Chapter 72： The Global Shock of Trading Alaska
"This person should not be underestimated. I told Washburn that although I would love to see an Irish-American president appear in the United States.
But I reckon that Seward, who is of English descent, may be a hindrance to the election of a president of Irish descent.
Therefore, Holland felt that Seward could be more low-key. "
William Henry Seward, who was governor of New York in 1839, was appointed Secretary of State by Lincoln last year.
In the original world, in the civil war between the North and the South in 1861, the kings sent troops to split the United States after they left. President Lincoln wanted the Tsarist Russia of the national empire, so he sent someone to ask for help from the Tsarist Russian Empire IG. In the end, the Tsarist Russia agreed, Britain, France and the West retreated, and finally the United States gave A reward of 7.2 million was given to the Russian Empire.
This life was completed by Washburn.
From this perspective, William IV can see how long-term this Seward's vision is and how perfect his strategic plan is. Just like Hawaii, he vigorously promoted the strategy of capturing Hawaii when he was in charge of the U.S. State Department, and developed the U.S. On the west coast, this is a kind of advance deployment of the people of this world. For such a character, William IV felt a little dangerous.
Such a U.S. statesman with a long-term vision, who is still in power, is very dangerous for the Netherlands, especially when the Netherlands has a hand in the Americas and Hawaii.
Therefore, William IV didn't think there was anything wrong with suppressing the other party now. Instead, if he had started the evening class a few years earlier, he would have saved a lot of energy.
"Since the United States has so much nonsense, why doesn't the Netherlands give them more opportunities to talk nonsense?"
Seeing everyone looking over, William IV said with a gloomy smile, "Isn't the United States always advertised as the ruler of the American continent?
Has it always been claimed that European countries will not interfere in American affairs?
Since they think that the Netherlands owns Suriname and Guyana, it is not enough to be regarded as an American country.
If that's the case, then the Netherlands will truly become an American country!
With the crown seat of Alaska, one of North America's closest territories to the United States, I see what the United States has to prevent us from meddling in American affairs."
When the members of the Privy Council heard the words, they all showed a burst of laughter.
Because, just last week, they received the Tsarist Empire's agreement to agree to the Alaska transaction agreement between the Netherlands and the Tsarist Empire. Even Alexander II had signed the contract on it, and this agreement had reached the palm of William IV of Amsterdam.
Yes, the United States has never allowed Europe to intervene there. It believes that the Monroe Doctrine is the legal basis to prevent European countries from intervening.
Now that the Netherlands is about to enter North America and become an American country, the United States, what reason is there to stop the Netherlands from intervening?
Thinking about it, it's ridiculous!
......
As a small fleet of battleships formed a mighty fleet, it started from Pearl Harbor, the Hawaiian Islands newly occupied by the Netherlands, all the way north.
After several days of sailing at sea, on the last day of the month on February 28, 1862, I finally arrived at the Alaska Peninsula managed by Tsarist Russia. "The land of Alaska was sung, and Alaska was merged into the Netherlands, and it was finally completed without any suspense.
On March 1, a group of news appeared, which attracted the attention of the whole world.
The news was reported by the European Times.
The content is: Tsarist Russia and the Netherlands held a press conference to announce the incident, and even the time and place were very clearly explained.
All the world, including the most powerful country in the Americas, the United States, are paying attention to this matter on this day.
"It was signed by William IV of the Netherlands and Emperor Alexander II of Russia.
The Kingdom of the Netherlands reached a deal with the North Kalimantan Province of Kalimantan Island in the west of the Pacific Ocean at a price of 1.5 million pounds, and reached a deal with the Russian Empire to trade the Alaska Peninsula and Alexander Islands on the eastern border of the Russian Empire.
The report introduced that Alaska has a land area of 1.48 million square kilometers and an ocean area of 230,000 nautical miles.
The newspaper also claimed that this was the largest land transaction in the world since ancient times, and the average unit price per acre was only 0.5 cents (£). "
As soon as this news came out, all the sensations in the world, and even the sensational effects, far surpassed the civil war in the United States and the Belgian election, which was the most eye-catching in Europe. These two major news that have been occupying for many days suddenly became eclipsed.
For a time, it dominated the front pages of newspapers all over the world and people's hot news.
"The largest land transaction in the history of the world?"
"Le Figaro" is a Prussian newspaper that was founded in 1760 for hundreds of years. It is the oldest newspaper in Prussia. Its influence covers the entire North German Confederation except for Prussia.
This was its headline on the front page of March 2, 1862.
"For the merits of William IV, no one except the Dutch has the right to judge, because they are the direct beneficiaries and victims.
The Netherlands has exchanged 1.5 million pounds and a Pacific territory no smaller than the Netherlands for a piece of extremely cold barren land. Many people are very puzzled. The Netherlands is so optimistic about it?
