Chapter 304: Chapter 268: Good News about the Population



Firstly, the size of the stadium, under Arthur\'s insistce, the stadium\'s capacity was increased to a maximum of fifty thousand people.

This would be a super-large-scale sports stadium, with the vue located to the north of the Capital Territory, very close to Newcastle, where there is ough large plain land to build the stadium.

In order to accommodate the Olympic Games, many vues will be built inside the sports stadium to meet the needs of the Olympic Games at that time.

About the new stadium\'s naming, after consulting Arthur\'s opinion, the Cabinet decided to name the new vue Australasia National Stadium.

After all, this Olympic Games is for the purpose of hancing Australasia\'s prestige and international influce, starting with the sports stadium to promote Australasia, also echoing the original inttion of the Olympic Games.

After the preliminary construction plan was determined, the Cabinet Governmt decided to initially allocate million Australian dollars in two years for the construction of the new stadium and invite construction companies from outside to undertake various major modules of the sports stadium.

Australasia\'s attitude towards construction companies from within and outside the country is op and inclusive.

However, the governmt\'s requiremts are strict, and if any problems arise in the construction of the Olympic vues, it will escalate into a dispute betwe the countries, and the person in charge of the construction company will be stced by the Australasian Governmt.

It is worth noting that the laws of Australasia are quite harsh, which is also a major means for the governmt to crack down on criminal cases.

After all, the common people of Australasia can eat and be clothed, and those who gage in illegal and criminal activities in Australasia are oft the incurable habitual criminals and desperate people.

These people have no use for Australasia\'s developmt and ev hinder the developmt of the country and the stability of society.

The harsh laws are designed to punish them, and the more serious cases are basically stced to death, either by hanging or by firing squad.

According to rough statistics from the security departmt, from the establishmt of Australia in 900 to the d of 909, a total of more than 3,0 death stces were imposed in the Australasia region during these t years, of which more than ,000 were brutal criminals with human lives on their hands.

After the execution of these more than 3,000 people, the crime rate in Australasia has now be reduced by more than 0 times compared to 900, and there have be fewer cases of homicide in the major cities.

With the governmt\'s announcemt of the sports stadium construction news, the construction of the sports stadium has also attracted a lot of atttion and support from a large number of Australasians.

This is not due to Arthur\'s high popularity, but because after eating and being clothed, Australasia has a lot of mood and time to do some other tertainmt.

However, at prest, there are not many tertainmt facilities in Australasia, and since the governmt has gradually started to control the sale and circulation of large weapons, civilian inferior handguns are not very realistic for hunting, so hunting, one of the few tertainmt methods, is gradually falling out of the mainstream.

But it is worth mtioning that due to the strict implemtation of the t-hour work system in major factories in Australasia, and ev the eight-hour work system in some royal factories, people have a lot of free time to waste, and under the premise that various tertainmt facilities are unlikely, making babies has become a helpless choice for a considerable number of Australasians.

In addition, the governmt has rectly be couraging childbirth, rewarding money for each child born, and suring the education and life of all childr in multiple-child families before they reach adulthood.

This has led to Australasians not being opposed to childbirth, and ev, if operated well, multiple births can create additional income for the family, equivalt to having an extra labor force earning money.

The increase of more than one hundred thousand newborn babies in Australasia every year is the best proof, which is also one of the reasons for the increasing population growth rate in Australasia.

How strong is the public\'s support for the new sports stadium? Ev before the construction of the sports stadium officially began, a large number of Australasians spontaneously wt to the planning area of the sports stadium, intding to level the land in the stadium area to facilitate future construction.

However, such actions were soon stopped, after all, although leveling the construction area is necessary before construction, there is no need to waste such precious labor.

Ar\'t these hard and tiring tasks meant to be done with the indigous people? After all, as far as Australasia is concerned, the indigous people are the least valuable, and who cares if ts of thousands or hundreds of thousands of them die every year?

Time passes quickly, and before the sports stadium officially began construction, the time had come to January 9.

Arthur takes this year\'s annual report summary meeting very seriously, after all, throughout 909, he did not properly handle political affairs, it is time to thoroughly grasp the domestic developmt and plan for the next few years.

If one looks at history, there are still a few years before the outbreak of World War I. But who can guarantee that the course of the world will develop as it did in history, and what if the war breaks out tomorrow?

