Rise of the 1630s South America

Chapter 383 Nationality ([-])

Assimilating and transforming these immigrants with different cultural backgrounds through the crowds of hundreds of people, the achievements so far are actually enough to be proud of.After all, the difficulty of this matter is still too great after all, so let's take things slowly.

After arriving at the location selected in the early stage, several police officers from the Ministry of the Interior gathered the horses together, and then waited for the designers of these architectural schools to start surveying and planning back and forth.A few teenagers approached slowly on horseback in the distance. They were wearing some bulky old military uniforms, many of which had been washed and faded. It seemed that they were mostly passed down to them by their parents.

These teenagers whistled and performed various movements on the horse freely. Even a child who looked less than ten years old could control a pony back and forth and perform various amazing movements.They seem to be the children of herdsmen grazing nearby. As expected, they have been dealing with horses since childhood, and they are already so proficient in riding at a young age.

"Jacobsen, I haven't seen you bastard for a long time. How is old Jacob?" A middle-aged policeman from the Ministry of Internal Affairs asked with a smile after seeing the leading teenager.

"My father is very good, Uncle Yaroslav, he also hunted an ostrich yesterday." The young man was riding a magnificent Turkmen horse, and he seemed to be showing off his riding skills as he was about to charge into the middle of the road. It was only in front of the Nian policeman that he suddenly reined in the reins, and the horse raised its front hooves high and let out a painful neigh.

With a smile on his lips, the middle-aged policeman stepped forward and pulled the boy off. After hitting his ass a few times with a horsewhip, he smiled and cursed: "Your skin is itchy, don't you? Hurry up in junior high school!" You have graduated, have you thought about where to go next?"

"I'm going to Dingyuan Military Academy. Their cavalry instructors have already come to assess me. As long as I get 60 points or more in the next culture test, I can go to the military academy." The boy broke free from Yaroslav's arms He came out, then carefully dusted off the dust on his old military uniform, and said in a proud tone.

The middle-aged policeman smiled and said nothing, but patted the young Jacobson on the back with his right hand, as if full of appreciation for his choice.In fact, in today's East Coast Republic, soldiers and scientists are the two most respected professions.Under the instigation of various propaganda organizations, most young students tend to become honorable soldiers. Of course, some students with excellent academic performance or special talents will also be persuaded by teachers to carry out further studies. , so as to embark on the road of scientists and engineers.As for artists, musicians, etc., is there such a thing on the east coast?

As a middle-level police officer of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the middle-aged policeman knows many unknown things, so his approval actually implies another meaning.That is to say, the mixed descendants of Livonians and Ming people like Jacobson will have a smoother career than pure Ming people or Europeans.And this is exactly the by-product of the mixed-race policy that the people on the east coast are now vigorously promoting.In order to achieve national integration, cultural unification alone is not enough. It is also necessary to vigorously intermarry and mix blood.Because if the appearance of two people is very different, it is equivalent to reminding each other that you are different all the time, which is very detrimental to assimilation.

In view of the cultural background and aesthetic differences of different races, they must give priority to their own race when they get married.Therefore, in order to achieve the goal of mixed-race marriages, the people on the east coast divided the domestic population into three categories from the very beginning: Europeans, Ming people, and natives, and introduced incentive policies to encourage interracial marriages.Later, the cross-travelers discovered that this effect was not particularly obvious. After stabilizing the domestic situation, they introduced a more "strict" secret policy of interracial marriage, that is, restricting the use of interracial marriages for those who refused to engage in interracial marriages, and more opportunities for promotion. It is left to those who respond to the policies of the crossover.

Although this secret policy has never been included in any legal provisions or government documents, Yaroslav, who has been in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for many years, does not think it is a secret.As a middle-level police officer who is trusted by the time-traveling people, his superiors did not hide anything from him, and he himself actually responded to this policy, and he was one of the hard-core followers of the time-traveling people.

Duncan smiled beside him, but didn't speak.Now the new generation on the east bank is gradually growing up. These people have received the nationalism education of the people on the east coast since they were young. They are the most reassuring group of people across the world, and they are also their core base.They have lived in the environment of the east coast since they were young. The prosperity and development of the country and the victory of foreign wars have brought them confidence and bravery.As they represent the future of the East Coast nation, this quality will also be deeply endowed into the national character of the East Coast people.

