Ottawa, capital of Canada

The Canadian Autonomous Government Parliament is engaged in a fierce quarrel. The aftermath of the defeat of the war is coming. The resolution of the Sofia Peace Conference is very bad for them.

Although Canada has declared independence from the Commonwealth, in this war, the Canadian Autonomous Government sent troops to South Africa and pilots to the British Isles.

These have become the reason for the Holy Alliance to hold them accountable for war.

"quiet!"

"quiet!"

The voice of Speaker Peter Cole sounded, and the MP finally quieted.

"You all know the resolutions of the Sofia Peace Conference, MPs, and Bulgaria has brought us a territorial claim.

After protests from the delegation, the Bulgarians agreed to renounce territorial claims on the Labrador Peninsula and Newfoundland.

But they still remember the Queen Elizabeth Islands, Parry Islands, Baffin Island, Victoria Island, Southampton Island, Queen Charlotte Islands ...

Last night, the Bulgarian government issued an ultimatum, either to cede the aforementioned islands or pay 50 billion levs in war compensation, and they gave up territorial claims! "

There is a third way, but Peter Cole did not say it, then continue the war.

Obviously, it is impossible to continue the fight. However, Canada has sent people to Japan to conduct field inspections. The materials brought back are still trembling.

"What? 50 billion levs, why didn't they grab it?" A councilman growled immediately.

Canada's current population is only in its early 10s, which means that each person has to bear a huge debt of nearly 5,000 levs, which is the gross national product of the Canadian Dominion for two years.

The Canadian government's current financial revenues are not enough to pay the interest of 50 billion levs. They are willing to give money, but they can't afford it.

Don't think this is over, the problem is that these 50 billion are not all the war compensation. The British Commonwealth was defeated this time, and all the self-governing territories will share their debts with the homeland, even if they are independent.

Although the specific amount is still under discussion, the wind has spread, and the Canadian Dominion will have to work hard to repay its debt in the coming decades.

"Grab, how easy is that? Even if all our cities are ransacked, it is impossible to rob 50 billion levs!" Another member of parliament mocked.

"This gives us no choice at all. It is indeed the descendants of polar bears that have inherited their greed!"

"Since they want the land, give them, anyway, it's a barren field, we decided we can't accept their blackmail!"

...

Everyone was talking nonchalantly, no one could come up with a solution.

"quiet!"

"It is time to decide on the fate of Canada. Every Member is invited to cast a sacred vote, this time by secret ballot.

Pick up your pen and write down the answer in your mind, whether to cut the land, pay compensation, or fight another battle with the Holy Alliance! Peter Cole said seriously

There is no way. The newly independent Canadian government does not yet have a strong central government.

The interim government changed the vest of the autonomous government. In order not to become a war criminal, high-level officials went to Sofia.

The current vote is undoubtedly the responsibility of parliament to cede territory.

Don't look at everyone being fierce. In fact, many people are relieved in their hearts. The most fear is that there is no result, which means that the Holy Alliance will directly turn Canada into a colony.

Now it is necessary to cede some of the islands in the Arctic Ocean. They have no pain. These regions belong to Canada in name only. In fact, they have never really ruled.

In the midst of chaos, on September 24, 1941, the Canadian Parliament voted to agree to Bulgaria's territorial claims.

...

"His Majesty, the Canadians have agreed to all our requirements, but Austria is in trouble, and now they are just a Japanese colony!" Coleman said in distress.

The Japanese government has surrendered, but the territorial transfer is still ongoing, and the Holy Alliance has not had time to take over Australia.

Australia's status is now very embarrassing. Once they belonged to the Commonwealth and belonged to the defeated country.

During the war, the British ceded Australia to the Japanese and belonged to the Japanese colony. It is the Japanese colonial government or the defeated country that now rules Australia.

At present, there are two governments in Australia. One is the former autonomous government of Australia. At present, it is shrinking to fight guerrillas in the outback and the other is the Japanese colonial government.

Everyone is busy with the Sofia Peace Conference and has yet to locate Australia. Their legality is still unknown. Even when negotiating with Austria, the Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs does not know who to look for.

According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, that is to recognize the Japanese colonial government, and then treat it as the spoils of the Holy Alliance and directly annex it.

