On November 6, 1936, Wilhelmshaven, located along the Gulf of Adria, North Sea, had turned into a sea of ​​red 1000-character flags.☆→☆→, various 1000-character flags, some long and hung from high places; some were in normal shapes, hanging on flagpoles, fluttering in the wind; some were made into the shape of Roman eagle flags, raised high by soldiers in full military uniforms; some were small paper flags, held in their hands by countless citizens who came to welcome the return of His Majesty the Emperor.

Yes, it is the 1000-character flag instead of the black, white and red tricolor flag of the Second Empire! The 1000-character flag is now a flag symbolizing the German Empire. This is a decision made by the Imperial Parliament to distinguish between the Second Empire and the Third Empire.

"Ludwig, is this flag of the National Socialist Workers' Party?" William II stood on the deck of the "Germany", looking at the ocean of 10,000 flags on the pier.

"Your Majesty, this is the flag of national socialism," Hessman explained. "The 'x' shape is formed by the intersection of two 's'.'s' is the first letter of the 'country' and 'social'. The black 'x' symbol, the white center and the red of the rest of the flag, are derived from the red, white and black tricolor flags. They symbolize that the German Empire was reborn under the banner of national socialism."

What Hessman is talking about now is the standard explanation, which is what the Flag Law, which just passed by Congress, said.

"National socialism...how is it different from dynastic socialism?" William II asked again.

"National socialism is also national socialism. In the constitution that is about to be formulated, the basic principle of 'one country, one nation, one belief, one leader' will be put forward." Hessman said very slowly, as if he was considering the words.

He said: "National socialism will become the guiding ideology of the German and German nations, which means that the interests of the state and nation are above everything else, and individuals can enjoy freedom and social welfare only if they are in line with the interests of the state and nation."

This is actually something very...it seems very terrifying by the value standards of later generations. It places the country and nation above personal freedom, positions nationalism as political correctness and opposes globalism and internationalism, and turns a monoculture a country, a nation, a belief, and a leader into mainstream values ​​and throws diversity into the trash can.

William II thought about it and asked again: "What a country and a nation means..."

"Germany will be an inseparable whole, and the German people who own this country are the Aryan race."

"Only... the German nation?"

"Yes!" said Hessman, "Only the German nation! All non-Germans living in the German Empire cannot obtain citizenship. To become German citizens, in addition to having appearance and language requirements, they must also believe in Christian Protestantism or Roman Catholicism."

“No freedom of religious belief?”

"Not at all," Hessmann focused on it, "Judaism or YSL religions can live and work in the empire as foreigners. However, they cannot be naturalized and enjoy the welfare of national socialism."

The basic principle of "a kind of faith" was proposed by the Army Policy under Hessman. It is to believe in Christ. As for Catholicism, Orthodoxism, and Protestantism, there are no specific regulations. Of course, if you do not believe in Christ, you will not be sent to concentration camps. Instead, you cannot be naturalized and enjoy various benefits of national socialism.

In addition, under the request of the German Wehrmacht, a more precise definition of the German nation was also given to the white people who spoke German and believed in Christ. This relatively loose standard was naturally to continuously expand the ethnic group of the German nation.

"What does a leader mean?" When the German emperor asked a question, he guessed that he could not be a "leader", at most a symbol. "Is it Adolf Hitler?"

Adolf Hitler was called fuhrer since he became the leader of the Nazi Party in the 1920s. It is translated into Chinese as "leader", but for some reason, the Chinese translated Hitler's title into the word "head of the head" and "head of the head" and the word "head of the head" originated in Rome, meaning "the chief senator of the Senate".

However, this has nothing to do with the Germans. Hitler has always been a "leader". After becoming the Prime Minister of the Empire, his most formal title was "leader and Prime Minister of the Empire", and the same was true in history.

"Your Majesty, a leader means the Prime Minister of the Empire," Hessman explained. "The official name of the Prime Minister will be 'Leader and Prime Minister of the Empire'. The Prime Minister will have considerable power, and the government will obtain equal power as parliament, but the military command will still be under His Majesty."

