Chapter 1189 Invitation

Since the South African War, East Africa can no longer keep a low profile in the military field, but the military can only represent the external appearance of the country in East Africa.

After all, as long as they are willing to spend money, the military strength of many countries can be glamorous on the surface, such as Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates in previous lives, or the Beiyang Navy of the Far East Empire, and the Russian Navy before the Russo-Japanese War. When it comes to actual combat, the secret is revealed directly.

Without the support of strong economic and industrial strength, this kind of military obtained through "Made by All Nations" is just a fake. Even if it uses advanced Western weapons, it is nothing more than a one-time consumable.

Of course, East Africa is not among them. After all, East Africa initiated the independence of its defense industry as early as the last century. However, military alone cannot solve all problems.

Especially for some independent countries, blind threats of force will only push them to potential enemies in East Africa, such as the United States, Japan, or great powers such as Britain, France, and Russia.

Russia is a typical example. Russia's military strength is by no means weak, but its poor foreign policy has made most of its neighbors and peripheral areas of the country hate it.

With preparations for the East Africa World Expo, the East African government has also begun sending invitations to all parts of the world.

Far Eastern Empire.

"Why is there another country holding a World Expo?" Looking at the invitation letter submitted by the East African Embassy, the President of the Far Eastern Empire asked: "Is the United States still holding the Panama Expo? They also invited us to participate before."

Faced with the President's inquiry, Yang Du said: "There is such a Panama Expo, but it seems to have started in February this year. At that time, the U.S. government strongly invited the Chinese government to participate in this expo. Although it was called the Panama Expo, the actual location was exactly the same. It’s in San Francisco on the west coast of the United States.”

The president said: "In this case, East Africa is coming to join in the fun. Could it be that this World Expo is just like a game? It's like child's play!"

The timing of the World Expo held in East Africa is actually a bit tricky. The World Exposition here in the United States has not yet ended, and East Africa has also come to join in the fun. This made the president think of the idiom "what you do in the past imitates others".

Yang Du said: "In fact, it is easy to understand. Western countries have always liked to display their economic and industrial strength through expositions, especially exhibitions such as the World Expo, which have huge economic benefits behind them."

"Through product display, it can be beneficial to the export of domestic products, and this is what countries around the world are pursuing now. The international market is very important, especially in the Western world, which pays more attention to 'profit' than 'righteousness'."

The president said: "That's true, but the United States and East African governments have successively held world expositions. There must be something fishy about it. What do you think, Mr. Tiger?"

After thinking for a while, Yang Du said: "From a conspiracy perspective, the United States and East Africa do have motives to achieve some goals through the expo. After all, the world situation is now in a very delicate environment."

"European countries are mired in war, which has caused major powers such as Britain, France, Russia, and Germany to withdraw back into Europe, and a large number of power vacuums have appeared in the entire world."

"The only major countries that are not at war now are the United States, East Africa and Japan. However, Japan is too small and obviously cannot compete with the two big countries of the United States and East Africa."

"So when East Africa hosts the World Expo during this time, it seems to have the meaning of competing with the United States."

The president said with great agreement: "I think so too. It is impossible for East Africa not to know about the Panama International Exposition in the United States, and the economic competition between the United States and East Africa this year is indeed very fierce."

I don’t know where Yuan got the news. The competition between East Africa and the United States is indeed fierce, but it is definitely not so fierce. After all, the current confrontation between the two countries is mainly reflected in the economic field.

Whoever expands production capacity faster will be able to eat more. There is no doubt that East Africa, which has been prepared for a long time, has the first mover advantage. As for the United States, it is completely inferior to others in terms of technology. After all, the market demand is so strong now, your own If capacity expansion is not timely, the problem cannot be entirely blamed on East Africa. Moreover, East Africa and the United States compete and cooperate. Many American trading companies directly choose to cooperate with East Africa due to insufficient local production capacity, that is, ordering from East Africa and then selling them to Europe. So not all American companies hate East Africa. Of course, , it is inevitable that the overall attitude of American society towards East Africa is not very good.

However, it is most likely that a newspaper with a European capital background would make fun of the United States and East Africa in such a weird way.

Yang Du said: "The World Expo is, to put it bluntly, a large-scale merchandise sales fair. For example, if the United States invites my country, it is obviously coveting our huge population market. The East African government must also have this consideration."

"But as long as the two countries do not interfere in our country's politics, we will naturally want to actively participate in such activities."

The president nodded and said: "In that case, let's organize a group of people to go to East Africa to participate in this event! Recently, some people are ignorant of current affairs and found this excuse to let them go to East Africa. After all, East Africa is also considered an empire. "The fact that East Africa is so strong now clearly shows that we are right."

After all, the president has embarked on the path of his previous life and wants to go further, but even if Ernst knew it, he would not be able to say anything.

After all, he had also chosen a monarchy, and the current monarchy in East Africa was not yet a constitutional monarchy. Ernst was purely a feudal monarch.

As for the achievements in East Africa, it obviously has little to do with the monarchy. It is entirely due to Ernst's prophetic advantage.

The East African government's invitation letter to the Far Eastern Empire was actually a matter of convenience and was not the focus of East Africa's invitation to this round of World Expo.

The key invited countries are countries in Oceania and South America, which basically coincides with the concept of the southern hemisphere economic system in East Africa.

Even the British colony of Australia is also within the scope of East Africa's invitation. Although Australia is only a colony, Australia is important enough, so East Africa will not be able to ignore Australia.

Of course, at this stage, East Africa certainly has no actual actions against Australia. As long as the British hegemony has not disintegrated, Australia will only be Britain's loyal dog. This can be seen from the current European war, Australia directly sent troops to help Britain increase its momentum.

The countries that the East African World Expo values most are actually South American countries, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Venezuela, etc.

Over the past decade or so, East Africa's exchanges with South American countries have achieved great results. Now, through the East Africa World Expo, they can further strengthen their "trust" in East Africa.

These countries are what East Africa has really planned for a long time. Now South America is the "frontline" for East Africa and the United States to compete for regional voice.

The United States has greatly increased its momentum in South America through the Panama Expo, and East Africa also plans to use the World Expo to let South American countries see that East Africa is a top power that is not inferior to the United States in all aspects.

This is actually a process of "flexing muscles", and then American countries use the strength of the two countries and their own political needs to pay homage to the new dock.

As for the original docks, they were naturally Britain and France. Now Britain and France are inseparable in Europe, and the United States and East Africa have begun to poach the corners of Britain, France and Germany.

Therefore, during this period of time, East Africa must fully demonstrate the "advancedness" of East Africa's industry, economy, culture, etc. Only in this way can countries that plan to defect to East Africa be willing to do so.

The negative example is Tsarist Russia. Why are Russia’s “little brothers” so eccentric? It’s not because Russia’s economy is poor and its politics are corrupt. If you become Russia’s “little brother”, you will most likely not have a good life.
