Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III

Liu Chuan already had a score in his heart for his queen candidate.

Princess Elisabeth Marie of Austria-Hungary and Princess Gondelinde of the Kingdom of Bavaria became two alternatives.

“Carl!” Liu Chuan shouted outside.

“Your Majesty, what are your orders?” Carl Jonalet walked in.

“Through secret channels, get a few pictures of Princess Elisabeth Marie of Austria-Hungary and Princess Gondelinde of the Kingdom of Bavaria. In addition, secretly sent people to inquire about their private lives. Liu Chuan ordered.

Carl Jonalet was stunned, and then understood what Liu Chuan meant.

“Your Majesty, I will do it as soon as possible!” Carl Jonalight said.

He knew that His Majesty the Emperor was going to choose an empress.

Liu Chuan knew very well that the royal marriage had no feelings at all. However, feelings can be slowly cultivated after marriage. The so-called first get on the bus and buy a ticket after buying a ticket is also very common in this era.

However, Liu Chuan also didn’t want his queen to be too ugly, so wouldn’t he be too sorry for himself?

I finally became the emperor, if the queen is a dinosaur again, it will be too humiliating, right?

Of course, this is not very likely.

The princesses of various royal families are usually very beautiful. Because through generations of genetic improvement, even the founding emperors and kings do not look good. However, after generations of such optimization, there are many handsome men and women in the royal family.

What makes Liu Chuan care more is undoubtedly his private life.

The private life of the European royal family in this era was very chaotic. He didn’t want his queen to be a watery woman. If you give him a few more green hats, what else will you get?

What’s more, if even the future son is someone else’s, then it is estimated that he will even have the heart to kill.

If none of these problems exist, then it is naturally the best.

Princess Elizabeth Mary and Princess Gondelinde, each with their own merits.

In Liu Chuan’s mind, he is actually more inclined to Princess Elizabeth Mary.

Princess Elizabeth Marie was the granddaughter of Franz Joseph I and the daughter of his eldest son, Crown Prince Rudolf.

However, Crown Prince Rudolf first shot and killed his mistress and then committed suicide after he asked both parties to end their husband’s wife, and then because he asked both parties to end their respective husband and wife relationships.

This made the position of the crown prince fall to the head of Archduke Ferdinand.

However, Archduke Ferdinand also married because of nobility, that is, his wife was not a nobleman. Therefore, even if he becomes the crown prince, he will inherit the throne in the future. However, his children also have no inheritance rights.

Liu Chuan clearly knew that Archduke Ferdinand would most likely die before the war broke out. In that case, Princess Elizabeth Marie would have the right to inherit Austria-Hungary.

He could even use this to support the merger of the Germanic Empire and Austria-Hungary.

Although the present Austro-Hungarian Empire had many problems, the states that made up the empire had their own interests and conflicts.

However, the main reason is because the Kingdom of Audili, as the main body of the empire, does not occupy an absolute dominant position.

Unlike the Germanic Empire, although it was also a dual monarchical empire, the Kingdom of Prussia occupied an absolute dominant position. So, the Germanic Empire was stable.

But Austria-Hungary was completely different, and Germans did not make up the majority in Austria-Hungary. In addition, the larger ethnic groups include the Hungarians and Bohemians.

In addition, the variety of languages and the uneven economic development made the entire Austro-Hungarian Empire full of contradictions.

If the Germanic Empire were to merge with Austria-Hungary, the Germans would have an absolute majority in the new empire. The population of the entire empire will reach 120 million people. Among them, the Germanic people can reach more than 80 million. For other nationalities, there are 30 or 40 million.

Through cultural and educational and linguistic unification, the new empire would gradually move towards stability.

By that time, the population of the new Germanic Empire will exceed 120 million, and it will be the most populous country in Europe and even in the Western world, second only to the Tsarist Empire.

The disadvantage of insufficient population will be fundamentally solved.

In the future, Liu Chuan will lead the new Germanic Empire to dominate Europe and even the world, and the chances will be even greater.

Of course, all this is just Liu Chuan’s idea.

Whether Austria-Hungary was willing to marry the Germanic Empire depended on their own ideas.

Liu Chuan believed that with the alliance between the Germanic Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, it was unlikely that Austria-Hungary would refuse the marriage.

After all, there were many internal problems in Austria-Hungary, and everything would have been much easier without the support of the Germanic Empire.

The marriage would also make the alliance between the Germanic Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire closer.
