Chapter 372 Happy Farming.
As the Hettings Empire and the Ryan Empire successively established diplomatic relations with the Silver Dragon Kingdom.
The other large number of kingdoms in the inner circle, which had been watching coldly before, as well as the other three kingdoms in the core circle, panicked and immediately gave up their previous unanimous boycott policies.
They did this because they really didn't want a overlord to appear and snatch meat from them again.
But now both empires have chosen to give up.
Except for the maritime empire that must choose to maintain severed diplomatic relations.
The losses were too great, and many victims of the scandals suddenly started to revolt, causing the political chaos in the Demon Fish Empire.
Now there is a sense of compromise.
If they continue to be stubborn at this time, won't they be the ones who die?
In this way, Arden's Silver Dragon Kingdom finally gained recognition from other forces in the Chaos Islands.
The Silver Dragon Kingdom, which now rules over three islands and the Twin Islands, a core and important place, which accounts for 1/4 of the total, is undoubtedly the most powerful force in the Chaos Islands!
If Arden can successfully take over the entire Chaos Islands, then at the very least it will be a force comparable to the Finks Federation.
By then, Arden can completely bring the Chaos Islands and even the entire Golden Waterway under his control, and use it as the foundation of his future empire to dominate the entire planet of Modo!
Whenever he thought of this, Arden's blood boiled, and the powerful emotion in his heart constantly stimulated his whole body.
That emotion, that burning emotion that was about to burn Arden's soul and body, was ambition.
The reason why the major empires did not take action against countries like the Finks Federation and Livinia.
There are two very important reasons.
First, there is insufficient force deployed in isolated areas outside the empire.
Every country, especially those old kingdoms that have been passed down for more than a thousand years.
Who knows what strange and bizarre cards they have prepared during these thousand years?
Throughout history, empires have also suffered setbacks due to underestimating a weak kingdom.
The people of the ten empires unanimously believe that all other creatures outside the empire are "indigenous".
But even though they have cutting-edge technology and enormous power, they still sometimes fail.
For an empire to maintain a vast territory and sufficient resources, it needs a lot of legends and power for deterrence and protection.
Their military force is huge, but they have many places to defend.
Otherwise, how can we protect the huge interests we have now?
Without sufficient resources, even the most abundant financial resources will slowly disappear due to the huge military expenditures.
The best they can do is to allocate 20% of the country's military strength to other places.
So everyone is wary of the empire, but outside the borders?
An empire that can only deploy 20% of its strength will also find a way to retreat if it cannot obtain sufficient benefits.
Or they could form alliances with other countries and make profits together.
The Empire is not invincible, which is why forces like the Orcs, the Witches of the North, and other overlords are still able to survive after their decline.
The other planes they rule also need to station large numbers of troops to resist the resistance forces.
The second reason.
Because it’s not worth it.
Unless it is a war that can bring stable benefits, even the most radical Magic Machinery Empire among the ten empires will not rashly start a war.
Everyone is already a member of the table, and the ten major empires are even more firmly on the table. As the world's dominant forces, stabilizing the current order is much more important to them than rashly starting a war.
In this case, as long as one possesses a certain level of military strength and makes certain compromises, even the empire will make some concessions.
-------------------------------------
Three years later.
The original population had exceeded 5000 million.
After taking over the entire Twin Islands with a population of over 100 million, the extremely powerful Silver Dragon Kingdom broke through 200 million.
After the destruction of the Colorful Kingdom, Arden returned to a stable farming life.
Even though the Magical Machinery Empire had promised him only 10% of the shares, the Golden Waterway still brought Arden a lot of incredible wealth. A fixed 10% income every year.
One-fifth of the world's shipping traffic passes through this waterway.
The wealth that each ship can bring is only a very small amount, but when accumulated over time, it is enough wealth to make any force pay attention to it.
Arden originally wanted to support a puppet king as he had discussed with Minister Constantine before.
However, afterwards, Arden thought about it carefully. In order to prevent the resentment towards him now, although he took the initiative to compromise with him, it was only for the survival of the Colorful Royal Family and to escape from his control.
There is no such thing as supporting a puppet king.
Finally, at the suggestion of the devil Sebastian.
Let the current royal family of the Colorful Kingdom, the former old king, and the eldest princess of Tukuma marry herself.
The princess who inherited the throne and crown of the King of the Colorful Kingdom was transferred to the title of Grand Duke. She was kicked out of the capital the day after her wedding.
Gained about 200,000 square kilometers of land.
In comparison, the magnificent scene that once ruled over millions of square kilometers has shrunk by 9/10.
The royal family of the Colorful Kingdom also gained a piece of land where they could continue to live.
And because this grand duchy has always been within the Seven Color Province, Arden has absolute control.
Although it was independent in name, its military power was restricted and it only had the right to collect taxes and administrative powers.
It poses no threat to Arden.
In this way, Arden seized the power and the crown of the princess, and legitimately gained the right to rule the Seven-Colored Kingdom. This method was dirty, but transferring the fiefdom was better than robbing it by force.
It successfully became the fifth largest province, and according to the original requirements, 20% of it was turned into the concession of the Magic Machinery Empire.
This piece of land was chosen by Arden at the border with the Kingdom of Gas.
While blocking the Gas Kingdom's efforts, it also prevented Arden from continuing to expand southwards.
As for the resulting submission to the empire, it caused the nobles within the kingdom to lose morale.
The nobles of the Silver Dragon Kingdom already knew this after witnessing the terrifying attack power of the several empires in the previous war.
Arden was relieved that although they felt fear, it was a fighting spirit aroused by the strong enemy.
Be determined to continue to develop and strive to surpass yourself, rather than completely collapse.
This is a good thing for the entire kingdom.
At least for now, the kingdom is still thriving and has not completely lost the pride in its heart.
-------------------------------------
After the situation was almost settled,
In three years.
The heroic nobles who had made great contributions on the battlefield also took root on the Twin Islands, completely stabilizing Arden's base.
Together with those nobles who saw that things were going badly and took the initiative to surrender to Arden, they formed the foundation of the Seven-Colored Province.
There had been some disturbances due to the previous sweep, civil war, and the invasion by Arden and the Magical Machinery Empire, but the foundations of the Twin Islands and the northern part of the Left Island had not been destroyed.
As they worked hard to build, they also made the island thrive.
After the previous large-scale sweep, Arden also cleared out the parasites that had originally been triggered to stay away from the island.
The northern part of the Twin Islands, whose population is far from reaching its upper limit, is frantically absorbing immigrants. Moreover, because the land and wealth provided by the government are far greater than those of the other three kingdoms, the population is increasing at a rapid rate.
The northern part of the Twin Islands, which can accommodate only 1 million people, is far from reaching its upper limit of population because it is close to the coast and has natural fertile land.