The Third Reich Constitution is being formulated. Of course, it is also the result of a power game between all parties. Hitler and the National Socialist Workers' Party agreed that restoration of the imperial system would not be a costly prime minister of the empire, not a parliamentary election. Therefore, the parliament can no longer be above the government, and the emperor cannot govern the country with "emergency authorization" like the original president.

In other words, the "leader and prime minister of the empire" will be an existence similar to the US president. However, the Junker Army Corps still sticks to the bottom line.

The first is that the Minister of Defense and Deputy Minister must be held by active-duty officers. The appointment must be approved by the "Commander of the Three Armies", that is, His Majesty the Emperor.

The second is that the Military Intelligence Bureau and Stasi will be reorganized into the Imperial Central Security Bureau. It will be jointly governed by the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff. Official members of the Imperial Central Security Bureau must be active-duty soldiers.

"So how to solve the problem of the Kingdom of Bohemia?"

When the German armored ship approached the dock, William II turned the topic to Bohemia. He is now the king of Bohemia and Boro.

"There are many non-German people in this country?" the emperor said with some concern. "How do we treat them?"

"Assimilation!" Hessman said firmly, "national socialism does not engage in diversified countries."

At this time, he raised his right arm and performed "Germany ceremony" to the crowd who began to cheer on the dock. The principle of de-partyization of the army remains, but national socialist thought will be the soul of the German team, so "Germany ceremony" will also replace military ceremony in history. It was not until after the assassination of Hitler in 1944 that "Germany ceremony" would replace military ceremony.

"Your Majesty, according to the new Empire Constitution, the empire will implement a close federal system. First, the existing administrative regions of Germany will be re-divided and sorted out. The 'states' left over from the Second Empire will be merged into 'Germany'. The Kingdom of Austria and the Boro will also be transformed into 'states'. The German state, Austria and the Boro states will form an empire, and the Bohemia will become a protector of Germany."

The unity of Germany has been further strengthened in its institutional context. "States" such as the Prussian Free State and the Bavarian Free State will soon cease to exist. In Germany, a "Germany State" that does not have an independent government and parliament is almost virtual, will be 20 states.

Austria and Polo states will also be composed of states. As long as the people of these two states meet the three conditions of "white people, speak German, and believe in Christ", they will automatically become imperial citizens and enjoy all the benefits of national socialism.

But the situation in the Bohemia Kingdom is different because the population that speaks German and recognizes the German people does not account for the majority.

"Protection nation?" said Emperor William, "sounds like a colony."

Hessman smiled, "We don't care what others think."

He said coldly: "Because their view is wrong, the majority do not have to accommodate the minority, but should integrate the minority into the majority, which is the real protection. The protectorate plays this role. Under our protection and guidance, they will become part of us. In the Bohemia Protectorate, the Germans will become imperial citizens, while the Czechs are preparatory citizens, passing the German language exam, and swearing allegiance to His Majesty and the Empire, and without any bad records in the General Administration of Defense, they can become Germans. When the Germans account for two-thirds, the protectorate will become states."

The Bohemia Kingdom now does not include the entire Czechoslovakia, but only includes the vast majority of the original Bohemia and Moravian provinces. The rest, the Chesin region and Carpathian Ukraine are preparing to hand over to Poland, and negotiations are underway. The Fervidike has given to Hungary.

Slovakia would become an independent country "protected" by Germany. It was too poor and the Germans looked down upon it. In the 1930s, the Czech Republic was a developed area similar to Switzerland, while Slovakia was just a poor and remote mountainous area.

However, this "mountain area" is not without hope. Three million people (including nearly 2 million Slovaks) occupy nearly 40,000 square kilometers, and is rich in forest and water resources. As long as necessary investment and development are carried out, it can still be built.

So it will be a matter of time before Slovakia becomes a "Slovak State".

Emperor William looked at the "ocean of the 10,000-character flag" and asked with some concern: "From occupation to protecting countries and then to states, this method will be used in many countries in the future, right?"

"It depends on the situation," Hessman took a breath and nodded, "Europe needs a leader so that they can truly unite, and this leader can only be Germany. In the process of becoming European leaders, it is inevitable to merge some countries."

"A world war is inevitable, too?" said Emperor William.
