The Rise of Australasia

Youth is the strength of a country, and this is not just an empty phrase. Only when the knowledge level of these university students meets the needs of Australasia’s development can the country’s development proceed steadily, rather than stagnating.

Basically, every university student has the opportunity to intern and study in research labs, with the only difference being the number of opportunities they have.

Generally speaking, there is no shortage of university students who make progress in these internships and study opportunities, but there are also students who just get by without making much effort.

Arthur does not have the luxury of expecting every university student to be trained into top talent, after all, the country also needs some middle and lower level talent, right?

Among all the research projects in the Royal Science Academy, Arthur pays more attention to, or rather places the most emphasis on, the research in the nuclear field and missile rocket projects.

As the most powerful weapons of later generations and the most powerful conventional weapons, nuclear weapons and missiles have unquestionable deterrence against foreign threats and are absolutely the trump card of a country.

Having these two types of weapons, the advantage of human power is no longer an advantage, and the shortcomings of human power are no longer flaws.

Of course, this is only in terms of warfare. Human power is still very helpful for the development of the economy and society. After all, compared to countries with a large population, countries with a smaller population will face greater difficulty in development.

Explore new worlds at empire

The power of nuclear weapons is undoubtedly immense. As a taboo weapon capable of causing hundreds of thousands or even millions of casualties in an instant, it has only been used a few times in later generations, and always against the same country.

But the achievements demonstrated by these few applications of nuclear weapons have already made all countries in the world crazy about them, with major powers researching nuclear weapons at all costs.

The research on missiles and rockets is also very important for national development. Under the premise of not being able to use nuclear weapons, missiles become a country’s most powerful weapon, while also serving as one of the carriers for nuclear weapons.

In later generations, there was a wide variety of nuclear weapon delivery methods, including airplanes, warships, submarines, missiles, and so on.

If we talk about the most powerful deterrents, it would have to be submarines and missiles.

As submarines have excellent concealment, they can deliver a devastating surprise attack, and nuclear submarines are one of the main directions of submarine development in later generations.

Meanwhile, missiles are the most direct means of nuclear weapon delivery, with intercontinental missiles covering the entire globe and greatly increasing the influence of nations possessing nuclear weapons and intercontinental missiles.

After all, these are the true world-covering superweapons that not many countries can control even 100 years later.

Speaking of which, we cannot help but comment once again on the advancement of technology due to war.

Before World War I, the development of technology was actually quite slow. World War I made airplanes and tanks the most advanced weapons, while World War II not only developed more advanced airplanes and tanks but also missiles and nuclear weapons.

Since then, during the Cold War confrontation, spacecraft, manned rockets, and nuclear-powered submarines have been developed, realizing the dream of landing on the moon that mankind has had for thousands of years - something that people decades earlier would have never dared to imagine.

If it were not for the two world wars, human technology would still advance, but it would not be as exaggerated as it was in later generations.

In order not to fall behind other countries, the huge investments made by countries in military technology were a significant factor in dragging them down during wartime.

Not to mention the hundreds of billions of US dollars spent annually on war expenses by the European powers, especially Britain, France, and Germany, during World War I - an expenditure that even Australasia cannot currently afford.

However, the damage caused to these countries by such massive spending is quite evident, which is also the reason why Australasia can currently surpass France in terms of industry.

Even if it were not for the huge gap in population, there might not be a clear answer as to whether the overall strength of Australasia and France is stronger or weaker.
