The Rise of Australasia

Arthur's talt recruitmt campaign wt on for four days. Apart from Alexander Fleming and his mtor Dr. Wright, Arthur also personally visited promint physics and chemistry talts such as Moseley, Joseph Thomson, William Hry Bragg, William Lawrce Bragg, and Charles Gruff Buckley.

In addition to those he visited personally, Arthur's recruitmt list included over a hundred physicists, chemists, m of letters, historians, novelists, artists, composers, scitists, and medical experts, totaling 04 people.

With the efforts of Arthur and Chief David in just four days, 5 people have already agreed to go to Australilarasia.

Meanwhile, nearly 70 more people are noticeably wavering and require a few more days for consideration.

Out of the 04 people, only about 0 are unwilling to leave the British Empire. Arthur has no solution for this, as there are always true patriots in every country.

If all goes well, Australilarasia could gain over 0 talts from the 04, which would be a significant addition to the high-d talt pool in Australilarasia.

It's somewhat regrettable that Arthur's talt recruitmt for the military industry has not be as successful.

However, this is understandable. After all, as the 0th ctury ters its second decade, the contradictions and competition betwe the two major European military blocs become increasingly intse, and the European nations' control and emphasis on military talts are growing.

Under such conditions, it is basically impossible for Arthur to attract many military talts using the same funds and befits as he does for other fields.

On June 5, 9, a piece of exhilarating news for Britain and Australilarasia was jointly announced by the British and Australasian Governmts.

After lgthy fridly consultations betwe the British governmt and Australilarasia, both parties decided to maintain the aid treaty signed at the time, and based on the treaty signed t years ago, to strgth some clauses and add many new supports.

Regarding aid, the British governmt agreed to give more assistance to the Australasian governmt, estimated at no more than million pounds annually, but at least more than sev million pounds.

The aid areas include military industry, geral industry, machinery, and various other fields. Arthur is very interested in France's submarine technology, which has also be included in the aid treaty.

Of course, Australilarasia will not receive these befits for nothing. Britain and Australilarasia have signed a peace treaty; ports in Australian Timor and the New Zealand region are op to the British Empire, allowing British warships and merchant ships to dock as transit ports and supply bases for the British Empire.

Arthur has no problem with this, as there is no reason for him to refuse such requests with the good relations betwe Australilarasia and Britain. The docking of these merchant ships could also stimulate local port consumption, and Arthur is not worried about the safety of these ports after oping them to Britain.

As long as Australilarasia and Britain do not oply confront each other, there is no reason for Britain to take the initiative to attack Australilarasia.

Australilarasia also reached a further trade agreemt with Britain. Australilarasia will officially become Britain's primary source of imported grain and meat.

Arthur does not need to worry that the large increase in food and meat production in Australilarasia will fall into a slump, as the British Empire will act as a safety net and the consumption during the future war will form a double guarantee.

Of course, this trade treaty is not limited to just grain and meat exports from Australilarasia to Britain. It also covers British exports to Australilarasia, including various medical supplies, machinery, more advanced systems, and various talts.

If the British governmt's attitude towards Australilarasia's talt recruitmt during Edward VII's reign was to turn a blind eye and remain neutral, not supporting or opposing it, th during the reign of King George V, at least before World War I, the British governmt supported Australilarasia's talt recruitmt.

This is of great help to Australilarasia's talt recruitmt in Britain, and the number of British immigrants should also see a temporary increase.

King George V of Britain and Arthur are of the same geration, with George being Arthur's cousin.

However, like William II, George V is already 45 years old, a full cycle older than Arthur.

This also means that George V and Arthur do not actually have many topics in common, but this does not prevt them from pretding to be very close brothers in public, ev closer than their actual blood relations.

For Arthur, it is necessary to maintain good relations with Britain, as the most likely winners currtly seem to be the Allies.

It must be remembered that the Allies historically managed to win ev after Russia withdrew halfway through the conflict.

Currtly, though still harboring domestic risks, Russia's situation is much better than in history.

Russia still holds most of the interests in the Far East and is the absolute ruler in the region. The island nation, which was supposed to have ris after the Russo-Japanese War, stagnated due to only gaining interests in the Korean Pinsula at that time and has now become the weakest power.
