The thing about surnames, our Celestial Dynasty started from the Han Dynasty, commoners began to have their own surnames, and surnames were no longer exclusive to nobles and people with status.

It's like Chen Sheng, the No. 1 uprising, with a character, a name, a surname, and a character, but what about Liu Bang?From the beginning, he was called Liu Ji, brother, uncle and uncle, and his ranking was named.

Therefore, even though Chen Sheng was born as a farmer for others, he also has his own surname and characters, and belongs to the descendants of a down-and-out nobleman. There are many such things in the process of Qin Dynasty's unification of the world.

Britain, on the other hand, still belonged to the state of tribal alliance before the arrival of William the Conqueror. After William brought the advanced feudal system and surname culture of France, the English nobles really had surnames.

During the Renaissance, religions began to audit believers and required believers to have their own surnames, but there are still a large number of civilians who do not have surnames.

Chinese surnames are generally based on place names, country names, and positions. For example, Sikong is an official position.

Generally speaking, the names of the Japanese are taken from local materials. If they live in the middle of the fields, they are called "Tanaka", if they live at the foot of the mountain, they are called "Yamashita", and if they live by the river, they are called "Watanabe".In China, many people took the place where their ancestors lived as their surname. For example, Ximen Qing’s ancestor lived in Lao Ximen.

Of course, both Chinese and foreign aristocrats always use fiefdoms as their surnames.

British people generally use their job titles as their surnames. For example, the surname Smith, whose ancestors were blacksmiths, thought he was a surname; Taylor, a big American singer, means a tailor; Cook, the president of Apple, means a chef.

"So, what surname should I take?" The newly promoted young Yoman Nunpur was staring at the sky at this time, thinking about it in his heart, and began to think about his family's surname.

Not to be outdone, the other villagers began to think about their own surnames, so at this moment, a mess of surnames came out.

…………

The release of the popular surname has excited people throughout the United Kingdom. Everyone's enthusiasm for the surname is extraordinary.

Riding on this period of naming enthusiasm, the United Kingdom immediately held a population census across the country, including uncensored Scotland, and the newly occupied French regions of Normandy and Brittany.

In a blink of an eye, the time came to the end of 1564, and the French started a new round of civil war.

Other countries, including the United Kingdom, did not interfere any more, and just watched from the sidelines, watching the French fight each other.

The Spaniards are very busy. While suppressing the riots in the Netherlands, they also have to deal with the naval challenges of the Ottoman Empire. They are busy at both ends, and their finances are gradually drying up.

United Kingdom of Great Britain, after more than half a year of population generalization, the results are finally in.

"Your Majesty, at present, the population of England is 360 million, and there are 30 reserve men who meet the requirements for conscription!"

At the end of the year, Prime Minister William Selsey began to make the last round of reporting work, and the expression on his face was quite rich.

Nostalgia, reluctance, regret, and entanglement, unwillingness.

But His Majesty the King swept away the previous lazy movements, sat upright, and listened solemnly.

In order to establish a better mobilization system, His Majesty Edward combined with the ancient military service system left over from England, and began to establish a sound militia military service reserve system throughout the country.

The one-month voluntary service for His Majesty the King every year is gathered in winter to conduct a series of military training to hone their qualities.

Instead of being a soldier like before, you have to coax and arrest strong men.

Not all men can be soldiers.

No night blindness, no disability, no criminal record.

30 is already a lot. These reserve militiamen are all high-quality and experienced militiamen, which are much better than the previous source of troops.

"Scotland has a population of 120 million and a reserve of 20!"

The Scots live more by grazing, and the physique of eating meat is much better than that of the English who eat rye. Just a night blindness, I don’t know how many English people have been wiped out.

Therefore, the Scots, whose population is only one-third of England, have only one hundred thousand fewer reserve troops.

In this regard, His Majesty the King has a clear expression.

In history, the British Empire, where the sun never sets, was established, and the merits of the Scots were no less than that of the English. The Scots in the army accounted for nearly half of the number.

"Wales has a population of 43 and [-] reserve troops."

"Ireland has a population of 80 and [-] reserve troops!"

The real population of Ireland under the rule of the governor is only more than [-], and the rest are self-governing Celtic tribes.

Moreover, many of the population under the governor's jurisdiction were immigrated by criminals and have no criminal records. I don't know how many people have been recruited. The reserve can reach [-], which is already remarkable.

"The Normandy region has a population of 130 million and a reserve of [-]."

"The Brittany region has a population of 68 and [-] reserve troops!"

"The total controlled population of the United Kingdom is 69 million, and the reserve is [-]."

At the end, His Excellency the Prime Minister was very moved. This number is astonishing and unbelievable.

This is the case with His Majesty Edward. He estimated in his heart that the total population is about 700 million. How come there are nearly one million more people suddenly? It is too surprising.

Before the king could ask a question, His Excellency the Prime Minister immediately spoke and explained:
"After this detailed population registration in the Scottish region, a large number of civilians sheltered by the nobles emerged, and this time the highlanders were also added to the registration list, which led to rapid population growth!"

"More importantly, a large number of Protestants from the Netherlands, as well as Protestants who escaped religious persecution in Spain, migrated to live in England, resulting in a population increase of more than [-]. These are elites with money in their pockets .”

With this explanation, His Majesty the King suddenly realized that it was all because of the war.

When the war came, ordinary people could only stay at home and wait to be slaughtered, but the rich and nobles did not wait to die, and quickly migrated to Protestant areas.

Compared with the chaotic German region, England, which has always been stable and peaceful, has become their first choice.

"In this way, the quality of the immigrants is very good. They are all relatively rich, and the poor have no money to buy tickets!"

His Majesty the King stroked his stubbled chin, thinking.

These high-quality immigrants are the most popular in the United Kingdom. They are rich and skilled, and they can play an important role in promoting the development of the United Kingdom.

At this moment, Edward realized that his United Kingdom was so similar to the United States of later generations, with a developed economy, a stable society, and a good political atmosphere, it was simply the best place for immigrants.

"Then, it is very important to manage immigration well, and the Immigration Bureau should be established!"
