MTL - African Entrepreneurship Records-Chapter 232 Districts and provinces

  Chapter 232 Trial districts and provinces

  After discussion, the high-level leaders of the East African Kingdom decided to set up provinces in the East African Kingdom, following the example of Europe, and the original region will not be mentioned anymore.

   According to factors such as terrain, economy, environment, and national defense needs, the kingdom's administrative regions were divided, and finally a rough map was made.

   "The northern province of Somalia should be demarcated along the river." An official suggested.

   "Well! This is not good. It is better for this province to cross the river."

   As he spoke, Felix took a pen and drew a line between the Juba River and the Shabelle River.

   "In this way, the entire Shabelle River Basin, that is, the oases on the banks of the river, can provide military rations to the north without dispatching from the south, and the productivity of the land north of the Shabelle River will definitely not work."

   "Well, it makes sense, next." King Constantine said.

   "Is Mogadishu the provincial capital?"

   "Mogadishu is close to the sea, its geographical location is very dangerous, and it is too far from the inland. It is definitely not the provincial capital. Beledwin on the south bank of the Shabelle River is pretty good."

   "I have no objection to Beledweyne as the provincial capital, but a separate military town should be set up in the northwest to deal with potential threats in the northwest corner. Both Mogadishu and Beledweyne are too far away from here."

   "Then choose Dire Dawa Village! This location is just at the northern foot of the mountain, and it is also an important military location."

"agree."

   "How to choose the provincial capital of the Juba River Basin?"

   "Like the Northern Province, a port and an inland city serve as the provincial capital. Although Kismaayo is more economically developed, it is too far to the east like Mogadishu and cannot radiate inland."

   "Then choose Baidabo Town!"

"agree."

"I have a suggestion. Regarding the province of South Salzburg, the forces on Lake Malawi should be concentrated in the port of Karonga, and the Lake Malawi area should be managed in a unified manner, so as to facilitate wartime dispatch, cooperate with the army's operations, and at the same time It is conducive to preventing the enemy from going up by the help of Lake Malawi."

   "Yes, then merge the territory of the former Kingdom of Malawi into South Salzburg Province, and set up a sub-center of river and lake troops in Karonga."

  …

   May 23, 1870.

  After a while of discussion and analysis by the East African government, the Kingdom of East Africa finally made the following administrative division adjustments:

   Tropical desert climate zone.

  1, Turkana Province (Omorat, the provincial capital.). A province geographically centered on Lake Turkana.

2. Northern Province (the capital of Beledween, the port of Mogadishu, the military town of Dire Dawa - dealing with British Somaliland and the French Djibouti colony, as well as the Abyssinian Empire.), the northernmost province, Beled The text is the city along the Shabelle River.

  3, Juba Province (provincial capital Baidabo, Kismayo Port.) Baidabo - city along the Juba River, transportation and military points.

  Because of the tropical desert climate, these three provinces are all large in size, but only Turkana Province has considerable arable land and water sources.

  The three major regions of the original Southern Kenya region changed.

  1, Eastern Province (Mombasa, the capital of the province.) The former Eastern Kenya region, joined the northern part of the land, and the area expanded.

  2, South Prussia Province (Nairobi, the provincial capital.) Formerly Central Kenya.

  3, East Great Lakes Province (Kisumu, capital of the province.) Formerly Western Kenya.

  The original Tanzania region has changed.

  1, Coastal Province (Tanga Port, the capital of the province.) Originally located in Binhai District.

  2, Central Province (the first town in the capital, the two ports of Bagamoyo and Dar es Salaam.) Incorporated into the land of the original central coastal area.

3. Sea Lake Province (the provincial capital Xinyuan City, Mtwara Port, Ron Roda, Songgaia.) is the merger of the former East Malawi Lake District and the Lower Coastal District. The new provincial capital is selected in Ron Roda and Xinyuan City between Songgai and A.

4. South Salzburg Province (the provincial capital Mbeya, the port of Lake Karonga, including the Katanga Plateau and the coast of Lake Malawi.) The original upper Lake Malawi area expanded and was renamed because of its important geographical location South Salzburg.

  5, Plateau Province (the provincial capital Dodoma City), formerly the central plateau area.

  6, Kilimanjaro Province (provincial capital Arusha City), formerly the northern plateau area, the capital was moved from Karatu to Arusha.

  7, South Great Lakes Province (provincial capital Mwanza City.) Incorporated into part of the Prairie area.

  8, Hohenzollern Province (Kigoma City, the capital of the province), formerly the Lake Soren area. Incorporated into part of the Prairie area.

  Administration around the rest of the Great Lakes region (almost unchanged).

  1, Western Great Lakes Province (The provincial capital is Bujumbura.)

  2, North Great Lakes Province (Kampala, the provincial capital.)

  Western tropical rainforest area.

  1, Mitumba Province (Kinderu City, the capital of the province.) Tropical rain forest and part of the tropical grassland climate.

  2, Hesse Province (Kisangani, the provincial capital.) Tropical rainforest climate.

  Zambia and Katanga Plateau Regional Administrative Division.

  1, West Katanga Province (the provincial capital Lubumbashi.)

  2, Eastern Katanga Province (The provincial capital Kazenbe City.)

  3, Western Plateau Province (Ndola, the provincial capital.)

  4, Western Province (Mongu City, the provincial capital.)

  5, Southern Frontier Province (provincial capital Lusaka.)

  6, Waronga Province (Bos, the provincial capital.)

  Two islands.

  1, Pemba Island (New Hamburg.)

  2, Mafia Island (Mafia City.)

  Subordinate countries:

  The Sultanate of Zanzibar has a garrison.

  A total of 24 provinces, 26 provincial-level administrative regions, and 1 dependent country.

  ▼ (Administrative division map of the Kingdom of East Africa)

   This time, the administrative division of the Prairie was divided, and its capital, Tabora, was merged into the South Great Lakes Province, becoming the second largest city in the province after Mwanza.

The northwestern shores of Lake Malawi are included in the province of South Salzburg. The capital of the province is still Mbeya, and Karonga is still the second largest city as a lake port. The province of Würtzburg straddles the East African plateau and the Katanga plateau, and its status as a transportation hub has been further strengthened.

   Established the unique status of the two islands of Pemba Island and Mafia Island, and at the same time clarified the status of the sultanate of Zanzibar as a subsidiary state.

  The newly established Kilimanjaro Province replaced the original northern plateau area, and the capital was also moved from Karatu to Arusha, which has a more geographical advantage (it is closer to the ports of Tanga and Mombasa, and the terrain is more open and flat.)

  The Lower Coastal District merged with the East Malawi Lake District to form a new Maritime Lake Province. The provincial capital was located in Xinyuan City (formerly known as Tongdulu Village) between the former Songgaia and Ron Roda.

  At the same time, some places have adopted German-colored names, mainly including the city of Neuhamburg, South Salzburg, South Prussia, Hesse, Hohenzollern, etc.

  The special provinces set up in East Africa for national defense are mainly South Salzburg Province, Mar-a-Lago Province, and Northern Province. They mainly deal with other Western colonial forces, and there is no demand for areas bordering indigenous peoples.

In this change of administrative division, the East African government will establish a governing body in the newly occupied area. At the same time, in Zambia and other regions, these indigenous people will be distinguished, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled will be exiled. Supplement the shortage of "labor" in the east.
