Holy Roman Empire

While flickering the Paris government, the Austrian Foreign Ministry naturally will not forget the London government, and the British Empire was still awesome in this era.

As the only industrial country in the world today, it is time for them to be arrogant. Fortunately, the British mainland is small and restricts population growth, otherwise there will be no latecomers.

In the Great Revolution of 1848, the British also could not avoid it, but compared with France, Austria and other countries, they were all pediatrics.

The revolutionaries of Zhidacaishu, before they broke out, were suppressed by the police uncles. Finally, after several strikes, it was over.

Franz knew that the Sardinian war was actually planned by the British, and long before the Kingdom of Sardinia sent troops, British Foreign Minister Palmerston began lobbying King Charles-Albert.

In this context, Austria's diplomatic activities in London are naturally impossible to achieve results.

Moreover, the credibility of the British people is really not reassuring, as long as the interests need to change their position at any time.

Fortunately, Franz did not expect to receive British support. Ambassador Humelauer's purpose was simple: to lobby pro-Austrian MPs to prevent the London government from providing substantial support to the Kingdom of Sardinia.

Downing street

Prime Minister John Russell is thinking about the current world situation. First of all, the French issue. The interim government just established has diplomatically expressed goodwill to the British Empire. He still hesitates to accept it.

The Vienna system has collapsed. How should the future European political structure be established?

Don't look at the British diplomacy playing very well. Before the collapse of the Vienna system, John Russell didn't feel anything, but now it really collapses, he feels a headache.

Under the Vienna system, European nations have remained evenly matched, and the British can rest assured that they will expand their territories overseas.

"His Excellency, according to the current situation, we can continue the previous strategic conception and establish a unified Italian dynasty, weakening Austria's strength, while preventing the French from expanding into Italy!" Foreign Minister Palmerston proposed

John Russell frowned and said, "Mr. Palmerston, this is the ideal state. In fact, for the balance of power in European countries, we also need Austria.

The internal contradictions in Austria are now so many that they might disintegrate. Without restrictions, the Habsburgs will return to the German region.

Now the unification of the German region is very high. With the reputation of the Habsburgs, it is likely to unify the German region. "

In Europe of descent theory, John Russell was not unfounded. Once Austria disintegrated, the return of the remaining Austrian states to Germany became almost inevitable.

In this case, it is really possible for the Habsburgs to unify Germany. Conquering the world with your lower body is no joke.

Even if the Habsburgs did not unite Germany, would it be the same for Prussians? The emergence of a unified Great German Empire was not a good thing for the British.

Franz also considered whether to give up Hungary and Italy and return to form the German Empire. But after careful analysis, he gave up the temptation decisively.

It is easy to unify the German region, but what about internal contradictions? At least he had no way to subdue the Prussians. The Catholic Church of South Germany and the Protestant Church of North Germany were distinct.

Historically, this problem has not been solved by the Germans, and the Second Empire has been contradictory since its establishment.

That's just small Germany. If a large Germany is established, this contradiction will be even more horrible. North and South Germany will be evenly matched, and internal friction will cause people to collapse.

Looking at the map again, the strategic location of the German region is really a huge pit.

Even if Franz is confident, he doesn't think he can beat France, kick Russia, and shoot English with a constant consumption.

Unifying the German region without giving up the Austrian empire, Franz said that it was a dream, and you can refer to the case of Napoleon singled out the major European powers.

Otherwise, there is no need to wait for him, after the end of the anti-French war, it is the best time for Austria to unify Germany.

There is no doubt that smart people are not just Franz, Metternich resisted the temptation, established the Vienna system, and did not go to death to unify Germany.

A thousand birds in the forest is worse than a bird in hand.

Integrating the current Austrian empire, in fact, the overall national strength is not much worse than the unified German region. Then slowly work hard to develop, waiting for time is king.

If you advance, you will race against the European continent and rebuild the Holy Roman Empire;

"The situation in Austria may not be as severe as we think. The Vienna Revolution has been suppressed. Although unstable elsewhere, there have been no major outbreaks.

In order for the European Revolution to spread to Russia, the Tsarist government must support Austria. Together with our support, even if the Hungarian rebellion breaks out, it will be suppressed quickly!

Moreover, we do not need the Kingdom of Sardinia to completely defeat Austria. We can mediate when necessary. As long as the French are not sent to support the Kingdom of Sardinia, the situation is under our control. Palmerston thought about it and said

John Russell asked: "It is not difficult to mediate the Osa war. How are you going to respond to the Austrians? If we cannot get support here, they will ask the Russians for help.

The Russians will not give up this opportunity. Once Russia and Austria reach an agreement, no one in the Near East can balance them. "

The mainstream contradiction in today's world is the contradiction between Britain and Russia. The Russian Empire has become one of the greatest enemies of the British by virtue of its powerful strength.

Austria is the greatest force to check and balance the Russian expansion in the Near East. If the Austrians now rescue the Russians, it is inevitable to give up some of the interests of the Balkans.

The British did not want the Russians to enter the Mediterranean. In the history, the Crimean War broke out, and Britain and France joined forces to block the Russians back.

"It doesn't matter, we don't need to respond directly to the Austrians, give them some ambiguous hints, and let them think we are in Austria.

The Kingdom of Sardinia needs their own efforts to unify Italy. We only provide limited support. It is best to succeed, and failure will not affect us.

It is also a good choice for France and Austria to restrain each other. The British Empire ’s diplomacy cannot be hanged on a tree! Palmerston sneered
