Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne Chapter 227

"Opening 1861: I just inherited the Dutch throne (

March 2, 1866.

With the mediation of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Tsarist Russia and AustriHungary signed the "Amsterdam Agreement".

In this evil agreement, the Tsarist Russian Empire returned the eastern part of Galicia to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but in order to compensate the Tsarist Russia, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was willing to divide the overseas colony of Nigeria into two parts, including Benin, Abuja, and Kano. Assigned to the Russian Empire.

And because Benin was occupied by Austria at the beginning, it is connected with Ghana and southern Burkina Faso, the original African colonies of the Russian Empire.

With the announcement of this agreement, European countries have expressed different opinions. Among them, Sweden has expressed concern because in this way, Sweden's colony of Togo and some of Burkina Faso's colonies have gone out of the sea in the Gulf of Guinea and landed on land. Three sides were occupied by the Russian Empire.

This is really sandwiched.

Inside the Royal Palace of the Netherlands.

"Many people believe in the principle of not asking for others throughout their lives. This approach rejects not only the direct gift of the other party, but also misses the influence of the gift on others."

William IV to the pressure Queen Sandra.

"So the Netherlands has been making good friends recently, but the benefits they should take are not lenient?"

The pressure Queen Sandra teased the little prince Albert, who was only more than 3 months old, and raised her head to ask William IV.

"Yes, the biggest unexplored resource in the world is no longer in the Far East, nor in the Americas, or even under the ground in Africa, but in millions of unattended hearts.

The greatest sin of a general manager running for prime minister of the Netherlands is to leave a potential would-be good deed with little to do and leave the campaign headquarters in despair. "

William IV said loudly: "Let your career be the hope of others, and that hope will become an asset on their account, that is, your chance of success. The more they invest in you, the more likely it will be once. Keep throwing it again"

Queen Alexandra thought for a long time, just finished breastfeeding Prince Albert. Taking a cover up made William IV look straight.

The pressure Queen Sandra saw this in her eyes, but did not reveal it, and said: "Just like the International Women's Alliance that Your Majesty asked me to organize this time, I will apologise to all women in the world who face unequal power, and then make them full of hope. , and hope is pinned on our alliance, but the women's alliance has no right to promote this hope."

"No no no, although no country will not cooperate, but Alexandra, we just need to give them hope, keep updating new hope, and increase the welfare and people of your female compatriots, then we can let them They continue to support your organization."

When William IV said this, he saw that Queen Alexandra's face changed slightly. He knew that although this answer stung her heart, who was also a woman, this was the reality. Even in the 21st century, gender inequality is still serious. , It was difficult to adjust for a while, and this "career" can make the Netherlands Kingdom of the Netherlands eat for a hundred or two hundred years. Thinking of this, he followed and comforted her: "Everything needs to be done step by step, it can't be done in one step, many people are poor. I can't even eat, let alone anything else"

The pressure Queen Sandra heard this, but she was relieved.

Yes, if you don't care about food and clothing, how can you still have the energy to care about other things?

William IV followed up: "Because of this, I am going to ask Meder to establish an organization called the International Red Cross to save lives around the world and reduce the lives of wars in countries around the world."

"Made is not the deputy director of the Netherlands International Intelligence Organization? Will that be the case?" Queen Sandra was hesitant to speak.

William IV smiled and said: "How can there be such a good thing in the world, the Netherlands has paid a lot of money, and naturally it needs to be repaid. Madd has been the deputy director of international intelligence in the Netherlands for many years and is familiar with international intelligence affairs. Having him take the job is professional, and it can bring more intelligence information to the Netherlands, which is a double-edged sword.”

William IV stepped forward to embrace Queen Alexandra and said, "My queen, Holland will never do business at a loss, right?"

The two couples were in the palace and decided on an international organization with great influence in the future world.

What William IV wanted was to see, relying on the recent trend that the Netherlands has become the focus of international attention, especially with the positive reviews, continue to push the Kingdom of the Netherlands higher.

March 5, 1866.

Governments of various countries have successively received invitations from the Dutch government. The Netherlands is preparing to establish a new international organization in the southern city of Rotterdam, called the International Red Cross, to invite all countries to join.

The terms and conditions are noted in it.

Among them, visiting detainees, organizing rescue operations, reuniting separated families and carrying out similar humanitarian activities during armed conflict, and providing assistance to victims.

Queen Victoria and Viscount Palmerston looked at each other, and both saw the doubts in each other's eyes.

"The more elusive William IV became, there was the International Union of Women, with his queen pressing Queen Sandra as director general.

In order to save face, all countries sent representatives to participate. In less than a month, the Netherlands did not stop again.

Now I have another organization of the International Red Cross, and when I read the rules and regulations above, I was moved. I wanted to sign up. Your Excellency Prime Minister, you said, how should we deal with the disorderly and opaque play style of the Netherlands? "

Queen Victoria laughed to herself.

Viscount Palmerston sighed: "I have to admit that William IV is getting more and more sophisticated. If there are traces of her actions in the past, then these actions of his now are incomprehensible. , Your Majesty, these actions of the Netherlands~www.mtlnovel.com~ For the time being, no matter what William IV thinks, we must all take it."

Queen Victoria was taken aback, "Why?"

Viscount Palmerston sighed: "Because, there are also groups in the UK that need this organization"

When Queen Victoria heard this, she came to her senses and smiled bitterly: "That's true, William IV has a good plan. This is forcing us to join."

"It's impossible without the suffering people, and it's impossible without people who don't hide their living environment. The International Red Cross? It opened a door."

"Can't we build one on our own? So as not to be subject to Holland" Queen Victoria asked.

Viscount Palmerston immediately rejected it, saying, "Even if the United Kingdom established itself, what if other countries joined?"

Before waiting for Queen Victoria to answer, he continued: "A big country is easily scrutinized by other countries. Let's not talk about other countries. If the United Kingdom is established, will Prussia, France, Tsarist Russia and other countries join?"

Queen Victoria: "Yeah, the Netherlands is not a big country, and its location is crucial, but it can be considered a convincing."

The International Red Cross will make the United Kingdom and other big countries distressed, and when they are still hesitating whether to join or not, other small countries have no such scruples. Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, Greece, and the Commonwealth of America are the first to choose to join. After that, Spain, the Confederate States of Millikin, Portugal, and Italy also successively submitted applications to the Rotterdam headquarters in the Netherlands.

This was accomplished in a short period of March 10, 1866. While Britain, Prussia, Austro-Hungary, Tsarist Russia, and the Ottoman Empire of France were still struggling, the next wave of joining upsurges made them no longer calm.
