Chapter 2455 Butterfly Dream

In 1794, Prussia promulgated the "General State Law", which used "inhabitants" instead of "subjects" at the beginning of this law. This includes the title of egalitarianism, emphasizing that regardless of social status, class or gender, the law of the country Binding on all members. But in the introduction to Chapter 82, when the Code talks about the "duties and rights of the nobility", it bluntly states that "the nobility is the first class of the state", their main duty and task is to defend their identity, and members of the nobility only use Judged by the Supreme Court, nobles have the privilege to enter "places of national glory" and "only nobles have the right to own noble territories".

  The ruler of Prussia at that time was not Frederick the Great, but his nephew Frederick William II, a typical Baroque king.

Although Frederick the Great consumed the population of the country, he still left a large inheritance, said to be 51 million talers, but during the 11 years of the reign of Frederick William II, he squandered it, his wife and concubines became The army was expanded to 240,000, the highest ever in Prussia.

   In addition, he adopted tax cuts to please the people, resulting in Prussia's debt as high as 48 million thalers at one point. In the General State Law of Prussia, the state was obliged to make "compensation" for those who were compelled to sacrifice their special rights for the common good. That is to say, Frederick William II recognized that the state had an obligation to be responsible for war orphans and disabled persons, and during his reign the care institutions for these groups had been developed and expanded, but due to the financial situation, there was more than enough power.

   Frederick William III was very different from his father when he came to power. He was very loyal to the queen, and he was also very simple. He lived in a luxurious palace in Berlin, but it was of no help financially, because his father left a nearly bankrupt country.

Although Prussia's territory nearly tripled and its population nearly halved during the reign of Frederick William II, Prussia's prestige in Europe declined. When Russia invaded Poland in 1792, Prussia betrayed its alliance with Poland. Military alliance, sending troops to occupy Polish territory, and completing the second partition of Poland with Russia, Prussia got Gdansk, Torun, Poznan and other Greater Poland areas. But it was also in the city of Poznan that the witch trials took place, and despite the parliamentary order banning witch-hunting and torture, Poznan still used the transition of power as an excuse to repeal the law against witch-hunting.

   Frederick the Great advocated the values ​​espoused by the Enlightenment, while his nephew joined the Rosicrucian society, who pursued the mystical and supernatural more than Freemasonry. When he was crown prince, Frederick William II was obsessed with spiritualism and astrology. The king's ministers, advisers, and people who claimed to be the king's friends competed with each other to try to influence the king, and Frederick William II also showed the characteristics of being easily swayed by ministers, and Frederick II was also deeply influenced by a mystic The influence of the Minister of Culture even made the Minister of Culture the de facto Prime Minister.

   Mrs. Stahl commented that the "Prussian General State Law" is like a two-faced **** of Rome, one side is military and the other is philosophy. Georgiana, however, believed that this law did not achieve "equality", or that everyone under the monarchy advocated by Frederick the Great was equal, and the king, including the king, must be bound by the law. This was inherited by Queen Maria Theresa of Austria, and her reforms also reflected this aspect.

  The Prussians considered "the common interest" and "the specific property rights of the nobility". To a certain extent, Prussia has returned from the "enlightened despotism" to the European dynastic model.

After Betty was arrested, the gate of the Brussels police station was crowded with citizens who reported the case. They all had their relatives missing, or were suspected to have died in a road robbery, but the murderer could not be found. There were as many as 600. Betty was later transferred to the city. Barracks, and when the time comes she will be sent to Welford Prison, where there is typhoid, but there are walls and garrison. The "peasant war" that occurred in 1799 was also called "the stick war" by the Luxembourgers. The insurgents were mainly distributed in Brabantine, Limburg and northern Luxembourg, which were not on the route of Dumrière's retreat.

  Bekeland and his accomplices were deserters. The deserters would not necessarily lose their helmets and armor. It was also possible that they had guns and other weapons in their hands.

   Joseph II adopted micro-services in Belgium during his tour, which saved him a lot of time and avoided the trouble of welcoming towns and sending himself to swear to defend the rights and freedoms of his subjects.

  Georgianna didn't take the oath, the Panorama Prison will definitely attract criticism in the future, but now everyone is still immersed in joy. Napoleon had given her 200,000 francs from the tax collectors of Valenciennes to build the road, and fortunately she had made up her mind to do so, or else she would be involved in the question of the Brussels Parliament about where the money for the new prisons came from.

   The corruption of this era is embezzlement of public funds in the name of fraud, and Georgiana may be safe on her own, but there is no guarantee for others.

   The key is that she is really good at speaking, she obviously doesn't, and Marie Antoinette's attendance at social events after the necklace incident will always attract boos. There was a gulf that was difficult to bridge between the court of Versailles and its subjects, famous for its huge luxury, but this gulf was not like the gulf of Camelunga, but a pristine abyss.

  The Arc de Triomphe is a landmark of Paris, and even France. This place witnesses both greatness and insignificance. Even Napoleon, the **** of war, could not have won the battle of Austerlitz alone.

   A general must have soldiers. He has a very magical place. Even after many years, he remembers the name of a soldier. It seems that in his eyes, the soldier is not anonymous.

   She did not know whether she would return to the world of the 21st century in the future, standing in front of the Monument of Unsung Heroes and looking up at the Arc de Triomphe.

   She was just a nameless person, how could Bonaparte take a fancy to her?

   This is a dream full of myths and epics. When she opens her eyes, she is still the woman who delusionally replaces Lily and becomes Snape's love, but is destined to live under Lily's shadow all her life.

   She was grateful that Snape took care of her when she needed it, but she wouldn't give in to it.

   At least she won't be like the princess in the magic flute. If the prince doesn't love her anymore, she will choose to kill herself.

  The morning was over, and there was still an afternoon left, and she didn't intend to wait for Bonaparte's reply like a girl who was standing by the phone waiting for her boyfriend's call.

   She was going to go out for a while, maybe she could find new inspiration and figure out a way to raise the 26 million francs.
