Chapter 167 Cultural Extinction
East Africa, Africa is also a desert of civilization compared to the whole world. The splendid ancient Egyptian civilization supports the long history of civilization in Africa.
But Ernst never regarded Egypt as a part of Africa. When he thought of Africa, Ernst would subconsciously exclude the whole of North Africa. The vast Sahara Desert, like a Milky Way, divided the whole of Africa into two worlds.
The aborigines in the wilderness of East Africa are not the civilized world in Ernst's eyes. They are so wild that Ernst feels that they are integrated with the vast African continent.
From the point of view of conscience, Ernst is unwilling to break the indigenous way of life of dancing with beasts for thousands of years.
However, without Ernst, there would be other colonists who would break the tranquility of this continent, so Western colonists are the real destroyers of this world.
They forcibly pulled Africa into the gears of the world, and before their arrival, these indigenous people had no concept of human society, they obeyed the weak and the strong like the animals in the East African wilderness, and truly pure thinking, they Rich is the most primitive and wild thinking.
The colonists endowed these indigenous worlds with all the evil deeds of the so-called civilized world, such as lies, fraud, selfishness, greed, etc.
But they don't educate them, and they hand over the great thoughts and good morals of human sages to these natives.
Of course, Ernst is not a good person. As an old fritter who has been whipped by society for decades, Ernst's heart is also black.
Now Ernst is going to completely obliterate the traces of the existence of these aborigines in East Africa. Destroying the traces of the aborigines in East Africa is very simple, especially in the grassland area. A wildfire can completely burn the traces of the aboriginal existence.
However, Ernst's main target this time is not these indigenous people, but the Arab civilization that really left traces of civilization in East Africa.
There is a large amount of Arab civilization heritage in the East African colonies. Arabs, Persians, Indians and even the Ming Dynasty in the Far East have visited the land of East Africa.
India, Persia and the Far East are nothing to worry about, after all, they are just passers-by in East Africa.
It is the Arabs who really took root in East Africa. There are a lot of traces of Arab civilization along the coast of East Africa and the area close to North Africa.
The buildings and cities left behind by the Sultanate of Zanzibar are just the tip of the iceberg, and the Kenya and Buganda regions are heavily influenced by North Africa.
Even in the 21st century, archaeologists can still find traces left by the ancient Arabs in the ruins of East Africa.
The all-halal-style buildings are quite eye-catching in East Africa, many of which are products of the Middle Ages, and they are proper cultural heritage in previous lives.
But Ernst is not a person who cherishes cultural relics, especially these things that may affect the future land jurisprudence of East Africa.
People always like to imagine, and many people like the term "since ancient times". There used to be many cities built by Arab civilizations in East Africa.
Not to mention the 21st century, even now, this kind of thing is very common, for example, a bunch of countries in Europe claim to be the successors of Rome, if the French and Germans are for the purpose of claiming.
Then Italy is dreaming of restoring the Roman Empire, which is wishful thinking. Everyone knows that Rome is not safe as Italy says. Maybe the entire Mediterranean coast will be ceded to you!
Some people in Italy want to eat swan meat like toads, and they want to go crazy.
And the Turks are purely funny clowns. Eastern Rome was destroyed by the Ottoman Empire. As a result, the Ottoman Empire now also claims to be Roman orthodoxy. , There is no way to survive for Eastern Rome, and even the culture has been exterminated, how embarrassing.
Moreover, Turkey wants to use the banner of Rome, but also never forgets the Arab civilization. Later, it also developed Pan-Turkism, which really jumped up and down.
So, with the development of the times, the outrageous things will only become more and more outrageous, and Ernst is just patching up, trying to prevent future foreign countries from picking **** as much as possible.
As for East Africa, all historical relics have been destroyed. In the future, the history books of East Africa will replace the United States as the thinnest one. Ernst doesn't care.
Even if the United States brought together cultural relics and cultures from all over the world to the United States in the previous life, it would not change the contempt of the people in the old continent for American history and culture.
East Africa, which has a shorter period of time, does not need to hide its ears and steal the bell. It just has no history and culture. If you admit it, you will openly admit that East Africa is a suture monster.
Fisher's job was one such job, directing demolition work in Dar es Salaam.
All the buildings left by the Zanzibar Sultanate were demolished, and then built with German-style buildings. This work was carried out in areas such as Mombasa and Buganda at the same time.
In the future, new German-style cities will replace typical Arabic buildings such as mosques and become a new window for East Africa's foreign exchanges.
It was a complete accident that a "high-end talent" like Fischer could come to Africa. The "Stuttgart Evening News" was actually run by Ernst. Job advertisements were placed in newspapers.
I originally thought that East Africa would not be very attractive to German city dwellers. After all, the salary is not high, and Africa is so bad in Europe.
But Ernst underestimated the living conditions at the bottom of this era. Even in cities with a relatively developed economy, there are still craftsmen like Fisher who can't get rid of the pot at home.
However, don’t imagine that a large number of workers can be recruited by advertising. The vast majority of Germans are still willing to live in Europe. It is helpless to leave their hometown.
Moreover, there are not so many jobs in East Africa to accommodate these workers. Fisher is fine. The construction industry can be enjoyed anywhere, that is, the technical threshold is relatively low.
However, the European industry is currently in a saturated state, and the low-tech threshold is easy to be replaced. In addition, Fisher has no education, all rely on ancestral experience, and just met a boss who has no conscience. Scheer lost his job and went to work in East Africa.
There are not many such unlucky people in Germany. Even if they wait a little longer, they should be able to find a job. However, Fisher's family still has three mouths to eat, so he can't wait.
In addition, the southwestern region of Germany is indeed a key area for East African immigration. With the demonstration of peasant groups immigrating to East Africa, it further deepened Fisher's impulse to develop in East Africa.
