The Rise of Australasia

As time entered May, the public exhibition of the white reindeer, Little White, officially began.

As one of the few wild white reindeer, Little White was treated like a national treasure at the Sydney Royal Zoo.

Zoo staff took special care of his food and drink, for fear of any issues with Little White.

He was fed specially harvested fresh green grass, tender branches, and leaves. He drank water from a flowing river, which was diverted to ensure a clean water source.

The ticket sales at the Sydney Royal Zoo have been a hot topic recently.

Many people requested advance sales to avoid the hard work of visiting the zoo, not being able to see Little White, and possibly missing the opportunity to see him the next time.

As a result, the Sydney Royal Zoo allowed ticket pre-sales, causing even more craze for buying tickets.

Perhaps because white reindeer are a rare sight, crowds have flocked to Sydney, making the already crowded city even more congested.

Not only the citizens of Sydney but also visitors from all over the country, and even the world, came to the city, contributing to Sydney's bustling atmosphere.

However, this has caused Sydney's GDP to grow even faster. Since last year's Sydney Olympics, the tourism industry has become a major economic pillar industry for Australasia, especially in cities near Sydney and Melbourne.

Due to the southeastern region of Australia being the core part of Australasia, this area attracts the most tourists.

This has led to the growth of two large cities with populations of millions, as well as the trend of city clusters emerging in southeastern Australia.

In order to limit the current wave of pre-purchasing tickets at the Sydney Royal Zoo, the Royal Zoo has issued a regulation, allowing pre-sales of tickets only up to three days in advance.

If not for this restriction, out-of-town visitors to the Sydney Royal Zoo would face tickets being sold out within a month or two, and even having to queue for tickets available two months later.

However, this has caused the income from the Royal Zoo's ticket sales to soar. Previously, daily ticket fees only reached a peak of several thousand Australian dollars.

Now the ticket revenue can easily exceed 10,000 Australian dollars, and the Sydney Royal Zoo has the potential to become profitable.

However, this is only temporary.

With Butler Kent purchasing more rare wild animals from around the world, the daily operating costs of the Sydney Royal Zoo will also rise.

It is important to know that every precious wild animal has its own unique living environment.

Especially rare animals from all over the world, their requirements for living conditions are not only demanding but also vary greatly between species.

Even just setting up their living environments is enough to put the Royal Zoo into a prolonged deficit.

Fortunately, the Royal Zoo is, after all, the property of the royal financial group. With the backing of the wealthy royal financial group, these expenses are just small numbers.

With the smooth display of the white reindeer at the Royal Zoo, various reports on the white reindeer have been eagerly covered by major media outlets around the world.

Yes, although it has only been a few days, the capture of the white reindeer is definitely big news, so foreign media can't help but spend thousands of pounds on airship tickets, bringing their cameras and equipment to visit Australasia.

Luckily, Australasia is the originator of airship global voyages and one of the earliest countries to establish the airship aviation company and initiate global aviation services.

In addition, Australasia's airship technology leads the world, so when other countries' airship companies plan their global routes, they also consider stopping at Australasia.

This allows for better maintenance and repair of airships in Australasia, as these techniques have not yet been properly mastered by other countries' airship companies.

Especially when major problems occur, airships can only be sent to Australasia for maintenance, making global flights indispensable for Australasia's participation.

Don't underestimate the stopping points of global voyages, which are usually chosen from large cities and capitals around the world. This allows large capitalists and nobility to travel, and they are also the primary customers for airships.

Because of Little White, there have been considerably more tourists in Australasia than before, which has also had some impact on the urban security of Sydney.

However, this is not a concern for Arthur at the moment, because shortly after Little White entered the Royal Zoo, the global situation became chaotic again.

The London Agreement signed half a year ago was ultimately torn apart by the Balkan League that signed it.

The Balkan Alliance, which had originally united against the Ottoman Turkish Empire, eventually divided into two camps due to uneven distribution of benefits.

Of course, one of the camps consisted only of Bulgaria, as it had gained the most from the previous Balkan War.

Moreover, the Kingdom of Romania joined the other camp, turning the Balkan situation into a joint confrontation against Bulgaria, also known as the Anti-Bulgarian Alliance.

In theory, Bulgaria should have been the weaker side facing several enemies and should have tried to avoid war or seek help from outsiders.

In fact, Bulgaria did just that. The main countries of the Anti-Bulgarian Alliance, Serbia and Russia, were on good terms, and Russia was one of the four Great Powers of the Allies.
