Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

Chapter 199: The American Cultural Power Edition

Seeing Manuel II leaving with excitement on his face, Alfonso shook his head to himself and turned to look at Chirac, "Tell me, am I really doing the right thing by doing this?" Already?"

"I don't know if this is right, but I know that this should be a very happy thing for Princess Teresa, because she has gained your support. This is enough."

Is that enough? Alfonso narrowed his eyes. Just when Chirac thought he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly opened his eyes.

"No, this is absolutely not enough. I want to give her a beautiful wedding, not a hurried wedding like Mercedes, the Spanish princess, did to the Spanish royal princess in the Two Sicilies. There are already piles of places there. Hum, although Teresa is six years older than Manuel II, but since they are in love, then the people in the world should give them more It’s a blessing. Let’s settle this matter like this.”

"Your Majesty, Mohammed V of the Ottoman Empire is visiting"[

On this day, all the media in Denmark were staring at the doors of the residences of the kings of major countries, waiting to record the itineraries of all the kings in various countries today, so as to obtain more materials for the next front page.

Among them, there is the trio of the Los Angeles Times, a California newspaper, including Rafa, Zur, and Tyson.

"How about it? Today we filmed how many kings of countries came to visit Alfonso XIII."

Rafa looked at the time. It was now 11 o'clock on the second lap of today's watch. He turned his head and asked the cameraman Zul. Like many colleagues, many people today are targeting the king of a big country. For example, the three major American newspapers. This time, the New York Times is focusing on the British King Edward VII, while the Chicago Times is focusing on William II, and their "Los Angeles Times" focused on this, Alfonso XIII of Spain.

Asked why all the kings in all countries send people to their doorsteps? It's very simple. There are not enough manpower. The reason why the three major media have different priorities is mainly because New York, where the New York Times is located, has the most British people. If readers there ask them to choose, when they are all reporting people, they will naturally choose. Choose a newspaper that writes about King Edward VII of England instead of a newspaper about King Alfonso XIII of Spain.

By the same token, most of the south and west are Spanish or areas where Spanish speakers are deeply influenced by Spanish culture, especially the states bordering Mexico. Seriously speaking, Spain is the most influential. The states include Texas, California, New Mexico, Arizona, and Colorado. Most of these states belonged to Mexico after Mexico became independent. Later, various forms of bullying, buying, and robbery were used in the United States. Mexico did not become a territory of the United States until 1810, and Mexico became independent only in 1810. In other words, it was only a hundred years ago, and the culture here is still Spanish as the main language and English as the secondary language.

In fact, many people will ask why the United Kingdom did not directly obliterate the United States when it was weak. According to many people, it is said that it was dismissive, or that it turned its attention to Europe. However, many people also said , in fact, it is because the leaders of the United States are actually dominated by British culture and white British people. The British royal family and government are happy to let the United States spread British culture to the world to suppress French and Spanish culture. Among them, The reason why the British did not stop the expansion of the United States territorial territory in North America from the west to the south was to allow the English-speaking United States to invade these later French-speaking and Spanish-speaking areas.

The areas where Spain and France competed that year included Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas and Colorado. These are the spheres of influence shared by Spain and France, while Spain and the United Kingdom in the north mainly compete in the states of Oregon, Nevada, and Utah. It can be said that these are the places where Spanish is prevalent and can be regarded as Spanish culture. Popular geographies, which are where the Los Angeles Times primarily serves. Of course, it refers to counting by region.

The Chicago Times is in the French-speaking area of ​​the central United States, while some states in the east and near Canada are in the English-speaking area. These are the spheres of influence of the New York Times.

If you connect this again, you may think of a very memorable event of the American Civil War. The American government claimed that the cause of the Civil War was the conflict between the southern plantation economy and the northern capitalist economy.

At that time, most of the black slaves were sent to the South of the United States and demanded independence. So after Lincoln was elected president, he got into a lawsuit!
