The Rise of Australasia

The flag-raising on National Day is differt from other times, as the national flag is to be hoisted at the very first momt the sun rises.

As a result, the timing of the National Day celebrations varies each year, but it is usually a six o'clock.

It can't be helped; January is summer in Australasia, so the sun naturally rises earlier.

After the flag of Australasia fluttered in the azure sky, Arthur began his speech.

"Citizs, I am delighted to meet you all on this special day. January th is a unique day for Australasia each year. We have expericed the colonial era, the integration of colonies into a country, and the unification of the country into a kingdom.

The royal family and the governmt have be committed to creating a peaceful and happy social vironmt, where all Australasians need not worry about hunger, poverty, war, or oppression."

"So far, we have achieved considerable results and are still striving for our highest goal. I believe everyone knows that although Australasia is a peaceful and stable country, there are still many wars and crises worldwide. As the King of Australasia, I am committed to prevting Australasia from getting involved in wars and hoping that all my citizs can live a peaceful and happy life."

"At the same time, we should also make some preparations as expected. We do not want war, but if any country or force tries to infringe upon the interests of Australasia and its people, our tire military will not hesitate to fight.

Let us unite in this great country and strive for our highest dream - the rise of Australasia, let the world remember Australasia, and let the people of Australasia stand at the peak of the world!"

Unsurprisingly, Arthur's speech resonated with the people of Australasia. As cheers and applause continued from the audice, Arthur knew that he had prepared for the possible future involvemt of Australasia in war.

After all, Australasia is an Oceania country, and the future World War I is a European war.

If preparations are not made in advance, it won't be easy to get the people of Australasia, who live in a peaceful vironmt, to support a war against a European military bloc.

After all, war inevitably leads to casualties and losses.

Once Australasia participates in the war, casualties in the military, the consumption of supplies, and financial losses are inevitable.

Although victory in war would bring a large amount of compsation and befits, the people cannot joy these things, let alone the uncertain time after the war.

Behind Arthur, Prince William and Princess Anna stood obeditly by Que Mary. Seeing the people of Australasia clapping in succession, the two childr clapped along, quite happily.

Arthur saw this sce and smiled. If nothing unexpected happs, this should also be the last time these two childr can joy themselves.

As the only prince and princess of Australasia, Prince William and Princess Anna will receive very good and traditional noble education from the age of three.

Ev Princess Anna, who is only second in line to the throne, will have to undergo various forms of noble etiquette education and develop various hobbies from a young age.

As the first in line to the throne and the only prince, Prince William's noble education will be ev more demanding.

It's not too bad in the first few years, just some noble etiquette education and ideological education, accompanied by some simple language courses.

But starting at age six, Prince William will begin learning history, politics, psychology, language, and economics, and under the guidance of various private teachers, learn how to become an excellt heir and future king.

Especially in a monarchy like Australasia, Arthur attaches great importance to the cultivation of the heir.

All conceivable and inconceivable education is what Prince William must study before adulthood.

Take language, for example, English, the official language of Australasia, Frch, which is popular among European nobility, Russian, Que Mary's mother tongue, and German, the third-largest language of the Australasian ethnic group, are the most basic languages ??Prince William must learn.

In addition, languages ??like Dutch and Spanish, which are popular in Europe, must also be learned, ev if not as thoroughly, but simple communication is necessary.

And history, politics, economics, psychology, and so on, are esstial knowledge for a ruler in an authoritarian country.

Without understanding these things, it's easy to be deceived by one's subordinates, and it would be impossible to come up with plans to improve the country's currt situation and promote developmt. How can you govern a country well?

The subject of history, though seemingly insignificant, is actually of great importance.

By learning from history and emulating the virtues of great past monarchs, one can become a great monarch themselves.

In Arthur's plan, if the grooming of his heir doesn't go well, he may turn Australasia into a constitutional monarchy with some military power before abdicating, rather than an absolute monarchy.

An absolutist state may strgth national cohesion and improve the efficicy of governmt administration. However, it also places strict demands on the monarch and is only suitable for a wise ruler in one geration.

Of course, ev if Arthur reforms the country into a constitutional monarchy, he will leave behind hope and a trump card for later gerations of monarchs to grasp power.

As long as future monarchs have the ability to gain authority from the cabinet governmt, a constitutional monarch can still possess the same level of power as an absolutist ruler.

On the other hand, many emperors in Eastern dynasties, whose power was ev more ctralized than that of an absolute ruler, were still easily sidelined, wer't they?

This represts a truth: capable, trustworthy monarchs will naturally hold a certain level of influce within the governmt.

If a monarch is indiffert to the well-being of the people, ev if they hold extsive power through an absolutist rule, they will still lead the country into the abyss, and the royal family towards oblivion.

However, looking at his two smiling childr, Prince William and Princess Anna Miller, Arthur believes that under his careful cultivation, at least they won't become rulers that would lead to the country's demise.

Following Arthur's speech is the governmt's public work report for the previous year.

This is more or less a tradition of the Australasian governmt, since National Day falls at the beginning of each year, it is also the time wh the cabinet governmt publicly reports its progress from the previous year.

Although the majority of the audice is made up of Australasian citizs, there are still many foreign tourists and media prest.

As such, not all information is publicly reported; aside from the geral growth situation of industrial scale, agricultural growth, education, medical care, policy implemtation, and transportation construction, not much else would be reported.

Since this information has already be reported in detail during cabinet meetings, Arthur has no inttion of listing to it all over again.

Sitting in his seat, Arthur appears to be listing to Prime Minister Kt's report, but his gaze constantly drifts towards Prince William and Princess Anna Miller, his face full of smiles.

The National Day evts lasted several hours, starting at six in the morning and not ding until after t o'clock at night.

Ev after the National Day evts ded, many citizs of Sydney chose to stay.

Because soon after, a movie screing was going to be held in Sydney Square.

Though the movie "Dream of Australasia" hadn't begun, it had be promoted in Australasia for a long time.

Previously, the cost of watching a movie was not cheap, but now it could be watched for free, and it was a film starring Arthur and related to the Australasian ethnicity; this piqued the interest of many people. Ev though the movie would start in a few hours, they still didn't want to leave.

Sydney Palace Square, the largest square in Australia, had prepared t sets of equipmt for movie screings.

Moreover, Arthur would appear in person to watch the movie. To the people of Australasia, watching a movie with Arthur had more value than watching several free movies.

Besides, although the movie would be broadcasted nationwide simulatously, this location would undoubtedly be the first to start. That is why the people of Australasia were reluctant to leave.
