Chapter 2062 Drink of Victory (12)

Although it is a tent castle drawn with strokes, it still looks amazing after being set up in just a few days. The key is that there is a certain wooden structure inside, unlike ordinary tents built with ropes, which seem to fall down when the wind blows.

When Georgiana walked in, the dining table had been set and covered with white tablecloths, but no plates were placed. There was a small tent not far from the big tent, which was a temporary kitchen. You could see the kitchen

My mother directed the helpers to rotate the whole roasted lamb on the fire.

She smelled the smell of onions from a long distance away, which reminded her of the Guards' military song - "The Onion Song". The last time Georgiana heard them sing it was when Bonaparte was choosing generals to go to Saint-Domingue.

There were also British people present at the safari party.

She knew that giving up fishing rights was not that simple, especially since Addington also banned France from fishing. It was hard for her to imagine anyone other than William Pitt Jr. having such a plan.

Before "leaving", Georgiana learned a prophecy from the crystal ball that the turmoil in Paris would spread to all parts of Europe. There were many cities in those pictures, but there was no London.

Now she should think carefully about the concept of "Europe", that is, "Europa".

If we look at the empire established by Charlemagne, the "Father of Europe", the Kingdom of England is obviously not part of it. This is also the "foreign policy" that Britain has always pursued. A divided European continent is beneficial to Britain, and European countries

There is often a "Roman dream", which is not only to restore the territory of the former Roman Empire, but also to be unified like Rome.

No matter what happens behind the scenes, the Foreign Office is pro-European, and Georgiana cannot imagine what it would be like for the UK to withdraw from "Europe".

This was originally the case until the British Ministry of Magic took the lead in withdrawing from the International Confederation of Wizards under the influence of Septimus Malfoy. Now Rufkin is trying to find a way to bring Britain back to the International Confederation of Wizards, in addition to firmly enforcing international secrecy.

The method separates the Muggle world from the wizarding world, with wizards handing over wizards and Muggles dividing Muggles, otherwise it would be difficult for her to do it.

Seeing the roasted sheep, she thought of "Shaun" again. He was probably happily basking in the sun and eating grass at the same time.

Poor Neville, how he faced his pet toad Laifu after dissecting a bucket of toads.

She continued to patrol the tent. At night, she used windproof whale oil lamps for lighting. Roses were placed in flower pots made of plaster, with ribbons tied on them, which could be used as partitions. The scene of two thousand people eating together was

It is twice as big as the opening ceremony of Hogwarts, but students can sit wherever they want, and these senior officials have their own seats.

Matilda was instructing the waiters borrowed from the old town of Boulogne-sur-Mer to get cards with the names of the guests they served. She shouted until her voice became hoarse.

"There are no priests at the party tonight?" asked Madame La Rochefoucauld.

"How do you think there are priests?" Georgiana asked.

She was speechless for a long time.

Georgiana didn't say much. Just look at the French Revolution to see how much impact the church's collapse had. The witch hunts in the Middle Ages were not as powerful.

Similarly, it is not easy for them to come back. Robespierre tried to replace them, but failed. Consumerism has completed the "de-Christianization".

If you don't have time to think about theological issues, it's better to think of ways to make money, or to improve your skills and increase your competitiveness.

The purchasing power of women after "de-Christianization" has increased, but they will hardly have more than a dozen children like the women of "ancient times".

It is easier to eat when there are fewer people, and it is easier to work when there are more people. France has the largest number of young adults in Europe, and it was only then that it was able to recruit an army that could resist the "King's Alliance".

According to the original history, when Napoleon became emperor and was crowned, the pope played the role of master of ceremonies. However, he picked up the crown and crowned himself, and even the pope's remaining role in the ceremony was blurred.

The king must have the pope come to crown him. If the pope comes, the dukes and kings must kiss the pope's ring and kneel on one knee during the coronation. Therefore, the archbishop usually does the coronation, and the king just needs to sit down.

The authority of theocracy is lower than that of Napoleon, the democratically elected emperor. Most French people are vague about this concept. King and emperor are two concepts, although they both represent monarchy.

Although Napoleon was no longer a lifelong monarch, he retained a designated heir in the constitution, which was somewhat similar to the Roman dictator.

The difference between hereditary and elected successors is not just blood relationship. For example, if a Roman dictator did not designate a successor, he would decide from among the "well-known people" or Parliament. The British chose

In the second way, when James II was overthrown, they chose a "Dutch Orange" to become king of England, and later members of Hanover became kings, all of whom were of more blood than James II's son.

The relationship is much more distant.

"As we all know", the father's inheritance is inherited by his son. If the son is gone, it will be inherited by relatives, such as brothers. But the country is different from the family property of an individual. The throne of the Roman Empire is not hereditary, and sometimes it happens.

Son-in-law and adopted son will inherit.

When there are too many successors, drawing on the historical experience of the Eastern Empire, there may be a civil war such as the Eight Kings Rebellion in the Western Jin Dynasty. This gives the Wuhu an opportunity to disrupt China. In order to avoid the outbreak of civil war, the person who is entrusted with the power to govern has the power, and

There is a natural law obligation to designate an heir.

The people did not give Napoleon the power to rule for life, but gave him the power to choose his successor and immunity. The constitution was approved by a referendum.

This is similar to Pomona passing the throne to Neville. There are many botanists outside the school who are better than him, but she passed the position of professor of Herbology to Neville, and the responsibilities of the dean were taken over by Professor Graplan.

In other words, Napoleon could also divide the power of his dictator and give it to one or two people, but the power to designate a successor belonged to the First Consul, and he could not divide this title.

The way the Roman emperor declared his heir could be verbal or in a written will. (emphasis added) The person who inherits the throne does not represent the children or close relatives of the person who inherits the throne, but anyone who declares to inherit his status in any way.

Even if this person is not among the "well known" heirs.

If everyone chooses to obey the rules of the game, there will be no unfairness. The laws of the country are like the rules of the game. Maybe you are a shoe shiner, but the First Consul thinks you can lead the people, and then you become

His heir.

It feels like a dream, but wasn't Numa also living in seclusion with his wife when he became the second king of Rome?

The reason for choosing him was bird divination, that is, he was chosen based on a bird. Modern people must think that this choice is particularly unreasonable. But Numa was indeed a wise king. He also changed the Roman calendar so that it would not be affected by changes in the political situation.

, there is no need for the temple to announce it, it only matches the calendar of the waxing and waning of the moon.

Numa once had a tryst with the fairies and gained the ability to prevent people from being sacrificed due to natural disasters.

But what falls from the sky is not necessarily pie, it may also be hail. If the lucky heir is not afraid of poison and daggers, he can also try it.

"Oh, by the way, ice cubes!" Georgiana slapped her forehead. "Are the ice cubes ready?"

"Get ready, the champagne is always served on ice," said Madame Barron.

Although it is such a cold day and we are still in a leaky tent, what if someone wants to drink ice?

Not to mention there is already ice cream for dessert.

Look what a "clever" idea she came up with.

She turned around again, and when she passed a hillside, she suddenly heard the sound of a cannon, which was a new type of artillery. At the same time, there was a fleet docked on the sea, with a British flag hanging on the mast, as if a guest had arrived.
