The Civil War in El Salvador was like the final straw that broke the cal’s back, directly prompting the Arican people to start condemning the governnt and erupting in Protests demanding that the governnt promptly use military force to recover these regions.
In particular, the Panama Canal, which concerns the interests of all Arican People and the convenience of east-west traffic along the Arican Coastline.
The significance of the Panama Canal to the United States is no less than that of the Malacca Strait to East Asia and the Suez Canal to diterranean countries.
With the Panama Canal, Aricans only need to navigate around Central Arica to freely traverse the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean.
But if they lost the Panama Canal, or even if it fell into the hands of Arica’s enemies and competitors, Aricans traveling between the east and west coasts would have to go around an entire South Arica.
This would not only increase the cost of the journey but also add a lot more ti consumption. As a result, the developnt of the Arican economy would be hindered, which would be a major event for the United States.
"The incompetent Coolidge Administration, you are even weaker than the Wilson Administration!"
"Arica has not been a superpower since World War I, because it has had two of the most incompetent Presidents in succession!"
"Why should the vast United States fear rebellion from small countries? What is our governnt doing?"
Starting from mid to late March, such reports began to appear frequently in Arican newspapers, also reflecting the dissatisfaction of the Arican people and the Opposition party with the current Arican governnt.
The Arican Governnt was so busy that President Coolidge’s reputation in the United States also fell sharply in an instant.
While the Aricans were busy, the British Governnt also announced loudly that it would support the Civil Wars in Central Arican countries and end the peace in this region as soon as possible.
This proposal was recognized by most countries in the World Alliance, and while they did not agree to ard intervention, they already held the moral high ground in principle.
At the sa ti, Australasia publicly recognized the rebellious spirit of the Central Arican countries and announced its support for the rebels in El Salvador.
This was like the final straw that broke the cal’s back, directly causing Arica’s rule in Central Arica to collapse.
Although France was not interested in military intervention in Central Arica, it would not stand up against Britain either, for they had a PY transaction with the British, gaining further rights to exploit the Germans.
Since Britain and Australia announced their support for the Central Arican rebel forces, communication between the Arican Governnt and the Island Nation beca more frequent.
But neither Arica nor the Island Nation were confident in uniting to face Australasia and Britain.
Although the Island Nation’s army had an absolute advantage in numbers, the combined navies of Britain and Australasia could completely blockade the Island Nation.
The army of the Island Nation can’t set sail, so naturally, the deterrent force against Britain and Australasia approaches zero.
Moreover, the Island Nation would not pour all of its efforts into Arica’s Central Arica, after all, the so-called Island-United States alliance was not that tight.
The backstabbing of the two countries in the naval limitation treaty negotiations, coupled with the gap caused by influenza, made it unlikely for these two countries to stand united.
Fortunately, the British had no intention of declaring war on Arica directly, and President Coolidge could only hope, upon a sigh of relief, that the Arican army would be able to suppress the local Rebellion.
This chaos in Central Arican directly turned Central Arica into a chessboard, with Arica and pro-Arican forces, as well as Britain and Australasia, becoming the players.
Although Arica has an absolute advantage in terms of distance, Britain and Australasia are stronger in overall strength and also have a nominal advantage, which is an undeniable factor.
Although it currently appears to be a war between the local governnts and rebel forces of these countries, the real influences on these wars are the behind-the-scenes power gas of the world’s Powerful Nations.
Luckily, El Salvador is just a small country, and Australasia only needs to assist with so Weaponry to help Carlos Herrera y Luna gain sovereign Power of the Salvadoran governnt.
The rest of the larger countries can be left to the British to plan; Arthur can just wait and see how the British and the Aricans fare in their power struggle in Central Arica.
There were not a few major international events that occurred in 1923, but before paying attention to these major events, the developnt of Australasia is also very important.
In the second half of the previous year, the three R108 battleships that took more than a year to build had their launch tests, allowing the hastily rushing Sydney Shipyard to finally take a breath of relief.
However, the delay by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was indeed effective, and with the various issues in the negotiations among several countries, the Naval Limitation Treaty was dragged into the new year without being signed.
Nonetheless, this did not hinder the naval testing of Australasia.
According to the shipyard’s titable, the earliest R108 battleship is expected to complete its launch tests by the middle of this year and be officially commissioned into the navy’s fleet.
And the remaining two battleships are expected to complete their sea trial phase by the second half of this year, at the latest they won’t carry over to the next year.