Regarding this transaction, after a detailed investigation by this newspaper, the final conclusion is that most people in the Netherlands believe in the decision of King William IV of the Netherlands and the Dutch government.
Because the improvement of their lives in recent years has brought earth-shaking changes to them.
Even this newspaper is a little confused that the people of this country actually have as high as 70% of the people's trust in the government and 80% of the royal family led by William IV in a survey that was randomly selected by this newspaper. It is the highest level of trust, which is called horror.
To this end, this newspaper once again launched an investigation into the reasons, and finally found that the reason why William IV has such a high degree of trust is that he began to participate in politics during his tenure as the crown prince, and supported various policies issued, which made him The Dutch reaped tangible benefits.
In particular, employment, etc. In the past few years, the economic development of the Netherlands has been obvious to all, which has made the lives of the Dutch people better. At the same time, the growth of national strength has also increased the national pride. In this way, the support level is naturally overwhelming.
The Dutch mainland is only 50,000 square kilometers, but he has the Dutch East Indies overseas. The Dutch native donates blood continuously for local development, and Guyana in South America has established the status of Holland America as a participant.
Now coupled with the emergence of such a huge territory in North America, although it is separated from the Canadian territory ruled by the British Empire, the Monroe Doctrine of the United States was originally uneasy because of the British presence in North America, and it is difficult to implement, and now it has increased. A seemingly not a big country, but in fact the Netherlands is considered a top military force to participate in the competition in the Americas.
No matter how you look at it, it seems that the United States can no longer maintain the Monroe Doctrine.
At the same time, this newspaper, like all other Europeans who are dissatisfied with the U.S.'s delusional occupation of the Americas, expect the Netherlands to play a more important role in the Americas.
The newspaper finally asked a question weakly: Is the Netherlands under your leadership, William IV, ready to challenge the American status of the United States? "
......
"His Majesty William IV and Tsar Alexander II secretly completed such a major transaction this time. It has to be said that it has created a precedent for the fastest transaction in the world's trading territorial area.
However, the Monroe Doctrine of the United States has always been adhered to. Now the Civil War has depleted their country’s national strength. Even last month, they asked the Russian Empire for help, and by the way, the Netherlands was completed. England, Spain, and France.
If any statement of condemnation issued by the United States at this time will arouse the dissatisfaction of the two 'saviors' of the United States, the consequences are likely to be unbearable for the United States. I am very curious about what kind of recruiting, and I am looking forward to it. "
In addition to reporting on Spain's largest newspaper, The Spanish Herald, it did not forget to provoke relations between the United States, the Russian Empire and the Netherlands.
reason?
It was because the Netherlands and the Tsarist Russian Empire participated in North America last month, which caused Spain's humiliation and huge losses. The fuel costs for Spain to drive warships there were also huge losses. Therefore, Spain Naturally, there is no hidden ill will towards these three countries.
However, compared to Spain's provocation, the newspapers of the Tsarist Russian Empire on the side of interest this time are much more moderate.
"Voice of Tsarist Russia" is the closest newspaper to the Tsarist Russian Empire. Its sources or channels are the most representative. At the same time, in terms of viewpoints, it is also what the official wants to say, and even sometimes Tsarist Russian officials Send official news directly on itNorth Kalimantan, Kalimantan Island! "
This is the striking theme of the newspaper "Voice of Tsarist Russia".
"On February 27, 1862, the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of the Netherlands completed an agreement on territorial conversion. The Russian Empire would trade all parts of the Americas east of the Bering Strait in the Far East to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, including The Alaska Peninsula and the Alexander Islands are roughly the size of the entire German Confederation.
Of course, that's because the area is cold and barren, but such a huge exchange of areas has never happened before in human history.
The friendship between the Netherlands and the Russian Empire has been developing for more than 300 years. The two countries are in the spirit of sincere transactions and contracts. The 150 pounds of the Netherlands also proves that the two countries are the most lasting and best model of partnership in Europe.
The agreement has been passed by the parliaments of the two countries, and the military rotation between the two countries will begin on the last day of February.
Due to the fact that the population of the Russian Empire in Alaska is only a few thousand people, according to the agreement between the two countries, all the Russian citizens will be evacuated within a month. At that time, the Russian Empire will completely cede the sovereignty of Alaska.
In addition to the 1.5 million pounds, the Tsarist Empire obtained a historic piece of territory in the tropical Pacific Ocean, where both sides are facing the sea, which will become a breakthrough for the Tsarist Empire in the Pacific Ocean and the global ocean. point.
The Tsarist Russian Empire, from now on, will get a seaport in the Pacific Ocean that can partner with Vladivostok.
Some experts predict that as Russia settles on Kalimantan Island in the Far East, the pattern of the four powers of Great Britain, France, Spain, and the Netherlands may change. "