It is precisely because of this attitude of being prepared in advance, Arthur decided to remind the governmt to prepare for a possible super war on the European contint in the future.

Before the Cabinet Meeting commced, Arthur announced an appointmt, appointing Hunter, the younger son of Steward Kt and the younger brother of Prime Minister Kt, the Minister of Royal Affairs, which was the last vacant seat in the Cabinet.

The appointmt was somewhat sudd, but the Cabinet members found it to be well deserved.

The position of Minister of Royal Affairs was destined to be held by Arthur\'s closest confidant, and others simply had no eligibility to compete for it.

Speaking of Arthur\'s closest confidant, Butler Kt was undoubtedly the top candidate.

However, Butler Kt already held the position of the Royal Butler and was also responsible for managing the affairs of the royal financial group.

Ev if he were giv the position of Minister of Royal Affairs, it would only make Butler Kt\'s title sound better. The actual authority and role would not change at all.

It was also reasonable for Hunter, the younger son of Butler Kt, to replace his father as the Minister of Royal Affairs.

After all, positions like royal butlers, barring any unforese circumstances, basically followed a hereditary succession system.

The family that held the title of Royal Butler were typically the monarch\'s most trusted families. Although at first glance it may seem like the position of a servant, in an absolutist monarchy like Australasia, Butler Kt\'s power was not necessarily much less than that of a cabinet member.

It was not an exaggeration to say that wh choosing betwe cabinet members and Butler Kt, Arthur would not hesitate to choose Butler Kt.

The reason was simple: Arthur could sure Butler Kt\'s absolute loyalty. It\'s no joke that if Arthur thought Butler Kt was useless, he would not hesitate to order Butler Kt to die if necessary.

As the second son of Butler Kt, while his elder brother tered politics, Hunter was destined to inherit his father\'s mantle and become the next chief royal butler.

Therefore, the position of Minister of Royal Affairs was quite suitable for Hunter as it allowed him to familiarize himself with serving Arthur in advance, and also allowed him to receive guidance from Butler Kt at any time.

As for the fact that the positions of Butler Kt, Secretary of State Kt, and Royal Affairs Minister Hunter could pottially amass ormous power and threat the monarchy or give rise to other ideas, Arthur had no worries.

Not to mtion that the tire Kt family\'s power came from the royal family. If there were no royal family, they would not have any power. Arthur trusted the loyalty of the Kt family very much.

Moreover, the Royal Security Intelligce Agcy was not to be trifled with. By now, after such a long time of developmt, if it couldn\'t control the tire royal palace\'s intelligce and protect the royal family\'s safety, th it would be time for the Director of the Royal Security Intelligce Agcy to be replaced.

Hunter also attded this Cabinet Meeting and received congratulations from the cabinet ministers.

For someone who was basically a shoo-in as the future chief royal butler, the Cabinet members still wanted to maintain a good relationship.

Although Hunter had only just come of age, by the time he serves as the Royal Chief Butler, these Cabinet members would most likely have long retired from politics.

Wh that time comes, if any issues arise, they could rely on their familiarity with Hunter to ask for help, couldn\'t they?

The Cabinet Meeting lasted the tire day, allowing Arthur to learn about the currt state of developmt in all areas of Australasia.

Ev the new appointees reported their work, allowing Arthur to better understand the currt state of judiciary and religion in Australasia.

Overall, the developmt of Australasia was still smooth and successful, and the growth in population was very promising.

By January 9, Australasia\'s total population had exceeded 8.5 million, coming closer and closer to the regional powerhouse population target of million people set by Arthur at the time.

Among them, the population of the Australian region was nearly 7 million, while the New Zealand region\'s population was a .5 million. The population of the New Guinea Colony had exceeded 50,000, specifically a 5,50 people.

Ev the least populated Australian Timor had surpassed 3,500 people. This was the result of both colonies continually implemting various immigration-attracting policies.

From the structure of the population, British immigrants accounted for 69.7% of the total population of Australasia, German population accounted for .%, Russian population accounted for .9%, and other populations accounted for 6.3%.

From the population structure, it is clear that the majority of the population in Australasia was still British immigrants, with a total number of about 5.94 million people.

The second and third most populous groups were Germans and Russians, with .03 million and .0 million people, respectively.

This shows the extt of European countries\' immigration to Australasia, with the majority of Australasia\'s population growth relying on these European immigrants.
