Opening game, American Tycoon

Destroy this system!

Daming has never been for expansion!
And in order to let everyone live a happy and prosperous life and enjoy the changes brought about by the progress of the times.

But under the Caudillo system, this is impossible.

The Caudillo is a unique social system in South America that combines military oligarchs, large estate owners, and state power into one.This system is represented by military oligarchs, united with large landowners, large plantation owners, senior Catholic monks, and large businessmen to form a national ruling group, jointly plunder and occupy social wealth, and jointly implement political slavery and economic exploitation of the lower classes.In some countries, they even control more than 90% of the country's land.

The so-called people are nothing but the tenant farmers who depend on them, and the same is true in Mexico.What is the so-called reform?It is to knock down one group and support another group, just like Da Mao's oligarchs, the purpose of knocking down the oligarchs is to turn themselves and their own people into oligarchs.

In South American countries, it has been half a century since independence until now. A group of Caudillo leaders have been defeated, and countless new Caudillo leaders have stood up.

Under this system, millions of people can only live like slaves. This is South America.

"This is not South America!"

From the day he entered Peru, Gustavo was in extreme shock. He thought he was in an occupied and enslaved country, but in reality?

What he saw has been subverting his perception.So much so that it came to his mind - this is not a South American idea.

Putting down the coffee cup in his hand and looking at his friends from Colombia, Miguel said.

"At one time, we thought that the Ming Empire, as the conquerors, would take away everything. In fact, that's exactly what they did. You know, the first decree issued after they occupied Peru and Bolivia What is it?"

"What is it?"

"The first decree they promulgated is that the ownership of all land and rivers in Peru belongs to the state. The state has the right to grant the land rights it enjoys to private individuals, but the state has the right to expropriate private land at any time based on public use, or Restrict private land rights. The state can also take necessary measures to divide the land of large landowners and distribute them to small landowners. The rights of foreign capital to land, underground resources and mineral deposits in Peru are strictly limited, and the church is not allowed to acquire, Own or manage land."

Lighting a cigarette, Miguel, a university professor, looked at his friends from afar and said.

"Do you know what that means?"

"Is this... the land reform you are talking about?"

"That's right, land reform!"

Miguel said directly.

"From the Spanish colonial era until the Ming Empire took over, almost all the land belonged to a few people - the nobles and military officers in the Spanish era, and the military leaders after independence. What about the people? There is almost no land! And the empire to solve the land The problem of being monopolized by a privileged few, issued this decree, and then confiscated their land according to the decree, and gave the land to ordinary people, and overnight, the tenant farmers who used to rely on the chiefs owned their land.”

When talking about "owning", Miguel's tone became a little excited.

"This is something that has never happened before. In the past, what did we see? After a Caudillo came to power through a coup, he knocked down his opponents, and then distributed their land to his subordinates. The new caudillos are born and what about the sharecroppers? They are still only sharecroppers, in Spanish times they farmed for the Spanish nobles and officers, after independence they farmed for the chiefs of the caudillo, one caudillo failed, Another Caudillo has taken their place, and what are those people thinking? Just trying to squeeze as much money as possible before they get knocked down by the others, my friend, but it's different now!"

When he said "It's different now", in the living room, Miguel waved his hands a little excitedly to emphasize his tone.

"Now, the empire has redistributed all the land, and the land of the big landlords has been divided among ordinary tenant farmers. The era of Caudillo is over, my friend, everything is over!"

Yes, it's all over.

Why did South America experience constant civil strife after independence?
In the final analysis, it is the Caudillo system. Every coup is a reshuffle of wealth. In the coup, a group of Caudillo leaders were knocked down, and a new batch of Caudillo leaders stood up.

In order to facilitate the reshuffle of wealth, there will always be a group of people who try to participate in the coup to become the new leader of Caudillo. After the coup is successful, they suppress the opposition as much as possible while squeezing the people as much as possible.

This is South America!
But now, the Empire has changed all that.

"From now on, there will be no more caudillos, no more ambitious officers, and Peru will enter a new era,"

Facing his friend's excited expression, Gustavo asked.

"And what about Peru?"

"Peru?"

"I mean the Republic of Peru!"

"Republic of Peru?"

Miguel asked,

"Who does the republic belong to? Is it the republic of the Caudillo chiefs? You know, I thought the same way in the past. I think the republic is our choice. We should promote the progress of the republic and let everyone live equally. , even when the empire first occupied Peru, I called for resistance to these invaders, but then they did everything beyond my imagination, they successfully completed a difficult thing. I never thought that one day I would think the empire would be nice too, after all, Spanish rule is not a good thing to speed up. Of course, I am not saying that I am very satisfied with the empire rule, they have no parliament, no constitution, no parliamentarians, but, I think , they will have all of this soon, although it may be a little later, but after all, this is the future, and by then, I think, we will be like them, living happily, happily and richly..."

When Gustavo heard these words, he realized that his friends had changed, not only his friends had changed, but even himself couldn't help talking to himself.

"Like them, I am living a happy, joyful and prosperous life,"

Although his own words were repeated by the other party, Miguel nodded in agreement, then he smiled, stood up, walked to the window, and stared at the street outside the balcony.

"Actually, the empire is deeply changing this land, and I believe that this change is in the interests of the vast majority of people..."