As the saying goes, what kind of environment gives people what kind of character, this is not true at all.In the past few years since the establishment of the East Coast Republic, it has hardly had a few days of peaceful life. It first fought with the Spaniards, then fought with the British Colonial Company, and then came under the great pressure of the Dutch East India Company. From various publicity channels, we have learned about everything the country is facing, and these have undoubtedly deeply affected the lives of everyone, and have become a major external factor in shaping the national character of the East Coast people.

In fact, I have to thank Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands for this. The huge pressure they exerted on the people on the east coast from the outside world not only did not cause the society of the people on the east coast to collapse.On the contrary, they have a certain identity with the country and a relative aversion to the old continent. Instead, they are more united and loyal to the government of the East Bank Republic, which objectively accelerates the integration of the various ethnic groups on the East Bank.I believe that after the new generation of Dong'an people have fully grown up, after several times of tempering by blood and fire, this quality of loyalty will also be endowed into the national character of the Dong'an people.

The teenagers rode away after playing for a while. Duncan looked at their figures, but there was still a lump in his heart.These teenagers have been exposed to aggressive education such as resistance, fighting, and conquest since they were young. When they grow up, they will inevitably encounter more corruption and colonialism. Under such an environment and education system, Those who have been cultivated are undoubtedly militant terrorists.

For the weak East Coast Republic at this stage, advocating communism seems to be able to inject the genes of expansion into the country and the nation, so that the country can still continue to advance triumphantly and expand its territory in the post-traveler era without becoming mediocre. Lie on the credit book and eat your money in a mediocre way.Moreover, moderate military and national education also greatly contributes to national integration and assimilation, because every foreign war can enhance everyone's national pride, and can enhance everyone's sense of identity with the country and the collective, making the East Coast nation It was formed in the tempering of blood and fire.

But as a person in the 21st century, Duncan certainly knows that everything has two sides. He is also very clear about the consequences of **** developing to the extreme. At that time, the entire country will be kidnapped by soldiers, militaristic, and expanding everywhere. It is really hard to say what the final outcome will be.But the time-travelers are not gods, they can take good care of their own generation, they can't fully predict and control what will happen one or two hundred years later even if they are time-travelers.Since the moderate **** is beneficial to the East Coast Republic at present and for a long time to come—because the general environment is like this, then let’s continue like this, and the executive committee will make amendments based on the actual situation in the future policy decisions.

In fact, Duncan felt a little depressed in his heart.As a general of the civil service faction, it's not that he doesn't want to cool down the current fanatical political atmosphere in the country, but the problem is that he can't do it.Not to mention the increasing influence of military hardliners in the Executive Committee and various government departments, even grassroots power has begun to be seized by them in large quantities.In other words, the military forces now have the broadest public opinion base in the country. To put it bluntly, the entire people of the East Coast Republic are now a bunch of militants. This makes Duncan, who upholds the theory of peaceful rise, very sad.

Forget it, don't talk about these useless things.It is more important to immerse yourself in doing more practical things, and it can be regarded as doing your part for this country.Duncan thought about it, and then started site selection, planning, and design with the intern students, where to build city walls, where to build reservoirs, where to build aqueducts, where to build roads, where to build residential groups, etc., and were very busy.

The first group of North Korean immigrants from the Far East, about 700 people, arrived at Dongfang Port as early as a month ago.According to the plan of the Executive Committee, these people will be assigned to the Cue River and become the first residents of the upcoming Fort Cue.They were assigned here with a large number of Livonians and Poles from Riga.

After two consecutive years of large-scale introduction of European immigrants, the pace of the introduction of people from the east coast in 43 was slightly reduced, except for 44 Livonians, [-] Italians, [-] Poles and [-] Apart from the Nordics, there were only about [-] female slaves from the Balkans purchased from the Ottomans.Coupled with the newly born population, by the beginning of [-], the population of the East Coast Republic of China had reached a scale of more than [-] people, which continued to hit a record high.

It is foreseeable that, with the gradual increase of Far East immigration, the population of the East Coast will continue to grow rapidly.There is everything when there is a population. This creed, which can almost be regarded as a golden rule for people on the east coast, is deeply rooted in everyone's heart.

First occupy the coastal side, develop it, and then use it as a foundation to advance inland.The Duck Lakes region in the north will push inland towards the hills, while the East Shore region in the south will push in the direction of the Rio Negro.Thinking of this grand plan in the future plan, Duncan immediately threw some original worries out of the sky, and he was full of enthusiasm for his career.
