Chapter 115: The confidence of a civilized country.
What is a "civilized country"?
In fact, it is not difficult to understand.
It refers to an ancient civilization that stretches continuously for thousands of years, and a country that almost completely overlaps with a super-large modern country.
The Dragon Kingdom has a continuous ancient civilization, and it is a contemporary sovereign state, and this ancient civilization coincides completely with the sovereign state.
In today's world, only the Dragon Kingdom has such dual attributes.
Longguo is already a "civilized country" that integrates "nation-state" and "civilized country" and combines the strengths of both.
A "civilized country" has eight characteristics:
1. Super large population size
Population pressure is a huge challenge facing the Dragon Kingdom, but also a huge opportunity for the Dragon Kingdom.
People in the industry know that if you are the biggest in the Dragon Kingdom, you may be the biggest in the world. If the sea is wide enough for fish to leap, for the sky to be high enough for birds to fly, any miracle can be created.
2. Ultra-broad territory
In general countries, labor-intensive industries move out of the coast as soon as the wages of labor increase.
But in Long 07, the country is transferred to the inland, and the foundation of the inland is also very good, so now the inland is repeating the growth miracle of the coastal areas in the past 20 years.
3. A long history and tradition
The role of the government of the Dragon Kingdom in the economy can be traced back thousands of years, to the "On Salt and Iron" in the Western Han Dynasty, the government's taxation of iron and salt, and even to Yin Yu's water control in the heavy dynasty.
Our people's expectation of the government is different from that of the general western countries. The government has played an important role in the economy since ancient times.
4. Super profound cultural accumulation
The richness of Longguo culture is rare in the world. There are eight major cuisines in Longguo.
Any one of the eight major cuisines is richer than French cuisine, because the eight major cuisines are the product of "the sum of a hundred countries", while French cuisine is mainly the product of one country, France.
5. Unique language
Kissinger said in the book "On the Kingdom of Dragons" that the language used by the people of the Dragon Kingdom was extended from oracle bone inscriptions 3,500 years ago, more than 1,000 years earlier than the ancient Greek city-state republic, and more than 1,500 years earlier than the ancient Roman Empire Word.
The structure of this text is basically the same until now.
On the whole, the superiority of the Dragon Kingdom, the perfection and excellence of this political system are completely unmatched by other countries.
Longguo has a strategic national government, a competitive local government, and competitive enterprises. The combination of these three forms a three-dimensional economy, or a mixed economy.
The government can carry out medium and long-term planning.
With the stability and continuation of the regime, the Dragon Kingdom does not have to worry at all. A plan cannot be implemented for a long time. We can spend five years, ten years, or even longer to complete a long-term plan.
Regarding economic development, we don't have to worry about it for a while. We have enough time and patience to wait for the watered flowers to bloom slowly.
Long plans can be made.
The most important thing is the word "civilization" in the concept of "civilized country", which refers to the original ancient civilization of human beings, that is, the four ancient civilizations in the world: Mesopotamia civilization, ancient Egyptian civilization, ancient white elephant civilization and ancient civilization. Dragon country civilization.
Among the four ancient civilizations, the other three civilizations have long been wiped out. Only the Dragon Kingdom civilization continues, and in this new era, it is constantly developing and emitting the light of civilization.
When we say that the Dragon Kingdom is the only "civilized country" in the world, it may not only be because the Dragon Kingdom is the only one of the four ancient civilizations in the world, but there are also other reasons. This is the spatial overlap between civilizations and countries. , which is a key to further understand the "civilized country".
In human history, the emergence of a country is generally considered to be an important symbol of the formation of civilization (the other symbols include metal tools, writing, urban centers, etc.), so the emergence of civilization and the emergence of the country are almost synchronized in time.
However, the spatial distribution of civilizations and countries does not necessarily coincide.
Usually, the scope of civilization is large and vague, while the boundaries of countries are more specific.
In many cases, the same civilization contains several countries.
For example, the ancient Greek civilization covered more than half of the coasts and islands of the Mediterranean Sea. Among them, there were hundreds of ancient Greek city-states. There was an ancient Greek civilization circle in the world, but there was no unified ancient Greek country corresponding to this civilization circle. Only Athens existed. , Sparta and a series of different ancient Greek countries.
Although the Alexander Empire in late Greece ruled the world, it only existed for thirteen years, and it never recovered after its collapse.
There are many such examples. The Mesopotamian civilization in the Mesopotamia Plain has more than one country. The Germanic civilization formed in the fifth century AD and the Arab civilization formed in the seventh century both included different countries. The extension of the concept of civilization is greater than the country.
However, the Dragon Kingdom is unique among the major civilizations in the world.
In the late Shang Dynasty, the tribal "Fang Kingdom" began to decline; in the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Dragon Kingdom formed a unified country in the form of a loose feudal system, and the territory of the Dragon Kingdom civilization basically coincided with that of Zhou Tianzi. After that, after hundreds of years of wars, the Long Kingdom formed a county system in the form of a monarchy during the Qin and Han Dynasties, and still maintained the overlap of civilization and country in space.
In the following two thousand years of history, this situation of civilization 047 overlapping with the country has never changed.
Although splits occur from time to time, the Dragon Kingdom civilization and the territory of the country are basically unified.
Throughout human history, among all civilizations in the world, the Dragon Kingdom civilization is the country of the Dragon Kingdom nation, and the country of the Dragon Kingdom nation is the Dragon Kingdom civilization. The connotations and extensions of the two are basically the same. Therefore, there is no period in the Dragon Kingdom where there is only civilization but no country.
Although the ancient tributary system of the Dragon Kingdom made the civilization circle of the Dragon Kingdom larger than the territory directly controlled by the state, a civilization and a country are still the characteristics of the Dragon Kingdom for thousands of years.
Francis, a scholar of Liberty Beacon Country, also admitted that Dragon Kingdom was the first country in the world to establish a modern country, which actually refuted Yu Lushen's statement that "Dragon Kingdom is a civilization pretending to be a country".
Civilization? And hypocrisy, the 5,000-year history attached to the Dragon Kingdom itself is the biggest symbol of civilization.
It is also the greatest wealth.
For the present day, in the cultural atmosphere formed in the West, Longguo can be said to have started all over again, playing house with guys with a city-state vision who have only a few hundred years of civilization.
Live that time again.
Among them, the cultural superiority of the Dragon Kingdom will naturally be displayed.
This is where the confidence of a civilized country lies. .
