In order to ensure that the total population of Germany can grow to 100 million in twenty years, Germany started the ambitious Family Planning Policy. This is the first time that the population has been increased through an executive order. However, there is no doubt that it is very effective.
Almost the vast majority of couples of working age have begun to respond to the government's call and start a baby-making program. It is foreseeable that the population of Germany will grow explosively in the next few years.
In order to welcome the coming baby boom, German government must prepare early. Hospitals, kindergartens and schools all need to be constructed and prepared in advance. So that after the baby boom arrives, Germany can respond safely. After all, this large number of newborns will become the main force of Germany in the future.
The reason why Oscar set the time limit for Family Planning Policy to twenty years is precisely because he was worried that a future war might break out in twenty years. In that case, Germany must prepare in advance. The most important part is that there must be enough young men. These are the most important soldiers. Without enough soldiers, there is no way to win this battle!
Not only Germany sees the importance of population, but other countries as well. However, they have no way to subsidize families with multiple children on a large scale like Germany. This makes their population promotion plan not very effective and cannot be compared with Family Planning Policy of Germany.
Increasing the population through administrative orders will take a long time to see the effect.
In addition to increasing the strength of Germany by increasing the population, Germany also needs to work hard to digest the territory gained in World War. These include Eastern European Plain, and Western European northern France and Belgium. Eastern European Plain Needless to say, Ukraine people support German Empire. Especially after Oscar concurrently served as König of Kingdom of Ukraine, and Kingdom of Ukraine implemented a loose tax policy to allow Ukraine people to rest and recuperate, these Ukraine people supported Oscar wholeheartedly. Their current life is much better than when they were at Russia. Of course they will cherish this hard-won life. Once Germany and Buru start a war in the future, Ukraine people will definitely side with Germany. By then, it will not be difficult for Germany to arm hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops in Ukraine.
Northern France and Belgium are industrially developed areas. If these areas can be absorbed and digested, Germany's industrial strength will reach a new level. However, whether it is Belgians or French, they are full of hatred for Germany. Their country was destroyed by the Germany people. It is undoubtedly impossible for them to cooperate with Germany or even contribute to the industrial development of Germany.
However, it is undoubtedly very easy to deal with these people. In the Germany prisoner of war camp, a large number of French and Belgium prisoners of war are still detained. Those prisoners of war were related to many factory owners. He is even the son of some factory owners. Using these prisoners of war to threaten those factory owners into cooperating with Germany will undoubtedly go very smoothly. After all, even if they hate Germany, they can't let their children or themselves work in the prison camp. All factory owners, technicians, skilled workers, scientists, teachers, etc. who cooperate with Germany. Their relatives were well cared for in prison camps. This forces those factory owners to fully cooperate with Germany.
Once you start cooperating with Germany, you are on the road of no return. In the eyes of their neighbors, they have become aliens and traitors. At that time, they had no other option except relying on Germany.
Since Germany started to implement this method in Belgium and northern France, the number of factory owners cooperating with Germany has increased day by day. I believe that Germany will be able to completely absorb and digest these areas before long. By then, Germany will not have much problem catching up with United States in terms of industrial output value. It won't take long to even surpass United States. After all, after gaining a vast colony, Germany will also gain a vast market. This will further promote the industrial development of Germany.
Amiens, a three-story house on the outskirts of the city.
This is considered a relatively good community in Amiens, so most of the people living here are from Amiens' upper class. However, France suffered a disastrous defeat in the war, and the entire northern France became German territory, even the capital Paris. This directly makes these wealthy people who used to live a good life suddenly become embarrassed.
Some French, in order to survive, gradually began to cooperate with Germany people and start a new life. However, these people tend to be under a lot of pressure. Because the neighbors will point fingers at them.
Even some radical French will attack them. Fortunately, Germany's garrison at northern France and the police will help them. So that they can live in peace. Otherwise, their situation will be even more difficult.
Balk is the factory owner of a small factory owned by Amiens. His factory mainly produces leather boots. After German military occupied northern France, he asked his factory to help Germany produce military leather boots. However, he refused.
After being rejected, the Germany people did not make things difficult for them. However, a week later, they received a letter from their son.
Balk's son is named Bedok, a French Army soldier. However, he was unlucky. During the battle of Paris, he was captured by German military.
German military On the battlefield, a large number of prisoners of war were captured. After the war, these prisoners of war were not released immediately. Although French government negotiated with Germany many times, hoping that German government could release those French prisoners of war, they were all rejected. Germany is currently undergoing large-scale infrastructure construction, which requires a lot of manpower. If you recruit workers, it will increase the cost a lot. If these prisoners of war are used, the cost will drop a lot. Anyway, these prisoners of war have no human rights at all, they are just used as coolies.
Balk's son, Bedok, worked on a highway construction site. Not only did he have to do heavy physical labor every day, but he also had to eat hard. He also had to be beaten and scolded by the supervisor. He once thought he was going to die. After learning that he could write letters to his family, Bedok immediately wrote to his family asking for help.
Therefore, for the sake of his son's life, Balk could only choose to cooperate with Germany people.
