Chapter 535: Backward Agricultural Countries

Port construction requires a long time of preparation and will affect operations in the short term, so the British plan is not feasible for the time being, and they are struggling to build Maputo Port. Ernst is very unkind and wonders whether it will be cheaper in the end. East Africa.

Similarly, Britain and Portugal are also thinking that the ports in East Africa will eventually become their own assets. Anyway, the risks are quite high.

The beginning of 1880.

The census work in East Africa continues, and the approximate population data of East Africa is also known. In 1879, the total number of immigrants and new-born people in East Africa was about 34.72 million, and the number of black people was 19.62 million.

Adding the two together, the total population of East Africa is around 54 million, which is more than the United States, Germany and other countries.

Of course, black people in East Africa are generally not counted as a population, but black people in East Africa have definitely made a huge contribution to the construction of East Africa, which is indelible.

The population of East Africa (including black people) exceeds 50 million, which meets the definition of a populous country in previous generations. It is also the fourth most populous country in the world after the Far Eastern Empire, the British Empire, and Tsarist Russia.

If black people are excluded, the total population of East Africa exceeds that of Japan, is equivalent to the total population of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and is slightly lower than Germany. The current population of East Africa is sufficient to become competitive with major countries in the world.

"The average life span of most people in this era is relatively short. The average life span of people in the world is about thirty to forty years old. Although we in East Africa have actively played an active role in continuously reducing stress and burden on the population, the average life span of people has only reached three years. The standard of about fifteen years old is basically the world average." Health Minister Belred reported to the government.

"The main reason for the high mortality rate in East Africa is disease. Our Ministry of Health has the best say on this point. Especially the immigrant population in East Africa. Many of them have accumulated a certain amount of hidden trauma in their early years. When they arrive in East Africa, they will experience the torture of the sea again. , and you may eventually contract malaria and other diseases, so it is indeed common for people to live short lives, but we are no different from other countries in this regard."

"We lack medical resources, especially doctors. However, we are well prepared for some unified standard essential drugs, such as quinine, anti-inflammatory drugs, etc. In particular, traditional Chinese medicine provided strong support for the early country building in East Africa and satisfied the needs meeting the needs of grassroots medical staff and medical treatment.”

"The birth rate in East Africa has also hit a new high, but it is also accompanied by a high mortality rate. The good news is that the climate in East Africa is stable, and generally there will be no big changes when giving birth. The bad news is that we lack childhood vaccines and other things to improve the health of newborns. Survival rate.”

Belred is a bit greedy in this regard. Most countries in the world do not have the conditions to provide this kind of protection for newborns, let alone countries in East Africa that are extremely short of medical talents.

“The population of East Africa is generally young and is superior to most countries in the world, especially the number of black people, who share most of the losses in important national projects. This is a major prerequisite for ensuring social stability and the health of citizens in East Africa. "

"In recent years, the black population has actually decreased by more than four million. You must know that we occupied part of the Portuguese territory last year. According to normal rules, the black population should increase, but the overall number of black people in East Africa is still greatly reduced. However, this is different from what we used to do before. Compared with directly using methods such as war to drive out and reduce black people, the efficiency is still lower."

"Now the demand for black people in East Africa has increased, especially for nationwide projects. If we want to develop the country's land in a short period of time, there is only one way, and that is to add human lives to it. This human life cannot be you or me, let alone They may be East African people, so they can only be black people.” ˆ ˆ ˆ “So many of these black people cannot be sold, but die directly on the land of East Africa, so we must also be prepared for this, especially cremation, etc. Procedure is essential.”

This does not count as destroying evidence. After all, ordinary people in East Africa must be cremated after death. This is mandatory by the health department.

“The country’s agricultural population accounts for more than 85%, and the total population of industry, commerce, military, and transportation is less than five million. This shows that East Africa is still a backward agricultural country.”

“Last year, agricultural tax revenue accounted for about 80% of the government’s fiscal revenue. With the increase in population, inland development, improvement of agricultural tools, and improvement in production efficiency, there is room for further improvement in agricultural tax revenue in East Africa.”

"In the national fiscal revenue, especially in the export-oriented economy, the export of tropical cash crops accounts for more than 60%. However, we also encounter some problems, one is logistics and the other is storage. Many cash crops, especially It is fruits and vegetables that require shorter time and better storage and preservation technology.”

"In the national economic statistics of 1879 (excluding the Hechingen Consortium), heavy industry accounted for 75% of the national industry. In particular, steel and railways contributed extremely high, and at the same time drove the mining industry and As for the development of other industries, the light industry has developed at a slow pace, and is still dominated by small traditional handicraft workshops."

East Africa seems to have followed the old path of the Soviet Union, but there is no negative effect in the current environment. The proportion of heavy industry is only too large in the proportion of East Africa's industry. In fact, East Africa is an agricultural country, and East Africa has transformed from an agricultural country to an industrial country. As long as the process exists, everything is within control.

"So to sum up, after fifteen years of development in East Africa, the country has entered a new stage. We are already considered a normal country, and the shortcomings in population have been filled. However, we have also encountered new problems, that is, East Africa As a backward agricultural country, we are actively seeking to transform into an industrial country."

The so-called normal countries in East Africa are the same as most countries in the world. This has happened in East Africa for fifteen years. Although slavery still exists, this problem will definitely be solved in the next 20 to 30 years.

In addition to various initiatives in East Africa, the most important thing is that black people in East Africa cannot live that long. The average life span of black people is only more than 20 years old, less than 30 years old. Therefore, even if nothing is done in East Africa now, more than 20 years of life will be Post-Negro will die a natural death too.

Facts have proved that the lower limit of human beings will continue to lower. At the beginning, Ernst was still relatively immature and thought of sending black people out of East Africa to die in other countries. Now East Africa has left most of the fig leaf behind in order to meet the demographic dividend demand for development.

The number of black people dying in East Africa is rising year by year, especially large-scale construction projects, which are almost entirely completed by manpower, and medical care cannot keep up, so the black mortality rate remains at a high level.

But as we approach the end of the century, Ernst still wants to put more burdens on the black people in East Africa, especially the development and construction of projects in some harsh areas, which require the blood and sweat of these black people.

For example, transportation and other projects in mountainous areas such as Hesse Province can be completed by cheap black people now, which will save a lot of time in the future.

Some projects must be completed manually, so most of the infrastructure will be installed now when labor costs are lowest in East Africa. In the future, only leaks and routine maintenance will be needed.
