temperate maritime climate, consume more pork than beef.
Generally speaking, meat consumption in East Africa is developing towards diversification. Although pork and beef currently dominate, the consumption of other meats is also increasing rapidly, especially poultry.
Mutton, camel meat, fish, horse meat, donkey meat and other meat sources are also increasing. Southern East Africa, that is, the South African plateau, is rich in mutton, while camel meat in the northwest Somali region is a source of specialty meat, and horse meat is a source of specialty meat. Meat is relatively niche in East Africa, and fish is also relatively popular in East Africa. However, it is geographically restricted and concentrated on the coast and near lakes and rivers. As for donkey meat, it is a completely new experience for many East Africans, and donkey meat cooking techniques mainly come from the Far East. Imperial North.
“Currently, my country’s meat consumption is developing in a diversified direction, and with the development of animal husbandry and breeding, per capita meat consumption has increased significantly, and national physical fitness has significantly improved. According to the 1909 army recruitment standards , the height alone has increased by two centimeters compared to the 1980s. "
In terms of height, East Africans have not been low from the beginning. Now the average height of East Africans is above the world average. In 1909. In a sample survey, the average height of adult men in East Africa is about 172 cm and that of adult women is 163 cm. This means that the current average height of East Africans is about 167.5 cm.
This level is similar to that of France. The average height of French people is 167 centimeters, that of Germany is 169 centimeters, and that of the Netherlands is 171 centimeters.
And height is obviously directly related to living standards, just like the height of Europeans today is much higher than before.
In the middle of the last century, the average height per capita in the Netherlands and France was only about 165 centimeters, and in Germany it was only about 163 centimeters. According to early per capita height data in East Africa, in the 1970s, the per capita height in East Africa was only about 165 centimeters. Over 160 centimeters, the severely malnourished immigrant population was the main reason for the low per capita height in East Africa at that time.
In just a few decades, the average height per capita in East Africa has increased by nearly ten centimeters, which is an important reflection of the improvement in living standards in East Africa.
The fact that Germany's per capita height is higher than that of France is also related to the rapid development of Germany's economy. In the middle of the last century, Germany was still slightly behind France, but now it is higher than France. It is difficult to explain the problem.
In the middle of the last century, Germany had not yet been unified. Years of war had a huge impact on German production. The German region was the main population outflow area in the world. However, now Germany’s industrial development and political stability have created conditions for agricultural development, so The quality of life of Germans has improved significantly.
The most illustrative thing is actually Russia. Today's Russians are obviously not as tall as the Russians in the previous life. Because of their low living standards, Russian soldiers are almost the shortest among European countries.
The average height of Russian soldiers is only about 165 centimeters. You must know that although the military has relatively loose height restrictions, it can basically reflect the accurate data of the height of healthy men in a country.
And Russia has lower requirements in Poland, Ukraine and other regions. On the contrary, the Baltic Sea part of the country is the highest. The height of Russian soldiers in the European part and the Asian part is in the middle. In this era, Poland and Ukraine can be seen as the relative development of Russia. poor areas.
Although the Asian part of Russia has a small population, this does not mean that their quality of life is poor, especially meat accounts for a relatively high proportion of food. After all, parts of Russia's Asian land are not suitable for agricultural cultivation.