"Did the former Austrian Autonomous Government come to the meeting?" Ferdinand Jr. asked with concern.

If no representatives are sent, they can be ignored.

"His Majesty, the former Australian Autonomous Government also sent a delegation because their status is unknown at this time and has not yet been accepted by the Holy Alliance!" Coleman thought for a while and said

"Damn!" Ferdinand Little rubbed his forehead

"Your Majesty, in fact, you don't need to worry about this, as long as the Austrian Autonomous Government does not exist, then we don't have to worry about it!" Coleman whispered.

Ferdinand Jr.'s eyes brightened, yes, as long as this Australian autonomous government does not exist, then Australia is a complete colony.

"It's up to you to handle this matter, and to resolve all the resistance forces as much as possible, I will order the coalition to delay the time to take over Australia!" Ferdinand Shen said in a low voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Coleman replied calmly.

They didn't know it was this decision that caused the Australian tragedy that caused a sensation in the world, and millions of Austrians were killed.

"Your Majesty, our colonies were too scattered after the war. If we want to integrate them in the future, we need to make adjustments. The Cabinet decided to replace some colonies in Africa with Portugal, Belgium, and France!" Ki said

"How to exchange, what if they do not agree?" Ferdinand Little asked with concern.

Concentrating the colonies is definitely a good thing. This will reduce the difficulty of governing and save administrative costs.

"Your Majesty, we can trade Liberia and Ghana for Portuguese Mozambique, support Belgium for Malaysia, exchange for their colonies in Africa, and Nigeria for French Madagascar!

If they don't agree with the land transaction, we can use the money to buy the above areas, and presumably not much money! "Torski said with confidence.

Ferdinand Jr. opened the map and looked at it carefully. Once these land deal cases were reached, the dividing line between Libya, Chad, and Cameroon was the French colony.

"Okay, the government is going to promote this plan, presumably they will not reject our kindness!" Ferdinand Little said for a while, pondering

It is high time in Bulgaria that no one is willing to oppose them as long as their interests are not harmed.

This colony deal, economically speaking, they did not suffer. From a strategic point of view, after the colonial exchange, direct conflict with Bulgaria can be avoided, and no one can refuse it.

...

On December 2, 1941, the Sofia Peace Conference finally came to an end. France, West Russia, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire divided up the Indian region. The Spaniards acquired Myanmar, the Belgians acquired Malaysia, and Finland took Guiana.

The remaining European countries can only play soy sauce. Active treatment and passive treatment are completely different. In this regard, Ferdinand Little is very clear.

In the later period, they were forced to join Switzerland, Portugal, Denmark, Norway and other countries. Except that they could share a little war compensation, the colonies had nothing to do with them.

The formerly occupied Poland, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ are naturally not qualified to divide up the spoils. Belgium had to play soy sauce, but it was only Malaysia that compensated it for its transactions with Bulgaria.

For the next war compensation, the amount of compensation calculated in advance will not be changed, but considering the actual situation, the defeated country cannot afford to pay so much money, and the compensation method is changed.

Within one hundred years after the war, Britain, Germany, and Japan would each pay 18.3% of their fiscal revenue as war compensation and pay it to the victors.

The distribution ratio of this money is also different. For example, the Germans' compensation is mainly divided by France, Western Russia, and Austria-Hungary, and Belgium, the Netherlands, Poland, and Luxembourg also need to receive a portion.

Bulgaria only symbolically draws a point from this war compensation, because the Bulgarian air force has participated in the war against Germany, which is the booty they deserve.

Another example is that the British people's compensation is mainly obtained by Bulgaria, Spain, and France. Other countries that have sent pilots to the war can also get a share, of which Bulgaria has the largest share.

The other defeated nations will be treated in the same way. According to the actual situation, allies that have not participated in the war will naturally have no war compensation.

The group of defeated nations in the Americas struggled at the peace conference in Sofia. In the end, they still had to pay 5% of their financial income as war compensation. They gave them a lesson with the facts.

Of course, if the national governments pay off the total amount of war compensation in advance within a hundred years, it will end early.

However, in consideration of war reparations, interest is also calculated. Unless the economies of post-war countries are open, it is difficult for them to pay off their debts in advance.

Similarly, if countries have not paid off their debts for a hundred years, the remaining war compensation will be wiped out when the time comes.
