Chapter 145: The Plantagenet Dynasty of the Holy Empire
“Yes!” Instructor Moson’s expression became fanatical inexplicably, and he sighed in a slightly yearning tone: “This occupies almost half of the Norland Continent. The areas are all the territory of a country belonging to the Holy Empire!"
"The Holy Empire is the only empire in this continent and even in the world."
"It owns the Nolan Continent. The largest territory and the most powerful force in the world, even if the vision is not limited to Nolan Continent, but the entire world, the same is true."
"Because when you see this huge area, it is not even. All territory of the Holy Empire"
"In the continent of Terra and the continent of Atrium, the Holy Empire also has its own territory."
"This is the only country whose territory spans three continents," when talking about the Holy Empire, Instructor Moson He became extremely excited and talked more, "Before it, no country could do it. After it. From the current point of view, the Holy Empire is still growing, and it is almost impossible to weaken and collapse."
History tells us that there has never been an empire that did not weaken and fall, and the empire on which the sun never sets also disintegrated.
“The Holy Empire first originated from the union of barbarian tribes,” Teacher Moson said in a measured tone: “Several barbarian tribes walked out of the barbaric land, came to the civilized zone, and then joined forces to occupy An ancient city. "
"From the beginning, as barbarians, they have to face threats from civilized people from all sides, because to 'civilized people', they are foreign invaders."< br>
According to Gaode's understanding, it might be equivalent to the Mongols leaving the grasslands and entering the Central Plains?
“But they were warlike and good at fighting. They fought against all enemies and retaliated. In the end, they won all the battles and established a foothold in the civilized zone.”
“After gaining a foothold. , and then there is continuous expansion.”
“This period of history makes the people of the Holy Empire feel proud from the bottom of their hearts, and it is also enough to bring great reference value to the people of other countries.”
“It is also because of this period of history that the Holy Empire values talent and strength above all else.”
"At the same time, because the barbarian tribes were not good at magic at the beginning, they suffered a lot in the previous battles and sacrificed too many people, so they highly praised and respected the power of magic."
"And they The mind is barbaric and open-minded, never conservative, and allows continuous innovation of magic."
"In the eyes of many people from other countries, the Holy Empire is a bloody and cruel country that is invincible and a war with powerful power. Crazy, because they have never stopped expanding since they came out of the wilderness."
Teacher Moson was spitting, and seemed to be full of identification and even yearning for the Holy Empire?
“As you can see, they have transformed from an ancient city into a powerful empire spanning three continents.”
“But for the people of the Holy Empire, the Empire is the most tolerant and harmonious country.”
“Even many people from other countries agree with this, because the social atmosphere of the Holy Empire is extraordinarily tolerant and is unlike any other country. No country can do that. "
"It respects the talents and strengths of all people, rather than focusing on origin, social position, background or even the motherland.
"There is disdain or hatred. The people of the Holy Empire believe that this is because the Holy Empire is just the lowest barbarian tribe, so naturally it does not value these things."
Speaking of this, Teacher Moson was slightly contemptuous, "I can't do it myself. , then slander him, this is the bad nature of human beings. ”
After expressing his disdain, he continued his lecture: "The people of the Holy Empire respect power above all else, but the power they respect is not just force."
"The expression of power is not limited to force. ”
“Those who show outstanding talents in the fields of politics, magic, creation, and even trade are also respected by the people of the Holy Empire, because these are also forces that can make the Holy Empire stronger.”
"Of course, this is also closely related to the fact that the Holy Empire has been expanding - a country that continues to expand its territory will always be short of people."
"The Holy Empire has been expanding since its establishment. Always fighting. ”
"However, their conquest did not rely entirely on force. As the Holy Empire became more and more powerful, many countries or regions chose to surrender to the Holy Empire."
"This is because they saw that, Joining the Holy Empire will be more stable, safer and even stronger, and this country respects talented people."
"In fact, the Holy Empire has always provided such an option to the countries they want to conquer;
Either swear allegiance to the Holy Empire and judge you solely on your worth, or..."
"Be destroyed"
"Countless examples and long history have shown that this is not an excuse or a trick."
"The people of the Holy Empire keep their word, and many people have indeed had their futures improved after surrendering to the Holy Empire. A great improvement has been made.”
“Of course, all those who disobey the Holy Empire will be crushed without mercy.”
Teacher Moson was already in high spirits when he said this. He waved his hand like a drumstick beating a war drum:
"Anyone, please note, anyone, as long as they are talented, will definitely be reused in the Holy Empire and gain power, Status, respect and wealth! ”
"The Empire is the cradle of talents!"
"In the Empire, no matter what your background is, as long as you have outstanding talents, you can rise to great heights. One of the three giants of the Holy Empire today, the Commander-in-Chief of the Empire Du... Adolf is the best example."
"He was once just a slum orphan who grew up in a port city through deception and abduction. When he was twelve years old, the empire occupied and conquered his port city. ."
"Then, the miracle began."
