1369. Financial collapse
The time has entered April of 20BBY.
As the war has been going on for two years and is entering its third year, the Federation of Independent Galaxies has begun to show signs of defeat, retreating steadily on almost every front.
Except for some developed planets that are still struggling, the Confederacy of Independent Galaxies has almost lost the entire Central Star Region.
Originally, in the battle between the Rendili galaxy and the Semirs galaxy, a large number of Republic fleets were pinned down and wiped out. However, the speaker Schiff Palpatine directly deprived the local defense fleet of all planets, and the Republic gained one more Although the quality is not very good, but the fleet is very scary.
Under the attack of this fleet, the planets Mingban and Rusan fell one after another, and the flames of war began to approach the defense line set up by General Grievous on the planet Salukami.
At the same time, on the ground battlefields of these countless planets, cruel battles are also starting.
The huge number of robot legions left on these planets by the Confederation of Independent Galaxies kept preventing the advance of the Republican Army, but at this time, because of the emergence of genetic weapons, the Republic had to recall all the clone troops. Therefore, on the battlefields of these planets, the Republic can only rely on the precise bombing of a large number of small and medium warships to fight.
Although these small and medium-sized spacecraft will not cause damage to the planet's environment, they still deal a devastating blow to the planet's surface facilities. On these planets captured by the Republic, the industrial base and the people's livelihood foundation have been severely damaged.
The result of this is that many planets are further alienated from the Galactic Republic. Even if they are forced by the situation, they have to welcome the arrival of the Republic Fleet and claim that they have been liberated from the tyranny of separatism. The hatred of the Republic is no less than that of the Federation of Independent Galaxies.
That's right, the role played by the Confederation of Independent Galaxies in this war has never been positive. Even with the reorganization of the Confederation of Independent Galaxies, the money-gathering and exploitation of those corporate giants will be less unscrupulous, but in order to continue the war, the Independent The Confederation of Galaxies is still constantly exploiting these planets, and almost all their wealth and output value have been searched clean.
And now the extremely brutal offensive of the Galactic Republic has also planted the seeds of chaos within the Milky Way.
At the same time, the performance of the natural person army of the Galactic Republic on the battlefield can be described as very crotch, and this kind of crotch is at the price of blood!
In this new round of counterattacks by the Republic, more than 60 million natural soldiers were killed in just one month! The number of wounded soldiers has exceeded 100 million! The pensions brought by these dead and injured soldiers are even more astronomical, making the Galactic Republic's finances even worse.
The Interplanetary Banking Association (S) reorganized with Rush Clovis as the chief executive with Scipio planet as the core is also facing a financial emptiness at the moment. There is no way, Rush-Clovis can only urgently issue 50 trillion credits of currency, and because there are not so many rare alloys, these currencies are all encrypted banknotes.
These banknotes are called "Republic Coins" and are backed by the credit of the Galactic Republic.
That's right, it's a credit currency! Unlike the gold standard, food standard and other currencies that appeared before the advent of the interstellar era, this kind of credit currency is equivalent to no guarantee, and the value of the currency is determined entirely by the conscience and credit of the Galactic Republic.
But it has come to the end, looking up, every road is full of despair in the Galactic Republic, where does the conscience come from? Where does the credit come from?
And those families who have lost their loved ones, because in the end, they only get these banknotes that they can't tell whether they have value, and many places refuse to accept these banknotes at all. These desperate people had no choice but to take to the streets one after another, to the administrative center of the planet where they were located, to hold protest demonstrations, and even armed riots.
For a time, various uprisings and rebellions occurred one after another within the scope of the Galactic Republic.
The same happens with the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
Count Dooku had already broken up with Darth Sidious by this time
, he has already managed the Confederation of Independent Galaxies as his important power and political capital.
It's different from when he was attached to Darth Sidious before, because at that time he thought he had a way out, and it didn't matter what happened to the Confederacy, as long as he could assist Sidious to complete the plan. But now, he must ensure victory in this war.
In order to decouple the economy of the Confederation of Independent Galaxies from those corporate giants and gain more independence, Count Dooku has done a lot of work, including finding ways to open the Confederation's own national bank and nationalize many industrial planets.
But it is easier said than done, even if the commercial guild has now been split and merged, none of the remaining corporate giants is fuel-efficient. Contradictions at the economic and political levels have gradually begun to emerge.
And what's more serious is that the Techno Union has already started to think about returning to the Galactic Republic.
As part of his plan to bring these corporate giants to their knees, General Grievous sent off the main fleet of the Confederation of Independent Systems, mainly older warships including the Generosity-class Communication Frigate and the Disobedient-class light destroyer, at the Battle of Deron For the most part, the new generation navy of the Confederation of Independent Galaxy is now in the process of being formed.
But brand new warships are more powerful and advanced, but they are also more expensive. Where do these costs come from? Naturally, it was passed on to the planets that joined the confederation.
Facing the almost completely unreasonable exploitation and plunder of the Confederation of Independent Galaxies, there were also riots and uprisings within the Confederation, and no amount of suppression could be suppressed.
Relatively speaking, the situation within the jurisdiction of the Fourth Civilization is much better. But the main reason for this is the remoteness of the Fourth Civilization, weak industrial foundation, and sparse population... However, with the successful rebellion of the Lundili Interstellar Power Company, the population of the Fourth Civilization suddenly increased by a full 600 billion. and a large number of industrial facilities.
In order for these populations and industrial facilities to function~www.novelbuddy.com~Daphne Clement, Minister of the Interior of the Fourth Civilization, suddenly found that his side had become a bottomless pit at some point.
This bottomless pit devours countless resources, money, population, and job opportunities. The greatly increased demand for resources overwhelms the resource system of the Fourth Civilization, and if those extra factories and population are left idle, it will also cost The more resources to feed them, the less likely it is to do so.
The main reason why the economy of the fourth civilization has not collapsed is because the fourth civilization possesses a large amount of high-tech equipment far surpassing the navy of the Galactic Republic, allowing them to defend their territory without maintaining a huge fleet.
For example, the existence of the Titan battleship Xuanwu made the Galactic Republic dare not take the initiative to attack the Eriadu galaxy, the transportation hub, even if it assembled three times its fleet.
During this 20BBY period, the consequences of the war began to appear, and the out-of-control war has overwhelmed both sides.
And in order to transfer part of the internal conflicts through war before their own collapse, the Galactic Republic, the Confederacy of Independent Galaxies and the Fourth Civilization all chose by coincidence...
accelerate!