This also ans that Australasia could welco the addition of three super battleships within this year, ultimately consolidating Australasia’s naval strength to the point where the nation would no longer fear any other country in naval matters.
After the completion of all three R108 battleships, Australasia will have no further delays regarding the Naval Limitation Treaty.
But as of yet, this treaty has not been formally signed, a fact that is surely worth deep reflection.
There’s another piece of good news within Australasia, naly, the basic completion of the Fourth Phase of Leonora Industrial Base.
This phase of the industrial plan has been more than four years in the making since its comncent.
Though it has endured incidents such as the flu and other surprises, it hasn’t severely hindered the overall progress of the construction of the Fourth Phase.
Of course, the Cabinet Governnt did speed up the progress of the Fourth Phase plan for the Leonora Industrial Base appropriately, as this year is 1923, and a new term of Cabinet mbers will soon be voting.
As long as the construction of the Fourth Phase of the industrial base is completed and quickly put into use, the achievents of the Cabinet Governnt will look a bit better, and it will be simpler for so cabinet mbers to seek re-election.
After all, in Australasia, the most important factor for cabinet officials seeking re-election is their performance during their term.
In the past 20 years, the Cabinet Governnt has not made any major mistakes, which also places high demands on the re-election of cabinet mbers.
They must avoid errors and even have good achievents to qualify for re-election.
Although most cabinet mbers are likely to be re-elected, as one of the superpowers in the current world, competition in the Australasia political arena is still very intense.
Political parties have developed over the years and are no longer just a few in number. Presently, there are over 100 registered political parties in Australasia, with as many as 27 based on the seating of the House of Representatives, clearly demonstrating the complexity of current political competition.
Fortunately, these parties are all strictly scrutinized and managed by the Royal Parliant and the Electoral Commission, and Australasia’s crackdown on illegal parties is quite strong, which ans that most of the parties are within Arthur’s controllable range. Such a developnt doesn’t harm or threaten Arthur’s power.
This, however, has made it tough for those cabinet officials and other political parties because political competition in Australasia is relatively fair, and even the activity funds for the parties are uniformly distributed.
This ans that in terms of financial resources, there will not be much difference between political parties.
For parties to attract more public support and thereby secure more seats in the House of Representatives, they must sincerely consider the people’s interests, not just make empty promises without heed for practical actions.
The factories and warehouses constructed as part of the Fourth Phase of Leonora Industrial Base have officially started production, with hundreds of factories already introduced, and ongoing efforts to attract more investnt.
A steady stream of small and dium-sized manufacturers also choose to relocate within the industrial base, as the more developed industrial system there makes purchasing raw materials and selling industrial products much easier.
Of course, Arthur would not allow the Leonora Industrial Base to monopolize the industrial scene in Australasia. Find your next read on .Côm
There’s no other reason than for the sake of national security.
Although currently countries do not have the capability for long-range strikes, this does not an that in the future they won’t acquire that ability.
For the security of the nation, industry may be centralized but should not be overly so. Leonora Industrial Base will beco the leader of the western industrial sector in Australasia, but there should also be industrial bases and areas of various sizes in all states and other administrative regions, achieving a blossoming of industry in multiple locations.
The industrial construction in the New Zealand Region is also progressing smoothly. Although the industrial bases in North New Zealand State and South New Zealand State are not large, combined they still contribute about ten thousand jobs, providing considerable economic contributions and tax revenue for both.
This is similarly the case in Queensland State, New South Wales State, and Victoria State.
The economies of several states in the Australian Region are among the best in Australasia, except for the relatively small Tasmania State and the newly established states of Northern Australia and the Capital Territory.
This also ans that the state governnts of these wealthier states have comparatively more financial resources, and their infrastructural developnt is quite advanced compared to other states.
However, Australasia’s infrastructural planning is based on the supre governnt’s strategy, such that even the newly established state of Dili has caught up with its basic infrastructure.
This system, where the supre governnt plans uniformly while state governnts have so freedom in construction, is quite suitable for the developnt of Australasia.
When power is too centralized, state governnts do not have enough room to maneuver. But if power is too dispersed, and state governnts have too much autonomy, it’s not good for the nation’s unity and stability.
Finding a balance between the two levels of governnt and exploring a system that suits developnt in Australasia while not harming the political systems of both levels has been an ongoing effort for Australasia for more than 20 years.
Currently, it seems that this system is working quite well, where state governnts enjoy relative autonomy but are subject to restraint by the national governnt and do not have military power, thereby not undermining national unity.