"His own talent as a mage was discovered by the commander of the newly victorious Imperial Legion, and he was recruited into the army for training. ”
"In this way, in the following years, he followed the empire's legion to participate in countless expansion battles, and his footprints spanned three continents. In the process, he continued to grow and climbed up the military ranks step by step." "In the empire, Under the merit-based system, he eventually became the commander-in-chief of the Empire’s Holy Expeditionary Force from an unknown person.”
“His surname, Adolf, has also become one of the most dazzling surnames in the empire. . ”
“There is no doubt that Du Adolf’s current achievements are closely related to his own talent, but it does not leave the empire’s system.”
“Du Adolf’s miracle lies in addition. It is impossible to appear in any country or region outside the Holy Empire!”
"The empire values talents. In order to recruit more talents, it will even take the initiative to search for talented mages. The search scope is not only within the empire, but also outside the empire."
"They will contact other countries. Outstanding mages, recruit them, train them, let their talents be realized, and use them most efficiently for the empire."
Instructor Moson glanced at the faces of the students below, "That is. Said, if any of you shows outstanding talents, you may receive an invitation from the Holy Empire."
"Of course, their definition of excellence is different from ours," Mentor Moson He spread his hands and calmed down a little, "After all, Sean is just a small principality."
He paused for a moment and took a sip of water. It seemed that his mouth was dry because of the flying saliva just now. .
Later, Teacher Moson's tone returned to calmness and he said slowly: "However, there is nothing new under the sun. Although the Holy Empire has always upheld the political ideal of meritocracy and meritocracy, the older generation of aristocratic families are actually the earliest The barbarian tribes are now called nobles."
"In short, the older generation of nobles still holds considerable power in the heart of the empire."
"Many people. I believe that the biggest obstacle to the continued expansion of the Holy Empire does not come from external enemies, but from the conflict between the old blood and the new blood."
This is an inevitable contradiction in any world or organization under any system. .
After summarizing the problems of the Holy Empire, Teacher Moson snapped his fingers again, and the light representing the territory of the Holy Empire dimmed.
At the southernmost end of the three-dimensional map, the valley plain area facing the sea and with a small part of the boundary adjacent to the Evenraya Mountains suddenly lit up.
Compared to the territory of the Holy Empire, this area is not large, less than a quarter of it.
But Gaode understands that Mawson will put it in the third area of detailed explanation in this lesson, and it will not be easy.
That is indeed the case.
“This area is the territory of the Plantagenet Dynasty.”
"The Plantagenet Dynasty is the last dynasty on the Norland continent."
"This is a powerful and classical dynasty with a glorious heritage and history of outstanding achievements. It still adheres to justice and honor. and the ancient teachings of responsibility."
"They have a long history. Although their territory is not large, their resources are the most abundant in the entire Norland continent."
"Golden Bird. The territory of the Hua Dynasty is full of fertile plains and river valleys, and almost everywhere can be used as cultivated land."
"And more than 90% of the territory has been fully developed, unlike Xi'en, where more than half of the territory is undeveloped. Inhabited dangerous zone ”
"The Plantagenet Dynasty also has the most ideal and standard bay in the entire continent, and has used it to establish the second largest port in the Norland continent."
"In addition, their border is also adjacent to the northern border, whether they are crossing It is very convenient to enter the Northern Territory from the Ervinraya Mountains or by taking the sea route.”
“For the Plantagenet Dynasty, the undeveloped but resource-rich Northern Territory can become a new territory at any time. Their new land, as long as they are ready."
"However, for this dynasty, these are secondary. What is really important is that the Plantagenet Dynasty has the most unique place in the entire material plane. Specialty - Forbidden Magic Stone"
"A magical mineral that can isolate magic power."
"Weapons and armor made of forbidden magic stones are the nemesis of magic."
"With the forbidden magic stones, no matter what, the Plantagenet Dynasty can always stand on the Norland Continent, and this is also the The only country on the continent that can compete with the Holy Empire." Speaking of this, it was obvious that Teacher Moson was a little envious.
“As a self-sufficient ancient dynasty, their rulers and people regard the classical teachings of justice, honor and responsibility as the supreme norms.”
“This is theirs. Their strengths are also their flaws." Gothe noticed that when it came to this, Teacher Moson showed a hint of respect.
Could it be said that the Plantagenet dynasty’s belief in classics was not just a brainwashing declaration made by the rulers, but a belief that was actually followed and implemented?
Gothe couldn't help but think.
“Because they are classical, they are conservative and exclusive. The mages of the Plantagenet Dynasty are proud of their own traditions and heritage, but at the same time they are isolated from the world and have not integrated into the evolving magic trend. They have always inherited ancient magic. "
"Many people believe that the golden age of the Plantagenet Dynasty is over."
"Including me."
"Unless it adapts to the changes of the times."
Teacher Mawson gave his final evaluation of the Plantagenet Dynasty:
“But obviously, for this ancient dynasty, this is an impossible thing.”
